Can the Jitterbug J phone be activated from another provider, like consumercellular.com?

You would actually need to become a "Jitterbug/GreatCall Customer". We use Verizon's towers so you'd still have the same great coverage....you would just pay your monthly fee to us. Plus, we have no contracts!-Sean from Jitterbug

I have never worked with consumer cellular but I can tell you that it works with the NET10 bring your own phone program perfectly. As long as you buy and unlocked phone and get the right sim from the carrier you want, it would probably work. Does consumer cellular have a "bring your own phone program"? That is probably the first thing you will need to find out.

Yes, the phone is not under contract and you can connect to your current provider.

Yes, just contact them before you order your jitterbug and before you cancel your current phone.

It worked, but no one will activate this phone in the U.S. I'm not sure about TJ. No one will active this no matter how much you pay. Not even cricket, i've tried. It's a waste of money.

What I would suggest is talk to your provider to make sure you can have it unlocked and use it at the place where you use it.

No SIM card with this phone. I bought one for my disabled sister after I talked to my carrier, AT&T;, to make sure they could add the Jitterbug phone to my Family and Friends, well after i bought it and took it down to the AT&T; store, the guy said, "No SIM card, cannot be added." Thankful it could be returned.

I would call Jitterbug & ask them. They have excellent customer service & I'm sure they can help you. And I definitely recommend this phone & service for your mother...it's so easy to use!

Not sure about Consumer Cellular,but I have us cellular and it works great. Keep in kind you can't use data services for fb or picture messages but phone calls work and so do regular text messages. This is a great set up. I love it! I live where there was very little no service and now get 2-3 bars!

Since Jitterbug piggybacks off Verizon towers, it gets the same coverage as Verizon. Granted I'm not a world traveler, but I've never experienced a dropped call in N.C. where I live or in any of the remote regions of Arizona where we vacationed last summer.

NO, NO, This is only a consumer cellular product. It bootleg's off of a AT&T; network per private contract. But the phone is simple to use and very reliable.

I don't know for certain but I think that's dependent on the service plan offered by Jitterbug. I didn't keep it long enough to activate

Yes, but after you receive it, you have to contact ring central tech support with the phone model etc. And they "activate" use of the phone on your account, can't just plug it in.
