Michelle you will have make sure that ESN is clean. I would honestly recommend a different phone besides the Samsung. I had four replacements from Verizon until I went with the droid incredible 2 by HTC. The incredible 2 by HTC is a solid phone with very little problems. You just have to make sure you update the firmware periodically. I now have a Iphone 4s which has automatic updates. Either Iphone or a HTC will give you dependability.

When I received my phone I had to go to the Verizon website to switch to this phone, because I was using a replacement phone that wasn't very good. Once I went through the steps my phone was on.

I think it is, as long as the ESN is clean you should be able to swith the phone with no problem

Yup, 2 year contract with $35 activation fee like every carrier out there so it's not really hidden. And just to be sure there is a termination fee usually its $200 now, unless your not getting receptions in your are then you might be able to talk to customer service and terminate your contract with no fee or some kind of discounted fee.

That was so long ago, I don't remember. What I do remember was that it took at least 5 hours to activate the phone and I ended up sending it back and cancelling the service. They do have an 800 number that would probably give you the answer. Also, the advertised monthly rate does not include all kinds of taxes, which increased the price considerably and was another reason I cancelled. Hope this is helpful to you.

I purchased this phone to go with an already existing plan because I didn't want to renew a contract. I believe if you take a phone you already have in to the cell carrier that they will activate it without a contract. You will probably pay an activation fee but not 2 year contract because the phone is already paid for and then I believe you can by minutes.

Yes and yes. I chose to buy this phone after my contract expired so that I would not be "stuck" in another contract with verizon. Verizon connected the phone to my existing number without a new contract. If you have an existing contract, verizon will just connect the phone to your number and the life of your contract will be applied to your new phone. The Charger I received with my new used phone is not the type I would have received from verizon (theirs comes with the usb that disconnects from the plug). The one I received works and charges my phone but is a simple and basic design.

Yes, It's clean and ready to use (assuming you have a new, not used/refurbished, phone). It takes literally one minute to activate. I already had a Verizon account and simply wanted to replace my current phone with the RAZR, which I had previously but lost to an unfortunate accident. Although there have been two newer phones on the market since the RAZR, this is my favorite phone and can't be topped by any other (in my opinion). Activate and enjoy!

If you already have a contract with sprint then all you need to do is purchase this phone Nd activate it. Purchasing and activating this phone will not renew your contract, nor will it cost you an activation fee so long as you already have a line activated

This phone is without a contract! I just walked into a Sprint Store where I live and not only did they help activate it for me, they helped me figure out how to use it. I must have stayed over an hour. Now of course I already had service with Sprint and had a "Plan" in place, but my previous 2 year contract had run out.

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.

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.

yes it can be activated with Verizon...fyi prepaid phones can also be activated through Verizon but they will try to tell you that you can't so you get into a contract.

Yes. Phone activated perfectly on the Verizon network. I would urge you to activate via phone. They will not try to sell you another data plan, nor newer phone. Just ask them to do a "device switch". This should not disrupt your current data plan...( I.e. unlimited data).

It's a Verizon phone so you should have no trouble activating it under your current Verizon contract phone number.

I don't know. We were told that Verizon could activate the phone, & they did for a fee, & monthly charge. Then we could suspend the account when we needed to. Since its an older phone, it took them a little while to activate it. After that it worked great. We were very happy with the phone.

I just got it and activated it no problemo; it works fine with my existing verizon contract; problem is verizon is a big pain in the arse for expense vs what you get

No problem for me and no activation fee.just make sure it says for Verizon.

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.
