Prepaid Mobile Phones, Prepaid Cell Phones, Wireless Airtime
Either you use a lot of minutes on your cell phone or just an occasional wireless caller, you will save money with a prepaid wireless mobile services offered by LDPOST.
The different prepaid wireless plans that LD Post offers are designed for different types of usage.
Customers have the choice of 2 different plans:
If you have a phone that you need activated, then you will need to use the plan that corresponds to your phone's standard - CDMA or GSM
Both GSM and CDMA services clearly have advantages and disadvantages to them. In general CDMA phones receive better service coverage then GSM phones. So if service coverage is what you are after CDMA is technology for you. CDMA phones also have a higher data transfer rates and emit a smaller amount of radiation.
Advantages of GSM phones can be seen through their versatility. Virtually everywhere around the world currently uses GSM technology. While United States GSM phones broadcast at different frequencies then many other GSM networks around the world multi-band phones can be obtained so traveling with your phone is easy. GSM phones also use a Sim card, which make switching phones an easy and painless process.
Both services receive comparable prices for prepaid minutes starting at 5 cents per minute. Therefore if cost is not the determining factor, here is what should be. The deciding factor as to which phone is right for you should depend on local service coverage in your area and areas that you frequently travel to. If you are concerned about service coverage, remember that in general CDMA phones will receive better coverage then GSM, however both service provide adequate coverage to most parts of the United States.
If you already have a phone that you would like Long Distance Post to activate for prepaid wireless, you must go with the network that your phone currently operates on. It is not possible to change the network that a phone operates on.
These plans have very similar conditions, but you should still see each plan's web page for more details before making a purchase.
If you placed an order for a mobile phone or an activation kit that requires shipment, the order will be fulfilled and shipped by the next business day for all stocked items. You can choose between delivery methods - we ship UPS ground and USPS overnight.
If you placed an order for a Starter kit that does not need to be shipped, like Locus Platinum CDMA starter KIT, then the phone activations instructions will be e-mailed to you not later then the next business day.
If for any reason we can't fulfill your order by the next business day due to technical issues or because the requested phone number is being out of stock, we will contact you by phone or e-mail.

Keep posted for prepaid GSM SIM cards that work in other countries.
Before you order an Activation Kit, you will need to know the standard that your phone uses - CDMA or GSM - so you can order the correct product.
The easiest way to find that is to see what carrier was it previously used on. Here are some of the major carriers:
- Verizon Wireless - CDMA
- Sprint PCS - CDMA
- T-Mobile - GSM
- AT&T - GSM or TDMA
- Cingular - GSM or TDMA
- Nextel - iDEN
GSM is the only standard that uses SIM cards - small cards that are inserted under the battery. If your phone has one, then it is most likely a GSM phone, however Nextel phones also use the SIM cards, but are not compatible with GSM phones.
If you are still not sure, please send us an email with the exact model of your phone and we will be able to help you.
No, unfortunately we cannot. While Sprint phones do operate on a CDMA network, they need to be reprogrammed in order to work on Verizon's network. Long Distance Post does not reprogram or unlock phones.
No. The air-time from the recharge card is added just once - the whole balance of the recharge card will be added to the phone. All calls are made without dialing PIN.
Every time you are making call, the minutes balance should be announced.
Not immediately. There is 1 month period allowed for you to keep the phone number without having any minutes on the phone. After one month with zero balance you will lose your service and the phone number. To reactivate your service you will need to buy a new Activation Kit, but the phone number will be issued new.

General questions
SIM stands for Subscriber Identity Module. A SIM card is a small "smart card" for GSM/GPRS mobile phones that contains your personal account profile as well as saves important information (i.e. network information, account services, your mobile phone number, stored telephone numbers, SMS messages and more). The SIM card must be inserted in the handset in order for it to operate.
Before you order an Activation Kit, you will need to know the standard that your phone uses - CDMA or GSM - so you can order the correct product.
