A:Answer Yes, it can.
That's my preferred cell phone carrier. I am using this phone with Consumer Cellular right now, and it works great.
Just be advised that initially you will have to reboot your phone several times for it to work correctly.
After setting up the phone, I tried to make a call and it did not work. I rebooted (turned the phone off and on again) and it worked.
Next I had trouble sending and receiving texts. I rebooted the phone again, and the texts worked fine.
Then my sister sent me a picture in a text. I could not see it. I rebooted the phone, and, sure enough, it worked.
Any problems, call Consumer Cellular. Their customer service is top notch.
