for the record I called verizion and checked the MEID # and the lady said mine wasnt stolen and should activate fine. I dont know whats going on.
Two other things I know of can prevent an activation.
1) ESN can be locked because it is still associated by an account that is not in good standing (unpaid)
2) Your account may have changes blocked due to an existing pending change (this can be an error, changes can get stuck in the system, but CS should be able to see it if they look).
