[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1604477, member: 46727"] That's exactly what I was getting at. The Apple Store employee was playing "coy" with you because they fully know that the T-Mobile iPhone is exactly the same as the AT&T iPhone. The only thing that differentiates them from one another is the sim card. Both phones use GSM and will work on each other's network. If you buy a T-Mobile iPhone 6 from Apple it will come with a sim card already inserted but not activated. Just pop the sim card out (with paper clip) and take the phone to AT&T and tell them to activate it. They'll likely charge you for an AT&T sim ($10.00) and activate it with your number. [/QUOTE]
