I have an unlimited data plan with Verizon. If I activate this phone, will I still be able to keep that plan?

Yes, you will keep your plan. You lose it if you upgrade(get a new phone) from Verizon.

I have a Verizon family plan (not offered anymore) with 1400 minutes unlimited text and unlimited data. I bought a phone off of Amazon and activated it at a Verizon store with no change in my plan. Verizon WILL change your plan if you buy a phone through them.

I believe the response from James is spot on, but I don't work for Verizon, so I can't be positive.

It should stay the same unless you make a change....adding a new phone (not replacing an existing one) will change you plan..... if you already have a android phone you can just swap the sim card over and the phone will work fine......if not you will have to get Verizon involved and probably lose the unlimited plan

yes you can add it to your verizon plan. if it is a new prepaid verizon phone you can not. however if it is a prepaid and was activated over six months ago you can.

There would be no added cost to your monthly bill if you changed from your current phone to this one. If you have trouble activating the phone often your local Verizon store personnel will assist you at no charge.

Everything I've read from Verizon says yes, but I would take this phone to a VZW store before activating it and have them help with the transfer.

I bought this phone for my mother and she has a contract with verizon, so the answer is yes, you can use it as a contract phone. Just bring it to your phone company and tell them you want that phone activated

I am beyond frustrated. I just bought this phone after seeing all the answers here & thinking I could just transfer my current pre-paid plan w/o the data plan. I spoke with a supervisor at Verizon. She said there is NO way this phone can be activated w/o a data plan. Verizon is trying to phase these older models out but if you are willing to pay a minimum of $50/mo for the data plan, you can activate it. She said any plan w/o a data plan will not be supported on this phone & she tried numerous ways to get around that to no avail. I don't know that I would have better luck taking it to a Verizon store. Sounded pretty hopeless. Any comments or tips anyone? I am beyond frustrated.

The phone is ready to activate, but you will need to provide a Verizon SIM. Verizon will provide one to you if you are a current or new Verizon customer. Thanks!

None what-so-ever. It can only be used to replace a defective unit for a service previously entered into. Verizon no longer offers the 3GB service, but if you have it, keep it because it's unlimited monthly useage. You don't get those deal anymore.

You have to have a data package. It's a lie that the phone doesn't need data. Without it you can't activate it.
1430331
Yes you can. When you get the phone in the mail there will be instructions to activate it...or you can take it to verizon and they can do it for free

It is still unlimited data. They charge $39.99 for the slower speed & $54.99 for faster speed, but with either, you get unlimited data. I should add that I only did the activation online, not in a store, so stores might have different pricing.

No. I tried that. The ESN is bad so this phone is unable to activate with Verizon. I had to return the phone.

Yes,just take it to Verizon & have then activate it for you.Word of warning this phone is supposed to be ultra tough,I dropped mine from waist height & it's been a problem ever since.Dropped my old Motorola off of 12 ft. ladders & it kept on ticking.

If you had the unlimited plan with Verizon prior to getting this, then you can continue the unlimited plan with this device. I went from a wireless broadband stick to this device and my plan carried over. Note: A 4G product would not carry the unlimited plan as it was apparently never an option.

I had unlimited data on Verizon before they got rid of unlimited. I took this to my Verizon store and I got to keep my plan without a contract! Hope this helped!

Yes you can just transfer your number to this phone. Your verizon plan just covers "data" makes no difference which phone you are using, as long as it is a smart phone which accesses the internet.

Your phone will not work for Verizon but the one you're trying to buy it should work without any problem activating it under Verizon network,
