if i buy a cingular go phone due to my phone breaking, will my sim card work in it since i have a contract?

Answer 1

yes. you may want to take the phone and sim by cingular and let them do thier activation stuff to it..although i used to have a gophone account and would swap my sim between 3 or 4 phones...some gophones some were unlocked GSM phones, without ever telling them.

a gophone doesn't differ from a prepaid phone like with other providers becuase the GSM technology itself has a system in place for prepaid services..so the phone doesn't have to. it's a standard GSM phone (except maybe locked to a cingular branded sim card) like you'd get with a contract.