The easiest way to find that is to see what carrier was it previously used on. Here are some of the major carriers:
- Verizon Wireless - CDMA
- Sprint PCS - CDMA
- T-Mobile - GSM
- AT&T - GSM
- Cingular - GSM
GSM is the only standard that uses SIM cards - small cards that are inserted under the battery. If your phone has one, then it is a GSM phone.
If you are still not sure, please send us an email with the exact model of your phone and we will be able to help you.
The only practical way to find out if the phone is unlocked or at least will be working with O2 Oxygen Wireless is to borrow a SIM card from another Cingular GSM phone. You can borrow a SIM card from somebody you know. There is no harm to be made to a SIM card by inserting it in the phone. If your phone works with the borrowed SIM card, then you are all set. If you see a Cingular logo on the GSM phone, then it is most probably will work with O2 Oxygen Wireless.
a. Remove battery from your phone b. Carefully push out SIM from the Plastic cardholder c. Place SIM into the phone’s SIM cardholder with the gold square facing down and positioned so the metallic face of the SIM is lined up with and touching the metal contacts on the phone. d. Close the phone’s SIM cardholder until it clicks e. Replace the battery and battery cover f. Turn on your Phone g. If installation is successful, "O2 Wireless," "Locus," or "My Network" should be in the phone’s display h. If "Insert SIM Card," "Check SIM," "SOS Only," or "Unregistered SIM" appears in the phone’s display, remove the SIM and re-insert as instructed above.
O2 Oxygen GSM recharge cards will provide you with the following number of minutes:
- $10 - 70 minutes
- $20 - 140 minutes
- $30 - 500 minutes
- $40 - 800 minutes
- $60 - 420 minutes
- $100 - 700 minutes
The rate per minute starts at $0.05 / min.
The expiration period depends on the value of the recharge card:
- $10 - 90 days
- $20 - 90 days
- $30 - 30 days
- $60 - 120 days
- $100 - 180 days
All recharge cards have a Rollover effect - when you add more minutes to your account, then all of your minutes - old and new - receive the extra time.
Unused Activation Kit minutes will be extended for the period of the corresponding recharge card. For example, 25 days after your phone has been activated you have 30 minutes left. You added $100 recharge card to your service. Your Starter Kit 30 minutes will be extended for 6 months now, so you will have 700+30=763 minutes good for 6 month. You will be able to roll over these minutes as well by adding another recharge card at the end of this period.
Yes.
When you add additional minutes before your old minutes have expired, all of your minutes - old and new - receive another period of time, according to the recharge card that you are using.
Please note that if your minutes have already expired, the new recharge card will not restore the lost minutes.
Yes. It is free to retrieve voicemail from a land line phone.
1. Dial your wireless phone number. 2. Press if calling from your wireless phone. Press if calling from any other phone. 3. Enter your pass code. 4. The system will automatically play the new voice messages.
No. There are no any daily or monthly fees with O2 Oxygen Wireless GSM.
Except for promotional free minutes given with activation, all separately purchased minutes will roll over and will be added to the full balance off the phone for the duration of the expiration period of the purchased card.
Example:
You have 20 minutes left from your $10 card. You bought a $100 card and added 700 minutes to your phone. You total minutes now is 720. All these minutes are good for 180 days now.
No. There is no additional activation fee. The price of the phone includes the cost of activation kit and free minutes.
Simply dial  and you'll receive a message, in your phone's display, indicating the remaining balance. If you need assistance, please dial  from your handset (this is a FREE call).
You will need to ensure the new phone is a Cingular and FCC approved GSM 850/1900, dual, tri, or quad-band handset that can be used for activations on O2 Oxygen Wireless GSM. Take the SIM card from your current phone and insert it in your new phone. You can now use your new phone as you normally would.

