I went to the website of my phone provider, and chatted with someone. Evidently, because I ordered a new SIM card, the old one was turned off.

My new SIM card, I was told, will arrive in 7-10 days. I guess when I reported the phone lost, they turned it off so that no one else could use it? Anyway...one of these days I will be able to make calls and text people again.

I hope all is well with you in your part of myLot land!

If you buy a new SIM card in your area, do you have to wait for days? It's not like in my area where every cell phone shop sells them.

I didn't buy it, the cell phone company is sending it to me. My phone is from a government program for low income people.

That sounds about right, unfortunately. I just hope when they say 7 to 10 days they actually mean it.

I just got a tracking email that says my package is in Texas. When I checked the USPS site, I saw the the item came from Fort Worth, TX, and is currently in Dallas. It's supposed to be here, according to the site, on the ninth.
