So i preordered 3 iPhones. One will be going to the line that i actually ordered it to. The second one will be swapped with another phone that wasn't eligible for the subsidized cost. If I turn on the new iPhone, does it automatically register or is there a way i can tell it what number i want it to be linked to?
Also, I upgraded a 3rd line on my account with the intention to sell. Now, if activating the iPhone is as simple as turning it on, how do I sell the phone "unlinked" to the number it should be upgrading? AKA I dont want to sell it, then that person turns on the phone and all of a sudden its linked to my account.

I have heard some people in other threads saying go to AT&T or call them, but obviously that will be VERY time inefficient on launch day(all phones are being shipped to my house).

thanks in advance!
