Can you receive phone calls on this phone? How do you prepay? How many minutes come with the phone? Does it have an assigned phone number?

Yes it is a phone that receives and makes calls. It's been a while since I actually bought this phone but, I don't recall it having a simple card of any sort. May need to purchase something extra to get the pre paid to work.

I bought the phone from amazon. I already had a sim card in my previous phone I got from T-mobile and just put the card in this phone. You have to go into a store that handles T-Mobile if you are not already signed up. They will sell you 1000 minutes for $100 or smaller amounts of minutes for less. Look at T-mobile website for "no contract" info. No minutes come with phone from amazon. Tmobile will assign you a phone # when you purchase minutes.

Once you receive the phone you will need to either go to a T-Mobile dealer or go online to T-mobile.com, set up an account and get a SIM card. You can pick from several plans with different per min costs. They will give you a phone number to use. Once you install the SIM card the phone will start working.

This is not a prepaid phone and does not come with a sim card. It works with an AT&T; contract or you can by an AT&T; sim card for a certain amount of time Example: 1 year (365 days) is $100.00. Hope this helps.

to receive, just push talkto initiate a call may take a bit more. its basically like having a home cordless phone, most the same rules apply

If you have touch tone service with your provider, it works like any other phone. It also has an amplification button for those that need it louder. There isn't any call waiting or address books. It's a basic telephone.

That Call Block is a great feature ... you will be glad you have it! Thankfully there is no extra fee for it :)) .. just the cost to the phone company for the caller id, which I personally think is worth the money (whatever it is .. it's so mixed into the bill I'm really not sure What it is LOL) ... Enjoy your new phone!

Yes the phone comes in the box just like it does when you buy it in the phone store. The manual and accessories are included. You will love this phone. You do not have to use it as a prepaid phone. Just install your sim card and you are good to go. If you take it to the phone store they will transfer your data for no charge. Great value for the price!

Its doesn't natively make or receive calls. However you can if you download voip programs. Yes it takes att sim and once activated it has a number when can be used to send and receive text messages

Not sure. I know the number and sometimes the name of the caller comes up on a normal call but unsure about call waiting. I think so, but I don't use the phone very much. Usually talk on my cell. Sorry!

I think you can. I don't. But when someone is on the phone another person can make and receive calls to the same number. It's pretty cool. I hope this answer helps :)

Ours came with 300 minutes. If it is ordered new it should come that way and you should get those minutes when you activate it. Be sure to ask for it as who does this for you may not know you get them but if you tell them they will do it for you. Good luck. We each have had these phones for several years and had very good luck with them.

It's not a prepaid phone. Is UNLOCKED- which means that this phone can be used as a replacemant phone for under contract, or as a prepaid phone. IN bouth cases you will need the SIM card : An used sim card if you do have previous contract or a New sim card that you dont have one, and you can buy for $10 prepaid near you. Its a good mobile but it does not come with a sim card.

It's not a prepaid phone. I don't know if you can use it with a current 2 year contract or not. When I bought mine it came with a year's warranty but after a couple of months I had to send it back for malfunctioning. They don't send new phones, just refurbished ones even if you buy insurance. Took me three phones to get one to work right.

Sorry, I have the phone installed in my vacation home on the Cape and the owner's manual is there as well. It is caller ID capable, but not sure on the call waiting feature.

You need a base phone too. I made the mistake of ordering this phone and then had to order the base so get the base first. It comes with phones. Yes it does do call waiting.

i bought as a prepaid only phone. Then added minutes through a prepaid card I got at Walmart. Can also add time onine. No activation fee.

Same here - I guess that is how it works since it is a call center phone. It sucks though and customer service is non existent. The consolation is it is good for outbound calls. You can use a 2 way phone splitter and just use it for calling out.
