Only Verizon phones will work on their network. Sorry.
You can check ebay, craig's list for cheap phones. Just make sure you get the esn of the phone you're planning to buy before you purchase it and call Verizon. they can run the serial number to make sure it's not on their lost/stolen list.

No.
Simply put, Verizon Wireless operates on CDMA and T-Mobile operates on GSM. 2 different types of programming in the phone and are not compatible with each other.
Thanks,
Ted, Verizon Wireless Rep.
