Don’t put the SIM card from your old device in the new device, since this can cause problems. First we’ll show you how to find your IMEI number and SIM (or ICCID) card number on your new device. You’ll need these numbers later. You can find the IMEI number and SIM card number on the papers shipped with your new device or you can get this information from the new device itself.

For details, consult your owner's manual. If your new device doesn’t have a menu option for viewing this information, also refer to the owner’s manual. If you can’t find the IMEI or SIM card number using any of these methods, remove the back cover of the device and remove the battery. You’ll find the 15-digit IMEI number printed on a white sticker. While the battery is still out, carefully remove the SIM card from the device. Notice the 19 or 20-digit number on the front of the SIM card. If you removed the battery and SIM card, replace them now and turn on your device. Now we’re ready to activate your new device. The confirmation email you received when you placed the order for your new device contains a link to the online activation process. If you can’t find the confirmation email, you can also get to the online activation process from the Premier home page. From the 'I want to' list, select “Activate device” and click Go. Then follow the instructions to activate your device. When you’re done, test the device. Make sure the device is fully charged and then place a call. If the call is successful, your device is active! If the call wasn’t successful, wait a little while and try again. If your device isn’t active within 3 hours, contact Premier Support at 866.499.8008, Monday through Friday, between 8 a.m. Eastern Time for assistance. Thank you for learning more about Premier.
