cell phone help please

i currently have tmobile, the only reason why i have these fucks as a service provider is because i have about 3 different phones that i go back and forth using because tmobile uses SIM cards so i can take them out and put them in other phones

i can also use my phones across seas when i travel, that is the only reason

well tonight, i was bouncing at a club and at the end of the night i found a verizon flip phone, one of the newer ones, its the one with the full keyboard when flipped open

my question to all you phone guys, is there a way to unlock this phone so that i can use it, i dont know if unlock is the term to use, but you get what i mean, how can i use this phone basically because verizon doesnt use SIM cards, each phone is linked to a certain cell phone number

for those who know cell phones or have worked in the industry please let me know what i can do.

You need to have Dual, Tri, or Quad Band GSM Phone.
The requirements for the phone to work overseas needs to have 850/900/1800/1900 MHz.
I would look into AT&T service, there phones are compatible for overseas. (Check Ebay),,,,

i dont want to use it for tmobile, sorry if i wasnt clear. this is a verizon phone, specific to certain number

my question is, am i able to use this phone somehow if i switched to verizon later or gave it to my wife who has verizon now even though its not under my name

does this make more sense? basically, i found a phone, can i use it? :D

there is a way they can tell if it was reported stolen or lost.....they will know
That is correct do to fact Verizon does not use Sim card....
All they have to do is register that (IMEI #) under the person account name and they could track it down...
Phones that take a Sim card all they have to do is swap the Sim from a Phone to Phone with out the IMEI being register under the person account name,,,,

if the owner called it in as lost or stolen, they will not activate it for you. but its always worth a shot. if verizon tells you its a stolen phone, just tell them you bought it on ebay. the worst they can say is no. nothing anyone can do about it.
