Someone gave me a Samsung Galaxy S5 that is out of contract. I have a prepaid plan and would like to replace my current phone with this phone but I want to keep my same number. Can I replace the sim card that is in the Samsung and then just switch devices?

That was very kind of them to give you that phone, jackson7577! I can certainly understand wanting to keep your same number with the new phone. Great news! You can switch out to the other phone right through your My Verizon account online. Click here to log in and swap the phone: http://spr.ly/6588859zs.

If you mean move your number to prepaid from a postpaid account, go to a company store and they will move you over and help you start a new plan.  

Changing a phone on existing service is already given in the earlier post
