Does anyone have the costco Verizon phone number?

Before the page went down, there was a section with a phone number that said you can call and get the shop cards.

Does anyone know the cost per line for 4 lines on unlimited plus with no perks selected? Costco rep said $40 a line but Verizon chat and website say $45 once we complete auto pay and paperless billing of course for the $10 per line discount.

This is on the trade in any iphone deal for the $830 credit over years.

I checked with Costco Verizon rep, they stated the trade in needs to be iphone 12 or later. To get $1000 trade in, it needs to be Unlimited Ultimate plan. $830 for Unlimited Plus. When I talked directly to Verizon rep (not Costco rep), you can trade in any phone model, you get $1000 even on Unlimited Plus. Difference reps giving difference answers.
New lines you can trade in iPhone 3+ but for upgrades you need newers phones , that's what people are reporting and I've heard from Verizon

Not talking about that, there was a phone in the website in case you didn't had a Verizon kiosk in a costco near you were you can call and get the costco perks when opening new lines.

Did this deal at Costco Redwood city yesterday. The booth was unmanned when I arrived at 130 and no one showed up until 2:45pm. Deal is still available and a bunch of posters are advertising it in the costco.

Verizon agent first checked if my pixel 4 and pixel 5 purchased from eBay for trade-in would qualify for a high trade in value without upgrading my plan (5g start), but no luck. They were only worth $200 for those plans. I think folks who have been able to get high trade in values without upgrading plans likely had a higher plan than 5g start.

Then tried again while upgrading to MyPlan Plus. This time I got the full $830 for pixel 4 and pixel 5. Got two Pro Max's. White was out of stock but all colors available. My expected ship times are 10/20 and 10/27.

The agent took down the IMEI from each phone and entered it into the system to verify the $830 credit.

She also printed out a receipt that showed the $100 costco GC (comes via email $90 days later), as well as the $830 credit (shown as $23.06/month statement credit for 36 months). So I had a clear paper trail for the promo trade in value.

Overall I think this is an decent deal if you don't need the latest/greatest phone. I plan to look into the buyout promos from tmobile in 2 years where they pay down the remaining balance on your phone when you switch, if they are still available!

Land of confusion.
Whenever they tell you, it has to be this for that always ask for the protocol in writing.
All these deals are for the benefit of the carriers not consumers.

Yes. We are trading in a 4, 5, and non-working 6. Won't take phones with swollen batteries though. Decided to go for the lower credit amount ($830) for the reduced plan ($45/mo) as well. Hope it all goes as it should...

This plan expired yesterday.

It's even BETTER for NEW lines. Same deal but extra $200 Vz gift card on TOP of Costco Shop Card and $830 trade in; not sure if $1,000 trade in is still eligible. I missed out on $600!!

Existing Vz customers now need to trade in an iPhone 11 or higher.
