If I were to cancel the line after receiving $250 GC, then do I need to return the phone or need to pay remaining amount outright?

Wait for blue pro model is 1 month …
If you cancel the plan within 1 year, you need to pay back $250 plus the remaining balance of the phone. If more than 1 year, you don't have to pay back $250.

But you'll still have to pay off the phone if on the payment plan.

Plus should be less then $65 per month for 3 lines , for 4 lines its $45 per month. You get $750 of Costco GC also for 3 lines.
it's $55 per month with auto pay and paperless billing.

I am currently on Verizon with 3 unlimited plans. It is about 150 a month for 3 plans.

here is the math:

150 * 36 months =5400 including 3 new 15 phones.

vs google fi:

90 a month * 36months= 3240
3 phones at 829 = 2487
total at 5727.

So getting the 3 free phones alone makes up the difference.
I didn't even add the Costco gift cards or additional Verizon perks.

It's in the fine print somewhere. It happened to me when I did a switch only a few days before 12 months, they charged me every single gift card I got from them.

I saw a discrepancy in my email receipt. I saw on rep tablet $1000 credit for S23 ultra I got by trading iPhone 12. But on receipt it showing $790 and not $1000.
I got unlimited ultimate plan. My other 3 iPhone 15 are showing the correct credit. I hate to redo the whole transaction again at Costco. And if I call VZW support they will cancel my full transaction and redo the sale again without Costco GC.
Not sure how to get back $1000 credit. Rep shows me $1000 and my monthly bill for $11.27 for that S23 ultra not sure what happened

You can do this deal and stay on your old plan?
I'd also like to know. I'm on the 5G play more plan and am wondering if I can keep it. Has anybody had success getting this deal without having to change their plan?

considering the questions and statements made on 20 pages of this thread alone, that may not be as clear as you'd expect.

Yes, plenty of people have. I know it's 20 pages, but the answer is in there.

We're on the 5G Play More and I upgraded 2 lines without moving to the newer unlimited plans.

Thank you! The Costco with Verizon kiosk is quite a drive away from me so I wanted to double check before I went in. I went in and was able to get the deal with $100 gift card and keep my current plan.
For anyone else wondering, the person at the kiosk told me that the deal ends tomorrow, 10/4/23.
