I was told after you purchase a cell phone it takes over 300.00 American dollars and 15 business days to turn it on, true or false ??
Does it take 15 business days to have a cell phone turned on??

That would be false.
If you purchase a phone and SIM in Colombia, you can begin using it immediately. (You may have to spend a few minutes setting up the phone.)
SIM cards are cheap--around $5,000 last time I purchased one--and most people have prepaid plans where you go to a store and "recharge" the phone for x number of pesos.
