No. This is a Verizon "Branded" phone, Verizon does not "lock" phones like other cell phone carriers, so it can be used with almost any carrier, but this is primarily a CDMA phone, NOT a GSM phone. While it may work with a GSM carrier (T-Mobile or AT&T) it does not have access to all the frequencies that a typical GSM phone would. Coverage and reception quality would be greatly reduced. Your best bet is to look for "unlocked" phones, as they have transmitters and receivers for both GSM and CDMA (NOTE: not all "unlocked" phones are CDMA capable, please use caution when researching options, as some manufacturers bury this deep in the specifications or descriptions)
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.It should be , i dont see why not! But you can ask a carrier that u want to just make sure that it does before you buy a new phone or you can make payments on a new contract. But really i don't see why u can't use the new phone on the service u want. You just want service on the phone that u bought not a big bill on it.
