Unlocked Samsung Galaxy S23 plus IMEI error
I preordered the unlocked S23+from Samsung and received it yesterday. When I tried to activate it online, it gave me an IMEI error. I called into support and the tech tried to help me activate it and he also got the IMEI error. He said I probably have to wait till the official release date on Feb. 17th to activate it. Is this true that I cannotactivate the S23+ before the official release date?SIM Moved Prematurely to S23 Pre-Order
After a debacle pre-ordering the Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra at its rollout last week (see thread "Samsung S23 Pre-Order Problem Through Samsung"), now a new problem--my SIM was moved from my current phone to the new one, even though it won't arrive for 10 more days. Discovered only when I couldn't get text messages to go and finally received a notice I had no network connection. A knowledgeable T-Mobile agent (5 stars to her!) agreed my hypothesis is likely because of the timing--that it was part of the nightmarish S23 ordering process. But she cautioned me to watch my accounts because there's been a problem with hijacked SIMs to gain banking and other information. Has anyone else experienced this?
