When you activate a new Lively Flip phone, there is an account that is created for you and a monthly recurring charge based on the plan you choose during the activation process. There is a one-time activation fee of $35.00. If you activate online, then the fee will be discounted to $25.00. For any further assistance please contact our Customer Service Team at 1-800-733-6632, between 5 a.m. and 7 p.m. Pacific Time seven days a week.

I purchased a lively flip phone at BB. They transferred the number from the current AT&T phone account. Said it could take a couple of minutes or up to 3 days. At the end of 3 days the service quit on the old phone and the service has not started on the new phone, two days later. So it has been 5 days since purchase. The phone was purchased for a senior citizen who is unable to navigate this mess. They are now without any cell phone at all. I am trying to get this resolved. Will post later once I have more information. My intent is to cancel the deal altogether and go with another type of phone. I can see that this phone was way too complicated for intended use.

I activated my mom's phone via the 800 number. It was a $35 activation fee plus the first month's service.
