Hope this is in the correct forum. Usually we buy phone cards for our Claro phone. This time when I went into the corner store to purchase one they just gave me a receipt and told me to punch number in on my phone.
Yeah, that did nothing...

Someone used to using the paper receipt style? I would love to get some minutes on my phone....thanks!

Orange has had that for years in addition to the typical scratch-off cards.

Now they add peso electronically. Give them $$$ and you get one or two Text Messages with the amount put on your account. I get a 10% "bonus" that way.

This has a 10 digit number preceeded and followed by ***** ....so I summe it it the pin. But when I entered it on my phone it gave me the msg about not having sufficient minutes to complete the call...uh, thanks!

I know with the cards I have to first enter a 3 digit number (114?) But this receipt gives no info on that....

Yes you have to enter the 3 digit number. I only know for Claro it is 1133 then you hit send. Then the nice lady will ask for the PIN. You don't call the PIN number.

YOu dial 1133 for claro and send. Then listen for the lady. Sorry for confusion - for Orange I think it is a 3 digit.
