Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Although I was impressed with the rapid receipt of this phone, I am THOROUGHLY DISAPPOINTED and feel that the information regarding this item was incomplete and misleading. When I tried activating this VERIZON phone through Verizon, I was told that it is a pre-paid ONLY phone and that it must be activated as a pre-paid phone for 6 months before it can be assigned to a post-paid number. This seems like a ridiculous thing to me, but apparently there is no way around it. This information SHOULD have been stated clearly and succinctly in the product specifications, specifically in the main title description for this item. The phone itself is in the advertised, stated physical condition and I have been happy with the follow-on model of this phone, so I'm sure I would have been happy with this particular one had I been able to actually use it.
