Virgin Mobile Black Friday

Quote from JuryDuty : Well, maybe I already have the best phone in the list with the Optimus V then. I love the phone except for the internal storage. It's so limited that just updating the main phone's apps makes me run out of internal space--which means I can't run other programs that are required to be on internal memory.

I'm looking for a replacement for the Optimus as well that will allow me to stay on the $25 plan. Hoping there's something avail on BF.

Regarding the internal storage, check this page (if you've got it rooted):

Virgin Mobile just lowered their price on iphones $449.99 for 4s and $349.99 for the 4
guess this is the norm since radio shack and bestbuy did too. Now lets hope for a Black Friday or Cyber Monday SALE !

i found this on the web, I don't know if it is real or not

Which cybermonday was she talking about ? 26th Nov ?

Quote from daftande : I specifically asked about that actually: Since the Optimus Elite wasn't released until May 15th it makes your plan $35. There was a SMALL loophole where if you got target to sell you the Elite early you could activate it on the $25 plan but that was closed in May too, Sorry! I want it too!!

There were a ton of people that were able to stick with the $25 plan with that phone when Radio Shack had a deal about a month ago. It's somewhere in the Hot Deal forum

Quote from gbrando2 : I got my Triumph for 50% off, plus an additional 20% off last Cyber Monday. If I could get a similar deal for a Galaxy S2 this year, I'd go for it. Any info?

Last year I made some good profit on one of those phones. No one really expected the sale last year.

Interesting! The only thing holding me back on the elite now is no physical keyboard, I know its got lower specs but I really wanna try the PCD Venture.

Yeah , I mentioned this a page back. and it wasnt a short loop hole. My son got the Elite in June and never had VM service before , but got the $25 Grandfather plan. It went on for over 4 months with the last person saying he got it in Mid Oct. I guess though its up to the individual to "try" it. Not a bad phone , but battery life sucks.

On another note , since VM and everyone else ( radio shack , bestbuy & Target ) have dropped the Iphone prices , I wonder if Target's black friday will ring up $449 instead of $499 and you get the $100 gift card too making it the best deal for a 4s ( $100 cheaper for the Iphone4 )

Small FYI they just dropped the price on the PCD Venture to $19.99, fully allowed on the $25 plan.
Just saved me a trip to office max/getting up at 3am fri.

Quote from daftande : I contacted VM support and they stated only these phones are allowed to keep the $25 plan: (of course all of the PayLo phones are allowed since they are lame) 1. Motorola Triumph. 2. LG Rumor Touch. 3. LG Optimus V. (incl slider) 4. LG Rumor 2. + Touch 5. Venture. 6. Samsung Intercept. 7. HTC Wildfire S 8. Blackberry Curve

thanks for the list, i knew that id lose my grandfathered plan if i switched , but didnt know i had options that wouldnt change it ill be looking into perhaps buying a phone now, for when the one i have breaks down the road ....

I have to buy a new phone my slider does not turn off anymore. i can hit "power off" 1,000,000 times and it will just restart.

I'm gonna try to get another slider so i dont have to lose the $25 plan that i converted to in october.

these are all this price currently

Quote from Austang : Definitely don't go for the Triumph. Nothing but problems.

I agree about the Triumph. I regret that purchase more than any other purchase I've ever made in my life. It's a horrible phone only made bearable by significant modding.

I want the Samsung Reverb, for 100 bucks it's absolutely worth it, just too bad my car decided to die and I need another one, so I guess it's 30 dollar target kyocera rise for me.
