YMMV — Targeted Verizon loyalty/retention offer. Not guaranteed to appear on every account.
Wanted to share a pretty crazy upgrade deal I received from Verizon on two of my three lines.
About two weeks ago, I generated a Number Transfer PIN because I was considering switching carriers. Roughly two weeks later, I checked my Verizon upgrade offers and found this promotion on two lines.
Both lines had existing iPhone 15 Pro Max devices with outstanding installment balances.
Here's the deal I received PER LINE:
- iPhone 18 Pro Max 256GB: $1,299.99 retail
- Promotional device credits: $929.88 over 36 months ($25.83/month)
- Net device payment: ~$10.28/month for 36 months
- Additional trade-in credit: $295 applied to my Verizon bill
- Existing device balance forgiven: $305.50
- $40 upgrade fee waived
- Plan: Unlimited Plus — no upgrade to Unlimited Ultimate required
Effective cost per phone:
$1,299.99 retail
− $929.88 promotional credits
− $295 trade-in bill credit
= $75.11 before taxes over 36 months
California taxes and fees were $135.25 per phone, bringing the effective total to approximately $210 per phone including taxes.
I received the exact same offer on TWO lines.
Additional details:
- The $295 trade-in credits are applied to my Verizon bill, so they effectively cover several months of service.
- Verizon waived the remaining $305.50 device balance on each old iPhone 15 Pro Max.
- The $929.88 promotional credits are spread over 36 months and require maintaining eligible service.
- The old phones must be traded in to receive the $295 credits.
- My third line (a Google Pixel) did NOT receive a comparable offer.
- I was not required to upgrade from Unlimited Plus to Unlimited Ultimate.
How to check:
1. Log into My Verizon.
2. Check the upgrade offers for each line individually.
3. Look under personalized or loyalty offers.
4. Check whether Verizon offers to forgive your existing device balance.
5. Compare the Unlimited Plus and Unlimited Ultimate upgrade options carefully.
I can't confirm that generating the Number Transfer PIN caused this offer, but the timing was interesting. The offers appeared approximately two weeks afterward.
IMPORTANT: YMMV. This appears to be a targeted account/line-specific offer, not a publicly available promotion. Your device credits, trade-in value, balance forgiveness, plan requirements, and eligibility may differ.
Also, the ~$75 effective cost assumes you receive all 36 monthly promotional credits and that the $295 trade-in bill credit is separate from those credits.
Curious if anyone else has received similar Verizon loyalty offers recently, especially after generating a Number Transfer PIN.
