Frequently Asked Questions

How Secure is the LowPriceWireless.com site?  What happens when I put my credit card number into your site to pay my pager bill or buy a pager or cellphone?

When ordering by Internet, we electronically scramble the data through SSL encryption codes. Your Internet browser must support Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption and we recommend that it support 128-bit encryption strength. Microsoft Internet Explorer version 3.0 or higher or Netscape Navigator version 3.0 or higher will be able to submit an order here.

Please explain the steps taken to set up my pager so it will work in my city, and how will it be shipped?

First, we take the pager you've selected out of our inventory of high quality pagers.  Via a computer interface with one of the largest paging carriers in the country (LowPriceWireless.com is affiliated with the 10 largest and most dependable paging carriers in the United States), your pager is activated.  The computer will select a pager number randomly, based on the information you've provided (area code, city in which you live), and will activate your pager with wide area coverage in your home area (example: if you live in Los Angeles, your pager would be activated with Southern California coverage which includes southern cities such as San Diego, eastern cities such as Palm Springs, and north to Santa Barbara).  Any other options you desired would also be activated at that time (i.e. voicemail, nationwide roaming, etc.).

Pagers are shipped, including battery, instruction manual, and paperwork.  Typically, your pager will be sent via the United States Postal Service, and will be insured.  Overnight shipping is available.

What happens if I move?

When you purchase your pager, you have two options.  You may take the regional special, capable of being reactivated for any area in the original region of purchase, or you can buy a pager with a nationwide frequency (the same cost, but slightly more for added features).  If you think you'll be moving, it is advisable to purchase a pager already on a  nationwide frequency, there is no charge for the update when you move to a new area.  Via a very sophisticated computerized system, your pager's number will be changed and your home coverage area will now be your new calling area. Please contact us with any questions you may still have in this regard.   We want you, our customer, to be completely satisfied with your paging service, and will provide a pager and service perfectly suitable for your special needs.

Why buy a pager when I have a cellular phone?

We're in the cellular phone business, and we encourage our clients to use both technologies for the following reasons:

• Cellular signals aren't as reliable or as dependable as pager signals.

• Cellular phone costs remain substantially higher than paging.

• Cellular phone service requires a credit check and a long term contract, neither of which is required to acquire a pager.

• Many people simply forget to put their cellular phone on a charge, and they find themselves unreachable.  With Flex technology, battery life in most pagers is 5 times longer than in years past, and most consumers leave their pagers on, 24/7, and remain in touch.
