I'll most likely be going into the store to do this, so is there anyway I can asking them to waive the activation fee?
(Do they offer free activation during the holiday season?)
Should I say look, I'm spending just about $600 with you all and your not going to waive a activation fee? I'll take my business someplace else.
Also, is it better to go to an actual AT&T store, or is a authorized store ok (not Wal-Mart, an ACTUAL store just for AT&T wireless service)?
Thanks for any responses in advance.
Your going to pay an activation fee more then likely. I always recommend going an Apple or an ATT store as they are the most knowledgeable about the product. As for your argument about taking your business some place else, well until the iPhone is on another carrier that is not going to be a very valid argument. Now if you ask nicely I think that they may be able to help you out. They waived it for me when I bought 2 3GS's about a year ago and that was at an ATT store.
