Mine was sealed and unused, so they must be giving you the run around. I’d keep fighting it.

Your APN settings are likely the culprit and they probably need to be entered manually. Go into your network settings and it should be under Data/APN settings or something like that. Sorry, can’t help much since I’ve been an iPhone user for a year, but that’s probably it. Short of that, call CS.
Please do not PM me with requests for assistance, unless I PM you first, or if I give you permission to. That's what the forums are for!

So they extended this deal to end of April? I could have wait for another two weeks so that my current prepaid plan runs out. That's what I get for playing it safe.

BTW website says offer expires June 30, 2018. So they extended it even further?

This is the email they sent when I asked if the deal was going to be extended

"Thanks for your interest in Zoomer Wireless. My name is Kevin and I'll be assisting you with your inquiry today.

Read carefully the plan details below...

$40 SMART PHONE Plan details: Promo (Double Minutes/Data plus 2GB data (Promo expires April 30/2018)) (2 year term required)
The promo will remain as long as they retain the same rate plan.

Cost to them - $36/mo. plus any additional usage and tax. ($40 less 10%)
500MB doubled with another 500MB data plus 2GB bonus = 3GB Data LTE per month
200 + 200 bonus weekday minutes = 400 weekday minutes per month (6PM-7AM Mon - Fri)
Canada-Wide Long Distance
UNLIMITED Text & MMS (Canada/INTL, sent from Canada)
Unlimited Evenings & Weekends (6PM - 7AM Mon - Fri, Sat, Sun)
Unlimited Incoming Text
FREE Mini Voicemail ( 3 messages saved for 3 days, 3 minutes in length each)
FREE Name Display
Free Call Waiting
Free Caller ID
Free Conference Calling
Unlimited Zoomer to Zoomer calling "



On a side note besides the $36 per month are there any additional monthly fees besides 911?
I'll switch over before the end of the month to use what I already have paid for.I imagine this deal will end whenever they get enough subs that they want.

Mine was sealed, but it was an upgrade so I had my SIM card already
Also, I got the unlock code today and unlocked it no problem.

Sealed or not, I will still open it to make sure it's unlocked and/or unlock it.
And to update it to the latest version because there are TONS of it.

Well, if you'd bother to read tru hundreds of Zoomer thread pages, you will see that they _always_ do this: they open the box to insert the SIM card and check the phone. Or that's what they are saying. Very, very rare few manged to ask and get the sealed box. So it is normal procedure with Zoomer, not an "Open box" phone that you got.

We have to keep in mind its target client base, baby boomers retirees, thus they pre-install the SIM card so it's fool proof for them.

Thank you, found it. It also said: If you have an unlocked LG device (G3/G4/G5), you may need to factory reset your phone after updating your APN.

I have an unlocked G4, does it mean I have to factory reset my phone? Does that mean all my existing things inside my phone will be gone?:(

Several other providers will do the same. When I jumped on the PC Mobile deal for the Moto G5, the box was also opened because they inspect the contents. It does not mean you are getting a used phone.

As the person above said, it's on the first page. It helps to read the first page of about thread or even using the "Search Thread" feature before asking duplicate questions.

As I have already written in the thread summary, you may have to factory reset. Back up your phone before you factory reset so you won't lose your data. You can do this with a micro SD or by connecting your device to a computer (I think. I have only done through SD).

Your emails and contacts are synced with your Google account. Some of your profile preferences will re-sync after the faculty reset and you sign-in with your Google (gmail) account again.

Get SMS Backup & Restore by SyncTech from the Playstore, back-up your SMS and call history to your Google Drive. Move other files to your SD Card.

Nothing to worry about when factory resetting.
