Is there anything to actually activate in store? My biggest paranoia is soft and hard pulls so anything credit related is no go for me.
I was under the impression it would just be a prepaid refill + sim card which I just wanted to sell off.
Is this possible?

Did you have to provide any documentation? ID, credit check, etc? Or was it just payment and then out the door.
Also, how did you end up getting your prepaid number? Does it get assigned once you call and activate the sim?

Hm, then I'm assuming I might not have any issues selling the prepaid card + sim.
I guess the only hurdle at this point is trying to find a store that has one.

Yeah supply might be tight or non existent at this point. I think it was a scouting situation when I posted this thread originally
 
Any idea if they're willing to unlock at any point? My mother in law wants to upgrade from a 5c that was a hand me down and at this price she might just go for it, but she needs it for T-Mobile.
