I’m in the same boat as jaylou180, I can’t add it to my cart while logged in, only while I’m logged out. I guess it’s only for new customers =/

I have a question: Does it come with headphones? Cause mine went through the wash and they work fine, I just don’t know how long the will last.

couldnt you add a line and cancel the other??? although at&t might hit you with a cancelation fee on the canceled line??? thats tricky..and im not surprised about the customer service you recieved either..!!

..i dont think walmart will have at&t contracts waiting for you to sign before selling the phone..im sure you will need to activate through itunes..similar to the first gen.if thats the case then when you create a ISPW through pwnage you can activate the phone and be set..maybe???

I’m a customer already and cannot upgrade to the $99 iphone either. I called ATT and they told me that I had two options.
1. cancel my contract (pay 175 cancellation fee) and then get the 99 phone. why?
2. add a line with the the refurbished phone. I only need one phone number and one iphone.
I asked to speak with a supervisor and the guy told me that my employer was responsible for setting the prices on phones LOL. That I should call them. I could not believe he was telling me this. I do get a discounted rate plans but why would ATT let others set prices on phones? the guy could not give me an answer and hung up on me.
Does anyone know a way to upgrade or buy the phone and transfer the current number?
I appreciate any info.

That should work in theory, but I doubt that you can buy one at WalMart without a contract. In fact, if you could buy one without a contract, wouldn’t it just work with your existing iPhone sim? I don’t really know how that would work.
