Bring an unlocked phone, a photo ID, and (if you're keeping your number) your old carrier's account number and PIN. We handle the SIM swap, plan setup, number port, and quick walkthrough of the new dialer. Most lines are talking and texting in 15 to 30 minutes.
- No credit check. Prepaid means no Social, no contract, no hidden fee.
- Keep your number. Bring the old account number and PIN — we'll port it in.
- Use your phone. Any unlocked phone works. If yours is locked, we can usually unlock it on the bench.
- Pay how you want. Cash, card, Apple Pay — all accepted.

How long does activation take?
Most activations are finished in 15 to 30 minutes — SIM swap, plan setup, number port. Walk in to 1054 Beach 20th Street any day of the week.
Do I need a credit check?
No. Prepaid plans require no credit check, no contract, and no Social Security number. Just a photo ID and an unlocked phone.
Can I keep my old number?
Yes. Bring your existing carrier's account number and PIN. The number port typically completes in under 15 minutes.
What if my phone is locked?
We can usually unlock your phone on the bench. If your carrier requires more time, we'll set you up with a temporary SIM and finish the swap when the unlock clears.
Which network is best in Far Rockaway?
All four major networks (Verizon, T-Mobile, AT&T, and the MVNOs riding on them) work well across the peninsula. Spectrum Mobile and Verizon Prepaid tend to be strongest on the western end near the Marine Parkway Bridge. We'll talk through coverage at the counter.
