Existing line. No new lines. I don't play those games.

I upgraded 2 lines with trade-in devices. Got the $830 trade-in credit and will get the $100 gift card for each line. The $250 gift card is for only new line's on new unlimited plans from what I recall.
What about the 200 gift card. What is that for? Switching?

Did anybody's payment for remaining balance get declined? Went in 9/25 for the upgrade and just received notification this morning that payment was declined. Tried to pay with multiple credit cards and it all declined.
This happened to me too.
I first called the number when the email saying declined came through after multiple reattempts to enter different cards. The rep on the phone said I would have to go to the store I made the purchase.
So I reached out to my Costco kiosk guy and he looked into it. He said it's been happening with many orders with iPhone 15s. He said I could come back and try again.

So they offer the phones with a 6.1" screen, including the Pro, but don't offer the 15 plus which is cheaper than the Pro and is a larger screen. Tf?

It looks like the Pro Max will only ship from Verizon in mid November!
Does anyone know if the Pro max is more likely to be in stock at the kiosk? And if the pro max qualifies for this deal?

I called costco but they told me the kiosk doesn't have a phone (so I can't speak to them and ask)

Very helpful information. Thanks for sharing. Do you mind sharing more information about the free AirPods offer? Any link? I couldn't find any info about it. Thanks.
As a Fios Customer moving to VZW it showed up in their promos tab "Mobile + Home Airpods 2nd Gen on Us". Offer 404618 with valid dates 9/14 - 10/18. Once my account is set up it should allow me to go in and select 1 set of airpods per line. Will confirm when account is up and running, need phones first.

I am still struggling to understand this deal. Does Verizon give us a free phone plus monthly credit for a trade-in? No one seemed to mention the phone needed to be paid upfront or in 36-month installments.

All 4 iphones 15 qualifies for this promotion. None of the phones are at Costco kiosk. They will be shipped directly from VZ. Pro Max availability is limited and in November. If you want early then choose 512GB version. That one is available in October.

Phone is free after 36 monthly credit. Only thing upfront or in 1st bill is the Tax on the phone itself.

Went twice. Cluster f both times. Today I went and they said I could get the $830 but I have to upgrade my plan even though I have the 5g get more already. Just not worth the headache and did the upgrade online vz and got to keep my plan and get $830 for old iPhone 11.

First time I went they said I could trade in iPhone 6s. Spent 90 min and they couldn't do it and had to revert.

Ah so this is happening for all orders?
Will the phones be shipped to the costco location for pick up or to my home?

We upgraded and kept our do more and play more plans. And the Costco gift card is a plus. It's the same thing as if u are doing it online. Only difference with costco, they are using their system to do it for you. They don't know what they're talking about.

I found their shipping estimates to be very conservative. I had shipping estimates for 2 phones that were 3-4 weeks out from when I ordered but both shipped within 2 days of ordering.

Out of 4 I ordered only pro max was backorder and available date was 10/20. Rest of 3 were available and should have shipped like next day of ordering. It's been 7 days and nothing is shipped. I called the support and they told me it's pending but not sure why.
