Just wanted to verify my timeline for doing this is right.
- Buy Galaxy a14 on Monday.
- Two day shipping, arrives Wednesday. (Business Day #2)
- Pay off phone Wednesday and make a call/text. (Can I pay off phone earlier - before it arrives?)
- Cancel service Thursday (Business Day #3 - last day to avoid activation fee)
- Leave in drawer without service for 60 days, tweak apps, SD card, settings....
- Unlocked automatically
- Use on any USA network (probably US Mobile).

Yes. So definitely not worth for these phones.

Quote from HojinSuh :
I've done this a couple of times but I am no expert. IE $1 X 36 months plus tax on $36 (at least in Illinois) plus a few dollars for pro rated monthly. As long as I cancelled within 3 days of activation, activation fees were waived. So around $40. I did the IPhone 12 at $2.78 month for 36 months. I plane to pay it off for $100.08 plus a few dollars for pro rated monthly. I did all this on Walmart's website without any issues and my phones arrive next week.
Were you able to pay off the phone completely on Walmart's website or did you have to go into the Verizon store.

whoa this brings back bad memories a decade ago of all the verizon giftcard flipping, barely made it out alive with that nonsense

very tempting but not worth the hassle

I still have a stack of useless moto minis, stuck on android 4.4 and bootloader can't be unlocked

I guess younger minds are far more risk tolerant

Is this a frequent offer from Verizon and Walmart? Or is this a big clearance situation?

Just need a massive recession to get the Federal Reserve to turn the money printers back on and bring rates back down to 0% (or even negative).

Do you also pay for the plan along with activation fee?

I saw a lot of questions around whether this require a soft pull or hard pull of your credit check, so thought of going till the order page, to validate for once and all. This is the verbiage that I see, that's indicative of a soft pull that should not probably impact your score ...

I authorize Verizon to obtain my credit report information in connection with this order. I understand that this check will appear on my credit report as a soft inquiry and will not impact my credit score. The information will also be used to verify my identity.

Dumb ?, but when does activation start? When purchased? Or do you have to activate when you make the first call?

I would be getting a phone just for a music player for the gym. Would never make a call. What's the best one for that. SD card is a must. And think I could buy directly from store? Thanks op. And if I can't follow time-line listed? Don't want to get dinged with any fees. Thanks

I agree, higher for longer is still in effect.
