T-Mobile to Verizon Switch?


Well, the title pretty much sums up my question.

But just to be clear.....My Boss has just got a new iPhone and he said I could have his Blackberry Curve if I wanted it.

He is on T-Mobile and I and on Verizon.

Is it possible to change the Curve from T-Mobile so I can use it on Verizon?

And if so, what do I need to do?

Thanks in advance

Davva

Don't switch to T-Mobile. Verizon has a much better range. Trust me when I say that as a recent trip to Jasper, Edmonton, Glacier, I had either poor or no connections while the Verizon users were doing just fine. Needless to say, I was disappointed.

He's not. He's switching to VZW. To the OP, the T-Mobile phone will not work on Verizon. Verizon is a CDMA carrier and T-Mobile is a GSM carrier. GSM and CDMA are different and incompatible technologies. Moreover, GSM phones use SIM cards, CDMA phone do not (in general).

Re: T-Mobile to Verizon Switch?


I switched to T-Mobile for the G1 from my Verizon 8703e; while I love the G1, the 3G service with T-Mobile is very spotty in my home (far north Dallas 'burbs).

If it weren't for the G1, I would likely have stuck with Verizon and gotten a new BBerry.
