Can I get an iPhone 5c without a data plan?

I currently have N AT&T dumb phone and really want an iPhone but don't want the added cost of a data plan. I can just connect to Wi-Fi to use the features that require data. I have read about ways to buy and unlocked iPhone and turn off data and stuff but I want to hear from someone who has done it, If it has worked or not, and what the consequences are (ex does AT&T fine you or anything). Please give as much detail as possible and any info is helpful!

No you can't

Yes, get it from ebay.com

More than likely not… If you do it would have to be from Wal-Mart and you would have to still get a plan. Most carriers provide a cheap family plan though!

AT&T does not allow smartphones to be used without a smartphone data plan. They will add such a plan to your account as soon as the network detects you're using an iPhone.

Also, you're going to have to cut down your sim if you try to sneak in.