V. RESOLUTION OF DISPUTES PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS RIGHTS THAT YOU MAY OTHERWISE HAVE. IT PROVIDES FOR RESOLUTION OF MOST DISPUTES THROUGH ARBITRATION INSTEAD OF COURT TRIALS AND CLASS ACTIONS. ARBITRATION IS FINAL AND BINDING AND SUBJECT TO ONLY VERY LIMITED REVIEW BY A COURT. THIS ARBITRATION CLAUSE SHALL SURVIVE TERMINATION OF THIS AGREEMENT.
a. Binding Arbitration. It is intended that this provision be interpreted broadly to encompass all disputes or claims arising out of our relationship. Any dispute or claim, including those against any of our subsidiary, parent or affiliate companies, arising out of or relating to this Agreement, our Privacy Policy or the Service or any equipment used in connection with the Service (whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation or any other legal theory) will be resolved by binding arbitration except that (1) you may take claims to small claims court if they qualify for hearing by such a court, or (2) you or we may choose to pursue claims in court if the claims relate solely to the collection of any debts you owe to us. b. Arbitration Procedures. You must first present any claim or dispute to us by contacting Customer Care to allow us an opportunity to resolve the dispute. You may request arbitration if your claim or dispute has not been resolved within 90 days. The arbitration of any dispute or claim shall be conducted in accordance with the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under the Wireless Industry Arbitration Rules ("WIA Rules"), as modified by this Agreement. The WIA Rules and information about arbitration and fees are available upon request from the AAA online at www.adr.org. You and we agree that this Agreement evidences a transaction in interstate commerce and this arbitration provision will be interpreted and enforced in accordance with the Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law. Unless you and we agree otherwise, any arbitration will take place in the county seat for the county in which your billing address is located. At either party's election, the arbitration shall be held telephonically. An arbitrator may award any relief or damages (including injunctive or declaratory relief) that a court could award, except an arbitrator may not award relief in excess of or contrary to what this Agreement provides and may not order relief on a consolidated, class wide or representative basis. In any arbitration applying the WIA Rules applicable to large/complex cases, the Arbitrators must also apply the Federal Rules of Evidence, and the losing party may have the award reviewed in accordance with the review procedures set forth in the WIA Rules. Judgment on any arbitration award may be entered in any court having proper jurisdiction. If any portion of this arbitration clause is determined by a court to be inapplicable or invalid, then the remainder shall still be given full force and effect. c. Costs of Arbitration. For claims of less than $1,000, you will be obligated to pay $25 and we will pay all other administrative costs and fees. For claims over $1,000 but under $75,000, you will be obligated to pay your share of the arbitration fees, but no more than the equivalent court filing fee for a court action filed in the jurisdiction where your billing address is located. For arbitrations in excess of $75,000, all administrative fees and expenses of arbitration will be divided equally between you and us. In all arbitrations, each party will bear the expense of its own counsel, experts, witnesses and preparation and presentation of evidence at the arbitration.
d. Waiver of Class Actions. By this Agreement, both you and we are waiving certain rights to litigate disputes in court. You and we both agree that any arbitration will be conducted on an individual basis and not on a consolidated, class wide or representative basis. If for any reason this arbitration clause is deemed inapplicable or invalid, or to the extent this arbitration clause allows for litigation of disputes in court, you and we both waive, to the fullest extent allowed by law, any right to pursue any claims on a class or consolidated basis or in a representative capacity. e. Limitations Period. Any arbitration or legal action with respect to any and all claims or causes of action related to or arising out of this Agreement must be brought within two years after the cause of action arises, or within the applicable statutory period of time, whichever is shorter. This limitations period does not apply to any given cause of action when the statutory limitations period for that cause of action cannot be waived, restricted or otherwise limited by you.
VI. MISCELLANEOUS a. Privacy. We are not liable for any lack of privacy, which may be experienced with regard to the Service. You authorize our monitoring and recording of calls to us concerning your account or the Service and consent to our use of automatic dialing equipment to contact you. We have the right to intercept and disclose any transmission over our facilities in order to protect our rights or property. b. Assignment.

