So if I buy this phone all I have to do is transfer my verizon plan from my other phone to this one and thats it? no other costs.

Verizon will not charges you a penny for that as far as I know and you could change the MEID # via login into your Verizon account Via Web. once you exchange the MEID to new device dial *228 .

Your provider might charge you an activation fee. Check with verizon because they normally charge that fee.

Yes!!! I transfered my previous Verizon number to this phone. Just remember that you will have to purchase a smart phone plan for android....for example the $50 monthly prepaid plan

I think you'll have to call Verizon to make sure. I don't really know how SIM cards work regarding contracts and switching phones.

I just confirmed with Verizon that I can activate this phone on my existing line without it affecting my account in any way. I do not have to use it as a prepaid phone. I can use it with my current plan.

This is not a prepaid phone. You may be able to do that if you contact Verizon, but probably not. I would not recommend buying this phone anyways as seen in my 1 star review...

I purchased the phone and then bought that card from amazon. I called up Verizon and they got me going and phone works fine , only thing is you will have to go on a month to month to month plan through them which will cost around 80-90 dollars a month.

We purchased the phone on amazon to replace one my son broke on our Verizon plan. We were able to go onto Verizon online and activate it. There was no activation fee. The regular monthly payment as part of our share everything plan remained the same.

Yes you will, however you should know that once you transfer it you will never be able to use that phone with a different carrier. The service that I had with straight talk was awful and I wanted to change to another carrier so I had to end up buying another iPhone.

Yes. Your new phone will be covered by the plan you already have with Verizon. I am a Verizon customer and when I bought a Samsung Convoy U640 online I just followed the set up procedure on the phone and it automatically became my Verizon phone. I didn't even have to go to or call Verizon. You will need to transfer your contact numbers from your old phone to your new one yourself, one at a time. If this is too onerous you can take your new phone to Verizon and they will do it for you. They don't charge for this service. They will also transfer your photos. I just downloaded mine from my old phone to my computer.

Yes, just put your SIM card in from your old phone and go. I did the same thing after purchasing this phone.

I am unsure. However, I have had Verizon for a while and they have said after my contract I can go to prepaid with the same phone.

I just called Verizon and we did the transfer over the phone. Very simple and they will guide you thru all the steps..

but that doesn't make sense. why would they offer a option to upgrade (existing service) if you can't keep your old number?...isn't that just like starting new service? why would keeping your Verizon number not be considered "porting" and thus not void the rebate? doesn't sound right. maybe the csr got his/hers info crossed.

This phone can be used on your existing account as long as it is with Verizon.

It will work on the Verizon network - your account just determines what it will cost you.

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