The old phone needs to be sent back through asurion.
Unless you told them it was lost or stolen which is fraud.
If you don't send it back, with you actually telling them why you filed the insurance. They will bill you the retail price of the phone if it's not sent back.

the insurance company never said to send the old phone back.... i have had both for a couple of months now.
sorry, i was wrong. the new phone came from ATT not the insurance company.... so in this case, can i sell it?

If they don't ask for it back, well I don't see why not. How long have you had the new ohone?
Your better off confirming with att they don't want it back, in case you sell it then you get a surprise $400 charge on your bill for the replacement for not returning.
Verizon did it to me before I switched to sprint.

Better find out if they blacklisted the old phone's ESN number. If they did, forget anyone being able to activate it.
how can i find out?

Not questioning you.
Since att is gsm, the esn wouldn't matter though would it?

Actually it's an IMEI number, given that AT&T is a GSM carrier. And it would matter very much if the IMEI is blacklisted, because it means no service.
can you tell me how i can find out if my old phone is blacklisted?
Sorry, yes, I have cdma on the brain, lol.
I think that you can get the number under the about phone from the main settings and just ask the carrier.

Ahh okay, I've never been with a gsm carrier. Though I knew you could swap out sim cards and it be that. Didn't know about IMEI being blacklisted leaving the phone a paper weight.

I believe it's only recently been introduced stateside, carrier IMEI blacklisting. It's been around in the EU for a few years now. The whole idea is to make lost, missing and stolen phones into paperweights.
