I would go through Verizon to get this phone. As long as your contract is up, it will give you the option of signing up again for 1 or 2 years. And since this would be re-signing up for a contract, you will get the discounted price to upgrade your phone. I am not sure how Amazon does the upgrades and therefore would suggest going through Verizon for that. Hope this helped.

No contract means you don't have to sign a contract to buy it. I bought this and replaced my other phone without messing up my verizon contact.

As far as I know u should be able to. We took the phone to our local Verizon store, and they did it all for us.... At no charge.

You can just buy one. More expensive than buying one through Verizon, but this way you don't have to wait to be eligible for upgrade or renew your contract. Getting a phone through veriZon will also take away your unlimited data plan if you have that. This is a good way to beat the system.

yes but only pre paid service or u can change it to a non-prepaid fone by calling verizon and sign a 2yr contract

You have to already have a Verizon account. You can go to to verizonwireless.com or contact a different reseller that works with Verizon. I would go to verizon first, it's quite possible that they can give you a better deal on a newer (non refurbished) phone for starting a contract with them... it's up to you what route you go.

This will not interfere with an upgrade. You just log on to your Verizon website, choose your daughter's current device, and choose "Switch Devices." This phone does NOT have a data package capability though. Just so you realize this.

I believe you can but they trying to get everybody on the $45 unlimited plan. I suggest if you do get the phone take it to a Verizon dealer to switch your number over but don't open it until you find out from the dealer for sure

You cannot convert it to Verizon however you can use other GSM networks provided the phone is unlocked

I was able to activate my phone under the verizon plan that I already had. You will have to have some sort of plan/contract in order to use the phone.

I think it depends, you can always inquire about it with them. I buy the Verizon phones without contracts and my prepaid service flashes it over to their network.

Yes you can use it as a replacement for a broken phone. The contract is for the service and not the device your using.

yes i believe you can. i have the same phone which i just replaced (from amazon) so this is the second LG VX5500 for me. I currently have a verizon plan with it. I didnt want to upgrade or sign a new contract either, so your on the right track. good luck, hope this helps.

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.

Yes. Verizon will be able to switch your number from your old phone to the new one.
