Deal Details
Looking at the new Pixels on my Verizon account I realized that the 9 Pro XL has a special offer for the upgrade eligible lines on my unlimited family plan. The terms are no trade-in and any unlimited plan which means that it's loads better than the upgrade deals on the 9 or 9 pro. This deal did not appear when I went to the offers area but showed once I went onto the 9 pro XL page after choosing upgrade on one of my lines. They are also offering to double your storage for free but apparently only for the black color. End of the day I ordered two for the price of tax and the upgrade fee. Obviously you have to keep the DPP for 36 months to get all of the credits.

Only the 512GB in black is available, does this mean they will upgrade it to 1TB?

edit: Just poking around and it looks like you can get the Pixel 9 Pro Fold for free with a trade-in. In my case I would be trading in a S22 Ultra 128GB and change my plan from an older one.

The page says 512 for the price of 256 and 256 for the price of 128. They don't have the 1TB listed right now.

My mistake, hopefully I didn't mislead anyone but Verizon hid the cost on the app. I would be paying almost $50 a month extra for the Fold, with trade in and required plan change.

I actually got text from Verizon showing me this deal. It's a free upgrade for my s21. No trade in at all. Just gotta pay taxes and an upgrade fee of $35. I was waiting for the s25 ultra but since this is free and I don't even have to trade in my s21 I'm gonna take this offer

I was going to wait for the S25 as well but I don't think that a Samsung deal will get even close to this.

My eligible lines were the unlimited welcome and the 5g play more, but I'm assuming other plans qualify as well. Just log in and go through the upgrade path for an upgrade eligible line and check.

Verizon typically only gives promotions to lines on the latest plans. It's annoying but often times changing to the new ones doesn't cost you anything.

I can confirm that this does indeed work. In fact I didn't even have the offer on my account but on my wife's account which is tacked on to mine. I tried it anyway and it still worked even though we're not in the latest unlimited plan but one of the old ones that they are trying to knock us off of. I noticed that if I changed the memory to 512 GB it allowed me to get that one for the cost of tax Plus a $35 activation fee (instead of 1399 plus tax). The only drawback I can see that gives me pause is that it's in the form of credits over 36 months so if you break the contract they charge you whatever is left. I haven't seen a deal like this with Verizon in years and I've been with them for many years usually there's a new line required or you have to trade something in. not bad if you want this phone and plan on sticking with Verizon for at least 36 months anyway.

Picked up one on a Unlimited Go More plan. Interestingly, the 512gb model was listed at $3.33/mo after their credit initially, but that didn't show up on checkout. Black model only has the 512GB model; white had 256&512 when I looked.

Definitely worth checking out if you see yourself sticking with Verizon for the next 3 years. Getting another one for family tomorrow on our other line which is the Do More plan.

This is as close to free as you get--$35 + ~$130 in sales tax for a $1300+ phone is an easy flip or a very very cheap flagship if you're in the market.
