How do I begin getting setup on PagePlus Cellular?
This page is designed to be informative & thorough. If you are new to PPC, reading this will probably help you incredibly.
STEP 1: You need a CDMA phone to activate.
Typically "CDMA" Wireless pre-owned certified handsets will be eligible for activation on the PagePlus network, for Talk and Standard Text messaging(sms). Due to the software loaded into the handsets, PagePlus will not guarantee that the advanced features such as picture messaging(mms), Data services(web), and BREW(app. store/web) will work correctly on the device.
For best results, please use a PagePlus approved handset. A tri-mode or dual band phone will be best as these phones are able to use both regular cellular networks and PCS networks.
If you are porting over from Verizon or Sprint, usually you can bring your current Sprint or Verizon Post-Paid device with you. Please understand that porting from Sprint or Verizon will cause you to get charged an Early Termination Fee if you are still under contract.
If you have any questions about whether your chosen phone has a "clear/clean esn", you can contact Verizon at 800-922-0204 to have the ESN checked for clearance. Verizon can not check Sprint ESN/MEID'S. I can do this for you also.
Currently Unsupported Phones
New Retail-Packed Prepaid Devices
(must be used for 6 months on "their" network. Phones manufactured for another "big" pre-paid network!)

All Palm Treo Devices

HTC VX5800
Audiovox PPC-6700

STEP 2: Make a decision - do you want a NEW NUMBER or do you want to PORT a number in?
You need to decide if you are going to want a NEW PHONE NUMBER from PagePlus or if you want to PORT a phone number into PagePlus from another carrier.
If you want to get a new phone number, then you want to order a NEW ACTIVATION from PPC or from another line dealer.
If you want to port a number in, then you want to START A NEW PORT through PPC or through another online dealer.
STEP 3: Pick a plan and purchase a PIN.
Once you have gotten your phone picked out, activated it with a new number or ported your existing number in from another carrier, you need to pick a plan.
All phones by default when activated start on the Standard Plan, which is also called the Pay-As-You-Go Plan. All new activations will receive a $2.00 Activation Credit from a dealer & $0 from Page Plus as of Tuesday, April 20th 2010. Until then it will continue to be the $6/60 minutes. So you can try out the service with this free credit.
The $2 credit equals 20 minutes = $0.10 a minute for talk, $0.08 per text(SMS) sent or received and $0.25+data for picture messaging(MMS).
Standard Plan Minutes range from 4 cents to 10 cents per minute, depending upon the denomination of the refill card that you choose to purchase.
By far, two of our most popular plans are the:
Unlimited Talk & Text Plan for $39.95/mo
Talk n Text 1200 Plan for $29.95/mo
I hope this helps you in getting started with PagePlus Cellular. Another suggestion that I like to throw out to customers is: You may wish to get to know, and establish a relationship with, an online dealer. Sometimes PPC can be very hard to reach and, therefore, by having a dealer "on your side" and "familiar with your needs", you can avoid a lot of frustration by contacting your dealer instead of PPC directly.