General Questions
There are two carriers in USA that use CDMA standard - Verizon Wireless and Sprint.
For H2O Wireless/Locus Platinum CDMA only Verizon Wireless phones could be activated. So, if there is a Verizon logo on the phone, your are all set and can place an order for the Locus Platinum Starter Kit.
The expiration period depends on the value of the recharge card:
- $10 - 30 days
- $20 - 60 days
- $30 - 30 days
- $40 - 30 days
- $100 - 120 days
All cards have a Rollover effect - when you add more minutes to your account, then all of your minutes - old and new - receive the extra time.
Unused Activation Kit minutes will be extended for the period of the corresponding recharge card. For example, 25 days after your phone has been activated you have 30 minutes left. You added $50 recharge card to your service. Your Starter Kit 30 minutes will be extended for 2 month now, so you will have 833+30=863 minutes good for 90 days. You will be able to roll over these minutes as well by adding another recharge card at the end of this period.
Yes.
When you add additional minutes before your old minutes have expired, all of your minutes - old and new - receive another period of time, according to the recharge card that you are using.
Please note that if your minutes have already expired, the new recharge card will not restore the lost minutes.
It is very rarely that you would get into the situation when the roaming charge applies. Locus network is very extensive. However, when it happens, the roaming charge is 99 cents per minute. You will know if you are roaming as the number of minutes announced will be almost 7 times less than usual.
An ESN is the Electronic Serial Number, which is located on the back of your phone.
You can also read it of the phone screen by dialing #639#9.
It could be 11 digit long number or 8 charachter long Hex-decimal number. Either one will work.

V. RESOLUTION OF DISPUTES PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS RIGHTS THAT YOU MAY OTHERWISE HAVE. IT PROVIDES FOR RESOLUTION OF MOST DISPUTES THROUGH ARBITRATION INSTEAD OF COURT TRIALS AND CLASS ACTIONS. ARBITRATION IS FINAL AND BINDING AND SUBJECT TO ONLY VERY LIMITED REVIEW BY A COURT. THIS ARBITRATION CLAUSE SHALL SURVIVE TERMINATION OF THIS AGREEMENT.
a. Binding Arbitration. This provision is intended to be interpreted broadly to encompass all disputes or claims arising out of our relationship. Any dispute or claim, including those against any of our subsidiary, parent or affiliate companies, arising out of or relating to this Agreement, our Privacy Policy or the Service or any equipment used in connection with the Service (whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation or any other legal theory) will be resolved by binding arbitration except that (1) you may take claims to small claims court if they qualify for hearing by such a court, or (2) you or we may choose to pursue claims in court if the claims relate solely to the collection of any debts you owe to us.
b. Arbitration Procedures. You must first present any claim or dispute to us by contacting Customer Service to allow us an opportunity to resolve the dispute. You may request arbitration if your claim or dispute has not been resolved within 90 days. The arbitration of any dispute or claim shall be conducted in accordance with the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under the Wireless Industry Arbitration Rules ("WIA Rules"), as modified by this Agreement. The WIA Rules and information about arbitration and fees are available upon request from the AAA online at www.adr.org. You and we agree that this Agreement evidences a transaction in interstate commerce and this arbitration provision will be interpreted and enforced in accordance with the Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law. Unless you and we agree otherwise, any arbitration will take place in the county seat for the county in which your billing address is located. At either party's election, the arbitration shall be held telephonically. An arbitrator may award any relief or damages (including injunctive or declaratory relief) that a court could award, except an arbitrator may not award relief in excess of or contrary to what this Agreement provides and may not order relief on a consolidated, class wide or representative basis. In any arbitration applying the WIA Rules applicable to large/complex cases, the Arbitrators must also apply the Federal Rules of Evidence, and the losing party may have the award reviewed in accordance with the review procedures set forth in the WIA Rules. Judgment on any arbitration award may be entered in any court having proper jurisdiction. If any portion of this arbitration clause is determined by a court to be inapplicable or invalid, then the remainder shall still be given full force and effect.
