Used/remaining minutes on $35 prepaid plan

Phone: LG Revere
This phone can display balance information as:
"Balance: $104.10"  (remaining balance)
"PMT Date: 6/15/14" (date that funds expire)
This worked well on my old plan since text msgs cost 10 cents & calls were 30 cents or 15 cents/min.  This week I switched to the $35 prepaid plan giving me 500 anytime minutes with unlimited text & 500 MB of data for 30 days.
1. My online account page shows my balance is $69.10 which accounts for the $35 payment for the first 30 days of the plan but the Revere's balance display still shows the $104.10 amount.   Why isn't the phone's display accurately updated?  Following a Customer Service suggestion, I did the *228 & pressed 1 to reprogram the phone.  It made no difference.
2.  Is there an easy way to check the minutes remaining without calling Customer Service?  #MIN only tells me that my balance is $69.10 (and sends me a text with that info) but doesn't tell me that I have 434 minutes remaining.  The Customer Service rep told me that, but I couldn't find this total the VZW website.  The account usage page lists every call, text, etc. but unless I manually add up the duration of each call, I can't find out how many of those 500 minutes have been used this month.  Is this information somewhere else?

    Hi there Gipsonsb!
That's a fantastic question.  I would highly recommend contacting our Prepaid department.  They're available just for you 24/7.  You can reach them by calling 888-294-6804.
Thank you!

  • Account blocked, cannot use remaining minutes (exp...

    I cancelled a subscription before the renewal period started. Given that I did not receive an automatic refund, I started a claim with paypal. 1 minute after, my Skype account was blocked (I wish Skype were as fast providing refunds as  it's blocking accounts.) I still have 55 minutes left in the subscription that I haven't been able to use so far , and will likely expire today. I have contacted Skype support, but so far I have not received any answer. My requests are as follows:
    1. Have my account unblocked, and the subscription extended by the number of dates the account has been blocked, so that I can use the 55 minutes remaining in my subscription.
    2. Get a refund for the subscription renewal, and when this happens I'll close the claim with paypal. 

    cancelling a subscription and requesting for a refund are two entirely different actions.  This means that when you cancel a subscription, it will only stop the reoccurring payment, but doesn't mean that you will automatically get refunds for your current subscription.
    Yet, it is indeed correct that you need to contact customer support regarding this matter, afaik they usually respond within 24 hours.

  • Prepaid plan and expiration

    Quick questions. I am currently using FiveSpot WIFI device under prepaid plan.
    If I add $100 to my account right now, can I use my device without refill at the end of this year?
    If I add $100 to my account right now, but I do not use my device for more than 2 to 3 months, do I lose my telephone number and need to pay re-activation fee when utilizing the device?

    If I add $100 to my account right now, can I use my device without refill at the end of this year?As long as you still have money in your accuont you will not have to refill your account until the year is up.
    If I add $100 to my account right now, but I do not use my device for more than 2 to 3 months, do I lose my telephone number and need to pay re-activation fee when utilizing the device?  The way I read the terms it said you had to make a cell phone voice call once in 6 months in order to keep the service. So I would take that to mean as long as I make a call for 1 minute  every 60 days your account would stay active as long as there is money in the account . That is the way it is listed in the aggreement terms.  I would double check this with customer service and the next day call customer service again and see if you get the same answer

  • ZTE Salute on $50 unlimited prepaid plan?

    Hello, can the ZTE Salute be used for the $50 unlimited prepaid plan, and how old do you have to be to activate a prepaid plan? I have a cousin who wants a prepaid plan from Verizon.
    >Subject line was edited for privacy per the TOS<
    Message was edited by: Verizon Moderator

    Yes, the ZTE Salute is a basic phone and can be used on the $50 unlimited monthly pre-paid plan. 
    To activate a phone or open an account, you need to be 18 and legally able to sign the agreement -
    "When you accept, you're representing that you are at least 18 years old and are legally able to accept an agreement. "

  • Change my new prepaid plan or start over?

