Cannot open a Claro account without a Claro phone
[QUOTE=Gabacho;2877012]Why does this seem to be so difficult for you guys? Seems like every couple months someone posts about this.
Everytime you buy a new phone or bring in a phone from out of country you have to register the IMEI of said phone. Not sure about Movistar but with Tigo and Claro you can do this yourself within the miTigo or mi Claro app.
It is a relatively simple process that asks for your cedula number if you are a citizen or passport number if you are a foreigner. There is no need to have someone from the cell phone store do it for you and there is no need to keep buying a new sim card every few months. I have had the same Tigo sim card now since early 2022 and I have used it in various different phones.
[/QUOTE]I am calling BS on this. It is not a relatively simple process! I have tried for a half an hour and Claro App will not let me get through the registration process by using my US cell number and passport. You have to have a Claro number or a Claro Sim card in order to create an account! That is why we are having so much trouble with it. My next trip down I will get a Claro Sim card and try again.
I just tried again to register , this time on the on Tigo app and same thing, it refused to let me. So apparently you can bring a US phone in to the country but you have to have an existing Claro or Tigo number in order to register the new phone that you just brought in from the US.
