You can activate it on Straight Talk with a SIM card for AT&T;, or you can use the bring your own phone on Cricket (now owned by AT&T;) and get their SIM for the GSM network. This phone will NOT work with a CDMA carrier such as Sprint or Verizon. It might work in some T-Mobile areas, but the data may not work.

I don't believe it can be used with Verizon or Sprint. As far as I know, the phone may be compatible with networks for ATT, Consumer Cellular, Walmart Straight Talk, and possibly T-mobile. However some of the functions of the phone may not work as well with the other companies.

Yes, this phone can be used on your existing Verizon contract. I just had to go to the Verizon store and have one of the sales reps there program it for me and move all my contacts from my old phone to the new phone. Took only a few minutes for him to do and didn't cost me a thing.

Yes. Since the phone is unlocked, you can pick which carrier you want to use. I have at&t; so i use an at&t; sim card. At&T;, sprint,& t-mobile sim cards are are feasible to use in an unlocked phone. If not mistaken, i believe verizon doesn't use a sim cards so that's a different story. If your planning on using those other carriers like cricket they would just have to flash your phone if flash capable.

No, not prepaid. If you have an existing verizon conrtact and your phone brakes, then you would be able to activate this unlocked phone without any change to your contract, or service. This is easily done on their website.

I don't know. u have to ask the cell phone company or look on the web bc I heard there is a way to "unlock" the phone and use it with any cell phone company. Also, they sell this same phone as a contract phone. But u must use Verizon. I have Verizon prepaid for $50/mo--with unlimited talk, text and web. Sue, did u have more questions? I only saw this one.Verizon 800-922-0204Verizon Pre-Paid 888-294-6804Verizon Activation 800-256-4646

Yes any Verizon store should be able to activate this phone Page Plus should also be able to activate this phone as long as it is not a prepaid model and any company should be able to transfer (port) any active number.

Yes you can, just take it to your local verizon and let them know you would like to activate the phone. My husband loves it.

Yes, when you get the phone and initially turn it on, select activate, then you can use it on an existing contract....I went on line and did mine with Verizon (switch device feature from old to new phone)

It's a Verizon phone so you should have no trouble activating it under your current Verizon contract phone number.

Yes. Phone activated perfectly on the Verizon network. I would urge you to activate via phone. They will not try to sell you another data plan, nor newer phone. Just ask them to do a "device switch". This should not disrupt your current data plan...( I.e. unlimited data).

As long as you have a sim card from Verizon you can use this phone. We used the one we got for Verizon.

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.

Yes you can activate and use with existing contract.That is what we did. Phone was like new and is still working great.

You should contact the service provider you wish to use. I activated mine on straight talk I just had to buy their sim card.
