how do i switch my Droid Maxx olfrom Verizon contract phone over to AT&T prepaid

I just recently went back to prepaid and I have 2 Droid Maxx's, I received a 100$ gift card through Verizon prepaid bit as soon as that's out I would love to go back to at&t. I bought a Verizon prepaid smart phone because I didn't know if you could use a contract phone on prepaid, but I was told you can its got a Sim card the droid does.. I would really appreciate it if any could give me some advice

You can tell by putting a non Verizon sim in. If it doesn't ask you for an unlock code, it's unlocked.

But, trust me - the Droid Maxx is definitely unlocked. I've used another sim in mine in Europe - it worked fine. And others have used it on T-Mobile and att.

I'm using mine on the AT&T network through Cricket. It works fine. When I reboot the phone I get an error message that says something like "unrecognized Sim" but you can just ignore or dismiss it and it works great. No problem.
