How can I switch my Straight Talk iPhone 5s over to a Verizon plan?
Okay, so about 4 months ago I bought an iPhone 5s. I decided to get a Straight Talk plan, because it is cheap and seemed fine. So my phone is currently on a Straight Talk plan. Straight Talk was great at first, and I never had an issue. I had a strong signal and my phone worked fine and fast without wifi. However, after a few months, my internet worked slowly, pictures took forever to load on Instagram and Facebook, I couldn't watch videos and everything took FOREVER to load. I read online that Straight Talk limits their data use and I guess I passed the amount of data I could use. This doesn't make sense to me, because it said unlimited data. So I want to switch to Verizon so I can have unlimited data and be able to load everything easily. How do you this? Is there any possible way I can fix my problem with Straight Talk? I'm only phone all the time, so I use a lot of data. Is Verizon a good plan to switch to? Or do you prefer another plan? Thanks. Sorry this is long.

Well it is unlimited data but they limit how much high speed internet you can use. Verizon is not unlimited, you will have to pay a huge amount more to get the same amount of high speed internet.

Straight talk uses ATT's towers to get service. If you want to pay a lot, probably double what you're paying now, go with Verizon. If you want to pay around the same price, maybe you can try AIO which has a higher limit.

AIO pro gives you 7gb of high speed internet per month for $70, AIO smart gives you 2gb for $55.

Verizon costs $100 a month for unlimited calling and texting plus 2gb of data, or 6gb for $120. Yeah it's expensive.

im not gonna bother ready your paragraph....... the answer is simple

IT CANT HAPPEN!

why?????????????????????------------------- VERIZON WILL NOT ACCEPT ANY IPHONE FROM ANOTHER CARRIER, PER APPLE/CARRIER CONTRACT. SAME WITH SPRINT AND VIRGIN MOBILE. tHESE ARE ALL CDMA CARRIERS. WITH CDMA, CARRIERS CAN CONTROL THE PHONE VIA ESN HEX MEID. IF THIS IPHONE IS A VERIZON SOLD IPHONE, THEN YOU CAN DO IT... IF NOT, YOU AIONT GETTING IT ON VERIZON NO MATTER HOW MUCH YOU BRIBE THEM.

You can't use a StraightTalk iPhone 5S on Verizon as that iPhone is GSM only and can't be used on CDMA network like Verizon's. What you can do is use MetroPCS or SimpleMobile with your iPhone. They've unlimited plans too yet cheaper than Verizon.

I think you need to delete your internet history and your phones cache. This will improve your phones speed.
