[fernicus]

is this possible now?i have a friend thats not using his voyager anymore and i was wondering if i could use it....

also, is it possible to use jailbroken or cracked phones on verizon prepaid?

All you can do is ask - the Voyager does not, and never has required a data plan. Maybe Minnehaha can answer for sure.

[Minniehaha]

No the Voyager will not work on prepaid here is the reason and also some phones that will work with prepaid..

Most Verizon Wireless phones will work with our prepaid plans

The only phones that are not compatible with our service arePush to Talk, PDAs/Smartphones, advance data devices (BlackBerry, PalmOne Treo, etc.), PC Card devices and handsets with HTML Web browser such as the LG Dare, LG Voyager, Samsung Glyde, Samsung Omnia and Motorola Krave and all Dashboard-capable devices like the LG Chocolate 3, LG VX 8360, Motorola Rapture VU30, Nokia 7205 Intrigue and Samsung Renown SCH-u810. Keep in mind features such as V CAST video, Mobile TV, and Chaperone services are not available for prepaid service

Thank you, Minniehaha, for the very thorough answer! So any phone that has an html browser (a 3G capable phone) can't be sued on pre-paid

Of course, with the rumors flying about smartphones coming to pre-paid that may change....but they'll probably REQUIRE data; and those plans were more expensive than post-paid. The benefit was no contract and no credit check or deposit needed to start the pre-paid account.

Thanks for the info Minnie!!

Your Welcome Suzy, I don't think it would be worth the high cost to have a smart phone on a pre paid account.  I'll stay with my LG Accolade I'm very happy with it and has alot more features than my older pre paid phone had.

You would have to take phone in to your local store because the phone would have to be checked by a technician to see if it would work properly on Verizon wireless service.

You can visit our site at http://www.verizonwireless.com/b2c/storelocator/index.jsp to check for the nearest store to the area you are in.
