I am on AT&amp;T. If I buy this phone and move sims will AT&amp;T ask me to change plans when I set up the network on the new phone?

I don't believe so. They can't do that and plus this phone is an AT&T phone. You just pop your sim card in and it wotks automatically. But if they give you and issues just threaten to leave them for T-Mobile.

If the phone is unlocked then no it does not have to have an AT&T; plan. I have two Bursts that are unlocked and I have Straight Talk plans. You will need a SIM card from your provider which you will have to install in the phone. Easy to do. There is also some set up your provider will tell you how to do. One annoying thing is that the phone is branded for AT&T; therefore there are AT&T; apps on the phone that you cannot remove.

Best to go to an AT&T; store and have sales person test the SIM in the phone or ask if the one you want to buy is OK.

Switching is as we imagine!! If you have 2 sims working (1 for voice / sms, 1 for data), you can receive calls from both carriers!! Even if you have an open call you can receive an incoming call from the other sim!! I have one for data and other for calls, but both receives calls!! When you want to call your phone system ask what sim to be used!! When you send sms, system also ask what sim to used!! I love this!!

You can keep your old number. Either use your old sims card (if it is originally from at&t;) or when you set your phone up, choose the option of keeping an existing number.

Yes. Call AT&T customer service and tell them you have purchased the phone to replace existing phone. They will ask for Pantech phone info (ID #, etc). Can use your existing plan, but will need to add Data Plan ($20/up) to use the mobile data feature when WiFi not available. You should be able to use your existing SIM Card from old phone also. I did all of above.

Yes. Just take the SIM card out of your current phone and put it in this phone. That's what I did. I've had it for several months and its a great phone. This same phone is featured on AT&T;'s website for lots more money. Ripoff!

If you have an AT&T; phone right now, you can swap your sim card from your old phone to the new one. The store will do it for you, but look up on the internet on how to swap sim cards. It's easy. Your account will not change.

Yes you can keep your old phone number/SIM card, but you won't get the free air time. The free air time is only for new accounts and new activations. Be sure that this phone is compatible with your current wireless service. If you don't have AT&T; or possibly PureTalk USA, you may not be able to use this phone.

You will have to get a new sim car if you want to transfer your existing phone number to go phone, this sim car will work with att or go phone. But you dont need to buy it for att because they will provide a new one with a new contract but this will with go phone for sure.

I'm also interested in purchasing this phone however i spoke to AT&T; they said if I use a SIM which does not have data plan, they will automatically start charging me with the data plan since this is a smart phone:(

I don't know what PURE TALK is. But you can put your old sim card in the new phone and that would probably allow you to use whatever network. If all else fails, call AT&T; or Pure Talk.

That's up to your phone provider not the phones themselves. If its Verizon AT&T; whoever just tell them to set your lines to rollover.
