I believe so. I don't know about with the GoPhone system - I did it with StraightTalk & it worked just fine (but using the AT&T; coverage)

The SIM card will work from one phone to the other, I have used my same SIM card in AT&T; contract phones, Go Phones and unlocked non-AT&T; phones. I don't think AT&T; knows or cares much what phone you use the card in but my default answer would be that you need to ask them to be sure. That said if you have an active AT&T; SIM card I think it would work the same as your current plan.

I'm not 100 percent but if it's att you might be able to. We have a prepaid plan through Walmart family mobile which supports mostly Tmobile unless unlocked and it works fine. I would recommend calling your gophone customer service and ask them if you can use an unlocked phone because if you got to use top up cards it might not let you. Let me know what you find out! :-) and good luck.this is honestly a great phone to have.

It requires microSIM. After you put in the Sim card it will require activation from the service provider and you shiuld be good to go with same phone number and data.

Yes, the same phones work with the Go phone or ATT service. I have regular family share and my son is on my plan, he ruins a phone every 2 months or so. I then go buy any Go phone to replace his. Cheryl Riley Lake Worth FL

Yes, you can but the plans have to match. This is a smart phone so if you currently have a smart phone it will work. If not you would have to upgrade the plan and they would probably give you a new sim. They being AT&T.;Thank you,ClaytonRecellulartoo

All you need is your sim card. You can use it like a gophone or a regular account phone. Works either way.

Thank you, but I am not a GoPhone customer - I was wondering about being able to pay that price for a data plan for a non-go phone current at&t; customer.

Not necessarily. I just bought one up through BB and had THEM set it up. SOoooo glad, too.The SIM from my pre-existing GoPhone (Nokia) gave a "Card cannot be used" message. The included, new, card had to be used and the switch done via a phone call. It wasn't EASY.

I got one for my Mother who lives in the US and has a vacation home in Baja. She got AT&T;'s Go Phone $55.00 a month unlimited service with international calling and it works great. They also sell sim cards in Mexico that you can buy that work with this phone.

sheriesapphire, I am like you. I have purchased this phone and am on an att postpaid account (non-gophone user). Make sure you put in your own SIM card first, do not put in the one that comes with the phone.Now to your question: Because you are a regular att customer, you will only have the option of buying the $15/$25 data plan options. You will not be able to purchase the gophone rates. I did not have to purchase a data plan because when I had my previous smartphone (purchased out of contract) I placed a data block on my account when it was still allowed for smartphones. For most regular att users, the $15 add-on plan would more cost-effective than the gophone rates anyway sheriesapphire, I am like you.

Yes. Just take the SIM card out of your current phone and put it in this phone. That's what I did. I've had it for several months and its a great phone. This same phone is featured on AT&T;'s website for lots more money. Ripoff!

No, we apologize. This is a contract phone and won't work with a Go Phone plan. 99% of the phones we have are for contract. Thank you for your interest, Clayton Recellular

If it is the same sized sim card that this phone takes then you sure can! That's what I did. I was in the same situation as you, just wanted something to hold me over until my upgrade.

The phone is locked to AT&T; so you cannot use it you are currently with another carrier e.g. Verizon. If you are already an AT&T; GoPhone customer your phone number comes over to this new phone when you insert the SIM card from your old phone. Not sure what happens if you use a SIM from an AT&T; contract phone.

I believe you can. I used to have a basic cell phone from AT&T; with a go-phone plan. I took out my SIM card and installed it in the Galaxy phone with no problems. I first tested this by taking out my SIM card and placing it in a coworkers Galaxy phone from AT&T; and it worked. Just make sure this is an unlocked phone.

That is the plan that my father is using now, so yes you can. As long as you have your sim card you can use it on this device as it is a unlocked gsm phone.
