I am trying to activate my $30 activation kit purchased from Warlmart online. I am trying to activate it with a Motorola phone I purchased from Motorola directly. The activation card says "Initial $30 value". I went through the activation process (including transferring my number from a different provider), and got to the "Fund your account" page. But here I got stuck. It's asking me for a refill PIN. There is nothing on the activation card that clearly indicates a PIN as far as I can see. I tried all the codes on the activation card, but they've all been rejected ("The refill card PIN is invalid. Please check your entry and try again."). Do I need to get the PIN separately form Walmart? Or what am I missing? Is the $30 automatically added to my account for the first month? Then why am I being asked to fund my account? It seems like I'm getting data service on the phone, but can't make calls yet, which may be because the number transfer has not been completed yet.
If anyone could clarify this funding issue, I'd really appreciate it. Also, if I set up auto pay, will I automatically stay on the $30/mo plan?
Thanks!