c. Costs of Arbitration. For claims of less than $1,000, you will be obligated to pay $25 and we will pay all other administrative costs and fees. For claims over $1,000 but under $75,000, you will be obligated to pay your share of the arbitration fees, but no more than the equivalent court filing fee for a court action filed in the jurisdiction where your billing address is located. For arbitrations in excess of $75,000, all administrative fees and expenses of arbitration will be divided equally between you and us. In all arbitrations, each party will bear the expense of its own counsel, experts, witnesses and preparation and presentation of evidence at the arbitration.
d. Waiver of Class Actions. By this Agreement, both you and we are waiving certain rights to litigate disputes in court. You and we both agree that any arbitration will be conducted on an individual basis and not on a consolidated, class wide or representative basis. If for any reason this arbitration clause is deemed inapplicable or invalid, or to the extent this arbitration clause allows for litigation of disputes in court, you and we both waive, to the fullest extent allowed by law, any right to pursue any claims on a class or consolidated basis or in a representative capacity.
e. Limitations Period. Any arbitration or legal action with respect to any and all claims or causes of action related to or arising out of this Agreement must be brought within two years after the cause of action arises, or within the applicable statutory period of time, whichever is shorter. This limitations period does not apply to any given cause of action when the statutory limitations period for that cause of action cannot be waived, restricted or otherwise limited by you.
VI. MISCELLANEOUS a. Privacy. We are not liable for any lack of privacy which may be experienced with regard to the Service. You authorize our monitoring and recording of calls to us concerning your account or the Service and consent to our use of automatic dialing equipment to contact you. We have the right to intercept and disclose any transmission over our facilities in order to protect our rights or property.
b. Assignment. We may assign all or part of this Agreement without such assignment being considered a change to the Agreement, and without notice to you. We are then released from all liability. You may not assign this Agreement without our prior written consent.
c. Notices. We may send you notices by mail or electronic means, in our sole discretion. Notices to you shall be effective 1) 3 days following the date deposited in the U.S. Mail or delivered to a nationally recognized courier or delivery service, postage prepaid and addressed to your address as kept in our files and/or 2) immediately upon our transmission using an electronic means such as e-mail or text messaging service. You are responsible for notifying us of any changes in your mailing or e-mail address. Written notice to us shall be effective when directed to our Customer Service Department (at the mailing address listed on our website) and received by us. Your notice must contain specific information adequate to identify you and your Service. Oral and electronic notices shall be deemed effective on the date reflected in our records.
d. Entire Agreement. These Terms and Conditions, together with the Sales Information, represent the entire agreement between you and us, which may only be amended as described in this Agreement. This Agreement supersedes any inconsistent or additional representations made to you by any of our representatives, agents or dealers. If any part of this Agreement is found invalid, the balance of the Agreement remains enforceable. If, at any time, we do not enforce any right or remedy available under this Agreement, that failure is not a waiver of our right to enforce the right or remedy at a later time. Copied, microfiched, scanned or other duplicate or electronic images of this Agreement are admissible for all purposes.
e. Governing Laws. This Agreement is subject to applicable federal laws, federal or state tariffs, if any, and the laws of the state associated with the Number. Where our Service terms and conditions are regulated by a state agency or the FCC, the regulations are available for your inspection; if there is any inconsistency between this Agreement and those regulations, this Agreement shall be deemed amended as necessary to conform to such regulations.
f. Capacity. You represent that you are legally competent to enter into this Agreement, and that you are not aware of any disability that would prevent you from entering into this Agreement.
g. You shall acquire no proprietary interest in the Number assigned by H2O Wireless for its use, except for any rights federal law grants.
h. The supplier of Services to H2O Wireless shall have no liability whatsoever for the losses, claims or damages for any cause whatsoever, including but not limited to any failure or disruption of Services provided hereunder, regardless of the form of action, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, You shall not be deemed a third-party beneficiary of any contract between H2O Wireless and the underlying carrier.

