Did you read the instructions?
How about checking their website for instructions?

forgive me...what's a pin?

I have a startac btw, so once I know what a pin is, then I might be able to help you.

It's a security number you can use to lock the phone.

I'm pretty sure the PIN that you use when checking the voicemail has nothing to do with the physical phone itself. I think you should call up the customer service of your wireless service provider and ask them. They'll probably ask you some questions to identify you and then you can tell them what you want your pin to be. That's my best guess. Sorry.

actually i would have to agree with grimm. there is no reason that you should wait on the telephone for 3.5 hours to talk to a customer service rep. tell them you don't like their service and find another one. or in the short term: get another provider.

good luck with the pin code thing
