And the OP was specifically asking about an iPhone 5.


What's unclear is if AT&T is including their HSPA+ network as "4G" It is technically 4G according to th ITU and they market it that way.


They do specify that pre-paid data is for feature phones only. Not smartphones of any type. From the same document:

Data Services for Smartphones

To use data services, smartphone users must be on a monthly rate plan and purchase a data feature package. Data Pay Per Use is not available with smartphones on any GoPhone rate plan.



It may be possible, but if they catch you, and they eventually will, they will shut charge you for it and/or shut down the account.

Yes it dose work I have a iphone 5 that is unlocked with a brand new 4g lte sim

From AT&T because my old one got whipped out and I got it free I have been on at&t's go phone plan for almost 2 years and don't have any problems with it I'm on the $50 unlimited every thing plan I have a data package the data package dosent work all the time but I use my samsung 2 smart touch screen phone for the data package because it works fine on it but other than that it works great
