I just ordered the new iPhone 6 plus t-mobile and wanted to know if anyone knew if the sim card would be on or with the phone for activation?
 
Nope, phones don't come with sim cards... but you can buy them online for a penny...

Use the promo code "SIMDEAL"

Or if you already had an iPhone, you can just swap out the sim card from your old iphone to the new one.
 
Actually, if you bought it with T-Mobile SIM card, it may come with it this time. If it doesn't, just go to Apple Store, they will have tons of them.
 
Yes, the T-Mobile unlocked one from the Apple store comes with the T-Mobile sim already installed. (Keep in mind that the SIM it comes with is only for contract plans; if you want to use a prepaid T-Mobile plan, you'll need to buy a SIM separately as stated above.)
 
If you bought the T-Mobile version at full retail it'll come with a SIM, you'll just have to have it activated.

I have purchased off contract 5c's from Apple for T-Mobile and they always come with a SIM.
