iPhone 5s w/ prepaid softbank sim? 2014/3/31 14:50
I am moving back to Japan to finish my education. Since I will only be there a year or so, I don't want to sign cellphone contract. I have an unlocked iPhone 5s and wanted to know if can be used with prepaid softbank sim. I want mostly for talk and txt, I know data won't work. If this would not work at all is there another company that does sim for Japan? I know some companies offer sim cards for unlimited data, but i don't remember the names. I mostly just use my phone for gps, txt, email, phone, line, and instagram, so a data only some card fills more than half of my needs and would be fine.
Any help is appreciated.

must signed up for at least 5 months..and require a credit card and must be a residence(so one year student visa no problem)
