Dumb newby question about 3G units
- Thread starter pennicat
- Start date
That would get very expensive, very fast. I'll probably end up going with
AT&T as well.
On the good side.....the AT&T store is the closest to me
Updated Verizon Info
Okay, so after talking to 3 people who all told me that the activation fee was for real - the last 2 people even told me that there would be a $15 suspension fee - I asked the last woman I was talking to to please look it up on her computer and tell me exactly what it said. As it turns out, if you sign up for 3G directly from your IPad and pre-pay with a credit or debit card, there is no activation fee. The bottom line is that the people on the phones have not been informed of what's going on. Frustrating, indeed, but I am so happy to hear that there will not be a fee. Verizon is my choice simply because the coverage through AT&T is so spotty.

I can confirm the same. After going through 2 customer service reps who swore there was an activation fee, I got to someone who had a pulse and a clue who dug up the information and confirmed that there is no activation or cancellation fee if purchased via the Ipad 2 directly.
