Does the phone arrive out of the box and ready to use? Or do I have to go and pay extra for minutes/time?

The phone comes with a few minutes of air time after activation, so you have to go to the website for additional time and days of service.

I believe you get 20 minuets free and then you need to purchase additional minutes..you do have to go online to sign up and get a phone #

Yes the phone comes in the box just like it does when you buy it in the phone store. The manual and accessories are included. You will love this phone. You do not have to use it as a prepaid phone. Just install your sim card and you are good to go. If you take it to the phone store they will transfer your data for no charge. Great value for the price!

The one I got was brand new, as always your mileage may vary (and as the phone is older at this point, there are probably a few more used ones floating around out there). Just be sure to get Amazon's return guarantee when you buy.

The phone itself was new, unlocked and from England. It only came with a new battery. This was the second purchase of this model with the first, which came with accessories, being through a carrier with a two year contract which I was trying to avoid. Three new batteries later I concluded the phone had a short and would cost more to repair than it's original cost.

Heather, did you get an answer? I have the same question, but went ahead and ordered as I guessed people would be complaining if it didn't. I should have the handset by 1/3/13. I'll answer the question then, so that others will know.

YES, it's new & in an unopened box. It's a great no frills phone. I found that the voice reception is better than a lot of the more expensive phones. The only thing that is way below PAR is the picture, & video clarity.

it was slightly used, but in good working shape. it came just as advertised and has been working without any problems. it came on time. i have no problems with the vendor. we are also on VZ and it was a snap to get the phone activated. for the money, we couldn't have done better. as far as i know, you can add this phone to your current plan without having to change your contract - however, you should talk to VZ to make sure.

I believe you do. Most of these features are included in your phone package already. Call your phone company to get the straight scoop on it. /Erik

I didnt have to do anything--it came unlocked and ready to go and i went to t-mobile (which has no contracts.) to get it activated. It was not connected to an AT&T; contract. When you buy an unlocked phone it cost more, but you arent obligated to ATT. If you bought a locked phone i believe you will have to get it activated at the AT&T; store.btw--its been a great phone!

Yes, I am already in the process of returning a phone bought off of eBay that was advertised as being ready for prepay and post pay, and after receiving it and spending 45 minutes with Verizon tech support, they contacted the pre-pay department with the ESN and determined that it needed to be activated for at least 6 months as a prepaid phone before it can be used on a post paid account. I am not sure why this is, but that is just how they do it for whatever their reasons may be. The phone purchased was useless to me so I definitely need to know this information before I make another purchase online, as I do not have the time to be going back and forth with this any more than I have already. Seller please respond and you will have a sale if this can definitely be used with post paid accounts.

Mine came in the box, did not require me to sign a contract and appeared to be brand new. I do not believe there is any warranty, but a great phone tho. Also, I've had refurbished phones before and this phone operated so well that I'm not sure if it was refurbished..

When I bought the phone it had a bit of a charge on it. I did not have a phone card yet and was able to get on the internet. It comes with a sim card if you buy it from VM.

Hi, I think my phone was new, at least it appeared to be and yes, it was in a box. Chargers etc were included in the pack. I am very happy with my Motorola phone and prefer it to my Nokia Lumia with Windows.

The phone is ready to activate, but you will need to provide a Verizon SIM. Verizon will provide one to you if you are a current or new Verizon customer. Thanks!
