Using a prepaid phone is an ideal alternative if you are looking for mobile phone service without the hassle of committing to a long-term mobile service contract. Apart from the standard cell phone services such as local and international calling and text messaging, there are other more specific features that a user can choose with prepaid phone service. While the exact steps in setting up a prepaid phone depend on the mobile network you’re using, the general steps mainly involve activation of the prepaid account. Whether using an old phone or a new phone that comes with the new prepaid kit, remove the phone’s battery and write down the IMEI (International Mobile Equipment Identity) number of the phone printed inside its battery compartment. You need this for the activation of the prepaid service. Tips Warnings Writer Bio
