I was on hour 30... waiting for my verizon # to be ported.. waiting waiting.. I couldnt even start over from scratch on my iphone, until the email told me it possibly failed...

anyway... I went to the AT&T store in Manhattan 3-4 times the last few days for all sorts of issues and questions... and this last time (about 30 minutes ago.. I asked them to give me a NEW SIM card..)

they didnt understand, but they gave me a brand new one for $0 and filled out a $0 receipt for it through the register

I came home, put the new sim card in my phone... i went through activation process again but instead chose NOT to port.. but activate a new AT&T account, with NEW number..

in 3 minutes literally.. i have my iphone working, syncing, surfing web on the new #.. i am on hold with at&t now.. to port the number over, the right way... now that the iphone is working and able on their network
