So this whole "anytime upgrade" is fake when doing it in store? Seems like its all marketing hype if that is the case.

No, you can still upgrade anytime you want, you just can't do it in the store.

It just transfers to the new one when you start it up and activate it.

Can you purchase s25 online, send trade in device, get confirmation of amount, and trade that s25 for ultra / plus without waiting for the credits to be credited ?

Yes, that's basically what everybody is doing.

Can I trade the Moto G Play to the S25 online? Will they refund back to credit card instead of monthly payment? Please help confirm. The thread is so long. Thank you.

All you had to do was read a little bit to get your answers...

I mailed to Assurant as soon as I received the trade in email. I received S25 today, and UPS says Assurant received the trade today. Assurant status page still says awaiting shipment. Now the wait for Assurant to assess and send me the email for the credit.

How does Ups trade in work? I was concerned they just threw it in a bag like an Amazon return. I used Usps since that's what I used last year with no issues. This year, device was to be delivered today (took a week!) but it left the local Regional facility in the morning and never updated on the tracking with usps. And of course this was an S25 I was trading in for an upgrade that is now lost in the abyss.... The Assurant portal stinks this year with the no updates. Last year it actually did update when shipped, when they received it, etc.

I tried reading through Spectrum's website, but couldn't find the answer. Do you know: If someone is on the "by the gig plan" are they limited to the amount of upgrades they can do through mail in? If not, it would seem like the "anytime upgrade" plan does not really have a benefit (besides the other perks).

I di not believe there are any limits on upgrading, no matter what plan you are on, but I could be wrong.

The upgrade anytime thing is just a perk of Spectrum.

Its pretty seemless. You take the barcode and the phone to them and they wrap and pack it in a box. That box seemed like it was made to hold phones. overall happy with the UPS drop off part, have to see how promptly assurant process the trade in

I gave two phones and barcodes to UPS on 2/13, delivered on 2/17, and got emails from Assurant on successful trade in for both phones today, 2/19. Seems to be much faster than USPS. Although their trade in website still shows "awaiting package".

Just your phone goes in the box? It's not some massive phone locker? That was my concern that a bunch of phones get bundled together and they don't get shipped until the thing is full

Well darn, wish I had gone that route. I dropped off at Usps on the 11th and it's lost in limbo in Texas.
