I've never ordered a phone on Amazon, I am a US Cellular customer and once you purchase it do they just activate it like they do when you buy there?

Yes. I called from a different phone and had them activate it the day I received it. If you purchased it out of state you might want to let them know that, because it has something to do with the area code. They will instruct you on how to wipe it completely clean too! Hope this answers your question!

Yes, it is the same process. However if the phone requires a sim card you will need to order one from us cellular before you can activate it. The electrify m in particular does require one. After you get that you can either activate your new phone in the store or over the phone ( obviously don't call on the phone you are deactivating) hope this helps!

You have to have your own sim card. We had a lot of trouble with the phone that was sent to us. It was locked and we could not get it unlocked. We tried speaking with ATT and Samsung and neither was able to help us unlock the phone. We went to a local cell phone repair company who said they could not unlock the phone. We tried getting our money back from Amazon as well as the Amazon salesperson with no luck. This was a terrible experience and I will not buy anything from Amazon ever again.Hope you have better luck.

I went to the Verizon store and they set it up for me. They gave me a new Sim card and created the account but I insisted that I would pay for the service only when I needed it rather than when they set it up. They also initially told me there would be an activation fee each time I used the service. Obviously that would be ridiculous and they read further and determined this was not the case. I'v esuccessfully used the device several times now only, adding funds only when I need to use it.

You would own the phone. Att has nothing to do with Amazon. ;) I just bought one.

You need a sim card.. We belong to Verizon it was cheaper to buy phone thorough Amazon than use Insurance. Hope this helps you.

My phone was purchased from US Cellular but I suggest you contact US Cellular and give them the info and let them tell you if they can or cannot.

It appears that Amazon keeps cycling between unavailable and 1-2 weeks. That must be their way of internally "resetting" the clock for when the item will ship. I don't know of anyone else selling this phone unbranded.

I f you purchase the phone like I did through Amazon there is no contract. Plus the new Convoy 2 that I purchased was less expensive through Amazon then if I had purchased it at Verizon with an upgrade and a 2 year contract. By the way the phone is great.

I called Amazon today and the customer service rep told me that they are expecting to get 750 phones in late in the day on the 25th/early the 26th. She said she can't guarantee that Nokia will come through, but as of now, they should receive their first phones on the 25th/26th. I ordered on May 22 and she said my order should be among the first 750, but she didn't give me any information on the cut off date for being in the first shipment. I really hope this phone gets here sometime next week. Waiting is killing me!

YV, i purchased exactly same phone from amazone warehouse deals. It was mentioned unlocked. I took it to Pakistan. It did not work there. Then i had to return it to amazon, costing me 100 dollars in shipment.

Almost, once you receive it you need to call Verizon or go into a store to activate it. I did mine over the phone, took no more than 10 minutes.

Hi Doris, the phone I bought on Amazon is for Verizon. Just put in "sprint phone" in the Amazon search and one will come up.

If it's the exact model number shown here on Amazon, yes, it is a Verizon phone and they will activate it. I've had two of these and they both worked on Verizon's network. If it's slightly different, it may not work.

the same happend to me they dont sell unlocked phones and amazon knows it, the seller replied when i requested the same question your asking, but after spending 10 dollars tru unlocked phones website, he said that i refund will be granted and still none to this day, all you have to do is spend 10-15 dollars true unlocked sell phone site and thats it, PS i have an extra code to unlocking this phone hope it works #12998744

No, it's not an unlocked phone and now I'm trying to find a place to unblock the phone. In fact I bought the phone at Amazon site and I'm very upset because I've requested tho the site to sent me to the unlocked area and I bought the wrong phone based that!

Hello,The one that I ordered *did* come with a SIM card - I don't know if there is a guarantee that all of them will ship with a card, but I think it probably should. The card is the new "micro" size, I believe, so I couldn't just stick my old one into this phone. However, t-mobile makes it super easy to activate the new SIM (or "update" your SIM information into a new card...same phone number and stuff). Search for "activate tmobile sim" on google, and it's like the third link. Here's the link (hopefully Amazon doesn't remove it) - http://support.t-mobile.com/docs/DOC-4677.
