AC Question
This is a bit convoluted, so stay with me.
My wife just broke the screen on her Galaxy S6 Edge. Luckily, she has a SquareTrade warranty and will be getting a replacement shipped out soon.
The phone she broke was an AT&T model that was being used on T-Mobile.
We were traveling abroad and AT&T refused to provide a SIM unlock code because the phone was on contract. So she paid the ETF, got the unlock code, and cancelled her AT&T service as soon as we got home. She ended up switching to T-Mobile's $30 WalMart plan, which she has only been on for 3 weeks now.
So here's the question: what model replacement should she get?
If she gets the T-Mobile variant, will she be able to use it with international SIM cards? Will T-Mobile be willing to provide the SIM unlock code?
If she gets the AT&T variant, will AT&T be willing to provide the code (since she's no longer a customer)?
Looks like the international version doesn't have band 12 (and probably wouldn't be available from SquareTrade anyway). Is that right?
Thanks for any insights or suggestions.
