You won't need a data plan for this. You will need to connect to wifi to use apps, get on the Internet, or purchase things from the app store or iTunes. But just to play music/take pictures you won't need a data plan.

you don't have to have a data plan with this phone. I don't have a data plan because of the cost. You can access wifi spots though.

I'm unsure, mine has a sim card for service but u may be able to just have phone and text service without a data plan depending on who's offering the plan.

Whether or not you'll require a data plan is determined by your Carrier. We recommend contacting you Carrier and they'll be able to let you know whether or not you'll need one.

No it doesn't have to have internet connection although it is capable. My son's phone does not have a data plan but he is very careful to never use any data because it is very expensive without a plan. I also had to tell Verizon that we were not using a data plan with this phone.

It will operate without a data plan. However the carriers will detect you using the data and attempt to charge you. It's a fantastic phone and will work anywhere

No. However if you have no plan, you will be charged for the amount of data used. So, although there's no requirement, you probably want a plan.

No data needed. I had to call the carrier to set up the phone. If I tried signing it up online, it asked for a data plan.

You mean data traffic / internet connection? well, depends on your needs... it does NOT require, but it is a smartphone and not providing network kills a good portion of what smartphones offers best. Anyway not required.

No .you can use it with or without a data plan. That is why i got it simple talking and texting.

Yes. That's not a problem. They will include a monthly data fee, if it is not part of your plan already, (for updates) but not enough to use the internet regularly.

In order to use the internet services on this phone without wifi, you will have to have a data plan.

No, it is not. Which means you are not required to get a data plan with it. However, as many other non-smart phones it can connect to internet. If you want to avoid any extra charges, you can go under settings and just disable data transfer completely.

Yes I bought this phone and just added it online to my Verizon account. No data plan necessary. For the price the phone does the job.
