RE: straight talk and 5s
You can buy a simkit at walmart or order one online. Just register online insert your sim and away you go if you wish to do it yourself. I think if you go in to a store they will help you get everything going. I have had no problems just doing it myself. I chose the at sim as at the time I was activating my phones over to straighttalk I was traveling to part of the state where at had the only coverage. Good luck. -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Larry McCreary Sent: Tuesday, December 15, 2015 7:23 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: straight talk and 5s Hello, I would like to put an unlocked 5s on straight talk.

straight talk and 5s
Hello, I would like to put an unlocked 5s on straight talk. Does the 5s do well on this service and how is the easiest way to obtain a sim?

RE: straight talk and 5s
Hi Larry, I'm not from the States, but Straight Talk is what is known as an MVNO (mobile virtual network operator) which means they buy network space/capacity from the major providers like AT, Verizon, Sprint or T-Mobile as well as smaller regional providers at wholesale prices. Below is part of an article which explains this a bit more, you just have to do your research to see if Straight Talk would work for you in terms of coverage: Straight Talk and Net10 also have smartphones that run on the Sprint, Verizon and AT networks. Each phone has a home network that's either AT, T-Mobile, Sprint or Verizon. TracFone, Straight Talk and NET10 phones will favor their home network and refuse to roam in an area where the home network claims to have coverage. So if you have a phone whose home network is T-Mobile and you are in an area where T-Mobile has spotty coverage, the phone will refuse to roam on AT even if AT has a better signal. The Sprint based phones don't roam at all.
