Can i use my pay as you go plan with an iphone?

I currently have a prepaid at&t phone that is on the 50 dollar unlimited everything pay as you go plan. I want to buy an Iphone 4s and use that on the pay as you go plan. I just what to know if it would be possible to do this. I know i can't buy the Iphone from at&t so i was going to get one on ebay or amazon

I believe you can.

You can buy a Iphone and use it on a prepaid plan. But the prepaid plan will have to be a monthly plan not a pay as you go plan.

There are 2 types of prepaid plans. One is monthly where you get so many minutes and text messages and you have to add more airtime at the end of the 30 days if you have minutes left or not.

Pay as you go means that the minutes will add up and rollover as long as you add another airtime card before the service end date.

You could use the Net10 or Straight Talk bring your own phone program. You will have to buy a sim card for $15 from either Net10 or Straight Talk and a unlimited talk, text and web plan. The unlimited plans are $50 for Net10 and $45 from Straight Talk.

AT&T has a GoPhone (http://www.att.com/shop/wireless/gophone.html#fbid=Z-DVe7GpCQ1) which is pay as you go and you can use an iphone with the plan, but you have to get a separate data plan if you use any smart phone with AT&T GoPhone pay as you go.

You can use an iphone with other carriers that work on the AT&T network such as Airvoice wireless or H20 wireless which does not charge extra for data plans (there are other choices in your area even Walmart offerpay as you go plans).

AT&T will also unlock an iphone for you so you can use it on another carrier network, this takes 5 to 7 days for them to send you the unlocking process but its free and worth the wait. Go to the following link to apply for unlocking https://www.att.com/...ent/en_US/. If a site is charging you to unlock your iphone they are using AT&T free service so save your money.
