I've just purchased this card. The listing said it would include $10 airtime as bonus. During activation, the pin number that came with the card was rejected. I've called AT&T customer service, spoke with a manager just to find out that this $10 airtime promotion no longer valid and it applied only if you had purchased a phone through AT&T as well. And their new promotion was add $25 within first week to get $10 credit. WTF???

So, pretty much I've purchased a SIM card with $0 balance. The manager was able to issue me a $5 credit--that was the limit according to his words. But I am still not happy and feel mislead by the false advertisement. Buyer beware.

After moving to the US from overseas, I needed a pre-paid SIM for my iphone. The at&t go phone SIM was exactly what I needed. After reading the customer reviews, I realised that some people had difficulties activating the SIM and for others it worked well. I thought $6.00 it's worth a shot. The product arrived super fast. I was very impressed. I was sent the cell antenna and the SIM card sticky taped to it (no instructions, cell number or pin). I'm pretty good with using the internet so I found the activation site on the at&t website. The activation went well until the last stage where the data is being processed. I kept getting an error message from the at&t website "error GP038 activation taking longer than normal. Please try again". I tried calling the at&t customer service line but the automated messages ask for a cell number which I don't have. I contacted the seller for instructions and they were very prompt in replying and gave me a web address which took me to the site I was originally at (I was kinda hoping for more detailed instructions). After further detective work and watching "how to" videos on 'You Tube' I found the solution to my problem and got my SIM activated and a new cell number was issued. I think my activation difficulties were to do with at&t (their horrible website) & the fact I had an iphone. Also, worth mentioning I haven't added any credit to my phone as the at&t website doesn't take overseas credit cards. Thus if you're from overseas, the best bet may be to buy a Pay as You Go card as well.

I ordered this SIM to start a pre-paid AT&T Go-Phone account. I used it in a phone that was previously a AT&T/Cingular network phone, that was not "unlocked".

After activating the Go-Phone account on AT&T's website and putting the SIM in the phone, it worked perfectly. I didn't even need to "unlock" the phone (LG Trax CU-575).

This SIM arrived on time and works quite well. Even activating it online was simple (the seller also sent instructions for the technologically challenged). It doesnt get 5 stars however because of AT&T more than anything else. First you do not receive the $10 as advertised by the seller .. had mine for almost 2 weeks and nothing yet :S Also, if you use this SIM in an unlocked phone and you're not tecky like me .... you have to call customer service and have them instruct you on how to manually configure your Internet and MMS settings so you can use 3G. Plus AT&T is expensive so watch out for those charges.

i got it on time, easy to activate, even got the signal booster. works fine, too. The only thing that sucks is that once you put this in a phone it will lock to that phone for 6 months. so you cant use it with another phone if it breaks like mine did..

I have not purchased this item from the seller, but it clearly states "airtime not included" so I don't know what everyone is complaining about. I did purchase a go phone 2 days ago for my son. We have been with AT&T for years and after doing some research, found it was cheaper to go the go phone route. However, be careful when you buy these with airtime minutes included. I bought the cheapest phone I could find because all he needed was the sim card to put in his other phone. When I activated the phone, the $15 airtime credit is automatically applied and by doing so, locks the sim card to that phone for 180 days!!! I called and argued with AT&T and finally got a manager who unlocked the sim card for me. So, just a heads up to everyone wanting the airtime credits.....you're better off without them unless you intend to use the phone they come with, but usually these are very cheap.

I bought two sim cards for my AT&T phones, one card activated perfectly. However, the other card is not activating so well. Maybe it's the type of phone I'm using, I don't really know. Overall I am happy with my purchase from this seller.

Didnt work for my unlocked Iphone at all! Card is not blue either! Had to take it to At&t because online activation didnt work. Quick shipping though!

The seller didn't include the activation infor in the mail but i got the quick response right after i emailed. Everything works perfectly including the $10 bonus. I'm very happy about it. Thanks!

This is a good deal. I bought two, for two different phones, and was pleased to find that they both worked.
