Consumer cellular

you would need to sign up and pay for a data plan for an iPad - they are not phones. And, checking their site, it appears that they do not offer a stand alone data plan. you cannot activate an iPad with a plan for a phone - for one thing, iPads do not have phone numbers.

Ardvart,

Apologies for the misunderstanding. It doesn't appear that iPads are listed on Consumer Cellular's website under Plans or Products and Services: Consumer Cellular. If you've contacted them, and they've said that they cannot activate the iPad on their network, you would need to find another network if you'd like to use cellular data.

Cheers.

Hi there Ardvart,

We understand that you're unable to connect your iPhone to your service provider. Let's see how we can help. Are you having trouble activating it? If so, review the steps outlined here: If you can't activate your iPhone. If you see No Service or Searching, there are some additional steps to try in this article, including contacting your carrier.: If you see No Service or Searching on your iPhone or iPad.

If neither of those articles help, reply with the answers to these questions:

• Are you seeing an alert on your device that says your iPhone isn't compatible?
• Have you been able to use this iPhone on your service provider's network in the past?

Best regards.
