I have a verizon contract, but no data plan. Will this phone work?

Hello, Yes this phone will work on your current plan & contract without a data plan.

This is an awesome phone...but I don't think you can get a data plan for it. It does use some data if you want to search for ringtones/ringback tones on it. But you would have to manual go into that function. It's not something that just happens. If you have any problems w/ that, Verizon is great in helping you on what pricing would be if you did wanted that.

This phone will not work with Verizon. It's a GSM phone and it is not a smart phone. You need a sim card for this phone.

No, you don't have to have a data plan for this phone. We are using it as spare phone abroad with multiple providers. However, the charges will apply, when you use data though.

Yes. I bought this phone for my brother as a basic phone on my Verizon plan. It's been working great. It's a very nice simple phone with a colorful touch display. You will not need to purchase a data plan.

I do not have a data plan. I solely use wifi on this phone. I have a AT&T sim card. This cell phone works wonderful without a data plan.

My husband currently uses this phone with a Verizon plan. He only uses it for phone calls; I do not know about text messages or data plan capabilities.

Nope! They use available wifi, so you do not need a data plan with this phone.

I used one all summer. As long as you are in verizon network range it will work. Call Verizon for the data plans.

No data needed. I had to call the carrier to set up the phone. If I tried signing it up online, it asked for a data plan.

No this phone does not require any data plan. I have used the phone on a 25 a month month rate plan by pay as you go.

Yes you would need a data plan as this particular phone does not allow you to have wi-fi capability. I hope this will help your decision.

The information I read indicated that the phone wasn't compatible with contracted plans but you might want to call up Verizon anyway and ask them.

Yes, this is a "basic phone". I use it with Verizon. I do not have a data plan. It will do media type things but that cost extra, as you know.

I go through t-mobile and have a data plan, but I'm pretty sure it will work without one.

When I had this phone in the US, through a contract with Cricket, I was paying for data. You can probably use it without a data plan, but you'll have to be careful to not use the internet features of the phone.

Yes you have to have a data plan to use the phone if you want to use the internet unless you plan on only hooking to your own internet. I wouldn't recommend this phone to anyone. Doesn't have enough internal memory, freezes up a lot. Total waste of money.

The phone itself does not require a data plan but your carrier may specify otherwise. I have the same phone for both my kids. We are all on AT&T; network. The phones work great.
