is this a prepaid phone? Can I immediately use it with a current 2 year contract with verizon? Is there any type of warranty?

It's not a prepaid phone. I don't know if you can use it with a current 2 year contract or not. When I bought mine it came with a year's warranty but after a couple of months I had to send it back for malfunctioning. They don't send new phones, just refurbished ones even if you buy insurance. Took me three phones to get one to work right.

Yes it is a prepaid phone. When i called verizon you could use phone but had to pay. That would not work for me because i was already paying for a line. Didnt want pay twice

The one we purchased was for verizon wireless and it's considered a basic so you don't have to get a data plan if you don't want it but you can get it! Just make sure that it states it's for verizon! Also if you buy a phone out right you wi not have to redo another 2 year contract if you don't want to! I hope I have answered what you were asking !

Well, I would be 99% sure you can use this phone on your Verizon plan but just to be sure, I'd check w. Verizon. It's definitely a Verizon branded phone out of the box but it may be a prepaid phone (I use it on the PagePlus prepaid network which operates on Verizon's network). I can tell you all the features like Mobile Web and Backup Assistant show up on this phone as if it were a Verizon phone. Best bet on Amazon's site would probably be to search for Verizon phones but not prepaid phones and see if this model comes up. I absolutely love this phone, by the way, particularly for the nice physical keyboard for texting.

It is not a prepaid model. Ours was activated immediately we just went to the Verizon store and it was easy! Good luck.

No, not prepaid. If you have an existing verizon conrtact and your phone brakes, then you would be able to activate this unlocked phone without any change to your contract, or service. This is easily done on their website.

I did not purchase this phone as a prepaid. Verizon is the wireless service we use and it was compatible with that service.

Actually, just 2 weeks ago, I activated my old one for my youngest daughter as a prepaid phone. She has had no problems using it as prepaid. I went to a corporate store before I activated it and they said it's not a problem to activate them as prepaid.

It is a verizon phone but I use it with page plus w is a prepaid sub contractor to verizon and much cheaper..I've been with them for five years...It is no longer made so it is an old model but it is heavy..they newer lighter plastic phones don't hold up if dropped, etc.

Only if you purchase the phone through here as verizon doesnt offer this phone as a contract phone anymore. Its not a new upcoming phone

It is a prepaid phone which is basically means just buying those prepaid cards in the store and adding them to your prepaid account. If you already have a plan with Verizon, you can't use it with your plan unless you have been using it as a prepaid phone for at least 6 months. I know it's weird but that's what they told me when I tried to add it to my plan after using it as a prepaid phone for only 3 months. And if you do add it after the 6 months, you don't have start a new contract. Those contracts are usually only for when you are buying a phone from Verizon for a discounted price. Hope that helps. Your best bet is to call Verizon and find out what will work best for depending on your situation. :)

Wouldnt recommended this phone for either prepaid or contract. It is a terrible phone not worth nearly the price you'll be paying for it. But I don't know if is a contract phone, but I bet it is.

I used it for my Verizon contract account. I think they have different options for purchasing this phone.

Hello,The phone is pretty new, less than a year. I got it when I returned the old one right before the warranty ran out. Yes the phone no longer has warranty. Thanks, Difybooks

I would go through Verizon to get this phone. As long as your contract is up, it will give you the option of signing up again for 1 or 2 years. And since this would be re-signing up for a contract, you will get the discounted price to upgrade your phone. I am not sure how Amazon does the upgrades and therefore would suggest going through Verizon for that. Hope this helped.

I f you purchase the phone like I did through Amazon there is no contract. Plus the new Convoy 2 that I purchased was less expensive through Amazon then if I had purchased it at Verizon with an upgrade and a 2 year contract. By the way the phone is great.
