please don't buy that phone, even with new battery it only stays on for about a hour, it crashes all the time, the operation system is outdated and Microsoft know longer supports it, you cannot download any new apps, or upgrade operation system, I got the nokia lumina it has windows 8, you can get it unlocked, good price to.

It was on the Verizon network and it did not work properly for me. You can get a prepaid plan just make sure you are on the right network. I returned it.

No, it's a simple, basic, telephone with a slide out keyboard for easier texting. I like mine, kind of wish the screen was bigger, but if all you want is a basic phone, this one is great. Depending on your carrier, I use Verizon and it will specifically ask me if I want to accept any Data charges (i.e. if I go into Canada with my phone).

This is not considered a Smart Phone, as it does not run a major operating system, like Apple, Android, or Windows. It does have a lot of nice features though.I use it on Verizon, and to the best of my knowledge, there is no Data Plan. Good luck on your quest.

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.

No data plan required and if it is a Verizon phone it will be fine. You can even change your service over yourself on Verizon website and not have to wait for a tech person to help you.

No, you need the SIM (with an internet plan) only if you don't have WIFI access.

Answer to the question "Can this be used without a data plan": Yes. I used it for two years with no data plans. It comes with a wifi to allow you connecting to the internet when wifi is available.

No data plan required. We gave our daughter this phone because she destroyed everything else. 1 year and still working. We have the phone on a family unlimited text plan, but that is all. No data plan.

It comes without a data plan and I purchased it to replace my phone that broke, but for which my plan still hadn't run its course until I could get an upgrade. It came with directions to fire it up on my pre-existing plan that I was replacing my broken phone from.
