No more GoPhone for SmartPhones? Alternative: one-month-contract
Jun 24 2009, 11:46 AM EDT
I tried to run my iPhone using an AT&T prepaid card, and it did not work. Called 611 and they told me that, as of June 15 2009, they do not allow iPhones using prepaid. My card did also not work with various other unlocked phones. I finally went to the AT&T store because I thought that maybe the card was locked to one particular phone, but it _did_ work with other prepaid phones.I am not sure how they can tell what kind of phone I use - they probably check on the IMEI.Workaround: You can get a regular contract with AT&T as well as with t-mobile and go month to month. You do not have to subscribe to a 24-month-contract. The cheapest option seems to start at about 60 USD a month. Do you find this valuable? |

My iPhone worked with prepaid. I signed up for it on 12 June and it worked through 23 June. Maybe I JUST beat the deadline.
