All of Virgin Mobile's "unlimited" cellular data plans include 2.5GB per month of high-speed 4G service, after which the service throttles down to 3G connection speeds. Get an iPhone 4 off contract with a micro sim (FYI: you can buy iPhone 4 without contract directly from AT&T or Apple, but it’s expensive) Mat, I just tried the steps and no joy. Here it is 10 days after you successfully got a GoPhone sim to work on your iPhone… surely AT&T hasn’t figured out a way to prevent this yet… DO YOU WORK, OWN, OR HAVE SOME SORT OF CONNECTION TO AT&T?! BECAUSE YOU ARE JUST HATING THE FACT THAT EDWARD IS A GREAT GUY, THAT IS HELPING A COUPLE OF PEOPLE THAT AT THIS BULL “CAPITALISM” MOMENT CANNOT AFFORD TO PAY FOR SUCH SERVICES THAT YOU STRONGLY BELIEVE WE SHOULD BE PAYING FOR…?! The search results do not include all providers or products, and may not compare all features relevant to you.You may need to restart the iPhone once to get calls to work, but activation is usually immediate after speaking with AT&T customer service. There are a number of popular Mobile Virtual Network Operators (MVNOs) that provide PAYG phone plans, with some even offering plans that last a whole year. These providers include:

Actually, all you need is an AT&T sim card and a non-iphone IMEI number. You don’t need to buy a gophone. You can use the IMEI number of any GSM (new or used) phone that is not an iphone. Want to turn an iPhone 4 into a pay go phone? David chimed in on our past prepaid iPhone article to describe how he got his iPhone 4 setup with a pay-go plan by transferring sim cards with AT&T. This method works to get pay-go calling and data use! How to setup an iPhone 4 as a Pay-Go phone For a long time, if you wanted an iPhone, you had to sign up with one of Apple's cellular service provider partners, which in the United States included AT&T Wireless, Verizon Wireless, and Sprint PCS. I then trimmed the SIM card to the size of the microSIM to fit into the iPhone 4. I used an Exacto knife.The biggest benefit of using your older iPhone with a prepaid or pay-as-you-go cellular service is that there are no long-term contracts. You can activate the phone for one month at a time. This is ideal if you're traveling overseas and want to use the iPhone with a local phone number and not pay a fortune in international roaming charges, or if you want to give your kids the older iPhone and provide them with cellular service in the United States without making a long-term financial commitment. I had activated a Samsung GoPhone minutes before I called AT&T, so was able to provide them with a phone number. You will probably discover that after a predetermined amount of cellular data usage each billing cycle, your connection speed will be throttled dramatically. Also, keep in mind that the iPhone 4/4S is only capable of a 3G cellular data connection, so even if 4G LTE connection speeds are offered by the service provider, the phone itself can't utilize it.

Each time you install a new micro-SIM chip into your iPhone and activate it, you're given a unique phone number. As long as you keep paying the monthly bill, you can retain that phone number. If you stop paying the bill, the phone number could be lost after between 45 and 90 days. You don’t need to jailbreak your iPhone. You can use the iPhone Configuration Utility to create your custom APN. I got it working on my iPhone 4 by following these instructions: If you go SIM only, you're free to leave your contract at any time with no penalty and can upgrade to the newest iPhone models as soon as they go on sale. Why choose an iPhone SIM only offer? In comparison, a prepaid plan will include a set amount of calls, texts and data to use within that expiry period — if you happen to use up your inclusions before the expiry, you’ll be without your inclusions until your next recharge, or you’ll need to add on extra inclusions.O2 iPhone SIM only customers also quality for some great benefits, such as money-off incentives and priority booking for events at O2 venues.

Perhaps you’re trying a prepaid card that’s still tied to the phone you bought it with? If I recall you can’t pull the SIM out of an existing Go Phone to use in an iphone for the first 90 (?) days. LOL So AT&T should be responsible for your conduct. If you want to steal services from them they should stop you or you are clear of any wrongdoing? Standard iPhone contract price points and tariffs factor in the cost of the handset as well as day to day use of the phone and this is reflected in their cost. Like so many other services, the unlimited data aspect of the plan includes 2.5GB per month of 4G service that, after it is used up, throttles down to 3G connection speeds for the remainder of the monthly billing cycle.It’s not theft when you pay for it, it just enables the feature which isn’t enabled by default on pay-go sim card. I am from Canada and am visiting the US for about three weeks. A pay-as-you-go plan was exactly what I needed. Yes you can use data by following the steps above. (I tried it today and it worked, on an iPhone 4 ofcourse) I installed it – turned off my phone – Reset Network settings – and it took maybe 5 minutes or so before it started to work. I turned 3G on/off a few times but i have it on now and it’s working great.
