Does the "No Contract" mean that you cannot use it with a Sprint contract?

You should be able to use it with Sprint, however I bought mine to activate with Ting, which is a much cheaper service with better customer support. You can find them here: https://zlm80f1t8d3.ting.com/

No. You must utilize the network of the service provider in which the phone is sold as. In this case, you must have a plan with Sprint.

No contract. It is the price of the phone you can use it with any GSM network or CDMA. All the best.

There is no contract necessary, but it is not plug and play. The instructions include a web site at AT&T; where you have to register the unit's serial number. You also have to register the phone numbers of users, up to 10, I think. I am not sure, but they might have to be AT&T; phones.

You might be able to use this phone on one of their MVNO pre paid providers but you must call and check with the to verify first.

Unfortunately no. Sprint uses CDMA a for their phones while this phone is GSM meaning it uses a SIM card that allows you to use it unlock. In order to use this specific phone you would need a SIM card. Good luck to you and I hope this helps

As long as it is a Sprint phone, there is no problem doing that. I bought one for my son also. I have had my S3 for over 2 years now and still love it. This way is actually better to do rather than getting one using the upgrade. It saves you money and keeps you off the 2 year contract. Hope this helps.

I don't know because I'm not using a SIM card. I activated it through Sprint without a SIM card. Sorry if that doesn't help.

Nope no contract required! That is why I bought it. I took it to my local Verizon dealer and they set it up for me and transferred my existing phone numbers to my new phone. I paid a little nominal service fee to do that, but it is sure nice to have no contract or be locked in for two years. If you have more questions let me know.

Yes and no. There are 3 no-contract plans you can choose. Just go to their website and you'll see them, but you can choose when to add money. They have really good prices compared to other carriers.

I've just returned it to the seller because I've misunderstood about the word "no contract". I'ld like to buy a iphone for international using but that iphone have no sim card and not in use for GSM but CDMA network only.

It can be a no contract pre-paid phone you just have to make sure with your service provider you're aloud to bring in your own phone for pre-paid

To answer your question, yes. I am with AT&T and they place a Sim card in the phone. I know sprint use a Sim card as well, but be careful if you are with sprint purchase the phone from them and the Sim card is pre-installed. If not, you may end our purchasing one on your own. I do not believe sprint will give you one if the phone is not purchased from them. Simply call and double check to be sure. Hopefully, this helps.
