I did this last year and the year before.

Pay everything off.

Once you receive confirmation that your trade-in was accepted for the $xxx amount, request the credits be returned to original payment method via chat or phone call.

Wait for unlock period (if you're only trying to unlock and bail).

Close account.
Did you do it online or instore?

I believe I also had this issue with a S24. Ended up fixing it by flashing unlocked firmware AFTER spectrum confirmed it being unlocked.
I don't understand enough about flashing firmware to try this fix.

People need to stop saying this works like last year. If its verified it works this year, then good. But it seems Spectrum has changed their policy and its NOT working this year till someone verifies it. Don't make people spend money they may not get back without verifying it.

You will loose your phone's value if you switch to someone else . A lot of things happen in 36 months . Locking yourself into a plan with a prepaid provider does not make sense .
Not sure why it is posted as "Hot" . It's based on a gamble that you won't switch , spectrum won't jack up your rate etc.

Is this not good for new Spectrum Customers? I see " If you're new to Spectrum MobileĀ® , please note that Internet is required to purchase Mobile.". I do not want Spectrum Internet-only want to get the mobile phone so what should I do?

Always one of these types

There's nothing you're locked in to here especially if you go with the emerging consensus "best" option to do trade in in store requiring no credit after the fact etc

If you are already a Spectrum internet customer, can you still get this deal? If so, do you have to sign like a 2-3 year contract? I know you can unlock the phone after 2 months, but it wouldn't be such a great deal if I had to be stuck paying monthly for the service with them for years that I don't need.

If you don't know the details of a deal, it's generally best to keep quiet. You can pay in full or 36 months.

The commentator saying that you can just leave in 2 month is flat out WRONG. The fine print means you are getting a $700 promotional credit which will be spread out over time. If you leave before the promotioanl credit is paid off, you will pay the difference!

There's always a little bit of YMMV with these deals and experience of actual people is probably the best guide. That's what the past 12 pages have tried to hash out

I think given the way it's worked in the past and how in store trade in works, you should be able to walk out the door with the phone for maybe 80ish out of pocket (if phone you're trading in has trade in value of 799). And that's your best bet

The fine print has changed from last year, and maybe they'll still refund you in full, I've no idea. It remains to be seen. And probably why doing the preorder with the credit involved is a tad too risky for my taste anyway

Also hate mail in process in general for other reasons

Just had a conversation with the agent. May be its not great offer if its spread over months

Me : If i pay for the phone in full, do i get the credit back immediately
Agent :no you get the credit once the company receives the device and assesses it
the credit is spread over months
Me :got it, so its not spread over 36 months. Still i intend to use SPectrum mobile for atleast a year
So if i get $700 more for my iphone 13 as trade in, this 700 is spread over 36 months?
Agent : whatever you qualify for will be spread over time
its not a lump sum credit
Me : how many months?
Agent : 36 months
Me :THanks, i feel that its not a great offer. I'll check with other carriers, thanks again
Please remember to close this chat.
Make sense from business perspective. They want you to stick to them as long as possible. trade in value is super inflated and there is of course a reason to give you 800+ USD credit for used phone. I saw pixel 8-256gb is 836$ credit. No way they will let you go with samsung new phone after 2 months.

they are aggressively offering deals for customers to put them under contract. Not easy to leave them if you take their phone and mobile line.
