Tracfone says Emergency Only!?
I'm helping my grandparents setup their new cell phones. They have been completely activated, but when I try to make a call, the phone's screen displays an "Emergency Only!" message.
How do i get rid of this issue?

That's weird. Emergency only means that only 911 can be used . But even unactivated phones can call 911. It is the law. You should try and contact these people for help (forget regular Tracfone Customer service). Elston Lombillo :1.800.626.4883 ext 6107 or elombillo@tracfone.com or CustomerEscalations@tracfone.com Or 1-800-876-5753
If you call Executive Resolutions and end up with regular crappy customer service, hang up and call again when it's slower. They automatically reroute calls to regular CS when ER is overloaded. Timing is important.
You can also try 1-800-TEN-CENT. That is the Net10 number but they help with Tracfone. Though they are owned by the same company, their customer service is better then Tracfone's.

You need to put in a sim card with a plan on it in the cell phone. The sim card should be under the battery.

The number of the pin changes everytime that you put the pin in. The actual cell phone number doesn't change. ( I work at radioshack)
