Cell Phone Question

Ok, so I had a phone through Bell Mobility. Through mostly my own damn fault the account went behind, was marked delinquent, and got closed and sent to collections.

I've paid all that off, and still have the phone. So what can I do with my phone now, since I obviously am not keen on getting another cell provider?

Is it still functional? Do you still want a new phone? If your answer is yes and yes, have you considered switching to Wind Mobile? Otherwise I think I saw an ad in school once of this couple that recycles old electronic devices. Or you can just throw it. It'll be outdated in no time anyway.

Bell sucks big mighty balls.

It works. I just charged it up yesterday and reset it to factory settings. No idea if it's switchable to a new plan or not; personally I'd rather just sell it if the buyer can use it.

why don't you post the details on it then? like model for instance?
let's just advise you based on absolutely no data whether your phone has any value

Well, first I need to know if it's resellABLE given that Bell Mobility held the plan on it to begin with; if it's not transferrable/unlockable/whatever magic voodoo you do to make phones work with any provider, there's no point in me bothering.

For those who care, it's a Samsung SPH-m300.

Well, obviously it will work with bell. Try googling to see if it's easily unlockable. I don't think it's going to sell for much. Maybe 50? Maybe less?
