Delayed Activation for Christmas
I am getting an upgrade for my son for Christmas. What I want to do is order the phone thru the at&t store, keep it in its original box until Christmas and activate it Christmas morning after he opens the gift. He now has an Apple 4 and the new one will be the Galaxy 5.
Can I do this. The AT&T store about 2 miles from my house says there is no way. I have to activate it right at time of purchase discontinuing service to his old phone. Not much of a suprise because he was with me when we updated his mothers phone for her birthday. We had to tell her that the network was probably having trouble (for 8 hours) before we gae it to her for her birthday.

Phones purchased in store are activated at the time of purchase. If you order from online store, those can be activated later
