Walmart Offering iPhone 5 on Straight Talk this Week

[Thomasjtsi]

​

For those of you who've been waiting, Walmart has announced that Straight Talk will be officially supporting the iPhone 5 beginning this week. Same deal as always too.... $45/mo for Unlimited Talk, Text & Data. Don't already have an iPhone 5 that will work on Straight talk? No problem... Straight Talk & Walmart will offering no interest fixed-monthly payments for only $25 a month with a Walmart Credit Card. As well, I'm certain credit approval will be required for aquisition of the WM Credit Card. With the $25/mo payment for your new iPhone 5, that rounds out to $70/mo before taxes and fees. Not too bad for Unlimited Talk, Text & Web... and No Contract!

Straight Talk is owned by TracFone Wireless and utilizes T-Mobile, Verizon Wireless & AT&T's cellular networks. From a brief bit of research I'm not seeing any support for ST in Canada.

Pretty much anywhere you go in the Continental US... ST will use AT&T's 3G service. So, it'll depend on how well AT&T works in your area.

Correct... they're officially offering the nano SIMs and the $25/mo no interest financing for the iPhone 5.
