We have purchased 2 Iphones from ATT. Basically let them run the credit check on you personally, and they will sell you the phones, for which you will have to agree to a contract. But ATT does not activate the phones.
Now, B4 activating, jalibreak, OKtoPrep, etc. insert your business sime card and activate the phone. I do not believe that the personal account will ever bill as it was never actually activated. If it does, so what, you can pay the $175.00 fee to close the account, and you do not have to return the Iphone.
Important, make sure that your business account has media package, or th $20.00 package on it B4 you start, and also that ATT has updated your sim to 3G type.
As I stated, we have 2 working, you loose virtual voicemail feature, but still have normal v/m.
Give it a try....worked for us.
