Hmm, on apples website and the apple store app i don't see an option to order AT&T full retail. Anyone able to do this?
 
Can't do full retail online you have to go through your carrier or go to a retail store. I ended up going through Verizon to keep my unlimited data

How did you do this? I don't see an option to purchase it because I'm due for an upgrade. Please run through the steps of how you got a 5s by keeping your plan. I see "month to month" but then it has a list of new plans and makes me choose them.

Will the Verizon phone function exactly like the ATT one on the ATT network?

Once you choose month to Month it should show your present minute plan then the next window shows the data option the unlimited option is right in the middle of the tiered plans they try to hide it, but mine was already selected.

First of all you will need a AT&T nano sim. When you place it in the Verizon iPhone you'll get HSPA+ data but not LTE but their HSPA+ is still faster than Verizon's 3G and in some locations as fast as their LTE.

I had this problem when I was doing dummy orders earlier today. You need to start the process from your account page and choose to upgrade your current phone. Then when you select month to month on the 5s is will already have your plan attached and let you keep unlimited

Thanks, another user pointed this out. I hope more people see this process because it's a little tricky. I got my order in and a ship by the 24th.
