cell phone MUST match company you plan on using it with !!!!!!!!!!

Originally some could be matched to any company but thats no longer the
case!

use e bay phone finder to choose your phone, remember when changing
models sometimes the cost of accessoreies can overwhelm cost of phone,
things like vehicle chargers cases etc.

lastly get one from a seller with good feedback guaranteed activatable.

if someone left a big balance due you probably cant activate it on your
account.

of you contract is over check with other carriers, then visit yours,
tell them i am looking at verizon whats your best deal? i hate long
term contracts and changing phones so i understand the issues.

finally a cheap phone that doesnt work is money completely wasted.
