Steps to follow to get the deal:
1. Go to Bestbuy Listing for Motorola Moto G Power 2024 5G 128GB/8GB Blue and choose "We'll help to connect this with carrier".
2. Choose Verizon and then new number (you can also choose to transfer a number but given that you are going to cancel it first thing new number is better).
3. Go through checkout and fill out verizon related info. Note down the account PIN you used as you might need it later during cancellation.
4. You can pick the phone up in the store. After pickup, setup verizon account with the new phone number.
5. Chat with CS to cancel the account. Activation fee is waived if cancelled within 3 days.
6. The phone is factory unlocked, sealed and ready to be used with any provider.
Personally, I don't do these activation deals at Best Buy but people have had better experiences. If you can make it work for yourself, its a great device for $30, especially being unlocked.
Community Reviews
The Moto G Power 2024 comes across as a solid budget Android phone with 8GB of RAM, a decent display, and good everyday speed, and the unlocked hardware is not tied to Verizon. Connectivity and reception are often praised, with Motorola radios standing out, though there are also reports of slow performance and weak cellular service on some units. The rear camera is the main hardware weak spot. The Verizon activation promo can lower the price sharply, but it brings checkout friction, possible credit impact, and cancellation or billing hassles that may require chat support.
Common Questions (5)
The line can be cancelled through Verizon chat, and some buyers were able to disconnect it immediately after pickup or activation. The safest window mentioned is within 3 days of Best Buy processing the order to avoid activation charges, and you may need to dispute any later prorated bill or small fee.
The activation fee is reportedly waived if you cancel within 3 days, but a small prorated charge or later bill can still appear and may need to be disputed. Some buyers saw about $7-$10 in first-day or later charges even after cancelling fast.
Reception can be very good, with some users reporting better connectivity than a Galaxy S25+ and solid performance on Google Fi. Others reported poor connectivity or worse service than an older Moto G Power 2020, so carrier and location matter.
It is a budget phone, not a flagship, but it can handle basic daily use. One owner found the speed, display, and feel good for everyday needs, while another called it very slow.
The phone is unlocked and not tied to Verizon. Verizon is only part of the bundled new-line activation used to trigger the discount, so the device itself is not Verizon-locked.
