Hi. I don´t get the "virgin mobile" and "no-contract phone" relationship. Can I use this cell phone with any carrier even international ones?

You buy the phone but the service through virgin Mobile. You pick a monthly plan after you buy the phone but your not locked into a contract so if you don't like virgin mobile you can leave without penalty or fees. I'm not sure about international stuff but if you have other questions you can go to virgin mobile's website and live chat with a representative.

You use it with Virgin but it's a monthly thing. No contract. You just pay each month but you can cancel whenever and there's no fee for that or anything.

Hi Johnny, Wish I could answer that for you. I guess you should contact Virgin Mobile and find out for sure. I use Sprint and love this phone. My first one was dropped and crashed...so was able to find this and ordered another. Good Luck!

No, this is an unlocked phone, so you can put any sim card in it, it doesn't go with a contract

The no Contract thing is more of a question of what US Cellular offers. I am using my for US Cellular, but I do have a contract for my wifes phone. They phones are not regional, and I travel with mine all the time. Again, it's up to what plan you have as to wether you are charged for roaming. I do find my battery to drain really fast when I'm outside of my normal service area.

No. At least not in the USA. Virgin Mobile USA uses a CDMA system (like Verizon and Sprint). This phone is a GSM system unit (it uses a SIM card to hold the phone number and many of the phone's qualities). The two systems are not compatible. Even if this phone were a CDMA phone, Virgin would not let you use it on their system in the USA. They do not have a "bring tour own phone' program and require that phones used on their system (which broadcasts over Sprint's system) to have Virgin's software pre-installed so that the phones must be purchased from Virgin.

Maybe Sprint, Verizon or Cricket. I don't know why you would want to get it flashed to Sprint, unless you have a contract already and need a cheap phone to finishit. Virgin Mobile IS Sprint--just for a lower price and without roaming. So if you don't already have a contract your're better off just doing VM. I seem to recall news that Verizon would flash other carriers' phones to their network. If so you would need to get that done through a local store. Cricket will definitely flash other carriers' phones. I don't know if you are more likely to get that done at a company owned or franchise outlet, but it's possible.

I personally dont know. I assume that the plan is attached to your number. Before buying, call virgin mobile. Giving you head warning though, this phone gets problems after 6 months.

Hi there, I'm not sure. Probably best to call and find out for sure from Virgin Mobile directly at 1-888-322-1122. They did take care of me in the end, but I know now to call for complete clarification. If you can use it's a great deal! Good luck.

I use virgin mobile. You'll have to check their plans on their website. It varies depending on how much data you require.

All Virgin Mobile phones are locked to VM's service area. These are CDMA phones, and as such have no SIM card or slot.

I don't know, I use it with the monthly pay as you go plan. You would probably have to call Virgin Mobile and ask them.

I live in usa. So obv mine works in the us. But I don't think it matters at all. Try it. If virgin mobile says it won't work then return it. But u shouldn't have any problems
