I would just rather own a different cell phone that is not on the website of the carrier which I already have. Is it possible to purchase just the cell phone itself without buying a new plan? I have a Sony Ericsson Z500a with Suncom and I would like to have the Suncom service but with a different phone. Is it possible to remove the SIM card and place it in the new phone?

ReplyDeleteYes it is - you can puchase a prepay phone and put your sim in it
ReplyDeleteyea all you got to do is buy the phone and then take the sim card from your other phone and put it in the phone you want
ReplyDeleteYep yep, but if you don't change plans or renew your plan then, there will be no special price on the new phone.
ReplyDelete1) If you purchase a cellphone from another carrier, it will need to be unlocked.
ReplyDelete2) If you're using an unlocked phone on a carrier it was not meant for, your carrier will usually NOT be able to guarantee as good of service, feature useage, or even troubleshooting. Especially if it's a model they don't even carry. I used to troubleshoot, and I can tell you that even if we did carry the model, not all our features would work on another carrier's phone, and if it was a model we didn't have - well, there's no information in our system on your phone. You're on your own, bub.
3) If you want to buy a cell phone without a plan, it will likely cost a lot. Phones aren't marked way, way up outside of a plan - they're marked way, way down when you sign onto a plan, because the carrier is guaranteed two years in which to make back the money they spent on pretty much giving away the phone.
There are many cel phones coming out in the market...the one I use is a Cricket cel...it has unlimited long distance..unlimited texting...and its really great...for a monthly fee of $ 59.95 a month..but the only thing is that there are not Crickets in all the states just yet...I know Texas has them Georgia and Northern California...You don't have to get a plan with them you buy the phone ( I paid $ 169.00) and then got one month free service then the following month I paid my bill...You can call anywhere in the United States...Google it...Cricket.com
