Does at&t require a data plan with this phone?

No, you do not need an at&t; plan to use Wi-Fi or Bluetooth with this phone as long as it is compatible with your modem or any Bluetooth device you are using. Unfortunately it was not compatible with the Bluetooth in my car but it may work with yours. However, if you want to use the phone or text, you do need an at&t; plan.

pretty sure, yes. I remember being told that even with the $50 "unlimited everything" plan that you still needed a separate data plan for this phone because its not technically a smart phone. But thats only if you want to access internet or use apps that do. If not, then no, it doesnt require one just for typical use. For very minor use, the $25 plan is perfect.

No data plan is required and you can use regular Wifi for internet access. I'd reccommend the Fusion 2 that they have now, it's basically the same phone, but with more internal memory.

No, other than the prepaid monthly payment which includes sms, no web last time I was enrolled in January.

No it doesn't. I'm on the $25 monthly unlimited text and 250 minutes prepaid plan. Works great :)

No a data plan is not required. However, if you are buying this phone to use with an existing phone plan that you have with AT&T; in order to avoid a data charge for a new smartphone through AT&T;, and you wanting to switch sim cards between the phones. AT&T; will *happily* add a data charge to this phone. Best bet is to cancel the service you have (if you are out of you contracted obligation) and use the sim that comes with the phone and follow the setup instructions that also come with the phone.

It does not require any data plan. You can install SIM card and start to use it right away. You can choose any GSM provider here in US as well as in Europe. This is a reason to buy an unlocked phone. Unfortunately, we've sent it back to seller. It has very good design (it's a Sony(!), so you get a very good designed phone just by default). It was brand new, in the original box, but did not work at all, unfortunately again. May be it was just a Chinese grey copy, but it's only my guess.

Hey Tony, ATT has data plans for all smartphones. However I bought this phone to send it overseas.

Dear Jesus M , The iPad doesn't come with a data plan, but you can sign up for a data plan with At&t directly from the iPad. Thank you.

Yes, you don't have to have a data plan. I got it for my son it's $50. For unlimited talk, text, internet, GPS... Etc. but you can just with unlimited talk an text for $40..... Those plans even go cheaper then that. Hope I helped you out.

I am not sure about AT&T Postpaid plan. I do have an AT&T Family plan which includes phone and texting but no picture transmission and absolutely no data plan. This phone works great on it. If you check my review, you will see this is a replacement phone for one that I lost which was exactly like it. The first phone I bought through our local AT&T store when we were renewing our family contract. They actually suggested this phone, knowing that all I wanted to do was text and make "old-fashioned" phone calls with no data plan. Hope this is somewhat helpful.

No data plan is required by Verizon. Verizon is my carrier. I signed up to pay an extra five bucks a month over the cell phone service so I could send up to several hundred texts a month, but no data plan, unless you were going to use this phone to browse the internet or something like that, but I would not advise that.

No data plan is need unless you want to download apps and be connected to the internet vie Wi-Fi. All that is need is that you have an AT&T; Sims card.If you already have AT&T; you can insert you old Sims card in and you will be operational.

I'm in AT&T. I've had this phone about 6 weeks. No data plan & no charges on my billing - but you can only access internet based functions when in a wifi zone. That's just fine with me.

Yes... It says no contract, but AT&T; can read whatever device you are using and they automatically assigned a data plan for me. Of course they added the most expensive one, so I contacted them and changed the plan but you must have one.

Hello, Yes this phone will work on your current plan & contract without a data plan.

No, they do not. You will be able to use it on a normal plan, without data required!

It will operate without a data plan. However the carriers will detect you using the data and attempt to charge you. It's a fantastic phone and will work anywhere

Yes you would need a data plan as this particular phone does not allow you to have wi-fi capability. I hope this will help your decision.

Yes. I bought this phone for my brother as a basic phone on my Verizon plan. It's been working great. It's a very nice simple phone with a colorful touch display. You will not need to purchase a data plan.
