I'm sure they will. You will need to port the old phone number to the new phone- it would be under the same contract with AT & T. I bought this phone because my son broke his other one. We just took out the sim card from his old phone and put it in the new one- so we had his same number and all contact info., and we didn't need to deal with AT & T. Never had a problem with AT & T customer service though, you should be able to go to any AT & T store and have them port over the info to the new phone.

I have T-Mobile and have had no problems with any of the phones I've bought that was unlocked. They have activated everyone of them. I will tell you this phone is not a smartphone. I bought 2 for my 2 young sons and they didn't like them.

i remember when i purchased the phone, i was using an at&t; sim card. i just popped it in and could start calling right away. however, i would also email the seller to confirm as well just in case, because it has been a while since i purchased it and im not sure if the sellers are the same anymore.

This is a used device. We changed carriers and no longer need an AT&T; device. There is no warranty but the device works well. It would simply need to be activated with a data plan through AT&T.;

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!

I suggest calling your carrier directly. The will be able to activate it or give the correct number to activate it.

If you buy it for her and she has AT&T;, it will automatically upgrade her to a data package because it will recognize that it is a smartphone and all smartphones through AT&T; with a contract have to have a data package. Learned that the hard way. :o(

I didnt have to do anything--it came unlocked and ready to go and i went to t-mobile (which has no contracts.) to get it activated. It was not connected to an AT&T; contract. When you buy an unlocked phone it cost more, but you arent obligated to ATT. If you bought a locked phone i believe you will have to get it activated at the AT&T; store.btw--its been a great phone!

It is not a smart phone and it takes a regular sim. AT&T will issue you a new sim at no cost for same account. Hope this helps

Hi, You have to unlock it first from AT&T. I went on line to follow their unlocking process, but it didn't work and they kept saying that I was locked in a contract. I finally called them to request unlocking the phone, but they gave me a very hard time. It's unlocked now, and I was under no contract with AT&T at the time of the unlocking. Any phone would have to be unlocked by the carrier company first before another carrier SIM card can be used, either in the US or any where in the world for that matter. I hope that helps.

no you do not have to pay ATT to activate. the phone is unlocked i assume. my girlfriend swapped her sim card and it worked fine. didnt even have to notify ATT or anything.

I had the phone through Verizon and had no problem getting it activated. I am not sure about at&T.;

you need to ask seller if it is still under contract. or ask seller for serial number and check with ATT. if not under contract you can use it as you like.

I bought this phone as a replacement for one that was lost at the airport. We got a new sim card from AT&T.; Our contract expired years ago and we did not have to renew it. If you're just replacing an old phone and your sim card is still activated, you don't need to renew a contract and can just install the old card in the new phone. It can connect to the web on a limited basis but AT&T; will charge you for using that feature. Hope this helps.

Yes, i have done this many times. all you have to do is take it into the store and they will transfer you sim card. However when buying online or from a third party be careful that you do not buy a stolen phone because AT&T; will lock out your account. If you buy from amazon and discover it is stolen they will refund your money though so i would suggest that. I am actually selling my wife's old blue lumia 900.

Yes... But you need to get a new sim card and activate it by calling AT&T enjoy your phone

We bought one once that had been set for another company,, Best bet would be to talk to AT&T.Love; mine!!

yes !.............but to be honest with you. I had nothing but problems with this phone and At&t; kept giving me the runaround and so I just purchased a cheaper phone on my own. At&t; would not replace the phone. The phone sucked !!!!
