Michel, not sure if this will work for a pre-paid plan. If it does, it would have to be through Verizon. You can call Verizon and ask them if they'd allow you to run this phone on a pre-paid plan.

I'm sure it would, I have the pre-pay plan and I had no problem whatsoever, just insert your sim card and voila!

no. My friend is using this only with a pre-paid SIM card. However, he is using this in another country but I believe the same holds true in the U.S.

I believe so. I didn't purchase the Verizon pre paid plan, but considered the option. I talked to a customer service person, after he verified the spec's of my phone, he said that it would work.

Wouldnt recommended this phone for either prepaid or contract. It is a terrible phone not worth nearly the price you'll be paying for it. But I don't know if is a contract phone, but I bet it is.

I'm currently using T-Mobile prepaid, which works for me, since I don't use a lot of talk time. I was looking at the 5800, which I understand will work with the prepaid, with the option of getting the feature phone data plan ($10? $15?/mo). From what I've read, this phone is basically the 5800 with a few cosmetic and technology improvements. Does anyone know if it will work with the T-Mobile prepaid plan?

This phone actually has a basic $10 a month plan. And mine ended up being a pre-paid phone so it had to be unlocked from Verizon to be used on my plan. It's a great phone.

if you want to enroll to a plan of your choice, you need to buy just sim and buy pin separately. Please try to understand in a very simple way and dont make it complicated. This sim is preloaded with $40 plan. you can probably change the plan, after you use this credit in first 30 days. I understand you are trying to be an smart shopper and save money, but I would not recommend you to try that as from my experience all the prepaid wireless system is not robust enough to accommodate such type of demand. Lots of things may sound logical to you, but any prepaid wireless has set up their systems in their very own way straightforward. They dont work like post paid. Hope this helps.

The phone is fine for calls. No minutes came with my phone. I only use this phone for emergencies. I buy a plan that you can buy in many places including Walmart. I get the 60 day 300 minute plan for a little over $30. My minutes seem to roll over if you don't use them all. If you want to anything besides get and recieve calls something else might be better. I do get a fair number of "wrong number" calls. I assime that someone else had this number not too long ago.

I got the phone on-line to avoid being locked into another contract.But it did mention that you could use a pre-paid Sim card.

If you mean by pre-paid as in do you have to pay before they send it to you, then yes. However, if you mean by pre-paid as in do you pre-pay for the minutes before you use it, then No. It is a Verizon contract phone.

The phone that I purchased does not come with a pre-paid Net 10 card. That card I purchased separately. But that aside, I like the Net 10 service as unused minutes DO carry over to the next month. RIG

A pre-paid phone is a phone that use can use on a month to month basis. You do not have to sign a contract, but you can if you want. It depends on what service you use to activate your phone. I use Net 10. For $45 dollars a month, (direct deposit), I get unlimited minutes, tx, and web.

Hey D.E.,You need some sort of provider. I just moved my sim card from my old phone to the new. This should work even if you use a pay as you go plan. I use the t-Mobile yearly pre-paid plan - I just need to top it off to $100 each year.Really like this phone by the way.

Rose I think you are asking me about the pre paid plan and if you are you have to use a Verizon prepaid card because the phone is Verizon. I hope this helps you and if I misunderstood your question please let me know. I will say that the phone is very simple to use and is a great phone and service. Denise

AT&T; Offers a pre-paid plan: $25 for 250 mins and Unlimited texting.No Data. I use this. It Works beautifully.Sadly, no picture messaging, since you need Data for that.BUTThey say all smartphones need a data plan. Save yourself money and prove that wrong.It Says its unlocked. I haven't tried using it for T-mobile.Personally, AT&T; has the best pre-paid plan you can get, especially given that you can use ANY AT&T; Phone.This is no exception.
