Hello,
Verizon is not allowing me to upgrade my phone without loosing my unlimited data. I don't want to pay the full retail price in order to keep my unlimited data. I heard there is a loophole (best buy only?) where you can add a dumbphone line and upgrade that with your new smartphone and then switch it back to the unlimited line. I am a bit confused about how this works and I was hoping I could explain my exact situation and have someone guide me on how to do this. I tried to follow along with what I read on a similar thread, but I don't know if that would apply to my exact situation.
I have a nationwide talk, text,and share 2000 plan with 4 phones.
- Two are smartphones with unlimited data that are both due for upgrades.
-the other 2 are basic phones. One has an upgrade and the other will have it at the end of August.
I want to upgrade my Droid Razr to the Galaxy S4 and keep the unlimited data. So if I were to do that, would I try and upgrade on one of the basic phone lines? and then switch it to my unlimited line after?
If someone could explain the process very simply I would be very grateful. I really don't want to lose my unlimited data and i feel like Verizon is cheating it's customers.
Thank you very much!
