whats the catch?

Since we took my husband off our family plan I pay 108/month with taxes/fees for just one smartphone. My contract is up next month and it looks like a prepaid plan offers me enough minutes/text/data for only 60/month. Do I get the same service? I know the phone will cost more, but if I'm saving around 500/year on the plan that should help with the phone cost. What phones can or can't be used with a prepaid plan?

You can only use 3G only phones. No 4G LTE phones can be activated on a prepaid plan.

I'm most definitely NOT a VZW employee. If a post answered your question, please mark it as the answer.

Basically only the horrible 3g low end phones can be used on VZW's prepaid service. VZW is apparently doing this to force people into their EXPENSIVE postpaid 4g services.
