Can I bring my own Verizon-compatible phone?

Yes, you may! You can get a Verizon-compatible phone from the retailer of your choice. You’ll have to activate it with a new SIM Card from us. We’ll point you to the right option for your phone and give you instructions on how to replace it.

Can I keep my current SIM card?

No, your current SIM card is not compatible with the Verizon network. It is crucial that you do not remove the new SIM card, or switch it with your current one, as this will cause you to not connect to the Verizon network.

How can I activate my new device?

If you got your new phone (or SIM) from our online store, text the word ONESTEP to 611611 from your old phone and follow the prompts. If you got your new phone or SIM at a local retail store, follow the instructions that came in your package to transfer your service to your new device.

How can I request a new SIM Card?

To request a new SIM Card, please call 866-667-6437.

What will happen to my Plan and benefits after I switch to the Verizon network?

You get to keep them! Your Plan and benefits will be transferred, and your Service End Date won’t change once your upgrade is complete.

What will happen if I don’t replace my phone?

We may reach out to you in the future if and when a phone replacement becomes necessary to maintain reliable service. Until then, you can choose to keep your existing phone; however, doing so means you will not have access to the Verizon network.

How can I transfer my content to my new phone?

You can use the Transfer Wizard app to move messages, contacts, images, and more from one phone to the next. All you need is good Wi-Fi.
