How Do I Add a Line to My Metro PCS Account by Phone?
Customers can call Metro PCS Customer Service to speak with an agent and add the line over the phone. Follow the voice prompts until you connect with an agent. Once connected, tell them you'd like to add to your existing account. Then, the customer service agent will walk you through the process.
Once your phone arrives in the mail, you'll need to activate your additional metro phone line using the instructions included with the phone. Contact Metro PCS with any questions or concerns.
How Do I Add a Line to My Metro PCS Account in Store?
If you prefer talking to a Metro PCS representative in person, you can always stop by a Metro store. If you don't have a phone compatible with Metro's GSM network, you can check out available devices. A sales rep can also answer any question you may have regarding the process. Plus, you won't have to wait for your phone through the mail or go through the activation process, as you would if you added a line by phone or online.
How Do I Add a Line to My Metro PCS Account Online?
If you already have a compatible phone or you don't mind the wait, you can add a line by logging in to your Metro PCS account using your phone number and PIN associated with your account. For security reasons, Metro will text you a six-digital code the first time you log into your account.
You can find the login page by clicking the link on the Metro PCS website in the upper right-hand corner, or by clicking here. Once logged in, you can also view your data and hotspot usage of each line. For your account page, you'll find an "Add a Line" option. The website will provide instructions that walk you through the process and you will need to activate your additional metro phone line once it arrives in the mail.
You can view available plans and their prices on the Metro PCS website.
