I awoke this morning to find two unactivated iPhones . I quickly found out that silly me had not given AT&T the proper account information to port my numbers over. Once they had the correct info, I was told that the phones would be good to go within three hours. Five hours later all was not well. I placed another call to AT&T tech support, and had to hang up after 45 minutes of no results, and being told that somehow my activation of two phones signed me up for two calling plans. We got that resolved and I went on to other things. I received a voice mail a little later saying that everything was well. My iPhone told me otherwise.

Long story short, I spent about two more hours this evening with tech support and got the phones working. Ultimately, the issue was that the activation didn’t process in the AT&T system correctly.

I am now a happy man, syncing contacts, calendar, Gmail and more. I do have to give it to the support folks at AT&T. They stuck it out with me and did a lot of troubleshooting. We got the problem solved and life is good. Ah…oneness.
