All iPads ATT the Spoiler!

ATT - back at it!

Looks like ATT is playing spoiler! On an Apple product!

Can Apple kick them out? They did keep them exclusive for those painful years - undeservedly so!

Guess we have to be happy ATT will not lock the entire device! 🙄

I think I read on Macrumors that T-Mobile locks out the cellular if you buy it from them, not if you buy it through Apple.

Wait, what?

TMobile has responded that it does not lock your sim. Only sprint and AT&T.

T-Mobile isn't willing to help with Apple sim activation

I can't get my iPad air 2 added to my t-mobile account. When I call for support they just say "You need a t-mobile sim." They're offering to give me a t-mo sim for free, but don't seem too interested in actually supporting the Apple sim beyond a few words on Twitter.

Follow up: I was tweeting back and forth w/t-mo support who, unlike their phone tech support, acknowledged I shouldn't need a t-mobile sim and can use the Apple sim.

They fixed whatever issues were there because I tried again this morning and was able to activate cellular data and chose their "double your data" option successfully.
