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.

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.

It didn't work for me when I did so. It was the prepaid type of phone, so I was not able to swap it for my present phone. It didn't take. You might have to call them. I did not as I dislike Verizon's customer service and in fact, their entire operation.

You can call the Verizon customer service line od dial *611 from your cell and activate over the phone and have your old number transferred to your new phone.

I had a phone like this for four and half years, I love it and repaced it. I have always had Verision and had no problem geting it activated and I kept the same number..

Very easy to do. When you get your new phone, dial *228 (make sure your old phone is powered off)... Then it will ask you for the 10digit phone number you want to associate your new phone too - (this would be the cell number you are keeping). Once you do that, it programs and power resets. Then you should do the *228 again to update roaming capabilities. Phone should be good to use after that.Transfering contacts can be done over Bluetooth using the "send name card" feature.

Since I only needed this phone on a temporary basis I used Verizon's pre-paid service but it still worked fine. I didn't have a number that I had to keep but I do know that if you already have an active number and are trying to either switch phone services or are simply switching phones that the company representative you are speaking with will ask you if you would like to keep your old phone number or switch to another available one. I don't think this phone comes with a charger, so just make sure you have one that will work with this phone before you get it because I don't think it comes charged... Good luck and hope these comments help! Since I only needed this phone on a temporary basis I used Verizon's pre-paid service but it still worked fine.

I know that 'Straight Talk' phones can be activated on Verizon (a friend did it) but the other direction, I don't know. Verizon phones are 'locked' and A Cell phone repair shop might be able to 'unlock' it and it should work....

No. Even an unlocked phone from at&t; cannot be activated on Verizon. I tried. Verizon tried. Apparently IMEIs are tied to service providers and phones.

Hi, if you already have a NEXTEL SIM CARD you do NOT need to activate, just put your old sim in it and thats it. This phone is unlocked. BUT ! you can not use ATT, T-Mobile or similar sim cards in it. THIS IS FOR NEXTEL NETWORK

you can always call verizon and ask if they can use it as a pre-paid im pretty sure they use the same numbers to activate. but i wouldn't know for sure i activated mine with my contract plan.

Yes, it can be activated w/ Verizon Family Plan....I am sure of this, but not sure if you can get the device Id number. It seems like they ask you for a number that is listed on the phone.......I believe it is under the battery. That may be the number that you are referring to.

You would have to double check with Verizon. Even though phone is unlocked, each carrier has their own rules.

If you have a Verizon 4g sim and it id the correct size then yes. If not correct size go to a local Verizon store they will provide a sim nd activate the phone. In any case you must contact Verizon to activate the phone.

I was able to activate my phone under the verizon plan that I already had. You will have to have some sort of plan/contract in order to use the phone.

Yes,just take it to Verizon & have then activate it for you.Word of warning this phone is supposed to be ultra tough,I dropped mine from waist height & it's been a problem ever since.Dropped my old Motorola off of 12 ft. ladders & it kept on ticking.

yes you will and as long as you already have an account with verizon. you just log in to your account online and go to activate your phone. Took me only 10 min. If not take it to the store and get set up with a plan.

Actually you need to call att so they activate the Sim card. Once the card it's activated than you explain them that you want to keep your old number. They can tell you how to add call and text time to it.

You can do it yourself from home, go to Verizon website, and it tell you how to activate. That's how I did mine. It took five minutes.

Yes you can activate your device anywhere, but know that your primary area is where the number will be ported from.

As far as I am aware, from my experience with it, this phone is only for Verizon use. All I had to do when I owned one was to activate it by calling the number and putting in my Verizon info. It took no more than five mins!

I took mine to Verizon and was told they could not activate it or link it to my account because it was unlocked and Verizon doesn't 'like' unlocked products and that mine was not compatible.
