Got the S8+ but can't use it.. Thanks Bestbuy

[dt81]

Just picked up the phone... Get home to activate it.. Won't work.. Call Verizon, they said best buy set my activation date to the 26th.. Wtf?! Ok..i call best buy mobile only to get hung up every damn time with "your call is having technical difficulties, try at another time".... Seriously pissed off! They took the money out of my account with no problem... I hate this. Should have gone through Verizon.. Only because I didn't want to wait for shipping.. That back fired.

So this was a new line or new account then? Because I ordered from Samsung and as alwasy just popped in my SIM card and within seconds was in business.

I'm pretty sure it's something Verizon can correct.

Pop in the sim card from. Your previous phone.

I originally had an issue with activating my phone and decided to switch out the sim card and it worked ?

Good luck !

That is unfortunate and frustrating, for sure! Hope you get everything sorted soon! Keep us posted!

Well, Verizon sent me back to best buy, best buy sent me back to Verizon.. I was about to return it and just go through Verizon... But I ended up switching Sims and am able to use it. Haven't really had much time to play with it but I will later today.. Ilk never go through best buy mobile again though. Horrible service..
