How to activate phone with pre-paid card, no phone number yet
I have a new flip phone and want to activate it. I also already have a pre-paid card. All the options want me to pay for a plan, and don't give the option to put in the numbers on the prepaid card. The prepaid card wants the phone number, but the phone isn't yet activated, so I don't have one. How do I get out of this catch-22?
The directions on the phone said to put in *activation code*zip code*21# - I get 'Generic error'
It says to call 877-426-0525 - I called, entered ICCID and IMEI, and was given only options to buy a plan
The prepaid card says to call 800-352-4071 - I called, and the first thing I need is a phone number.
I tried att.com/myprepaid and tried to activate - the only options are to buy a plan
So, how to you activate a new phone when you've already bought the minutes for it, but don't yet have a phone number for it?

You have to have a plan. The card is just a refill
