You are purchasing a T-Mobile SIM card ICCID number ONLY
Example:  8901260000000000000
WARNING:  SIGNIFICANT ONLINE ACTIVATION ISSUE - UPDATE 4/9/2021
Online self activation may result in an error during the final step of submitting payment of the activation fee.  Unless you have access to alternate means of processing your own activation, I do not recommend purchase of any ICCID(s) until this issue is resolved.
Description of what you're purchasing:
You will receive a unique, valid ICCID for each quantity purchased.  No physical SIM card will be shipped, and I have no way of accessing a physical SIM card associated with your purchased ICCID(s).  This can not be used to activate usable service on a cellular phone.
Typical use for purchasing an ICCID is
to create a plus tax (charged separately by T-Mobile) prepaid account with a new phone number, then porting the number to a competing network to take advantage of promotional discounts which require a number port from a competing network.
Please note that Metro by T-Mobile won't accept T-Mobile numbers for promotional discounts, and some local Boost/Cricket dealers may insist on making a "test call" to your number to verify service, which you won't be able to answer with an account associated with a digital-only ICCID.
Shipping options:
Local Pickup
- No shipping charge, nothing is mailed.  For your records, a copy of your unique ICCID(s) will be sent via eBay message within 6 minutes after purchase, 24/7 via fully automated order processing.
Standard USPS
-
A printed copy of your unique ICCID(s) purchased will be sent by postal mail, with a tracking number (as required by eBay for shipped items).  Lightweight packing material is included to "bulk" the package to tracked USPS parcel rate, and can simply be discarded in the trash.
Instructions for use:
PRESENTLY, ONLINE SELF ACTIVATION MAY RESULT IN AN ACTIVATION ERROR AT THE FINAL STEP OF CHECKOUT.  UNLESS YOU HAVE ACCESS TO AN ALTERNATE MEANS OF ACTIVATION, PURCHASE IS NOT RECOMMENDED UNTIL THE ISSUE IS RESOLVED

Follow the remaining prompts to complete your purchase.  Please remember to provide a working e-mail address, as T-Mobile will use this to send your new phone number and mobile account number, which you will need (along with the PIN you have set) when porting out.
If you receive reserved status error:
T-Mobile's prepaid activation site will place your ICCID into "Reserved" status once you choose a plan, and
you will have to wait at least 2 hours to restart the activation process later if you do not complete the entire process in one attempt.
A reserved ICCID will cause the error "
Sorry, that SIM card is Reserved. Please try that SIM again in 2 hours or contact T-Mobile or visit your local T-Mobile store for a new SIM card."
If you encounter this issue, and T-Mobile does not automatically release your ICCID after 2 hours, please let me know and I'll send a replacement ICCID within 24 hours (usually quicker).  Thanks for your understanding.
Return/Refund policy:
Digital items are non-refundable.  Defective items will be promptly replaced upon the buyer providing photographic proof of the problem with their item and a description of the error received.
