I don't think you can use this with an existing Verizon account. it's just a pay as you go phone as far as I know. Check with Verizon, though.

It is a prepaid phone which is basically means just buying those prepaid cards in the store and adding them to your prepaid account. If you already have a plan with Verizon, you can't use it with your plan unless you have been using it as a prepaid phone for at least 6 months. I know it's weird but that's what they told me when I tried to add it to my plan after using it as a prepaid phone for only 3 months. And if you do add it after the 6 months, you don't have start a new contract. Those contracts are usually only for when you are buying a phone from Verizon for a discounted price. Hope that helps. Your best bet is to call Verizon and find out what will work best for depending on your situation. :)

Just read the previous response. This person is wrong. My uncle changed from att to a Verizon prepaid plan. Did this 6 months ago.

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.

I bought my Verizon Moto G 4/26/14 and was able to activate it on contract. You just have to bypass the activation screen (hit next, slide down notification bar, bring up task manager and swipe away the activation app) then dial *228 to activate the phone since it is 3G only. Do not try to activate through the My Verizon website, it will not work. I went from a Galaxy S3 to the Moto G.

Only if you purchase the phone through here as verizon doesnt offer this phone as a contract phone anymore. Its not a new upcoming phone

Yes. After the phone is delivered, you will need to call Verizon and they will walk you through getting it activated. Most phones can be done by calling *228, but this one cannot.

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.

No. I tried that. The ESN is bad so this phone is unable to activate with Verizon. I had to return the phone.

I have a contract so I can't tell you if it will work with a no contract plan. I do know that Verizon will not activate a prepaid phone on contract unless the phone has at least 6 months of use as a pre paid. I tried buying a new pre paid and having it added to my contract and it was a no go. I would call verizon customer service and ask them.

I don't know. I already had monthly service with verizon so just activated it with my current number.

No it won't. Verizon won't activate it because it's not a Verizon brand phone. I bought this and it's still in the box because they wouldn't do it. AT&T however will send you a sim card for it, with your same number, and get much better phone service and customer service. It's worth it to switch!

Hi, you have to go to a Verizon Corporate store, they will give you the SIM. Retail dealers will charge you for the SIM card and activation. Found out the hard way.

If you buy a phone outright (new or used) you are not required to renew your contract. Just buy, receive in the mail, turn on, call your respective carrier and activate.

I activated mine. I had to take it to verizon and get a SIM card though. The fee for the card is $5.00. If you have the same phone already just slide the sim carc out of the previous one and replace in new phone and turn on. Everythg should just transfer over.

No you can't it says it can be used but no so don't buy it. Don't use a phone that says it is prepaid or no contract phones because it means the same thing look for another Verizon Phone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No, this is a prepaid phone, and it has to be activated for 6 months before it can be used on a contract line.
