Can I activate this phone as part of a plan that I already have?

Yes, but Sprint charges an activation fee IF it is an additional phone on your plan. If it is just a replacement phone for a current number there is no addtional charge. If you activate it as an additional phone, Sprint will send you to a local store. If they force you into a 2yr contract, like they did me, that should not be. Don't argue with them just call Sprint Customer Service afterwards and they will void the contract. If it is your phone, they cannot put you under a contract IF you have an existing plan already that allows additional lines.

No, you don't have to activate it to use features other than calling. It will prompt for activation the first time it's turned on but this can be bypassed.

Yes, when you get the phone and initially turn it on, select activate, then you can use it on an existing contract....I went on line and did mine with Verizon (switch device feature from old to new phone)

You sure can. I just took my sim card out my old phone and put it in this phone. I have the $45 unlimited everything plan.

As long as its not a prepaid phone you can. I bought the same phone on amazon. When I got it I took it to Verizon and they activated it for me. I kept my same number too. But this one says prepaid. Try searching for the one that's not prepaid

It should be able to be activated anywhere DEPENDING on the carrier (net 10, tracfone, verizon, etc) that you are going to use,

No, you don't have to use it with a pre-paid plan. I purchased this phone and was able to activate it on my existing Verizon wireless plan.

You would need to have this activated by a T-Mobile representative if you do not have a T-Mobile account already.

Sorry, got this plan myself about 1.5 months ago, and haven't activated it yet (if I even need to activate it)

Yes, but after you receive the new device, you will need to call Verizon and have them replace your old device with your new device so that it is activated.

Yes you can, just take it to your local verizon and let them know you would like to activate the phone. My husband loves it.

That should not be a problem. This one is unlocked, so you will own it outright and can either add it to your account (to replace an existing hotspot for instance) or do a pay as you go plan. That said, expect to have to take it to your local Verizon corporate store for assistance moving everything. I tried to activate mine online (pay as you go for travel), but had some issues and ended up taking it into the store and they took care of it no problem.

yes you can add it to your verizon plan. if it is a new prepaid verizon phone you can not. however if it is a prepaid and was activated over six months ago you can.

yes you will and as long as you already have an account with verizon. you just log in to your account online and go to activate your phone. Took me only 10 min. If not take it to the store and get set up with a plan.

Yes you can just call the activation number from the env and update it there but I would suggest going to an actual retailer in order to avoid a mix up with a data plan fee.

Yes you can (I'm doing that right now.) Just move the SIM card with your current plan to the new phone. Everything on your account will stay the same. It's a nice phone, BTW. Much better than my Samsung "Dart" smart phone, which it replaced.

you can always call verizon and ask if they can use it as a pre-paid im pretty sure they use the same numbers to activate. but i wouldn't know for sure i activated mine with my contract plan.
