Hi,
I am in a similar situation. I am planning on buying the iPhone from Verizon. Can you activate the Verizon iPhone from Europe with out a Verizon service? With a european SIM?
Were you able to activate the phone without being on verizon's network?
Thanks!
I don't understand what do you mean by activate. Activate is the term used to start a plan with Verizon which you don't have to do.
If you refer to get the phone unlocked, my guess is that Verizon is unlocked from factory. I bought a AT&T iPhone 5 without contract and unlocked it by iTunes and then used international operator SIM.
