Community Q&A
- QuestionHow do I find my phone number on a new phone?
Alfonso.is.writeCommunity AnswerPhones don't come with their own phone number. You have to subscribe to a SIM provider in your country/state/province and purchase a plan to receive a SIM that you will insert in your phone. With the SIM comes your mobile data and phone number. - QuestionI cannot find my PUK and my SIM card code. I have three more chances before it will be blocked. What can I do?
TD96Community AnswerYour PUK code is the passcode of your SIM Card. Either go to the carrier's (T-Mobile, AT&T or Verizon) store or try to find the SIM's packaging. Most likely it will be on the back.
