For Nokia phone models: When your TRACFONE is turned on you may receive the message "SIM card registration failed" because your phone has not yet been activated. Disregard this message and clear the display by pressing the navigation key, which is the button below the display.
For Motorola phone models: When your TRACFONE is turned on you may receive the message "Unregistered SIM or No Service" because your phone has not yet been activated. Disregard this message. It will disappear once your phone is active.
If the message is still displayed after 3-4 hours, please call the Customer Care Center at 1-800-867-7183 or go here to activate online!
