Can I buy a Blackberry Storm off of ebay & have it activated w/out having to extend my contract?

Jennifer asked:


I have verizon & currently have a blackberry pearl. I want the storm but I’m not eligible for an upgrade for awhile & I don’t want to spend $500 on a new phone. If I find a verizon blackberry storm on ebay & buy it do I just take it to verizon to be activated? How does it work?? Thanks!

    You buy it. You get it. You call Verizon and tell them you want to activate it. They activate it. You don’t need to update your contract.
