Can we use this phone with the current number we already have on a lost phone with our Verizon plan?

No, they told me at verizon that you have to use it as a prepay for 6 month before you can use it with an existing number

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.

Don't quote me but based on my experience you can use that phone. Just explain that the other phone is lost. As long as you can verify your identity they will simply switch the information and the number. Only exception would be if your number were inaccessible, and it doesn't appear that would be the case. Good luck and I hope this helps.

No. That's why I returned the phone. You don't want a pre-paid phone. you want a regular one that can be programed with the old number.

No, this is a prepaid phone, and it has to be activated for 6 months before it can be used on a contract line.

This is a prepaid phone only, so if you have a contract phone you will not be able to use it. This phone will ONLY work on a prepaid plan.

I was able to do so. Lost my smart phone. Bought this phone to use until I found it. No problem swapping phones after logging into my account on the Verizon website. Worked like a charm.

Maybe, if you have it "unlocked." I purchased the phone specifically to replace my son's phone on my Verizon account.

This one can be used as a replacement, however it does not come with a sim card. It will not work with Verizon.

I believe you can. I had a previous phone before I owned the T404G, and just had Tracfone transfer the number.

You should be able to transfer you number over, however, you will need to have a data plan or Verizon will assign you one & charger you for it.

Mike-You can keep your old number. Just remove the sim card from your old phone and put it in this one.

I dont know that answer - I would assume so - I already had verizon plan - without a contact on another phone that I was eliminating

Yes if you want, but Verizon just activated my Mom's usin her old cell number.

Yes. I bought the iphone 4s with Verizon sim card to replace a lost phone. We simply had to move our number to the replacement phone. You can even do that online.

No, this isn't a pre-paid phone. You have to have it activated by Verizon. They'll assign it a new number or transfer an existing number you have on your old phone.

Yes, you will keep your plan. You lose it if you upgrade(get a new phone) from Verizon.

If you keep the same service carrier with active service, they should assist you. If you want to switch carriers, but keep your old number, things get difficult. I hope this helps..

Yes, I have two on my plan and was able to keep the same numbers from my older phones. Verizon tech support was very helpful.
