Can I use a purchased iphone from apple store and then use my regular plan with no data on it? - 1
I'm using Tmobile and I've been in a family plan with no data. I'm planning to get rid of my flip phone and buy an iphone but i'm not planning to change plan with data. Can I do that?
Nope. Either leaving the Apple store or when you go to Tmobile they will place you on a data plan of some kind--e.g. To get it at the price you think you will be getting it for means you have to sign a new (data) contract. That's how carriers roll--e.g. Make money. Can't own a smartphone (on contract) and not have data. If you have a lot of Wi-Fi access for home, work, school, coffee shop, whatever, shop Tmobile for the best data package that fits your wallet before you start. Best luck.
I don't know if you are allowed to do that. But I do know that Net10 offers a $35 per 30 service days airtime card for unlimited talk, text and NO DATA. This may be an option for you if you want to use your new phone.
You will have to purchase a new sim card for Net10, register your phone with Net10 and purchase an airtime card for $35.
No cell carrier will service any smartphone without adding a data plan. That's always been the way it is.
- 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.
- Why does my iPhone sometimes send texts to other iPhones as iMessages then regular texts to iPhones? Like when I send a text to my friend that has an iphone, it usually sends as an iMessage then it will randomly send as just a regular text and it will be green and not blue.
- Why do I have to buy a data plan when buying a Iphone 4s from the apple store online? I'm buying a Verizon Iphone from the Apple store but why do I have to purchase a data plan right now? I planned on waiting until next month and just taking it to a store to get activated. Or is that not possible and i would just have to buy a unlocked phone?
- IPhone screen shows Apple icon then shuts off, then repeats I was updating my software on the iphone when the power went off, then the screen went black and showed the apple icon, then it shus off again, then it shows the apple icon. I plugged it into the computer but they computer does not recogniz it so I can't restore it. What do I do?
