S20+ is $300 off + $150 prepaid card + up to $550 trade in at Verizon. S20 is $150 off +150 prepaid card + up to $550 trade in.
Maybe it's targeted? For the S20 I'm seeing the same $150 bill credit, up to $250 for trade in. No TV's or Dot or anything else. Not even close to the Costco deal.

It makes me a little angry to think that at close to 15 years and 5 lines they are targeting other people with better deals. Maybe I will try calling them tomorrow. Verizon customer service has been abysmal the last 3 or 4 years.

Buyer Beware, I bought 3 phones from a Costco kiosk and 8 months later I still can't get them to honor the bill credits I have them recorded as saying they'll honor. Nearly $2k of credits spread over 30 months, and they can't figure their lives out. I would definitely suggest others go elsewhere!

I agree. They are hoping you are satisfied enough to stay with the service without providing similar benefits to new customers. Am waiting to see if T-mobile coverage improves, after the network merger with Sprint, and I will take a shot with them...

"new and upgrade lines"... I hate these deals. I am already with Verizon, I don't need a new number. Its like they want me to leave for a few months, only to come back to get a phone deal.

You do not have to upgrade to 5g with a 5g phone. You can use the 5g phone on 4g just like any other phone. But in order to take advantage of 5g speeds you need to have 5g service on your plan and the usually cost around $5 per month. However, with this special Verizon only S20 "UW" phone Verizon says they will waive the $5 fee. The downfall with this phone is they removed the SDcard slot and it is only 64G memory. The S20+ has 128Gb memory and an SDCard slot for just a little more cost. However, the S20+ would require paying the $5 per month 5g cost to Verizon if you want 5g. Also 5g is not even available at most places.
Where can I get more info on the 5g waived fee? my wife just got this phone the other day.

Thanks

Thanks! 64GB and no SD card kills it for me.

No but usually Verizon will waive it if you call and be nice to them.

This S20 only has 64Gb memory and no SDcard slots. All the other S20 models have SDcard slots. If you plan on using 5g now this is a good deal as Verizon normally charges extra for 5g and this plan has it included. But I download Netflix movies for off-line and need the extra memory so this phone doesn't work for me.
Just had a long talk with the wireless rep in my Boston are Costco. All the S20 models offered at Costco are 128GB storage. Where did you see that these are 64GB storage?

And confirmed on many many reviews on Verizon website specific to the 5G UW version that expandable storage isn't offered (SIM card tray only accepts the sim card, it's not dual purposes anymore to allow a SC card as well). Also confirmed the RAM was reduced from 12 to 8 from the standard unlocked version

It's like impossible these days to get the upgrade fees waived. It used to work but the past year I had tried many many times with no success...
