AT&T doesn't play nice, locks the Apple SIM

However AT&amp;T doesn't want to play along and will lock the SIM to only its services. Users have been seeing this disclaimer: &quot;Once activation is complete this Apple SIM can only be used with AT&amp;T. You will need a new Apple SIM if you change carriers in the future&quot;. Well that's not nice!



This leaves the Apple SIM compatible with Sprint, EE in the UK and T-Mobile in the US, which seems the only working right now in the US - Sprint may have some issues currently.

Interestingly if you buy a new cellular Apple iPad Air 2 or mini 3 from Apple or an authorized reseller you'll get an Apple SIM preinstalled but if you buy it from Sprint, for example, it will have a Sprint SIM.

It seems carriers aren't really on board with Apple's one for all plan just yet.
