Cell Telephones Clarification

Can't Post |

I have a cell telephone that is not active, as I have other cell telephones that I use here in the states. I wanted to know where can I take the cell telephone that I am not using, to have someone reprogram it with a prepaid card. This card is install inside the cell telephone. You just buy whatever amount you want.Is there anywhere in the Los Angeles Area or Nogales, AZ or MX where I can have this done. Some of you would not do it on your U.S. cell phones, but remember this in an extra unit that I am not using. Your feedback in this matter is higly appreciated.Best regards.

I had my old cell phone reprogrammed by IUSACELL. They kept the phone overnight to see if it was compatible with their system. They did reprogram it so I can buy prepaid phone cards. The phone is an Ericsson model DF 388. There was no charge for reprogramming the phone. A few months ago, another poster said he had his phone reprogrammed by Telcel. They have a much larger area of coverage than IUSACELL.Rex
