My Grandson gave me his old iphone 3G which was AT&amp;T. Can I convert to Verizon prepaid? If so how?

Don't believe so. ATT is on GSM network while Verizon is a CDMA carrier. Look into Straight Talk or Family Mobile. Believe you can bring your own phone with both these providers.

As long as you have a micro-SIM card you can just pop it in and select your network to connect to (it auto-detected correctly for mine but you can verify through settings). If you don't have a micro-SIM card then just swing by your AT&T; store and ask them for one, they'll hand it to you over the counter and get your account flipped to use it. 5 minute process. Enjoy the phone!

Yes. The IPhone 3GS will work if it is unlocked. Check the specs of the intended country though. From my experience GSM 900 areas are covered, but destinations vary.As for a SIM card, be sure that your intended phone has that feature. If so, simply pop open the tray at the top of the phone and insert your new card when you get to where you are going. I hope this helps. Take care and God bless.

I doubt it. It is a Verizon phone (or the one I bought was). I think you can buy a sim card for an at&t; phone thru Straight Talk so you can use at&t; phones, but the last time I checked, that doesn't work with CDMA phones (Verizon).

The only answer I can give you is to call a Net10 provider, which is either AT&T; or Verizon or visit their websites. I think you can use whichever prepaid card of your choosing, but please get a hold of the providers to made sure.

I don't believe you can convert a prepaid phone to a contract plan, but to be sure ask Verizon.

Yes you can, but only if it is a Verizon contract Gusto. The prepaid model will not work on a Verizon contract.

If you have an AT&T; SIMM card, you simply place it in the phone. That's what I did. I'm not sure how you activate it under it's prepaid abilities.

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

Depends on your card. When I had the verizon card I only got 3G. When I switched to a AT&T nano card it had 4g

No. This phone is linked to AT&T and would require an AT&T service subscription. There are services available to UNLOCK the phone. Since the 3GS is older technology you would not have any warranty issues to be concerned about if you did have it unlocked. Keep in mind that the 3GS will not be able to be updated to the new operating system (IOS7) when it is released this fall. Your phone will still work and the aps will still work but you won't have the latest OS nor will you receive any updates.

Yes. Verizon recently changed their policy to allow ANY Verizon phone to be used on prepaid - including 4G phones.

Unfortunately all of these companies that have a prepaid plan make you purchase phones through them specifically AT&T; as of June is letting people bring any phone to them that is unlocked and can become a go phone this specific phone has AT&T; logo on it however I didn't know that when I purchased it I'm happy with the service through AT&T; however with their go phone service I pay a flat rate each month no contract

from my experience when I first got the unit I tried using an AT&T; sim card. The unit did not work as it was supposed. I wasn't able to control it remotely from my cell phone. I called the seller and they advised me to use a t-mobile sim card. I then went to t-mobile and activated a prepaid SIM card and then the unit worked as it was supposed. from my understanding AT&T; no longer has 2g capability but T-mobile does. Hope this helps. The seller's customer service is also pretty good.

Just take the sim card to your preferred carrier and ask them to activate it for you. These sim cards are for pre-paid plans anyways...If you're going to AT&T; they have a site to activate the card. Follow the instructions carefully and you should be fine.

No. Verizon uses CDMA. The Veer shown uses GSM, which AT&T; uses. The pictured phone will have 3G service on T-mobile and 4G on AT&T.;
