Can i have an iphone on verizon without a data plan?
I currently have a samsung brightside, which is a regular old phone. My friend offered me her old iphone 4S if my parents are ok with it. My upgrade isn't until late november. So would i be allowed to use her iphone, transfer my number and contacts over, yet not have a data plan for 6 months til i get my upgrade and my whole family gets iphones and data? I really don't wanna have to pay for data right now. I have verizon would they allow no data but have an iphone? Cuz i can just use Wi-Fi
No you can't - Verizon Wireless requires a data plan when using a smart phone. Some carriers do not, and will allow you to use a smart phone without a data plan - which still gives you Wi-Fi access.
This is how Verizon Wireless does it.
- What is data in a Verizon data plan? I just got an iphone 5 and am having some trouble. I know that data includes email, accounts and any internet websites (facebook, youtube, netflix). Does it use up data to have multiple internet browsers open even though I only look at one at a time? Is it possible to use up data when the phone is off? Also, is taking a picture, playing app games, listening to music, and siri considered to be "data" on the data plan? Is there an overall explanation for what a data plan is?
- Use an iPhone without a data plan? (verizon)? I have a flip phone that has been failing me lately. I went to verizon and saw a very small selection of phones that don't require data plans, and out of the selection there weren't any that I saw good reviews for. I know the iphone is a good quality phone, and I really want to get one, but I'm not looking to spend money on the data plan that I know I won't use. is there a way to have an iphone and not have to pay for the internet?
- How to use an iPhone on Verizon without a data plan? I'm so sick of the garbage basic phones Verizon has, but I have no need for data (I would only ever use Wi-Fi).
- How to activate a verizon iphone without a data plan? I heard that if you buy a verizon iphone on ebay or if someone gives you their old one, you could jailbreak it and activate with out paying for a data plan. Could I buy one from the verizon store and jailbreak it to use it without a data plan?