At Locus Telecommunications, we understand that privacy is important and we are strongly committed to protecting the privacy of our customers and visitors to our website. The following information is designed to help you better understand the information we gather from our site and service, how we handle the information once we gather it, whether we disclose it to anyone, and the choices you have regarding our use of, and your ability to correct, the information. Please note that this Privacy Policy applies only to this site (www.H2OWirelessService.com) and the sites associated with our brands not necessarily to other companies' or organizations' websites to which we link, even if they market or use Locus Products. By visiting this site or using any of our products you are accepting the practices described in this Privacy Policy.
Information Collection and Use Our primary goal in collecting personal information is to provide you with a smooth, efficient, and customized experience. This allows us to provide features that most likely meet your needs, and to customize our service to make your experience easier.
Aggregate Data We gather certain usage information like the number and frequency of visitors to this site. This information may include which URL you just came from, which URL you next go to, what browser you are using, and your IP address. We only use such data in the aggregate. This collective data helps us determine how much our customers use parts of the site, and do internal research on our users' demographics, interests, and behavior to better understand and serve you. This type of aggregated, non-personally identifiable information may also be collected by third parties that help us run our services. In addition, we aggregate data and disclose such information in a non-personally identifiable manner to advertisers and other third parties for marketing and promotional purposes.
Personally Identifiable Information We also request information about you, such as your name, address, phone number and email address ("personally identifiable information"). We seek such information to provide products and/or services that more closely reflect your preferences. In addition, we may use such information to improve our marketing and promotional efforts, to analyze site usage, improve our content and product offerings, and customize our site's content, layout and services. If you choose, we may use information to contact you and deliver information to you.
Generally, we only share personally identifiable information with other entities if you specifically agree to permit such sharing. However, unless you specifically decline, we may share personally identifiable information with certain third parties with whom we contract to provide services or jointly-branded products. By accepting this Privacy Policy or by purchasing or using our products or our jointly-branded products, you expressly agree to such sharing of information.
We may use third party service providers to facilitate our services and therefore we may provide some of your personally identifiable information directly to them. In addition, we employ other companies and individuals to perform functions on our behalf. Examples include fulfilling orders, delivering packages, sending postal mail and email, removing repetitive information from customer lists, analyzing data, providing marketing assistance, processing credit card payments and providing Customer Care. They have access to personally identifiable information and may use it as needed to perform their functions, but may not use it for any other purpose, except that they may aggregate your personally identifiable information with similar information of other customers in a manner that does not personally identify you.
Locus Telecommunications cooperates with law enforcement inquiries, as well as other third parties, to enforce laws, such as intellectual property rights, fraud and other rights. We can (and you authorize us to) disclose any information about you to law enforcement or other government officials as we, in our sole discretion, believe necessary or appropriate, in connection with an investigation of fraud, intellectual property infringements, or other activity that is illegal or may expose us or you to liability.

Policy Towards Children Locus Telecommunications is concerned about the safety and privacy of children who use the Internet. Consistent with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998, we will never knowingly request personally identifiable information from anyone under the age of 13 without prior verifiable parental consent. If we become aware that a child under 13 has provided us with personally identifiable information without verifiable parental consent, we will use our best efforts to remove such information from our files.
Other Information Collectors Except as otherwise expressly included in this privacy policy, this document only addresses the use and disclosure of information we collect from you. Since Locus Telecommunications does not control the privacy policies of third parties, some of whose services may be offered on our site, you are subject to the privacy policies of those third parties. We encourage you to ask questions before you disclose your personal information to others.
Security Locus Telecommunications uses standard industry practices to safeguard the confidentiality of your personally identifiable information. Locus Telecommunications treats data as an asset that must be protected against loss and unauthorized access.
