Does this phone require a contract

YES! I tried to activate this phone on the prepaid plan and it was not able to be done. I was told by both the Verizon Reps on the phone and in the store that it cannot be activated now on prepaid because it's out of date. I had to return it once I bought it here because people answered no when it could not be done so. It can only be done on a plan now.

Nope no contract required! That is why I bought it. I took it to my local Verizon dealer and they set it up for me and transferred my existing phone numbers to my new phone. I paid a little nominal service fee to do that, but it is sure nice to have no contract or be locked in for two years. If you have more questions let me know.

I f you purchase the phone like I did through Amazon there is no contract. Plus the new Convoy 2 that I purchased was less expensive through Amazon then if I had purchased it at Verizon with an upgrade and a 2 year contract. By the way the phone is great.

As this is a Wi-Fi device, not 3G or 4G,no contract is required but you must have a wi-fi to connect internet. Battery up to 3 days without charge under a regular use (mail, photos, video and games).

I bought this phone for my mother and she has a contract with verizon, so the answer is yes, you can use it as a contract phone. Just bring it to your phone company and tell them you want that phone activated

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.

a contract is what you sign when you go to a cellphone company like sprint so its better to buy a phone without one its cheaper and when a cellphone is unlocked it is able to be used on any company with a sim card like say you have a at&t phone and you want to use it on t-mobile you can as long as it is unlocked .what company do you have?

There is no contract necessary, but it is not plug and play. The instructions include a web site at AT&T; where you have to register the unit's serial number. You also have to register the phone numbers of users, up to 10, I think. I am not sure, but they might have to be AT&T; phones.

Positively yes. We have purchased several verizon no contract phones through amazon and so long as all those words are part of the description we have never had a problem.

Some people mean different things when they say "no-contract". For my personal experience, I ordered this phone to replace a Verizon Droid Razr HD phone that had a cracked screen. I am under contract with Verizon, but was unable to upgrade to a new phone without paying an arm & a leg. I purchased this phone right after Christmas & switched my service over on New Year's Eve. It is under contract, but I did not have to renew my contract. I actually think I will probably never renew again & purchase a phone. I think I will keep the plan I have & continue buying phones from other places than Verizon. I don't know if this helps you, but maybe it will.

I do not believe so, I have no need so to me it was not a requirement...it is still a great little phone for the money... my opinion of course.

Verizon will not allow you to use this phone with a contract plan. The plan that you can get with this phone is better than a 2 year commited plan. With this plan you can back out anytime you choose without any penatiles.
