Any sim card you put in will work...I used a sim card with my t-mobile plan but this phone was intended for a prepaid card.Incidentally, it's a great phone.

Yes you can. I have page plus. It works fine. Though, as a warning, as with all phones, used mostly, there is a possibility that there may be an issue. Some phones (my mother's for example, was "locked" and the phone was useless.) The seller did send a new one right away. He paid for the postage. Some used phones it does not matter what brand, or certain carriers Verizon for example, and you cannot use them. SIM card phones such as T-mobile phones are NOT locked since everything comes off of the SIM card. (I used to be a T-mobile employee) Stay in contact with the seller, ask questions about the device you are buying IF you decide to go used. Just wanted to give you a warning, in case you did not know. But yes you can use it on prepaid.

If it is a prepaid SIM with a set amount of data on it already then yes. Otherwise no you will need a SIM and a data plan. Unlocked just means you can use a SIM from any carrier and the device itself is not locked to just one carrier (i.e. AT&T, T-Mobile, etc).

Just take the sim card to your preferred carrier and ask them to activate it for you. These sim cards are for pre-paid plans anyways...If you're going to AT&T; they have a site to activate the card. Follow the instructions carefully and you should be fine.

No, you will need to contact Verizon to send you a SIM card, they will do that free of charge, unless you already have one.

The only answer I can give you is to call a Net10 provider, which is either AT&T or Verizon or visit their websites. I think you can use whichever prepaid card of your choosing, but please get a hold of the providers to made sure.

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.

I have a contract with Sprint. So I was able to activate the phone online through this provider. As for using a prepaid card, I am not sure. It has to be activated somehow before you can use the prepaid card. You may need to do some research on how to do this.

As others have said, you get a SIM card from whatever provider you want to use. The key is that it must be a GSM provider, like AT&T; or Tmobile. There are also other GSM regional carriers out there but those are the national ones. I found the AT&T; plans better than Tmobile.

Yes, you would use a SIM card with the unlocked Pre 2. You would use the card that you obtained from your service provider -- it does not come with a card.

Activation by Verizon required. And unless you have a prior SIM card from Verizon with the phone number you need to get one from them anyway. Prepaid by Verizon OK otherwise NO.

It can be used with a prepaid plan that requires a sim card. I use it for a prepaid service.
