If it is one att at the moment it is NOT unlocked. You will have to unlock it yourself and that does not require calling tmobile. They will do nothing for you.

While I am not 100% sure on this, my guess is you will have to unlock it yourself. How? No clue, never used a BB so I never have bothered to look that up. Sorry I can't help you out more.

wait no lol... i already unlocked my BB curve so she can use it with ATT(i had to call tmobile and within 24 hours they gave me an unlock code)... my question is... does she need to call ATT the carrier to unlock the iphone with a 10 digit code the same way i did.

or can i, when i get the phone, unlock it with all the programs to jailbreak and unlock that are on this forum

Sorry for the confusion here, I have no idea... I've never had to do that with any phone I have owned.
