Can I buy an iPhone through T-mobile and use a prepaid T-mobile plan?
So I was looking at the prepaid section of tmobiles site http://prepaid-phones.t-mobile.com/prepaid-plans and I saw a plan for 30$ a month 5gb data, 100 mins talk and unlimited text. This sounded like a really good deal, but when I went click "Shop phones" underneath "Get started", there were no iPhones listed. But when I click "bring your own device" it says I can use iPhones
I don't have an iPhone yet, so I couldn't use the bring your own thing. So is it possible to do the t-mobile thing where you get the phone, but make like a monthly payment to pay off the phone, but still get the 30$ a month plan I was looking at?
Yes you can.
Yes, but you have to pay outright for the phone. It's around $550 for the 5C, then the $30/month
The $30 is only for prepaid.
The $30 plan is prepaid. You can only get the iphone with monthly payment basis through postpaid.
Your only option is to buy the iphone in full and use with their prepaid plan.
- Would I be able to buy an iPhone 5s from a T-Mobile store and then activate the $30 prepaid plan? Like can I buy the phone at the store and activate it or do I have to buy the phone at Walmart while I get the plan.
- If I can buy a iphone 3 from somebody, can i use it with T-mobile prepaid? The former owner of the phone who is selling it says that they used it with T mobile on the prepaid and on the 2year plan. Would it still be possible for me to use it on the prepaid plan if I got a plan of my own through t-mobile?
- If I buy an unlocked Iphone, Can I use it with a prepaid phone plan? So I was going to buy an unlocked iphone 4 on craiglist for about 250 and my family doesn't like the thought of being on a contract. If I buy this phone will I be able to use with a prepaid phone plan.
- If I buy a iPhone 4s for Verizon Wireless, would I be able to use the prepaid plan? Currently, I'm a customer of Virgin Mobile. I have been having issues with getting good signal, so I'm considering switching to Verizon. I can't use any plan other than the prepaid plan, but I would rather buy the iPhone 4s from somewhere other than the Apple Store or Verizon online. Would I still be able to use the prepaid plan on this phone? Also, how would I pay each month? Is there a card I can buy?
