You purchase a Net 10 phone and either call Net10 at 1-877-836-2368 from a land line or go online to Net10.com to activate your phone. It is real easy to activate your phone, you will have to put some numbers into the “Code Entry Mode” section of your phone. The directions are simple and easy to follow online or on the phone.
When you activate a new or refurbished phone that you purchased from Net10 Wireless you will get 60 days of service and 300 Minutes upon activation.
Before your card expires or before you run out of minutes phone you need to add another card to keep your service active. You can stack your cards–add more than one at a time– and they will not run concurrently. If you put three 300 minute 60 day cards on your phone you will get 900 minutes and 180 days. With many other prepaid phone companies you would still only get 60 days.

I have had Net 10 for a few months now and am very satisfied. For someone like me who doesn’t use there cell phone every second of the day- It is a way to not be stuck in a giant contract where I am paying way more than I should be paying. I got the Samsung T201G which is great and really don’t have any complaints about Net10. I pay 15 dollars a month for 150 minutes and can add on more whenever I desire. I like Net 10 and their coverage is very broad…….For now I recommend them to everybody.
If your looking to save money, switching from a contract phone to prepaid can do it. You can go from around 80 a month down to 30 or 35. Net10 is great for those who use probably use around 200 minutes or under a month. For users that pile the minutes up might want to look at tracfone or straight talk as other options.
I bought the Net10 300G phone for my 10 year old and we’re both very happy with the phone and the service. It’s a great starter phone..as stated here, all Net10 phones comes with 300 min. and 2 months of service upon activation so I basically got the phone for free. NO contract = no fees for early termination so if my little one mishave, I’ll just cancel the service and it won’t cost me a thing!
Net10 now works even better thanks to the fact that ATT just bought T-mobile. Why, you may ask? Because Net10 uses BOTH ATT and Verizon towers to broadcast signal, which means that Net10 now has access to the ATT, Verizon, AND T-Mobile towers. You really can’t escape Net10′s service area if you TRIED lol.
