Advice needed on New LG Solo Tracfone

I activated my new phone which was easy, but when I tried to call my own landline I get a message that I am roaming and need to enter a pin #.  I have had at least 6 different Tracfones over the years with no issues.  I tried customer support but couldn't get through.  Anyone know how to fix this?  I'm not real phone savvy.  Thanks.

This happened to me once when activating a Tracfone and it actually had not yet finished the activation process.  I waited 20 min., turned it off and on, then tried a call and it worked fine.  HTH, good luck; it can be so frustrating sometimes!

 

You can tell online when it is activated on your account page.

Thanks, I'll try that.
