Gr8ful how do you determine the network this is on? I looked and could not find or find a way to pick. I need Verizon for a friend who’s old 3G flipfone will die come December.

(The ebay/TracFone banner I saw with 1200 min, 1200 text and looks like 3GB of data for $49 also a great refill deal. On that you get to pick the network)

I had 4 to choose from so I picked Verizon as I have 7000 minutes of AT&T

highdesertranger, GPS means Global Position System.

On the phone I bought I had 4 choices & went Verizon as I have 7000+ minutes of AT&T.
