IPhone on Virgin Mobile

[Dexstroyer]

Hey,

Guess what the wife wants an IPhone and were on Virgin Mobile.
After calling up last week I was told its unlikely due to something to do with TMobile and Apple, blah blah not sure,


So my question is:-

If I buy an Iphone and have it unlocked are there any quirks or things not to do, does it work properly as it should etc,

Found this site which seems to offer everything you need,

Just wondered if anyone has had some success with this.

Cheers,

Before I switched to my HTC Desire I had an iPhone on virgin and it worked perfectly.

Great,

And is anything affected with your contract, she has the unlt data, would that still work as normal?

[dilli-theclaw]

Yup that's fine. Just remember 'unlimited' is 1gb. Mind you I never used any where near that much in a month but it is worth remembering.

I'm using an iPhone, can't get mms but everything else works like a charm

my unlimited Internet is 2gb which is pretty decent

Tell her to look at the HTC Desire instead, it's better than the iphone.

If you are on a contract with Tmobile and tell em you are leaving because you want an Iphone you may well get offered one.

No its with VM but as far as I am aware Tmobile provide the air time, I may be wrong though,

I just mentioned that cuz you said its something to do with Tmobile and Apple

Well if you do manage to get a HTC Desire, it's not bad either. That's what I've got on my VM contract.

t mobile only let virgin use they crap network

[jb66]

t-mobile is a crap network, if it wasnt for the staff deal i'd be back with o2

[Dexstroyer]

As far as coverage is concerned none of the VM (tmobile network) phones I have suffer from lack of signal
