If I had an contract plan with alltel and i cancelled the contract can i use the phone as a prepaid phone
Yes you can, if the service person will reprogram the prepaid phone to your plan. Some will and others will say it can not be done. I have a freedom alltel prepaid changed to my very old 9.99 per month service plan.
It depends. You should still have Alltel until you get a letter in the mail saying you have Verizon. After you get the letter, you have to get Verizon phones and plans (you can keep all current phones and plans once u change to Verizon) Before you get the letter, you can still change to an Alltel phone or plan but Verizon customers cannot get Alltel stuff. Since it is already March, and if you did not get a letter saying you're gonna transition to Verizon than the merger is not gonna affect you . If u want to stay alltel once u get the letter, u can call customer service and request to stay on same plan as alltel customer. the letter does not state this, but my mom did it. she's still on prepaid alltel plan. prepaid alltel had Unlimited text, whereas, prepaid verion does not.
"This depends entirely on how much you plan to use your phone. You would have to look at how many minutes you are using currently, and decide if switching to a prepaid plan works for you. Typically, if you don't use your allotted minutes each month, then prepaid may be the way to go."
The different cell phone companies have their pros and cons. If you are looking for best prices you can get a prepaid phone or you can join larger companies like verizon and alltel for larger coverage areas. Verizon offers the best phone plan in California. A basic plan is around $39.99 and it is one of the cheapest in the nation.
Yes, since Verizon Wireless bought Alltel, you can use a Verizon Wireless phone on an existing Alltel plan.
You can use any phone you like with a prepaid plan but, you must purchase the phone first then add the plan.
no, your # and plan details are on you SIM
The first time I heard of prepaid wireless plans I was at an Alltel store. The deals were much better than being held down with a contract. That was five years ago and I still have the same plan even after Alltel was bought out by Verizon Wireless.
Maybe...
With Verizon Wireless, a prepaid phone needs to be on a prepaid plan for at least 6 months before it can be moved to a postpaid plan.
No u can use a prepaid card on it without a plan!:)
