Can I change my contract phone (contract exspired) to a prepaid phone

I bought a used Verizon GL Envy 3 Postpay contract phone.  THe phone is now without contract.  I was told I can switch it over to a prepaid phone, but when calling Verizon they told me I could not.  I have friends that have done this, so I know it can be done. 

 

THe ESN is clear, I had it checked.  Does anyone know about how to get this done?

 

Thanks

If the phone requires a data package on postpaid service (basically if it falls into the 3GMM or smartphone categories), then it cannot be activated on pre-paid service.  The enV3 requires a data package because it is a 3GMM phone, so it cannot be used on prepaid.

Yes can't use the ENV3 on prepaid but you could buy a used ENV2 or any non 3g phone.   Mary
