Failed Prepaid Card Activation with T-mobile number

I purchased the $300 12-month student plan. But after receiving the SIM from the mail and after inserting it into my phone, I couldn't activate my account since it is "suspended" or "inactive". However the SIM card is already activated. But for your information, I am a new att customer, I am transferring a number from T-mobile, and I haven't paid the $300 since I couldn't create an account to add funds. So what should I do? I have been to an att store but they said they couldn't help me with prepaid accounts. 

Should I cancel my transfer request and re-register the same plan?

Hi , we are here to help you with activating your $300/12month Prepaid plan!

 

The $300/12-month plan requires 300 upfront payment and covers twelve 30-day cycles. Plan renews every 30 days for 12 renewal periods. The $300 advance payment is non-refundable in whole or in part. Next service payment is usually due at 11:59 p.m CT on the 360th day. This plan is not eligible for AutoPay discount.

 

Learn how to pay your AT&T Prepaid amount due or how to use PayPal to make an AT&T Prepaid payment. For port in, it may take up to 5 business days to transfer your number to us if this is done online/over the phone and 1-3 business hours if done at the store.

 

For additional inquiries regarding your Port in contact our Port Activation Center at 866.895.1097.

Hi AT&T

thanks for the response. However I am not able to prepay for my SIM card since I can’t even create or sign in to a AT&T prepaid account. When I request a password for my number, the verification key never comes through to my sms messages. I want to pay the 300 dollars but I just can’t.
