Tracfone won't activate....

Lost my phone geocaching....rrrrrrr

Got a new Nokia 2126, and "activated" it today, but it doesn't work.
My last phone activated almost instantly, so I'm a bit worried, it's
been about 4 hours.

I'm in Nebraska, home of Alltel. If I try to call from my phone, an
Alltel recording wants to help me pay! Calls to my phone say "the
Alltel customer you are trying to reach...."

The coverage maps for Nebraska are messed up. Actually, all they show
is one map, for Omaha, everything else is "roaming." I know that ain't
right, I've used Tracfone for years, I had good home coverage with my
old phone. The number they gave me is local, like my old one, so I
shouldn't be roaming, should I?

I went ahead and activated, despite the screwy map. Did I mess
something up, or do I just need to be patient?

O-

A-ha, I knew something was wrong!

Go back yet again to the tech support option, and it says "we have
determined you need more codes."

Works great now!

Thanks anyhow!
