When I Added My $30 Card, Now All I Can Do Is Make Calls, Not Receive Calls, Why

Is the verizon network down? All my family has verizon and I can call them, but they can't call me.... I was calling my daughter who has verizon and when she answered, a straight talk voice came on the line, telling me how many minutes I had left, and cutting our conversation off, why?

I Know the Answer!

 i have had a similar problem. and i ended up calling the 800 number and they had to reprogram my phone. you can first try dialing #22890 and see if that fixes it.

try dialing *22890. straighttalk's "over the air programming" which will "reprogram" your phone instantly for you fixing any issues making/receiving calls or texts. If this does not work, call the 1-877-430-2355 from a phone OTHER than the one having problems.
