Do you have to have a sim card to use the phone??? I have a month to month plan already that doesnt use a sim, wanted to transfer that service over

Straight talk don't need a sim card, just give them the number under the battery and they can hook you up. When you bring your own phone they will give you 5g of data after the first month and there after that 2g for the remaining month, $ 47.95.

Yes you need a sim card even then you're locked out. I would suggest family mobile which is only 43.00 a month with a sim card . buy the BLU. Its an amazing phone

This is Verizon phone which does not need SIM card. On the other hand, this phone has an option to insert a SIM card to use it abroad. Refurbished phone we have on sale does not include SIM card in the package.

No.. I never used a SIM card.. I think the option to buy one and insert it is there.

It requires microSIM. After you put in the Sim card it will require activation from the service provider and you shiuld be good to go with same phone number and data.

My results were that I waited till the very last week to transfer phones. You will loose the time left no matter when you trade out phones. No carry over at end of month either. I get the $50.00 card and always give up 30-40,000 minutes every month. Best deal I have found and no contract.

The iPhone don't use a traditional sim card, like a Droid phone uses. If you purchase an iPhone that is licensed for Verizon, you won't have a problem transferring service over... done it many times for my daughters service since she goes thru iPhones like McNuggets.

It does not come with a sim card. You would have to get that through your Cell phone provider...

No. It must have a sim card, but Verizon won't charge you for a sim card. Least they didn't charge me for mine. But they won't activate it on the pay as you go, that plan is 3g and lesser.

It requires a cell phone plan. You have to put a SIM card in it. I was able to add it to my T-Mobile family plan for $10 a month. This was far cheaper than a land line option for me, which is why I went with it.

No. You will have to purchase a Sim card and data plan from your cell phone provider. This will be in addition to your cell phone plan even if you have unlimited data.

Yes it takes a SIM card. I had to go get an updated one from Verizon as my old sim was too small. Verizon guys you a new sim for free.

I went with AT&T; and I pay monthly, but you can also do a contract. There are other companies out there that use AT&T; networking that you can also use if you're looking for a no contract deal. This phone is small in size and does not com with a sim card, but AT&T; gave me one free when I signed up with them, plus they downloaded all my info. Oh and I should mention this is a AT&T; phone, so u will have to use them, but I'm still very happy with this phone!! Hope this helps!! I would also like to add that this phone does have a back lit keyboard.....I finally figured it out!! LOL

Julie, I don't know what you mean. As previous responded, you have to go to a T-Mobile or an AT&T; module in order to purchase the SIM card.Cheers,

This was one of favorite and the last feature phone that I have. You should switch to tmobile or one of those month to month service. Just get the Sims card and opt for no data plan.

Hi Kathi, Since this is unlocked you don't need to pay any monthly fees. You still need a data line though to get it to work and that will require a monthly fee, from your operator (AT&T;, T-Mobile, etc...).

Thanks for the input Cinder Ella Good to know the wifi operated without a sim card.On another forum someone posted that when they bought this phone -not directly from their phone service company- and they put their old sim card in it, the phone company recognized the new phone and immediately upgraded their service to include a data plan. Maybe they were actually using the data plan, which I didn't think could be done without a sim card that includes data service.

Not in my case. I had a prepaid T-Mobile phone already. I just transferred the SIM card to the new phone.
