That's $1260 for 3 years of service and $170 for the phone.
$25 prepaid plan would be $900 for 3 yrs service and $800 for the same phone with $200 trade credit.
If you do the math, $1430 vs $1700.
*Have to pay taxes either way on the phone so it's silly to count that as a $100 negative toward choosing postpaid.
My $25 Verizon prepaid plan stays at $25 if I use prepaid cards to reload.
So now the difference is $1678 vs $1700, pretty much the same cost-wise but on prepaid data is deprioritized so postpaid gets the nod for better service.
TLDR: these "free" iPhone promos are for poor people and people who can't do basic math. The only person this is a "slick deal" for is the carrier.
The trade-in offers at T-Mobile look similar to Verizon.
Plus there's a $150 Costco gift card per line. And $250 porting (for up to 2 lines.)
The sales person told me he can offer $200 porting credit for up to 4 lines. He can also offer a coupon for 20% off.
Moving 5 lines would be $750 ($150 x 5) and $800 ($200 x 4.) 20% off the Go5G Plus plan that comes with Netflix and Apple TV.
T-Mobile is 24 month financing compare to Verizon's 36 month financing.

I used the Verizon Taxes and surcharges estimator to guess at taxes/fees. https://www.verizon.com/support/t...estimator/
Verizon Unlimited Plus Plan (1 line) = $90 + 27.17 Taxes and fees = 117.17 - 10 autopay credit = $107.17/month
107.17 x 36 months = $3856.12 - $1399 = $2459.12 (Approx. 68.31 monthly bill for 3 years)
Plus upfront tax (8.25%) 2459.12 + 115.42 = 2574.54 - 250 Costco cash card = 2324.54 + 350 (Current street value of my iPhone 11 pro max 256GB)
Total value = 2674.54
Versus
Buying new iPhone 1514.42 (including tax)
Keeping my current Visible plan $35/month (including taxes/fees) x 36 = 1260
Sell current iPhone myself -$350
Total Paid = 1514.42 + 1260 - 350 = 2424.42 or 2774.42 (if I decide to keep my phone)
For me personally, it makes more sense to buy the phone outright and use my current prepaid plan. Not to mention the freedom that comes with not being in a contract. I could see this being a good deal for someone with 4+ lines though.
I think if nothing else this shows that these "free phone" deals aren't really a deal. They just build the cost of the phone into your contract. The people who really get screwed are the ones who stay on a phone plan without any sort of active promotion.
Back when they subsidized the phones, that was a true contract as they could charge you an ETF as well as require you to pay off the full balance of the phone. You signed a document.
24 vs. 36 mos is just a way to reduce the monthly payment. 1 year more, no big deal. I've been with Verizon for 10+ years. I don't switch providers often, not worth it to me. If you do, then yeah, that's on you to figure out how you purchase a $1k device. The 36 mos bill credits to get a $1k+ device for $11/mo 0% interest fits my needs.
I understand 2 years, since they are in the business of making money, but 3 year contracts on any service is just insanity.
Verizon will literally take any phone since iPhone 3G in any condition (except for swollen battery and iCloud locked or stolen phones).
