Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I bought the sim card on Amazon for a Verizon 4G smartphone sold to me without a sim card. The card cost nine dollars. My old phone had a micro sim card, so I was not able to use it when I switched phones. After reading comments on various Internet sites from Verizon Wireless customers who were charged for the sim card and activation when they got sim cards through Verizon Wireless, I decided not to buy the card from a Verizon Wireless store, or from the Verizon Wireless web site. Unlike some of the other people who wrote reviews here on Amazon, I had no problems at all with the sim card. The card I received was exactly as shown in the picture on Amazon, and I activated it on my existing Verizon Wireless account through the Verizon Wireless web site. All I had to do to activate the card is install the card in the phone, log in to my account, select add/replace device, and follow the step-by-step instructions on each screen. I was asked for the IMEI of the phone in which I would be installing the card, and the ID number printed on the sim card. After finishing the steps on the web site, I turned on the phone, and activation began. The entire activation process took about five minutes.
