My phone was stolen today. I need to replace it with a basic phone. I am currently on a Verizon family plan. Can I transfer this phone?

I was able to use them on our family plan. Had no problem with activation and the kids are using them.

Yes, you should be able to transfer it. We replaced broken phones with this phone, on our Verizon plan. It is a good value, inexpensive and provides the basics of talk, text, and pictures. Plus, by buying it from Amazon, you are not extending your contract!

It worked for my niece. Safest thing us to call you're phone provider. Usually they charge a fee to activate a new phone. Move cost $10 on Verizon

As far as I know u should be able to. We took the phone to our local Verizon store, and they did it all for us.... At no charge.

You would have to contact your service provider...and they will nedd the number under the battery.... But you can usually only do that if you are using the same provider. I dont think you can switch carriers can keep the same number.But I could be wrong. Anycase you would have to contact your service provider....

i broke my verizon phone, still under contract. can i use this one with my current line/number?

Yes. Your new phone will be covered by the plan you already have with Verizon. I am a Verizon customer and when I bought a Samsung Convoy U640 online I just followed the set up procedure on the phone and it automatically became my Verizon phone. I didn't even have to go to or call Verizon. You will need to transfer your contact numbers from your old phone to your new one yourself, one at a time. If this is too onerous you can take your new phone to Verizon and they will do it for you. They don't charge for this service. They will also transfer your photos. I just downloaded mine from my old phone to my computer.

Yes, that's what my daughter did. She broke the phone she had, but was still under contract, so she just took the new phone to the Verizon store and had them swap it over.

Yes because what u move to the new phone is you sim card if you want to use it as a replacement phone....if you going to use it as a prepaid u need to contact tmobile to see if they can tranfer the old number to use it prepaid

As long as your old phone was a tracfone, then you can move it over to the new one. I'm not sure about phones from a different plan.

Yes, most definetly all you have to do is set-up your new phone!! just call 611 on your Verizon handset and follow the promps and that's it. Its that simple!!! good-luck with your new phone.

No, this isn't a pre-paid phone. You have to have it activated by Verizon. They'll assign it a new number or transfer an existing number you have on your old phone.

Yes, just put your SIM card in from your old phone and go. I did the same thing after purchasing this phone.

My phone was a "post paid" that I put on my existing plan as a replacement one after getting it washed. I believe that they may be available as a prepaid version, but I was only looking for one to use on my existing plan and the description was fairly clear on that. It may also be possible to "convert" one, I am not sure, but I had good luck with talking with the Verizon people on some of these things as they understood that in my case buying a phone from someone else would be the better way for me to go in my situation. (they even suggested that I consider a used phone)

I bought this one a while ago. It was used from a private seller, and therefore had nothing to do with my contract. Unless Sprint added some silly rule (I just switched to Family Mobile) about activating a different phone, you should be able to use it as a replacement, no problem.....although, I'd be prepared to buy a new battery for it, if I were you. Like alot of used phones, the one in mine was D.O.N.E., DONE!

This was for a new line so I'm not real sure, but you should be able to use Verizon back up assistant to back up contacts and messages and transfer the majorits of information over.

If the phone you are buying was on verizon before then yes. Just go to a verizon store and have the phones swapped on your account. Make sure you wipe your old phone if you sell ir.

When I lost mine, I switched. But the guy who helped me set it up phone at the Verizon told me that the phone can be set either way. Some of them might not know how. And the incentives they have may lead them to obfuscate.
