Right now I am currently on AT&T GoPhone $25 Unlimited messaging w/ 250 calling minutes plan.My phone is an AT&T Fusion. Around Christmastime, I am hoping to upgrade to an iPhone 5, but I do not want to be stuck with a two year contract.So I've done some research and saw that Straight Talk has an Unlimited Text, Calling, and Data plan for only $45 a month, which I can afford. Then I looked at the prices of their iPhone 5's and I about fell over, $700! So I decided I would buy an unlocked 32gb iPhone 5 (I haven't bought it yet, but I've seen some practical prices) on eBay, and then buy the Straight talk sim card to put in it. But as I looked up ways to do this, I saw that some people say you can, some say you cannot.So here's my questions:
Are unlocked iPhone 5's from eBay compatible with Straight Talk? If so, do they need to be compatible with T-Mobile, Verizon, At&t, or any other company?
Could I use my old sim card and phone number from my old AT&T phone and put them in my unlocked iPhone 5?
How would I know if the unlocked iPhone was a GSA or CDMA? Should I get a certain one for it to be compatible for Straight Talk? If so, which one?
Would I ever be able to use the same iPhone on another phone company (if I ever decided to switch)?
Anyone who has done this, was it simple or complicated? How's Straight Talk's reception, and data speed on iPhone's? Is Straight Talk a reliable company?
Please be specific as possible, I am very well confused!
Thank you!
