Community Reviews

This Verizon Pixel 11 Pro deal is mainly about getting a flagship Pixel at a steep upfront discount, with the best value coming from store pickup, activation, and then canceling the line after verifying unlock status. The phone can work with other carriers like Google Fi, Mint, T Mobile, or Xfinity once unlocked, and the account often shows it as paid in full. The main catch is Verizon's confusing unlock behavior, since shipped orders sometimes stay locked for days or 35 days, and the bootloader remains permanently locked. Cancellation can also trigger full month bills or bill adjustments that may need chat support.

I cancelled and had the service disconnected immediately. My Verizon bill is ready now and is showing a full month charge. Anyone experience this / have had success getting the bill adjusted for the 1-2 days of service used?
Yes. That happens most of the time. You need to chat with them again to get the charges adjusted. It might take 5-6 days for the bill to settle down the actual amount owed.

I just chatted with the CS rep online and had the line cancelled. She said she will send me the label to have the phone shipped back What happens if I dont? do I get charged full?
You are just cancelling the line. You should not be talking about the phone. You already paid for the phone and that transaction is done.

Same here, just got the final bill today for $51.13 then chatted with Verizon experts online and they credited the whole amount to zero.

You will only need pay for days of service. I am not sure about extending mint mobile service, it's one of the cheapest so you can continue with them, you should be able to use the new phone after 35 days.

Note Verizon will likely send you a full months bill for which you have to chat with them again to waive the charges.

We weren't able to find any lines on your account that are eligible for disconnect online at this time. Do you want to connect to an agent? Chat with agent or speak with agent. Is this the normal response. What has everyone been telling them. Too expensive or just doesn't work?

Mine was unlocked when I picked up in-store. Waited a day for anything to sync, and got my line cancelled and I moved out of my motor razr and into my 512gb pixel on Google Fi

No issues!

As for the bill. Contacted chat again, and got that bill removed since I only used the service for 2 days.

Well pixel 11 pro is locked for 35 days. My 7a with mint expires on the 20th of this month. I was going to swich to Specturm anyway as they are offering me a free year of service since the took over cox. I guess I can port my mint number over too the specturm still keep using the 7a and than move that number over to the 11 pro after 35 days.. Is that how I would do this

You should put an effort to unlock the phone. People have escaped through chat agent and got it unlocked the next day. After you get it unlocked or have to wait for 35 days you can cancel the line right away. You can mention you have bad service at home/work etc.

I did not say anything about the phone. I just said the I want the line cancelled. She cancelled the line. In the end she said "I'll send you the phone return label. At this point the line is cancelled and I have the fully paid phone. Wondering what if anything happens if I ignore the return label?

Thanks waiting 35 days isn't an issues as I have another phone. I just don't want to be screwed over at 35 days and it's still locked.or pay any more than I have too

No, it should unlock by itself even if you cancel the account. What does Verizon account say, the device is fully paid off etc?

They should not be even talking about the phone so I am not sure what conversation resulted them to send the return level? You do have to make sure there no return pending from your side so maybe talk to another agent and clarify you have only cancelled the line not returning the phone.

I'm so sorry everybody. I was looking at a different setting. My phone is unlocked. I was looking at develop options wrong. If I go to add Sim. My mint mobile does show up. Now it's just a matter of canceling the line. Has anybody had any trouble canceling the line.
