PSA: Be careful if you're scheduled to pickup on Friday. The activation timer may starts on Friday but the CS aren't availble on weekends, which means you only have whatever hours left on Friday to attempt cancelling the line.

Nothing to add about this deal, but I got this phone a couple months ago and I have to say it's the best phone I've ever used. My wife got a Iphone 16 pro max and the camera on the Pixel 9 pro XL puts it to shame - especially when zoomed in. And the battery is usually around 40% when I go to bed at night after heavy use all day.

So if you're on the fence about this phone, don't be - you'll love it!

Has anyone got experience porting out Verizon instead of cancelling the line? If you port out within 3 days, is the activation still waived or you'll be charged the full month?
The line would be marked cancelled and no activation fee needed but as I pointed to the one plus thread in most cases they will send you a bill later on with the charges for which you will have to charge and get them waived.

I have been doing similar deals with Walmart. When I ported out, the $35 activation is still there and also charge for 1 to 3 days of service. When I call in to cancel, I only pay 1 to 3 days of service. I have 5 lines with them.

Every time I've seen a BB Pixel deal pop up, I immediately check my Fi app/Google store to see if there are any promos. Never have I seen the price match. Today, this deal finally made me bite the bullet.
$199 after my $5 BB account reward and trade-in on my 6a. I did the 256g model. I know launch was technically a better deal but I honestly just wanted the 8 Pro. I'm at the point where I just can't wait any more.

Thanks, OP!
how to do this can you help please

Is there any reason people are trying to port? Can someone get a new line and this deal works the same way?

Quote from WolfTheCat :
Bought one and picked it up today (Sunday 256GB model)

Notes:
- It is new in box. Picked up at Best Buy - Washington Square location in Indianapolis.
- An AT&T SD Card is taped to the box. I'm assuming the card is activated, but I'm not opening the box until I have a case, if I can avoid doing so (looking at cases on Amazon).
- They did not port my number automatically, as evidenced by the fact the number I gave them is still working in my old phone, and my provider (Spectrum) didn't send any port notices.
- Registered with AT&T, but I can't figure out how to cancel online and chat/phone is closed 'til Monday. If anyone knows the best way to cancel, let me know. The 3-day clock is probably ticking.
256 gb how much to pay?

gadgetNerd, Can we chat with VZ CS like AT&T and ask them to cancel the new line within 3 days? This is my first VZ deal. Thanks for posting this deal. Repped.

Yup, the process should be the same. I can't vouch for it personally as I do these with ATT but many here have done essentially the same thing.

FYI, the Google store $200 off for pixel 9 pro/xl runs through 03/29 so I expect this deal to be there till then unless BB runs out of stock or decides on less carrier discount etc.
