I know the Costco stores are open, but do anyone know if these phone kiosks are open on weekends? Hoping to be able to stop in tomorrow (Sunday) to add a line.
Yes, they are typically there on the weekends

Visited Cherry Hill, NJ, Costco from PA.
Will get 250$ X 4 Costco Shop Cards, 200$ X 4 Switcher Verizon Rebates, and 4, 2nd Gen Airpods (for being a Verizon FIOS customer). The order however says a one-time activation fee of $35X4 will be charged on your next bill. I thought Costco always waived this fee.
How do you get the AirPod offer? Do you have any details? Thanks

Today I went to Costco St Louis and the rep told that today the activation fee would also be waived off in the second or third bill. Anyone heard it?

Here you go… tax and fees estimator from Verizon

https://www.verizon.com/support/t...estimator/
Thank You! If I understand this correctly, there will be about 26% + $4.76 taxes, fees and surcharges. That will be huge on a bill for 5 lines.
Paying $140 to T-Mobile for 5 lines right now and finding it hard to justify to upgrading with T-Mobile to pay $185 if I can't get any additional discount. This looked like a great option but taxes and fees kill it for me :-(..

Taxes and fees seem to be high from this website, you may want to check with someone from your state. GL.

Has anyone had a set up where the guy created new lines and didn't port me in because I won't get the phone until november?

I would have prefered to have the switcher rebates auto added to the order. Now I don't know what to do. Calling verizon is incredibly annoying

If I understand you correctly, moving to Verizon with this deal would increase your monthly payment from 140 to 185 for 5 lines, about 45 more or 9 more per line. Total of $1620 ($45 x 36 months). You are finding it hard to justify?

Let me get this straight. To save that monthly cost, you are giving up
- 5 x $250 Costco card = 1250
- 5 x $200 Verizon gift card = 1000
- 5 x 1000 iPhone 15 pro credits = 5000

You are essentially giving up $7500 to save $1620

How is this even a debate? I don't understand your logic

Sorry, I should have been more clear.
I am currently with T-Mobile and. pay $140 for 5 lines. Since this is a legacy plan, there is no good trade-in deal available for new iPhones unless I upgrade my account to Go 5G Plus that will cost $185 for 5 lines (thus, paying $45 more). Even then, the best deal T-Mobile is offering is $830 trade-in credit over 24 months when trading in iPhone 11 or higher.

With Verizon, my monthly cost for 5 lines will be around $255 after autopay and a student discount on one line. On top of it, I will be able to trade-in older iPhone 6s and 7s I have to get iPhone 15s plus $1250 Costco card and $1000 Verizon gift card. What I wasn't clear on was the taxes and surcharges. The online fees estimator from Verizon is very confusing and I thought these may be as high as 25-26%. Fortunately, that doesn't seem to be the case though. I was able to validate with one friend that these charges are around $6-7 per line. so, now after taking that into account, this Verizon deal is still coming out way ahead of T-Mobile and I am seriously considering the change.

Hope this helps.

the store that you went to had the iPhone 15's that you wanted in stock?

I am highly considering this deal.
Currently with tmobile, pay $165 total per month for 4 lines along with 1 free line ($160 without the free line)
I really only need the 4 lines.

What rate plan did you go with?
I noticed each line would get $10 discount if you have fios, is this the same for you?

thanks!

The iPhone $5000 credit is spread over 3 years.
Ok deal if you stay with Verizon for 3 years and don't wanna update your iPhone until iPhone 19.

5 lines on Verizon is probably closer to $250 after the taxes/fees.

I doubt your stuck, as each wireless carrier will have a new promotion to trade in your 2023 iPhone 15 for a free iPhone 16 in 2024.

Verizon's 2023 promotion to gain new customers by taking any iPhone 3 and up for a new 15pro isn't being match by anyone so far and I doubt will be repeated next year.
