We have 3 transfer methods for contacts.

1) Transferring contact info to Microsoft Outlook.

2) Transferring contact info to Google  Contacts.

3) Sending a vCard to your phone.

 

As we can't check every phone just research which of these three options work with your phone.

If it's an older style phone most probably only the 3rd option might work.

Since it's a basic flip phone, would probably need to use option 3. If l want to transfer a lot of contacts, do l need to do each one separately ?

Do you have a way of sending a file to the phone? First try sending one vcard. If it works we will show how to send all.

How do l send a v card?
commented Apr 29, 2018 by Admin
We have the option of Email VCard. In the Phone Menu in members.

Have no clue how or if you can send it to your phone.

ls that on the website, or in the program? l can't seem to find it.

l successfully sent a vcard to 845641....@vzwpix.com.

Sent you a test file, check if it imports two contacts.
commented Apr 29, 2018 by Lazer
Only saved 1 contact.
commented Apr 29, 2018 by Admin
So your phone does not support multiple contacts in one v-card. You would need to send each one separately.
commented Apr 29, 2018 by Lazer
Ok. Thanks.

Do father & mother need to be on different vcards? Only difference would be the cell, all others home etc. is same. 1 contact would have been enough.
commented Apr 30, 2018 by Admin
Only the name is different.

i think that you can transfer to google contacts (or outlook), and than download all contacts from there as separate vCards,

and if you have a laptop, you can download it on the laptop, and transfer to your phone via Bluetooth!

but google doesn't have a option of separate vcards as you mentioned, what you'll need is a third party vcard splitter (or maybe JL can make a folder with separate vcards get saved there??)
