does AT&T require a 2 year agreement when starting new service with a returned iPhone?

[alm99]

If I get an iPhone from a third party does AT&T require a 2 year contract?

I don't know the correct answer to this, but I'm going to say no. However, they will probably require, at the very least, a 1-year contract. When I sold cell phones, the carriers generally needed some kind of contract even if you brought your own phone.

My best advice would be to just call up an AT&T store and ask. Just ask 'I have my own AT&T phone, if I activate a new line of service, do I have to sign a contract?'

If yes, I would probably just shell out for a new iPhone and sell the old one on ebay or something.
