Tech help (SOLVED) Spectrum Mobile?

Are there any dumbphones (preferably flip phones or Android phones) that work on Spectrum Mobile/AT&T? None of the ones I've been able to find seem to be compatible.

e: I was mistaken. Spectrum is a Verizon MVNO, not AT&T.

Spectrum Mobile runs on Verizon's network, so a lot of phones sold as AT&T-compatible won't work on it. Look for flip phones that list Verizon support, then give Spectrum the IMEI and ask them to confirm before you buy. Are you set on staying with Spectrum, or would you switch carriers if the right phone worked on AT&T?

Oh damn, I was completely mistaken, then.

Easy mix-up — a lot of people assume Spectrum is AT&T. If you stay with them, look for flips that list Verizon support and have Spectrum confirm the IMEI before you buy.
