First, complete porting
If you are porting in your existing number, please wait until the number transfer is finished before you complete any other steps. You can view the status of your number transfer by logging in to your UNREALMobile.com account here.
Insert your SIM and wait for automatic APN setup
Next, insert your SIM card into a compatible phone and power on your device. Once your device has powered on, you will receive a message to complete an automatic APN setup. APN stands for Access Point Name, and it’s the setting on your phone that allows it to receive a mobile network connection.
Follow the quick and easy steps on your phone (the message you receive will tell you everything you need to know) and start using your new UNREAL Mobile service!

If you have any problems with the automatic APN setup or you do not receive the message after inserting your SIM, please update your phone’s APN settings manually.