    My ultimate goal is to get an LG Cosmos on $35 prepaid plan.
    I took a gamble an bought a LG env3 because it is an older phone with 3mp camera and flash. I read that people would buy this phone and then call to cancel the data plan. Perhaps these people's situations were different because this information was within the last year or so. I was looking to use it on the $35 prepaid plan. However, things have changed so the only option was a $60 monthly plan with 2gb data. This plan is better suited for the new smartphones you can get on prepaid. If I wanted that I would have got that instead.
    So I have an older phone with less capabilities to take advantage of today's standard offerings yet paying for the same. I don't want to pay for it anyways.
    I have already paid for one month at $60. I activated July 19th. Can I buy an LG Cosmos prepaid version (Amazon, eBay [Verizon doesnt appear to let you buy the phone by itself) and activate now and then will that $60 I spent go towards changing my plan to $35 monthly? Or I am stuck with this month's service under the $60 and need to wait til end of month? Or should I just let my service cancel after month and start over with a LG Cosmo prepaid purchase account through Verizion store?
    I am kind of afraid to take a risk with a phone off amazon to activate on this account. Stories of people getting phones that need to wait 6 months... I feel more comfortable with a phone from verizon directly and any warranty benefits that entails.
    If I have to get a new number it is not a big deal.

    Close All Open Apps... Sign Out of your Account... Perform a Reset (nothing will be lost) and then sign In using His ID.
    Reset
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.

  • Can i still use pay as you go plan on a smartphone prepaid plan?

    can i still use pay as you go plan on a smartphone prepaid plan?

    Yes you can. However, 4G smartphones cannot be activated on prepaid. 3G devices have 3 different available plans. Verizon has an exclusive plan with Walmart which consists of unlimited talk and text with a 1GB for $50. The other 2 plans are unlimited talk and text with 2GB for $60 or 4GB for $70

  • Using iphone 5 with att prepaid go phone plan will it work?

    will i be able to use the iphone 5 with the att go phone prepaid plan?

    And the OP was specifically asking about an iPhone 5.
    What's unclear is if AT&T is including their HSPA+ network as "4G" It is technically 4G according to th ITU and they market it that way.
    They do specify that pre-paid data is for feature phones only. Not smartphones of any type. From the same document:
    Data Services for Smartphones
    To use data services, smartphone users must be on a monthly rate plan and purchase a data feature package. Data Pay Per Use is not available with smartphones on any GoPhone rate plan.
    It may be possible, but if they catch you, and they eventually will, they will shut charge you for it and/or shut down the account.

    I bought a 4G SIM activation kit on the advice of a CS rep, who said I could change out the SIM card on my Verizon Droid X (currently in use with a customer loyalty plan) and switch it to a prepaid plan. But now it appears there is no SIM card to switch out. Google search finds several others have asked that question and the Droid X doesn't have a SIM card, apparently. But, the 4G SIM activation kit "Compatibility" tab claims that it is compatible with the Droid X, so what is the real story here? Do I have to send this kit back to you?

    No. Call Apple Care and give them the serial number. They may be able to tell you who it is locked to.

    moving away from BB to Windows phone. I am currently on prepaid. Can I use a HTC 8X on a prepaid plan?

    No because the 8X by HTC is a 4G LTE smartphone. The prepaid plans are compatible with 3G only devices.

  • HT1937 Can i use my unlocked Sprint iphone 4s on AT&T's $25 prepaid plan?

    Can my unlocked Sprint iPhone 4s be used on AT&T's $25 prepaid plan? I recently opted out of my two year contract. When I plugged in the AT&T gophone mini sim to activate it, it says "sim not valid" and says only compatible sim cards from a supported carrier may be used to activate the phone. Please help!

    The only way to use a Sprint CDMA phone with Verizon's CDMA network would be to entice Verizon to reflash the firmware on you phone.  And they will not do that, for anyone with any phone - you must purchase a Verizon phone to use the Verizon network.
    You cannot use your CDMA Sprint phone with AT&T because AT&T does not operate a CDMA network.  They use GSM, which is a different network than CDMA.

  • HT1937 I used to have verizon as my phone carrier. But I don't no more. It's been more 5 months that I don't. I want to start using my iPhone 4 with a prepaid plan. Is that possible. Verizon said I'm not longer listed as their customer.

    Verizon offers prepaid service on the iPhone 4. Go into your local Verizon Store with your phone. I'm sure they'll be happy to set you up with service.
