How do I know that I will be able to activate this phone on my Verizon account?

The description of the phone should say that it will work on Verizon network. I typed "Verizon cell phones" into search engine and it came back with quite a few of them.

Hi Maria. You have go get someone on the phone from Verizon that knows which phone you are talking about. It might take a long time (it did for me), but ask for someone who has been there for awhile and they will know which phone you are talking about. They will walk you through and give you a ton of special instructions to get the phone activated. You have to be patient. I wish I wrote the steps down, but I didn't.

There is a small sticker on the phone which gives instructions. You must pick your calling plan from the website indicated. Following that you then activate the phone with the serial number displayed on the sticker itself.

Yes, you can activate it to your account. This model does require a data plan. Verizon may charge and activation fee, I'm not sure. Ususally you can call in to activate a phone but I'm not sure if they would still charge or not.Thank you for your interest,ClaytonMobilekarma

No it won't. Verizon won't activate it because it's not a Verizon brand phone. I bought this and it's still in the box because they wouldn't do it. AT&T however will send you a sim card for it, with your same number, and get much better phone service and customer service. It's worth it to switch!

NO,I made the mistake of purchasing this same phone to replace an old phone I have with Verizon. When I kept having trouble trying to activate it, I called a Verizon Rep. & he said unless the phone has been used on a "Prepaid" plan for 6 months, they can't connect it to your Verizon acct. I had to return it and get one that wasn't "prepaid". Make sure you read all the fine print in the item description. If you find one that's not "prepaid" as I eventually did, it will work just fine.

I simply activated it from the phone itself. The phone number was still active with Verizon, so it was an activate process. Call Verizon using the number on your bill and they should talk you through it. As I recall, I charged the phone, turned it on, and was directed to the set up. It was surprisingly easy. The old phone that it replaced was deactivated.

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

You need a SIM card to activate it if you have a already have a SIM card you can go online and login to your Verizon account if you already have one and activate it. You can also just call from you Verizon phone *611 or just go to the store for them to activate it and if you don't have a SIM card they will give you one . Hope this helps if you have a 4G LTE phone with a normal SIM card you can put that in it and will work also.

I just confirmed with Verizon that I can activate this phone on my existing line without it affecting my account in any way. I do not have to use it as a prepaid phone. I can use it with my current plan.

Contact Verizon and tell them you want to activate a new phone and transfer your number. You'll need the serial number for the phone you want to stop using and the serial number for the new phone to give them. They will activate the new phone and switch your number.

It's kind of a complicated process (web search "activate Verizon phone" or "activate LG VX9600," so I'd just call Verizon or whatever carrier you use and have them walk you through the process. They just want to keep you as a customer.

Yes. But like Bob Spencer mentioned, it has to be activated by the phone provider. Or if you already have one (like i did from my previous phone) you can use that one.

As long as its not a prepaid phone you can. I bought the same phone on amazon. When I got it I took it to Verizon and they activated it for me. I kept my same number too. But this one says prepaid. Try searching for the one that's not prepaid
