Can I activate a prepaid phone onto my existing contract?

I Bought a prepaid Verizon exceed2 phone off of craigslist and I can't seem to activate it on my existing Verizon phone number. Is it possible or did I get screwed?

We can assist in looking into this matter, Orury1988! How are you trying to activate it? Are you doing it online? Are you getting an error message when you try to activate, and if so, what is it? Please share these details, and we can work together to see if you'll be able to use this device.
Thanks,

Can i activate any verizon phone to my contract if mine broke?

My phone is broken and I am far from my upgrade date, can i buy any verizon cell phone via ebay or wallmart or anything and activate it onto my existing contract number?

Yes. As long as it is a Verizon branded device that is not suspended, blacklisted, banned, reported lost/stolen, etc and is eligible to be activated on your type of account.

Can I activate a missing phone so that I can find it?

Can I activate a missing phone so that I can find it?

No. If it isn't online, there is nothing you can do. You must have already activated Find My iPhone (iPad) on the device and it must have an active WiFi or cellular Internet connection to locate it.
In any case, at a minimum, you should follow Apple's advice for when you lose an iDevice: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5668

The 3GS was not sold as an unlocked phone in the US 2 years ago and AT&T did not offer unlocking then.
You bought a hacked phone. The Apple servers can detect the hack and have now disabled activation. Contact AT&T and find out if you qualify to have it unlocked or buy a new legitimately unlocked phone.

My i phone is desactivated i had to restart it from the begining but i can't activate my i phone it's said that the service is unavalaibal

Do you have a SIM in the phone?

Can't activate MAXX replacement phone

My RAZR MAXX was just replaced with a DROID MAXX (due to having no RAZR MAXX to send as a replacement).
The SIM card is a different size so I've tried activating it with both the card pre-installed in the phone as well as another card that was shipped with it. I have a decent signal but when I turn it on and try to activate it, the phone says it can't and suggests getting outside (which I've done).
I've tried using the online activation but it tells me, "none of the lines on your account are eligible to receive the Online Authorization Code" so that's no help either. I've selected the Activate/Switch Device option and selected my RAZR MAXX but then it tells me:
Your request cannot be completed
We cannot process your request at this time, please try again later.
which is not particularly helpful. I don't have another phone with me to call customer service and I'd really not rather have to go down to the store unless there's no other choice. As I've said, I've tried both the sim cards that came with the phone and I know they're inserted correctly. Any assistance would be great.

Fixed. I was able to borrow a phone and customer service walked me through it.

HT201365 Can I activate find my phone remotely if one if my iPhone is in Europe

Can I activate find my iPhone remotely if one of my phones is in Europe

What do you mean activate?
Find my iphone has to be turned on manually on the device itself before it is lost.
If it was activated prior to it's trip to Europe, you can track it.

Can't activate a old phone, help!

My aunt was on my plan but she switched to Cox yesterday. She gave me her old phone because mine barely works. I tried to activate it yesterday, online and by phone, and they both told me it couldn't be done because the phone must be deactivated first. But the problem is, it is deactivated. You can't call or text with it. We even got a message saying it was deactivated. Any ideas on how I can fix this? Please help! I'm tired of having a phone that dies after one phone call.

It is suspending pending disconnection... the disconnect will not be processed until the end of the current bill cycle.

Can I activate with a phone number from another state?

Hi, I'm thinking buying the phone but wanted to know if I can or how I can activate it with a number from another state. I travel between Hawaii and Nevada a lot and was thinking about getting a local number in Nevada for the iphone. However, all my billing adresses from credit cards have Hawaii addresses. I also don't have any kind of address in Nevada. Anyone know if this can be done?

reading the OP's statement...
The OP lives in Hawaii and wants to activate a iPhone with a Nevada phone number which the OP does not have yet. The OP also has not billing address in Nevada or any Nevada address. Now while AT&T will give you a out of state number and they will carry a out of state number with you. iTunes is set up to give you a local number, upon activating a new phone iTunes is not designed or equipted to let you choose which areacode you would to start your AT&T account.
*You are correct but not in the case of what the OP is asking for*... The OP does not currently have this number, so once again for the correct advice is below
+iTunes will not allow you to request a number from another state that is different from your billing address, you will have to call AT&T first to setup the account, then activate within iTunes+

I lost my phone. How can I activate my old phone?

I just lost my phone 2 days ago. It was a Samsung Convoy. The last time I broke my phone and had to switch to my old Nokia it was very easy. For some reason this time I keep running into dead ends on the website and countless ads for the backup service. Basically I am just looking for the spot where I can type in the id number for the phone to have it activate but I cannot find it. I also dialed the *228 on my nokia and it said it was programming for a couple minutes then said programming failed. Any suggestions on what to do now would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Good afternoon and thank you all for your suggestions. wadata, I'm sorry to hear you lost your phone but I have provided the steps for you to be able to activate or switch devices directly on My Verizon.
From My Verizon go under I want to… Device and select Activate or Switch Device.
Select your mobile number and device and select Next.
Select Next again.
Read and Accept the Terms and Conditions.
In the following screen you will be prompted to add the New Device ID and then Submit.

I can not activate my i phone 4 because of password which i dont know

please help me find out this question i bought the iphone 4 from craiglist guy ,unfortunately i didnot know that it had password and icloud account srill in it ,because it was working with my sim but yesturday i was trying to reset it on security and location something like that after rest the i phone turns on to put password for the [email protected] .I am very upset because it was not my fault that it is not working please help me to solve this issue. Thanks.

The only way to unlock this is with the original Apple ID and password. Nobody here can help you. Contact the seller. If he/she is unable or unwilling to help you, then the phone is most likely stolen. Which is why iOS 7 has an anti-theft feature; to prevent the situation that you now find yourself in.
