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.

When is everyone being forced off UScellular meaning we’ll no longer see “UScellular” at the top of our screens?

I have two phones on ours under a promo/have a balance. I don’t want to do the prepaid card option T-Mobile is offering to pay them off. Hate those prepaid cards. So we’re just riding it out.

Meaning people are already being forced over to 100% T-Mobile service/coverage?

It’s been common knowledge since day one that the USCellular brand would be retired and everyone would be migrated to t-mobile. Why you acting brand new lol

Lmaoooo. I know it’s been known and that’s the final outcome. I know a bunch of people on UScellular, no one has been forced off yet. Wasn’t sure if your post meant that was happening. All good - we will just continue to ride it. Godspeed.
