Getting rid of my cell phone


Question Posted Friday June 22 2007, 9:33 pm

So, I had a chocolate, and well, they're horrible. Mine broke while still under warranty, so I got a new one free. Now I can get a completely different phone, but I figured I would just sell the free chocolate I was sent and never used. My question is, if I sell the phone I never used, would the person I sell it to have it with my number programmed in when they registered the applications? When I looked at the receipt, I noticed that the chocolate I had never used was registered to my number. If it is, in fact, programmed with my current number in it, how can I change that? Thank you very much!

I'll add on to the previous post:
No, your number won't be programmed into the phone, there should be a SIM card that you place next to the battery that basically says that it's you calling from that phone. Without the SIM card, the phone is just a phone. They did that because like for landlines, you have to have the wires connected from the phone box into the phone, or else the phone is just a phone, the wires give you service because you're paying for the service. For cell phones, they had to have something like that, or else the whole getting a new phone thing would be messy, once you didn't want your first phone, and you got a new one, the first one would still work, and so would the new one.
That might not make sense but, oh well, I wrote it.

Hope I helped
^-^
