I am looking to possibly bring my iphone 6Plus over to straight talk (from verizon), however, how long does the activation take?
My concern is that I am going to start the activation process and be without a working phone for a long period of time while it activates.
A couple of hours, no big deal. A couple of days? Ugh.
