can I activate the phone on Verizon?

Yes you can as long as you already have a contract with them all you have to do is Call Verizon customer service from another working phone and tell them you want to activate a new phone and they will tell you step by step how and it only takes a few minutes. If you don't already have a contract with Verizon you might need to go to verizon and speak directly to them. I hope this helped :)

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).

Yes- I bought this for my niece and she was able to activate.. you need some of the id numbers on the phone, which are under settings

The one we bought was successfully activated. It was "refurbished" rather than new, and has developed other problems.

I bought one a few months ago from Amazon and had no problem getting it activated by Verizon. They transferred my contacts and were very nice about it.

Yes, you will just have to go to Verizon store with this phone and ask them for a Sim card.

As long as it is a Verizon model and not a model from another cell provider, yes, Verizon can activate it on a current plan. I had no problem doing the same thing 3 or 4 weeks ago.

Yes. I brought the phone to a Verizon store and they put in a new SIM card and activated it.

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

Yes. I got one of these for my grandson who is only able to talk and text. You should also be able to activate the phone yourself. The instructions for that are at Verizon.com.

No. It must have a sim card, but Verizon won't charge you for a sim card. Least they didn't charge me for mine. But they won't activate it on the pay as you go, that plan is 3g and lesser.

I actually bought the phone for my mom because her phone broke. She was under contract with Verizon and they are letting her use it. I believe that the only thing if anything that will be charge from Verizon is the activation fee. I had trouble activating it myself, but I called customer service and they walked me through it. Hope this helps:)

I apologize for the late reply but Yes, you can just activate this phone without being charged or renewing your contract.

no you can activate it from your phone by going to prepaid and it will tell you what to do from there

YES! I tried to activate this phone on the prepaid plan and it was not able to be done. I was told by both the Verizon Reps on the phone and in the store that it cannot be activated now on prepaid because it's out of date. I had to return it once I bought it here because people answered no when it could not be done so. It can only be done on a plan now.

you can activate the phone on your own, it's easy. or you can always go to VERIZON, there is no charge. whatever is more comfortable, i've done both in the past....

Activation by Verizon required. And unless you have a prior SIM card from Verizon with the phone number you need to get one from them anyway. Prepaid by Verizon OK otherwise NO.

Yes. But like Bob Spencer mentioned, it has to be activated by the phone provider. Or if you already have one (like i did from my previous phone) you can use that one.
