I currently have this phone but need to replace it due to issues. Will my current SIM card work in this new phone since it's the same phone and model? I really don't want to extend my contract with At&amp;t, which is what customer service suggested so they...

I don't see why not. I switched from a Pantech Ease with a broken screen to another I bought on amazon. All I had to do was swap the sim. You should make sure that the phone is from the same carrier (ie. AT&T) in case your original one came from another carrier like T-Mobile.

If the two SIM cards are the same you should be able to put your old card in the new phone. If not, then take both phones to an AT&T; wireless service center and see if they will help. The Z221 that I bought was for my Mom and I was able to put the sim from her old AT&T; phone on my family plan in the new Z221 and it worked.

As others have said, it should work on your phone. You may still have to call AT&T; though as the phone I had installed it in would call fine but you couldn't send or receive any texts. I called AT&T; help and found that the phone must still be connected to the new card as far as AT&T; is concerned, so I had thought just put a card in and go but that doesn't necessarily mean you can do that! But size wise it should work fine!

Did you ever find the answer to this question??? I am trying to upgrade my SECONDARY line & it's forcing me to choose a plan. I still want to stay on the family plan. Can I still purchase this phone as an upgrade? HELP!!!

When I put a sim card in my phone, it didn't show it was locked, but it did have a problem with it wanting to use att menu not consumer cellular, is t and t compatible with at and t USA? I found this phone was made for ATT service and you need to find someone with your system at your providers office they sould be able to make it work..

YES! You can just put your current sim card in that you have now. That's what I did.and I have AT&T.;

If your current phone is similar to just purchased phone than no problem, but if its an older model like Galaxy 4g than new sim card is needed.

Yes- the phone works with other SIM cards. I use Straight Talk,but it runs off of AT&T; towers.As long as the provider has service in your area, you should be good to go!

I have the AT&T; version but a friend of mine picked the T Mobile version and the SIM card was bad so he called TMobile and they sent a new SIM card. after that his phone worked GREAT. Hope this helps.

I am almost positive that you will be able to use that SIM card. I was told that any At&T card can work in any At&T phone. However, if the one phone is not 3g, then you will have some limitations. Since you are going from 3g to 3g, you should be ok. I was ok when I switched over to this phone. I had an intermediate phone that was AT&T that was not 3g, i could not make international phone calls. So, I got this Pantech and am getting international phone call capability.

We tried our existing SIM card but it didn't work. Then we took it to AT&T; and they couldn't make it work. AT&T; told us we bought a defective phone. I contacted the company I purchased it from and they processed a refund for us. So buyer beware - a used phone may or may not work for any number of reasons. Ideally, the SIM should be transferable as long as the phone and the SIM are issued by the same carrier. Hope that helps.

IThis phone will not work with the existing sims because it was made for sims which have a large circuit board. T Mobil prior to 2007 had a different SIM card design of teh same dimensions but teh new ones have a smaller circuit board design ( in gold) and thats why they do not work. I think most cell Companies have become smart and to prevent switching develop SIMS that are compatible for their service. I returned mine. A Tmobile technician showed me the reason why it does not work.

the sim card i used was from att so you can use a card from a different carrier as long as its supported by the phone. I think on the product page it tells you which phone services it supports.

I am sorry but I have never used mine and have given away my phone. However I still have the SIM and would also appreciate knowing if it will work in any phone, or if there is a time limit on its activation.

I use three different sim cards in my phone depending what country I am in at the time. If you are already with AT&T; they can fix you up with a new card with your old number. No problem.

My parents had AT&T; and we switched the SIM card with no issues. It's lightweight very basic good for my senior parents. They have been happy with it. I called their provider to see if it was compatible before we bought, I had to give them the phone info to check. You could probably call your phone company to verify. Hope that helps :)
