Leaving Apple Store without Activation (Tmobile)

[lorax3]

If I have an iPhone 6 on Tmobile for pickup at the Apple Store, can I leave the store without activating? It's a gift for my gf, and I don't want to activate it until I give it to her.

Can I do this, or am I better off ordering one online for delivery so I don't have to activate right away?

Nice try, scalper!



Just kidding. I bought a 5s T-Mobile version last year to use on AT&T and I told them in the store when I picked it up that I would take care of it at home. They didn't put up any resistance. You should be fine.

Depends on the store and the employee.

Don't think so. The T-Mobile version at Apple store is contrary free and unlocked. No reason to activate in store
