Alltel was aquired by Verizon. Call Verizon customerservice. It may not be possible to use the phone with verizon though. Alltel was GSM and Verizon is CDMA.
Alltel is owned now by Verizon. Take the phone to a corporate store , they will hook you up for sure!! Do not take it to just an authorized agent store...!
if youre trying to program your alltel phone number on a verizon phone yet keep your alltel service its not going to work. the phones are locked to the carriers and cannot be unlocked. depending on where your cellphone number is based out of your serivce will most likely turn into verizon anyway. but as far as i know right now you cannot use the verizon phones. i could be wrong, i live in an area that is going to become AT&T not verizon.
you cannot use a verizon phone on an alltel plan. you have to switch over to verizon to make that phone work. i tried getting a chocolate to work on alltel too and they would not do it.
You can use it on Alltel but until the Verizon/Alltel merger is complete you would only be able to send and receive text messages and make and receive phone calls. You would NOT be able to access any program that requires the internet and you would not be able to send or receive picture messages.
The easiest way to do this is after you add the ESN to you account is to dial *22801 and press send. It should say welcome to Alltel and then all you have to do is press 3 to program your phone and after that is successful you need to Dial *22801 again then press 2 to update your PRL and viola you phone will now be able to talk and text on your Alltel account

The phone should not be locked. Verizon phones will work on Alltels network. Once it is on the Alltel network you just need to update the PRL. Alltel phones use Alltels network and Verizons network so it really should not matter what name is on the phone.
