Got a new SIM card. Tried to reactivate. Won’t take payment. Made a payment with the 611 option. Now says I have $15.00. Tried to reactivate. Still wants a payment even though the balance is zero.
phone does not work even though shows public Mobil and data options,
please any advice!

@Gillhunn Just add $1 to your account and restart your phone. Sometime it helps get a suspended account back up and running.

@Gillhunn If you added $15 to your balance with vouchers and now it is reporting a balance of zero it means it processed your re-activation.
Power down your phone remove the sim, wait 15 minutes re-insert your sim and power up does your phone work? If not, then you need to purchase a $5 voucher and add it to your account. Once that is done restart you phone does it work? If not notify the moderator team.
While you are waiting for the moderator to respond, you may try the lost/stolen phone trick:
To report your phone stolen. Login to your selfserve account. Choose Plans and Add-ons tab. Choose the Lost/Stolen Phone tab. Choose Suspend Service tab. Wait 15 minutes. Report your phone found. Re-start you phone
