After I got my EKIT e-mail, I turned on the phone in Global mode. A text message came in that said to turn the phone off and on and then enter the U.S. code (2 plus the pin code) for cheaper calls. But before I did that, I logged on to my account using the UK number. My online account showed that a new US number had been assigned ( I don't know when it happened).

Anyway, I turned the phone on in US mode and the new US number was activated and working. I never actually did anything to activate it. FYI....it was a Seattle number rather than my previous California number.
