    I see. I activated my SIM before the OVMS even got here so maybe that's a solution to this problem.

    It does.

    The module also has the ability to make those *xxx# calls to check balance, but only Android App supports that at the moment. It will come to iPhone in due course.

    Do you need to have the module powered up in your car with the activated SIM and your account registered with the service first though?

    It's probably better to not tell them what you want it for. That just sends them up a wall and confuses them. Just ask for a SIM card and the 10 cent/min PayGo plan with 200 text messages per month and 10 MB/month data each for $5. Have them stick it into a phone and activate it too to verify it works. Good luck.

    I created this thread in the 'Parts for Sale' section to try and not clutter the main installation thread here with just US specific AT&T PayGo issues

    Yes. The auto-forward SMS is really designed for when everything is operational.

    See: M2M SIM card | Open Vehicle Systems

    Across the border: Machine2Machine | datamobile
    Swiss: NATELĀ® easy liberty uno

    We do have a few Swiss users. In general, the European users don't seem to be having SIM issues. Lots of choice.

    AT&T or AT&T - the land of the free...

    Yes "info" was "monitoring and I see that it does much more now as to when that Apple video was made. I made some fun feature suggestions on TMC page.

    The world loves to be deceived.
