I have a prepaid phone now from Verizon, It's a very old plan, I pay $16.70 each month for my phone, Can I use this phone under the same plan?

Be careful dealing with Verizon all phone company's will do every thing possible to kill your plan so you pay more . But I think this phone is great and if you by your own phone your plan being prepaid should stay the same . This phone i was unable to use it for the fact is it a prepaid and I have a family plan and they would not let me us it so I bought the same phone for my plan and then my contract stays the same . Do your self a favor and stop by a Verizon store and ask if your phone being changed would affect your monthly payment ? Better safe than sorry

I don't know. I returned the phone because I have a contract line and it doesn't work on a contract line.

I get the feeling even Verizon doesn't know what they do these days! I loved them under the contracts, but they have proven to be a nightmare in the prepaid category. Frankly, they don't make much sense. My best answer to you is to contact Verizon and ask before you put any money into a new phone. Better safe than sorry when it comes to this. Good luck and, by the way, have a wonderful holiday season!

I bought it for that reason and NO you can't. I confused me & I wish I had asked first. I bought it for my Dad because he lost his phone. We couldn't use it. They(Verizon) he could use it 60 days after their plan ended if he wanted a pre-paid option. Its still in the box!

I use my phone with my Verizon plan. I replaced my earlier cell phone when it wore out. You would need to check with Verizon to see if they will allow you to switch phones on your existing account without upgrading to a higher-priced plan. Depending on your plan It may require you to go to a supervisory level at Verizon for the approval. I ended up telling them I would cancel my plan and just buy a SIM card if I couldn't use the replacement phone on the cheap plan I have. They realized I wasn't bluffing and activated this phone in the account. I like the phone OK. The only down-side is the ringer is not really loud, so I keep it turned all of the way up and miss a few calls when I am in a noisy environment.

Yes! And it's a sticky way to use the Pre-paid process. Verizon want you to take on a $50.00/month usage plan, but after 6 months, you can have them change it to your current Verizon plan.

Michel, not sure if this will work for a pre-paid plan. If it does, it would have to be through Verizon. You can call Verizon and ask them if they'd allow you to run this phone on a pre-paid plan.

no just pop in your sim and use What ever plan that's available . I used prepaid and I didn't need the data but it's ok to have . It's more of a feature phone like

Rose I think you are asking me about the pre paid plan and if you are you have to use a Verizon prepaid card because the phone is Verizon. I hope this helps you and if I misunderstood your question please let me know. I will say that the phone is very simple to use and is a great phone and service. Denise

As long as its not a prepaid phone you can. I bought the same phone on amazon. When I got it I took it to Verizon and they activated it for me. I kept my same number too. But this one says prepaid. Try searching for the one that's not prepaid

My husband uses his everyday on Verizon prepay. It was originally used on contract and when that expired we went to prepay.

I think you can use it with a prepaid plan but not totally sure. I use it with my free 250 minutes I get a month.

I am assuming you mean "prepaid" phone. I currently use it through Verizon on a contract I pay monthly. I do not know if it can be used as a prepaid 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. :)

I have been using the phone with a prepaid monthly plan. (Costs me about $54.) I would call their customer service regarding phone cards. And while this is generally a great phone, Verizon customer service SUCKS in my experience. And on top of that, I was actually told by a Verizon sales clerk at one of their stores that prepaid phones utilize fewer cellular towers, which may explain why my phone has little to no reception in an area, while my husband's T-Mobile prepaid phone was fine.

i'm not sure if it can be used as a prepay, we used it as part of our verizon contract.

No, they told me at verizon that you have to use it as a prepay for 6 month before you can use it with an existing number

The title for this item states for "postpaid plans", so I'm thinking maybe it won't work for prepaid. I would contact the seller, because Verizon may not even know, unless you can give them the meid # of the phone you're wanting to set up. I have a Verizon account and am not on a "pay as you go", so I can't say for sure either.Thanks, Deb
