Do Pre-pay Cingular/AT&T phones work with Regular Cingular Sim Cards? My current Cingular Phone is dieing fast and i was wondering if by any chance a prepay phone could accept my regular service Sim card and work properly or not. Anyone know if it is possible of if certain phones can do it? Seeing the answers i have here i went to a local store to get the at&t/cingular Go phone (their prepay). Upon asking the Clerk some questions on the phone i asked if a regular service chip could be used on the phone only to be told that the phones (or chip don't remeber which) have been modified to prevent such useage. Is this true? Or was he just tring to make a sale on a reg service phone by lyin?

ONLY IF YOU KNOW A LOT ABOUT CINGULAR PHONES, WORK AT CINGULAR, OR HAVE A PANTECH DUO!!!!!!!!!! HELP!!!!!!!!!!? Ok so I have a Pantech Duo. Its the kind of cellphone that slides up and sideways. Its like a cousin of the Blackberry or whatever. And its for Cingular. I love this phone a lot and all that but that isin't my problem. My problem is that I go to Spain every summer for 2 months. And all the other years I went I had this other phone that I knew wouldn't work in Spain. So I would just bought a new phone for Spain only so that when I went I could still talk to my friends and stuff. But now that I have this new phone I'm wondering if it would work in Spain with my contract and all that stuff because I know it is the cousin of the Blackberry and I know that the Blackberry works all over because my cousin from Spain used it in the U.S. Anyway...I was wondering if anyone knew if there was some way I could get my Pantech Duo to work in Spain because I lost that other Spain phone and its just way easier if I have my phone with my contacts and pictures and stuff. PLEASE HELP IF YOU KNOW ANYTHING AT ALL! Because I'd rather get some stuff from here first then go straight to my Cingular store just to be told its not possible. THANK YOU! I'm sorry I meant at&t not cingular. I'm just used to the old name.

does anyone know if cingular phone support the at & t cell phone plans yet? I have an AT & T cell phone plan....Cingular bought out a few years ago, but I didnt have to change my plan. I dont want to change my plan, as I have alot of anytime minutes, and share with the family. Also we have text messaging on some of the phones. Cingular charges to recieve (read) messages as well as send them, where AT & T only charged to send. My kids text me all the time, and I send answers back from my computer. Does anyone know if I can upgrade my phone yet. A few months ago they told me i had to change my plan. If this is the case I think might change cell phone plans...like maybe go with verizon (and be all in) i know they dont charge per text (as other family members have this service) my contract expires in like a month (for the lastest phone that i have).

Is there anyway at all to switch verizon service between two verizon phones? I have the Samsung Alias and was wondering if I purchased like the LG En-v 2 or the Smasung Flipshot, is there any way that I could transfer my service plan between phones. Preferably at home, but if I could take it into the store that could be less convienyent but... First and foremore my question is there anyway to do it at home, like popping the sim cards out of cingular phones. I know verizon phones dont run on those though.
