Yes, generally, but not always. The phone may need to be unlocked or there may be other restrictions. The specifics will depend on your carrier and phone.

The phone will work either way on most Cell phone systems.

It really depends on what you sign up for, even though the retailers may not want you to know that.

Is the Go phone a good phone to get if you barely use your cell phone?

It is a great phone to get for you if you don't use your phone heavily because it is prepaid. However, if you get a plan for 500 mobile minutes on a non-prepaid phone, and you only use 3, it's a waste of money.

What are the major advantages of using a prepaid cell phone?

One major advantage of having a prepaid cell phone is that you are not bound by a contract. Many non-prepaid cell phones require a minimum two year contract. Another advantage is that with prepaid, you pay for minutes in advance, so you never have to worry about going over your minutes and paying overage fees.

Can you transfer your ATT GoPhone SIM card into another ATT non-GoPhone and have it work?

Yes you can. If you already have a plan, install your old sim card in the new phone after you charge the battery and turn it on. Do not "activate" the phone! Also, you can use a prepaid "Go Phone" card in a non "Go Phone" phone. I know this from first hand experience; I called AT&T (via 611) from my Samsung Go Phone and they unlocked the SIM card for me, for free. I found out that when a person buys a prepaid AT&T phone and they get the $25.00 to $75.00 worth of free airtime the Go Phone's SIM cared is locked to the phone, after the phone is activated; however, once that obligation has been completed then they can unlock the SIM card and it will work in any regular(or prepaid) AT&T phone.

Can you buy an ATT phone without a plan in an ATT store that is not a go phone?

Sure, I bought a LG VU the other day and didn't sign a contract. As long as you have a working phone number on a GSM system the phone you buy will work. T-mobil and ATT phones will cross. You do want to make sure the phone is GSM and unlocked. You will pay more for the non contract phone. Th eLG VU is $49.00 with and $249.00 without.
