Question
I am switching from Verizon wireless to AT&T wireless,and am trying to find out how I can transfer my phone book listings from my old Verizon phone to my new AT&T phone.Can you help?
The good news, Larry, is that it is very easy and you dont' have to do anything. Take your Verizon phone with you to AT&T when you buy the new phone from AT&T and they will transfer the contacts for you. If you are buying on line, then after you buy the phone, take both phones in. If you are getting a SIM unlocked phone (not suggested), then you can buy a device at Fry's Electronics or other retailer of that nature that allows you to transfer your contracts from any phone to any other phone. There's also software like Data Pilot that comes with the connectors to do this also. Hope this helps.
