Careful, they could have taken your ESN''s to activate the stolen ones they have and return your handsets.

Sure, verifying through the carrier is always the best way if you're unsure about a phone's status, or history.
But be sure to call and verify 2 or more times as CSRs for Sprint, and Verizon are also paid by commission. Meaning, if they activate a new account, and or sell a brand new phone, they make money off that.
In turn, they will tell you a clean ESN phone is not clean, just to make a sale.
CheckESNFree.com is linked directly to Verizon, and Sprint's databases. The ESN, MEID, and IMEI is checked via a remote API authorized by the carriers.
When the ESN/MEID/IMEI was checked, did you enter it correctly? If it was an IMEI, you can remove the last digit which will then give you the phone's 14 digit MEID HEX.
If you have trouble using CheckESNFree.com, feel free to contact me anytime, and please include the provider and ESN being checked.
