will prepaid cell phones work with a registerd sim card?
ok well i lost my phone and i got a replacment with the sim card now i was wondering if i buy a prepaid cell phone and put my registered sim card from at&t into the phone that it will work like sending text messages and making calls and all that.
ok but if what if i put the sim card in another phone like a virgin mobile phone would that work?
As long as it is a prepaid AT&T cell phone, no problem. My mothers phone broke a couple of months ago I bought her an AT&T prepaid cell phone took her AT&T sim card and put in it. She has had no problems since.
I am sure it will if it’s the same phone company’s prepaid sim card. But why don’t you ask them?

It will work as long as the prepaid phone you buy is for AT&T. The official answer from AT&T customer service is no, you can’t do that, but you totally can.
You may also want to consider looking on Craigslist and in secondhand shops (that sell cell phones) for a replacement. Sometimes you can score great deals that are far preferable to cheap prepaid phones.
