Can I still use an older AT&T phone I have that is GSM? I also have a few new gsm cards. Will they activate the new card or will I have to migrate over to cingular? Any help would be appreciated.

if her phone was activated on a cingular service then unfortunately no ☹️ . The phones from AT&T are not compatible with the cingular gsm service.

ATT is not selling phones but they are selling SIM cards.. If you have an old GSM phone you can use it on your ATT account. You can still activate the ATT SIM cards as well if they have never been activated before.
