PagePlus used to have some authorized retailers, there was one in Cupertino, but after Carlos Slim's América Móvil acquired them, the store in Cupertino dropped PagePlus. I know that they've been reducing commissions. See <https://www.pagepluscellular.com/dealers/> PagePlus isn't a bad deal at $36 (with autopay) for 3GB of high-speed data and unlimited talk and text. Boom is $40 for 5GB of data. I am currently on Cricket and have never been in a Cricket store. It's much more expensive to start service if you go to a Cricket store (all franchises) than if you go direct or through a dealer that will set you up remotely. I'm sure that a Page Plus dealer, if any actually still exist, will charge you for whatever it is you need them to do. AT&T isn't quite as good as Verizon, but I've been fine with Cricket, and I get 5 lines with 4GB of data per line, for $100.
