How to Activate a Revol Phone

Many existing mobile phone models are compatible with Revol wireless service.

Revol is a mobile service provider offering nationwide service with no contract obligations, deposits or credit checks. Revol offers unlimited incoming and outgoing calls for a flat monthly rate, instead of the common pay-per-minute rate of other prepaid services. Revol offers the option to keep your current mobile phone, if compatible with these services. If your current phone is not compatible, Revol offers a large variety of cell phones for purchase. If certain conditions are met, transfer your existing mobile number to your new service or opt to be assigned a new number.

Things You'll Need

• Picture ID
• Current account information for previous provider

Instructions

1. Locate your mobile phone's make and model. This can be found on your phone's original packaging, underneath its battery or in the "About" option located in your phone's main menu. Make note of this information.

2. Compare your mobile phone model with Revol's list of compatible device models (see Resources) to check if you can keep your current phone with Revol mobile service. If you chose to purchase a new device or your mobile phone is not compatible, visit a Revol store (see Resources for store locations near you) or purchase a new device on their website.

3. Visit a Revol store with your existing or new mobile phone and your picture ID. Keep your current wireless number by completing a porting, or transfer, request. Specific requirements must be met to grant a port request including active service with your current provider and complete wireless account verification. You must be the account holder, an authorized user or the account holder must be present.

4. Request a new number if your port request is denied or you opt for a new wireless number. The Revol agent will program your mobile device with the wireless number and activate your phone. Revol offers you unlimited talk time anytime and anywhere. Once your service is active, select the wireless features best suited for your needs, such as text-messaging and mobile Web.
