That's exactly what I did. No problem at all. Needed a new sim card but they didn't charge me for it :0)

Yes. I brought the phone to a Verizon store and they put in a new SIM card and activated it.

I bought this phone a few months ago and already had a data plan from verizon. When I got the phone I just called verizon to have them help me activate it

Good question. I bought one thinking i could use it on my verizon family plan only to be told by verizon that the phone was a pre-paid phone only and could not be activated on my family plan. if you can find out from amazon if the phone is a pre-paid only that's your best bet.

This phone was originally released by Verizon/LG for contract plans. However, since it is a Verizon branded device you should have no problem activating it on their pre-paid service. See the Verizon FAQ page for more details: http://support.verizonwireless.com/faqs/Wireless%20Service/ctia_checklist.html either way, I think it would be in your best interest to contact Verizon directly to be absolutely sure.

Yes you buy any sprint phone and in can be activated for you. I bought this product and it was going to work until they found out there was a block on this phone from a previous owner. This meant this phone was either lost or stole. And sprint could not do anything with the phone. So go ahead and by a phone just I would not do so from this seller.

Yes you can just take the phone to a local store and they will activate it with your same number

Just had live chat with a VerizonWireless rep. My old flip phone bit the dust. I said I was being given a Samsung Convoy and where to activate. (I want a flip phone, don't need all the bells & whistles.) Had no hassles about my decision & got info I needed. Just add to existing contract no prob, supposedly.

That should not be a problem. This one is unlocked, so you will own it outright and can either add it to your account (to replace an existing hotspot for instance) or do a pay as you go plan. That said, expect to have to take it to your local Verizon corporate store for assistance moving everything. I tried to activate mine online (pay as you go for travel), but had some issues and ended up taking it into the store and they took care of it no problem.

We purchased the phone on amazon to replace one my son broke on our Verizon plan. We were able to go onto Verizon online and activate it. There was no activation fee. The regular monthly payment as part of our share everything plan remained the same.

Well I brought this when I didn't have a phone cause my phone broke, but when i brought this phone and brought to vierzon store they accepted it, but I think they can, and if anything you could just call/visit a verizon store and ask them if they are willing to add it your existing one.

NO,I made the mistake of purchasing this same phone to replace an old phone I have with Verizon. When I kept having trouble trying to activate it, I called a Verizon Rep. & he said unless the phone has been used on a "Prepaid" plan for 6 months, they can't connect it to your Verizon acct. I had to return it and get one that wasn't "prepaid". Make sure you read all the fine print in the item description. If you find one that's not "prepaid" as I eventually did, it will work just fine.

I think so, but it was a Sprint phone & I use Verizon, so I was unable to activate.

Several months ago I too was interested in purchasing this phone. I read other reviews and did what they said. I purchased a used one so that it would already have been activated (and just hoped it would be for the amount of time necessary, i.e. 6 months). I had no problem adding it to my existing contract and number.

I'm just looking to make sure that your account doesn't have a balance due that will keep me from activating this phone on my account. That happened with the last used phone that i purchased on Amazon.

yes you will and as long as you already have an account with verizon. you just log in to your account online and go to activate your phone. Took me only 10 min. If not take it to the store and get set up with a plan.
