I am buying this phone to work with Net 10. My question is, will I need to buy a data plan or just the sim and activation card?

Like any other phone, you will need a data plan or use wifi conection. My advice, DO NOT buy Blu products because your phone will never be update, you won't find accesories nor support. The only good thing about this phone is the battery.

You dont need data, you dont even have to have a data plan. Just use as phone and text, if you want data in the future you can buy a small amount for 5 or 10 dollars on one time basis as desired

No you do not need a data plan to use this phone. I have AT&T; text & talk only and was able to add it to my plan. It is capable of data if you were to upgrade your plan to data but again not required.

a response to one of the other statements. Net 10 uses a multiple of different carriers. If the phone has problems they can figure out what carrier it's using. If there is a better one for your area you can get them to switch it. It took getting a new sim card for me. They sent it free.

AT&T; will add a data plan when you activate any smartphone. EVEN IF you don't activate it with them. Hope that helps.

The phone is new and unlocked it is just att branded so you will be able to get 4g speed when using pre paid service. I used it with net 10. You can use any service sim card in it. Net 10 works great with this phone.

It's suppose to be 4G but almost always was in 3g. If you Get it unlocked, it should be able to work with net 10. Not sure though. To be perfectly honest, the Droid 2 global is crap. I hated it.

You have to buy the unlimited. I did not know this when I first switched to net 10 and ended up wasting money on a card without data.

Yes, mine came with a SIM card also but it's the SIM card for using the unlimited plan. Whether it's a net10 phone unlimited or bring your own phone you have to use the unlimited plan with this SIM. I had to find that out when I was shopping around. I didn't know there were 2 different kind of SIM's. It works good though since I needed the unlimited SIM. Hope that helped and was clear.

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.

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.

no just pop in your sim and use What ever plan that's available . I used prepaid and I didn't need the data but it's ok to have . It's more of a feature phone like

Answer here...The phone I bought works great all I had to do was charge phone and I put my sim card in the phone so you do need a sim card you could buy a sim card online or go to an AT&T; store and ask for one and more than likely they will give you a free one.If you have a sim card already you can use that you can do the phone prepaid or contract also and I use wifi so I do not have to worry about data charges

Every Net10 phone that I've had (I've had 6 in 3 years (I'm rough with phones)) I've had to use the new sim card that came with it. If you put in the one from your last phone, it will tell you that it's not a valid sim (or, that's the experience I've had... yours may be different!)

It does require a simcard. You may ask for a free activation kit from Lightahead for NET10 , AT &T connection if you need one.

With your phone unlocked you can use persay an AT&T; phone on your net 10 service I came to net 10 with my I phone 4 that I got with a plan from AT&T.; Switched to net10 before the AT&T; plan was over and they didn't mess with the phone at all since then I've had the net10service for almost 6 months now

Yes it will work since the phone is an AT&T; unlocked phone, if net10 provides you with an gsm sim card. All of our phone comes with original accessories like Phone guide, earbuds, charger, USB cable and headphones.
