This Walmart Verizon Galaxy S24 Ultra deal centers on a very low upfront price with immediate unlock potential after full payoff. The phone can be bought with just tax or a small in store payment, and the account setup has been quick when stock is available. Several reports say the device unlocks within about an hour after payoff, with Verizon corporate stores and cash payments helping the process. The main catch is timing, since some stores and the app block payoff until the first bill appears or about 30 days, and cancellation can trigger activation fee and final bill hassles. A strong low cost route if the payoff window lines up.
Common Questions (5)
Sometimes, but not always. Corporate stores have allowed early payoff once the first bill appears, while other attempts were blocked until a later date or 30 days; online payoff is generally limited to after 30 days. Cash or debit has been required for some immediate payoffs.
Yes. The phone can unlock immediately after the device is paid off in full, and several reports show the unlocked status appearing within about an hour or after a few updates/reboots. Paying off before the first bill populates may be blocked in-store, so timing can matter.
The payoff amount shown on accounts is $99 for the S24 Ultra, with some buyers paying only tax and small in-store charges up front. After payoff, the line can be canceled, but the first bill and any prorated charges may still appear later.
Pay off the device first, then cancel the line. Canceling first can leave you with a final bill for the payoff amount, and the safest path reported is to confirm the phone is unlocked before ending service.
Yes. After payoff and cancellation, the phone has been moved to US Mobile successfully, and one setup used a US Mobile QR code on IMEI 2 to activate service. The phone may need a reboot and some updates before the unlocked status and service fully show up.

1. There are many models of S24 ultra but in US two models are imp. S928U is carrier locked version and S928U1 is the unlocked US version. The firmware for these versions are interchangeable so you can flash the VZW model with S928U1 firmware.
2. Download patched odin v3.14.1_3B_PatchedD.zip from https://xdaforums.com/t/patched-o...1.3762572/ as regular odin does not allow flashing mismatched firmware.
3. Download the firmware from S928U1 XAA version from https://samfrew.com/model/SM-S928U1/region/XAA/ (or use this tool https://github.com/SlackingVeteran/frija) Extract as there will be multiple files.
4. Connect S24U to the windows PC.
5 .Put S24u in download/recovery/odin mode. Power down. Press Volume up and down together, then plugin usb cable (from pc). Wait for disclaimer screen and then press Volume up to go into recovery (a green screen would appear).
6. Start odin and then select different files for different categories and then start. 7, It should be now the US unlocked version.

New numbers and new lines. Took about 10 minutes for each phone. In store payment was just the tax $4-plus and $8-ultra.
My V account shows the new lines and phones with the correct $49 & $99 total pay off.
I will cancel the new lines in a few days once the 'pay-off' button appears under the 'manage device' page. Hopefully before 3 days, but if not, still a good price.
On the phones, I can't find anything that says 'network locked', but I do get a message to call Verizon when I insert my AT&T SIM card. I'll make sure this works before I cancel the lines.
Apologies for all the questions, but I got an S24 Ultra last night around 10:50pm, and I just went to the local corporate store at around 4:50pm the next day, and they said I had to wait 30 days to pay off the phone. The woman I spoke to was nice, and didn't ask too many questions outside of when I got the phone, but she went to confer with someone else after allowing herself access to my account through the phone, and he said it wasn't possible until it had been 30 days, like the system wouldn't even allow it. He told the woman helping me that's why this banner was appearing on top of tablet device (not allowing it I guess?), and that I'd have to wait 30 days before I could, even in store. He also made a remark about how it was $99 and he "knows the phone should be more than that." They said I wouldn't be able to do it until March 9th.
Right now I don't have a payment method tied to the Verizon account, and it's been less than 24 hours, so I'm wondering if I tried to go in too quickly or something? I saw a post from someone on reddit a year ago or so saying he was able to pay off his device in before the thirty days by adding a credit card and calling the automated Verizon line and just saying "pay off device," so I might try that when I get home.

I'm also looking to pay off before 30 days. The policy on their website says you can pay it off before 30 days.

I appreciate the info, but I was aware of that on their site. I mentioned it to them when I went in-store, but it didn't seem to matter. The reason I quoted danger07 is they were already successful in paying it off in full, cancelling the line, unlocking the phone and starting service elsewhere, and I'm trying to figure out what they did differently so I can replicate it. I'm also curious how much they paid in total.
Right now the only reasons I can think of for not being able to pay it off are either I going too early (less than 24 hours after getting the phone) or not having a payment method on file. They also could've been lying to me at the store, but it didn't seem that way. I checked my status on the Verizon app and now it's showing money owed and says my bill is being generated and will be ready February 9th, and I don't remember the app showing any of that last night when I first set up the phone and checked. Ideally trying to get this paid off and unlocked before the activation fee hits after 3 days like I saw mentioned earlier in the thread.
