This phone is discontinued. Can I currently activate it with Verizon service?

Josh yes it will. I have used to when my phone died and my new one had to be mailed to me. You will just have to pick that phone when you activate it if you do it online

Maybe, if you have it "unlocked." I purchased the phone specifically to replace my son's phone on my Verizon account.

Yes. If you have Verizon, you can use it. All you need to do is go online, once you've obtained the phone, and do an ESN change (actually an MEID change) and that's it. You replacement phone should activate in about 5-15 minutes.

yes it can be activated with Verizon...fyi prepaid phones can also be activated through Verizon but they will try to tell you that you can't so you get into a contract.

Everything I've read from Verizon says yes, but I would take this phone to a VZW store before activating it and have them help with the transfer.

Yes you can activate and use with existing contract.That is what we did. Phone was like new and is still working great.

You should contact the service provider you wish to use. I activated mine on straight talk I just had to buy their sim card.

Not that I know of. I have Verizon and have no current updates. Bought this as replacment for my old phone that went to hell. Activation was'nt hard.

I should already be "unlocked". You probably need a service provider to send you a SIM card so you can activate it.

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 any Verizon store should be able to activate this phone Page Plus should also be able to activate this phone as long as it is not a prepaid model and any company should be able to transfer (port) any active number.

yes i believe you can. i have the same phone which i just replaced (from amazon) so this is the second LG VX5500 for me. I currently have a verizon plan with it. I didnt want to upgrade or sign a new contract either, so your on the right track. good luck, hope this helps.

I transferred my Verizon service onto this phone while under contract. As long as it is a Verizon Wireless cell phone, regardless of where you purchase it, service should be transferable.

I think so, but it was a Sprint phone & I use Verizon, so I was unable to activate.

Yes, depending on the carrier. My plan was to use the phone with PagePlus service but they could not activate it with Verizon because of a outstanding bill on the phone when I bought.
