Finding the Serial Number:

A. Look on the Original Packaging. I keep my organ packing for instances like this. So, if you have it, it would be right on the back of the box.


B. Look on a Packaging Invoice:

If this was mail to you (not picked up in the store), then look at the packaging invoice.


C. Look on your Carrier's Site:

Logging in to my carriers site, I can see mentioned under this device.
