I have a talk and text only plan with AT&T. Will this phone work for talk and text only if I use my existing SIM card?

Yes. At&t; can't tell a prepaid from a contract phone. Their are contract users buying pre paid phones as replacements to thier damaged poo phones. At&t; now has the Avail 2.

The phone will work only with att sim cards. It also will work with prepaid Att, no other carrier.

I am not aware of what the AT&T; Medianet plan consists of. I use my phone with the pay as you go plan. I just inserted my SIM card into this phone and it worked.

Yes Audrey... you can put a SIM card in this phone and it will work with AT&T. We have AT&T mobility service and that is just what we did with three phones in our home. No complaints from my husband and son regarding this phone; I however have a Samsung Flight, no complaints on this phone either.

Does not work with my AT&T sim. Phone only seems to detect T-Mobile, but I have not tried with a T-Mobile sim

it will work with both ATT and Tmobile pay as you go sim cards. I use Tmobile as primary and ATT is a pay as I go.

Yes you can, thats what I had did. However, AT&T is still going to automatically add a data plan to your account after the phone has been used for more than a day. With all AT&T smartphones(which this phone is), it is required to have a data plan. Even if you only planned on using this as a basic talk and text only. They are still going to charge you for data plan, roughly about 30 dollars a month. But in my case it is now 20 dollars plus tax a month

Its doesn't natively make or receive calls. However you can if you download voip programs. Yes it takes att sim and once activated it has a number when can be used to send and receive text messages

Yes it will do both call and text. It works on the GSM cell phone network. That would be ATT, Tmobile and others but not Verizon. You can also get a gsm sim card from other suppliers. I used Ultra mobile and they have a $19 per month plan.

I use it for voice and SMS messaging only and wifi all over town. Just call AT&T; go phone with SIM card is. I had an old sim and phone number that I just transferred to the new nano sim and iPhone

No, you will need a Straight Talk SIM if you change to Straight Talk as your provider. You may use the AT&T network, but you will need a SIM from your new provider.

As an unlocked phone it is capable of working only with any GSM Carrier providing their services using a SIM Card. However, we can only guarantee basic call and text, we recommend contacting your Carrier and making sure they provide their services to this model phone without any restrictions.

Yes, you can use your SIM card, and that's exactly why I bought it. I did not want to enter into another agreement with AT&T;, and additionally, I like a flip phone... and these are a dying breed. If you're looking to put your SIM card in... by all means, purchase the phone. Make sure your contacts are Saved to your SIM card from your old phone, to avoid having to re-enter. Good luck!

Any sim card for a GSM carrier will work (tmobile and at&t;) Both will be able to make voice calls AND use data, however this version will only support 3G speeds on Tmobiles bands. AT&T; will have to use EDGE networks. Any SIM can be place in the phone from these two carriers, but in order to use the data feature you will need a data plan. However keep in mind this phone also has wifi so you can even use a sim card that does not have a data plan on it. The beauty of buying an unlocked phone is that the carriers cannot force you to add a data plan.

Hi Tori,I used a T-mobile SIM card with the phone and it worked fine. I have a month to month plan on T-mobile. I think it will work on AT&T;, if you have a sim card because the phone is unlocked. Hope this helps :)

NO!!!!! It won't work on AT&T either! If you buy a Straight Talk Activation Kit those Sim Cards will not work! They didn't for us. I ended up trading this phone to Walmart and purchased a VERIZON STRAIGHT TALK GALAXY 3, and it works everywhere! If you bought this phone send it back!
