I am under contract to Verizon. Can this phone be activated immediately or is it a prepaid model?

It is not a prepaid model. Ours was activated immediately we just went to the Verizon store and it was easy! Good luck.

You will need to contact Verizon to see if it is a clean phone or is a prepaid model. I had to return a phone that was supposed to be clean but Verizon found it was a prepaid.

i bought the same one and was able to activate it with the contract, but you can imply do it online and skip the visit to the store if you prefer

The phone I received had no problems with activation. I just called my service provider and gave them the info from the phone and it was active in just a few minutes. The phone was in brand new condition eventhough the description said good condition. Very satisfied with my product and shipping was very quick.

Depends how it described in the Seller's information.Some Prepaid phones come with $10.00 airtime, so you can activate it but you'll be told that you have X minutes remaining on each call. Once you hit zero minutes or just a few, you can the purchase minutes from Verizon - and I seem to rememer that it's a $50.00minimum.Once you have owned it and used it for 6 months, you can put it on one of Verizan's plans.If there are no "AirTime" in the deal, Verizon will charge an activation fee.Regards,BobO'B

No, this is a prepaid phone, and it has to be activated for 6 months before it can be used on a contract line.

If you have an AT&T; SIMM card, you simply place it in the phone. That's what I did. I'm not sure how you activate it under it's prepaid abilities.

Yes it is a prepaid phone. When i called verizon you could use phone but had to pay. That would not work for me because i was already paying for a line. Didnt want pay twice

No contract with this phone means that once you receive this phone you can immediately activate it with any wireless carrier. With some phones, if they were a prepaid phone for example, you have to wait a certain amount of time before you activate it.

Only after the phone has been activated for 6 months on prepaid cause its made for ptepaid then you can put on a contract

Good question. I bought one thinking i could use it on my verizon family plan only to be told by verizon that the phone was a pre-paid phone only and could not be activated on my family plan. if you can find out from amazon if the phone is a pre-paid only that's your best bet.

It was on the Verizon network and it did not work properly for me. You can get a prepaid plan just make sure you are on the right network. I returned it.

Yes. After the phone is delivered, you will need to call Verizon and they will walk you through getting it activated. Most phones can be done by calling *228, but this one cannot.

I bought one a few months ago from Amazon and had no problem getting it activated by Verizon. They transferred my contacts and were very nice about it.

Post usually are phones on contracts. This phone however is a prepaid phone and apparently needs to be activated for six months before you can switch to a contract.

it is not a prepaid phone, and yes you can activate it to your current verizon wireless plan, i bought this phone for my mother and had no problems connecting it.

The phone can be a prepaid. When I bought it it had been used with Vodaphone, Verizon's prepaid phone service. My particular phone is limited to networks, prepaid or not, that use Verizon's towers.
