I would like to buy this phone to replace a broken basic phone in a verizon plan. will this work?

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.

It should work just fine. I have three of them on my account. The data charge is $30/month in addition to my other charges, even though I don't use any data.

This phone requires a 3G Verizon plan. Assuming the "basic phone" being replaced was not internet compatible, you may be required by Verizon to purchase a monthly data allowance of approximately $10 tacked on to your current plan, if you are Verizon contract customer. Pre-paid Verizon usage would depend on the cards available in your area. This is an obsolete phone, compared to the other 4G smartphones available on the current market. Good phone for those who like touchscreens, but don't need to utilize it for networking/internet activity. Get a case for it & use screen protectors to prolong life of phone.

Yes, it was a while ago that I had it but I don't remember paying for a data plan. In fact, I wanted a touch screen qwerty keyboard and did not want to pay data, so I chose this phone. I see a few others here are paying, so check with Verizon and ask if it's mandatory now.
934530
Yes, but they will want to charge you for the minimum data plan $10. At least they did me, so I returned it.
934531
Yes--did it a couple of months ago. Also--if both phones have Bluetooth, it is matter of a few seconds to transfer contacts and pictures.

Yes It Will Work. Additionally What's Nice About It Is You Don't Have To Have DataOn it

it should. The Johns Phone accepts the regular size sim cards. If the card does not work verizon should be able to get you a sims that will and just transfer your number to it. The Johns phone is a nice simple phone.

Yes it will. Just bought one and set it up with Verizon without a hitch. You may have gotten a bad phone.

If it's the exact model number shown here on Amazon, yes, it is a Verizon phone and they will activate it. I've had two of these and they both worked on Verizon's network. If it's slightly different, it may not work.

It is based on the phone type not the service provider. So as long as you buy it for the right phone it will work.
2074640
As long as your service provider use a GSM network, the phone will work. I can also assure you will not be disappointed.

No..this phone is not good. It unlocked from Verizon so all the features not work good.
524291
Yes it will work because it is an At&t; phone. Just switch out the Sim card and place into new phone. Make sure it is a micro sim.

I bought this phone for Verizon and even though the description said Verizon, I was cautious because of the range of responses yes/no/i don't know. I would suggest calling or chatting with US Cellular about the phone. Then call back and get a different person and ask the same question again. It's possible it would work with your carrier but maybe too much work to get there and too expensive if you have made a mistake. After triple checking with Verizon about the phone, I waltzed into the Verizon store and they swapped it no problem.

I purchased a phone from Amazon and I use verizon. I love it! As long as it says it's "unlocked" and it works w/ Verizon....you will be fine.

It should work. The phone is exactly the same. The only difference is provider.

Yes, I can't think of any reason why you wouldn't be able to either replace an existing phone or add one to an existing contract. Just contact Verizon prior to purchase to double check.

Yes. I purchased this phone to replace a Verizon phone we had it worked fine. I just called Verizon's 800 number and did the transfer.

Hello veeve my guess would be yes. The shipper stated the phone "the one I purchased" was/is unlocked meaning it should work with most service providers. In my case Verizon. Also remember two phone carriers us Sim cards. The phone I purchased came wither a Sim card installed. Verizon will provide you with a sim card free of charge. Good luck God bless

Yes, but there are two versions of this phone-one that works on regular verizon accounts the other that says it is a prepaid phone. Be very sure not to get the one that is prepaid as I did first. (and it was listed in the very last line of the detailed description lower on the page!) The right one works great.

I don't know to much about Verizon as I'm on t-mobile but I would assume so long as it's unlocked and you can put your sim in it then it should work just fine with no extras required

It should...but I recommend checking with them, first, to ensure that they still support that type of smart phone. Verizon still supports it.
