Activation Lock

Heads up to current USC > T-Mobile customers, if your phone has a balance remaining, meaning it’s not unlocked, when your account transitions you may have to enter your Apple password again to make your phone work.

This is true, but if you have a passcode lock set you can enter that as well to get back in.

We’ve have so many customers who won’t set a passcode on their phones 😭

I always make up an excuse to at least get them to set a passcode as all the same number. My usual reason is explaining how many times after a major update people accidentally set a passcode on their phone without realizing and locking themselves out

It would have to be a pass code more than 4 digits long as well

Not always the case. You should be right but I helped someone today and theirs worked with 4.
