I signed up at Best Buy, took 4 trade devices to a corporate store here in NJ
iPhone 4 and 4s

hopefully everything is fine.
On the my verizon app, there is a place where it shows that I will get $1k in credits for all 4 devices spread over 36 months

another thing I noticed, no phone number was assigned to a specific trade.


Just pointing that out since some mentioned that Costco did something similar, that the trade device was not attached to a specific number on the account
Was there a deal at BestBuy where you can buy the phone at full price and get $1000 back instantly after trade in?
They had this deal last year.

It's over 36 months of bill credits.

I believe Tmobile had the iPhone 13 series where they gave you the credit at time of purchase. I did a few of those.

But this time, with verizon, it's definitely a 3 year 'contract'

Does anyone know if we can jump on the Black Friday verizon promo? Basically, if you purchase an iPhone 15 series phone, you get credits for a 9th gen iPad and series 8 watch. You have to pay for the line of course but it seems like it's worth it if we have signed up.

This is ignorance. It's not a contract, there is zero penalty for leaving. Y'all obviously didn't have phone plans in the beginning where they would charge you huge fees for breaking the contract.
There is a penalty in that you will lose the remaining trade-in value on your prior device and they have already taken your prior device.

If I have a single line, and I want to go from TMo to Verizon, trade in my S22 Ultra, is there any reason I shouldn't go for this deal?

Supposedly for 1 line it's around $100 or so with auto pay after taxes per month. All depends how much you're paying with Tmobile at the moment.

Also, I would get an older iPhone like a 4 or 5. In sure you can find them under $40.

Same here in the central coast of California. Wonder if they are really getting rid of all Verizon kiosks.
No it just varies by store whether it's a Verizon or AT&T kiosk. The two Costcos I shop at...one has Verizon and the other has AT&T.

To clarify, the kiosk inside my local Costco was Verizon but was converted to AT&T within the last 2 weeks. Just commenting because I saw a post here or on Reddit claiming Costco was getting rid of Verizon kiosks. Hopefully that's not true and they are just cycling through underperforming kiosks.

Thanks for that clarification. Will keep an eye out for any similar swap-out at my local Costco.

Can confirm. Costco got rid of verizon in my area (Texas). I missed the deal by a couple of days.

How did you connect the accounts? I called up but I have been getting reps who don't know how to do it

Thanks

Quote from pechango :
Explain yourself then because there is no similarity to ADM's or 10 year loans.

I don't plan to switch carriers.
Current phone is 3 years old.
I usually follow a 3 or so year upgrade plan.
New phone is $1199.

I either pay $1199 + tax outright, or I can take advantage of their bill credits and pay $11/mo for 3 years ($396 + original tax), all at 0% interest.

I'll await your logic.
Your logic is flawed because 1. you paid more than $0, 2. it's only a deal if they actually pay you $1199 to take the phone, and 3. only an idiot wouldn't exclusively always use prepaid service from Garbage Mobile, even if Verizon actually offers you value. /s

As somebody who also has been on Verizon for 3+ years and has multiple Iphone 12's (my family members don't require a new phone every 6-12 months), I actually don't mind this deal. My only concern is that I'll lose my previous generation of unlimited plans (Do More, Play More).
