Calling in a favor & a question
This is directed to any t-mobile reps/sales/cs/cc.
I am in desperate need of a t-mobile loaner phone. Someone very close to me lost their phone and it is imperative that they have a phone. In about 2-3 months they can re-up but for now I need to get them into something. (anything that is capable, doesn't need to be anything fancy)
I'm in the long island, ny area and if any of you have anything please let me know.
Now my question, how does t-mobile deal with ESN changes (i guess it would be a sim/imei change but im a verizon guy)? The original phone is lost so im guessing it would need to be phoned in somehow and the sim would have to be activate to that line?
thanks for whatever help you guys can give me

Your friend will need to purchase a new sim card and have it activated on their line. You will then slide the new sim card into the new phone. You might as well pick up a T-Mobile prepaid phone as the cost will only be slightly higher than that of a sim card in a T-Mobile store.
...
all your friend has to do is go to a CORPORATE t-mobile store, and most likely they will not charge the $20 for a SIM card, at least in MN. Then go to wal-mart or Target and buy a t-mobile 6030 prepaid phone for 30 bucks. there you go. cheap and temporary solution til you get the upgrade.. also do not activate the prepaid SIM. just use the one you got from the Corp store.
