    My mom has a premiere acct with att, and 3 iPhones. They're all content with their iPhone 4's, so I want to use one of their upgrades. (I'm not eligible until nov 25th, and ATT won't budge. :()

    So some dumb questions because I don't have time to search *duck*

    - Can I order for a premiere account on apples website?

    - Do I just need the account info (phone number, password, last 4 of social) or is there something else I need also?

    - Can I actually use one of their upgrades? (Order it online, and activate it on my account)

    I don't see why not. People sell/buy iPhones all the time and just pop in their sim card. Just make sure all the data plans are correct on the line you use for the upgrade and that your's is correct on your line. I don't know about the premiere accounts, but you could just use att's to be safe. Yeah you def need the last for soc. digits.
    I'm not positive on any of this, but it makes complete sense.

    Whomever's upgrade you use, THEY will be the ones with the 2 year contract extension - as long as they're cool with that, upgrade one of their phones and swap SIMs with them.

    She's ok with it, and she'll be using my upgrade in nov when I'm eligible.
