    [Instruction] How to get a new phone and keep (legacy) Unlimited Data on Verizon

    Re: [Instruction] How to Keep Unlimited Data on Verizon I went ahead and activated it, then did the switch. Every thing cleared out like normal. I should have just done it that way to begin with. I was just tempted by the thought of not having to mess with dumb phone, and the fact that I read...

    Galaxy S5: Voicemail Notification Stuck

    I was having the same problem. Not sure how many of you were in the same boat as me: I recently used the old "swap phone/upgrade" deal. Meaning, I very briefly activated this phone on one of my other lines. So, my first instinct was that the voice mail notifications were from that line. So I...

    Re: [Instruction] How to Keep Unlimited Data on Verizon Sorry, for clarification, I meant put new sim card in and activate on dumb phone line.... then do the switch. I know never to put new sim in UDP line.

    [Instruction] How to get a new phone and keep (legacy) Unlimited Data on Verizon

    Re: [Instruction] How to Keep Unlimited Data on Verizon No, I bought at Best Buy. Didn't think it mattered where I bought it from. (Last time I bought at Costco.) But it was never taken out of the box, new sim card inserted, or activated, intil I put old sim in. Did I mess up? Do you think...

    Re: [Instruction] How to Keep Unlimited Data on Verizon Yes I did. It was 4 days ago. I wouldn't be sweating it, since it hasn't been a week yet, but I saw that data charge...

    [Instruction] How to get a new phone and keep (legacy) Unlimited Data on Verizon

    Re: [Instruction] How to Keep Unlimited Data on Verizon Well it still hasn't dropped off. Plus now the line I took my old sim card from also shows "order pending", and the data package did get added to dumb line. So much for this way being easier, I probably should have just stuck with OP's...

    [Instruction] How to get a new phone and keep (legacy) Unlimited Data on Verizon

    Re: [Instruction] How to Keep Unlimited Data on Verizon Thanks. I'm just a little bit hesitant on that method because of the "pending" status on the dumb line. I scoured through as many of these posts as I can, and I don't see anybody confirming that it automatically drops. Have you seen...

    [Instruction] How to get a new phone and keep (legacy) Unlimited Data on Verizon

    Re: [Instruction] How to Keep Unlimited Data on Verizon Last time I did this, I used the old: Activate on dumb phone line, then reactivate dumb phone back on that line, then activate new smart phone on unlimited plan line. Now I'm reading all the posts that say I should do it a different way...

    VZ Activations back yet?

    Just my imagination, or did this start around the same time that it seemed like everybody crashed the network trying to stream USA-Germany World Cup match Thursday?

    [Instruction] How to get a new phone and keep (legacy) Unlimited Data on Verizon

    Re: [Instruction] How to Keep Unlimited Data on Verizon Do these methods still work? I used this method last time I upgraded to my Samsung Galaxy S3. (Unlimited data plan was due for upgrade. Transferred it to dumb line that wasn't...etc...) Now I'm thinking of upgrading that to a Samsung...

    Re: [Instruction]How to Keep Unlimited Data on Verizon Yeah, me too. Because my billing cycle date is in 18 days. Perhaps I should have planned that better....just in case.

    [Instruction] How to get a new phone and keep (legacy) Unlimited Data on Verizon

    Re: [Instruction]How to Keep Unlimited Data on Verizon Played it safe and did it online. Again, I was following the example/path of my fearless leader (you) and took it in with me. They put sim card in S3, asked me which phone number. (gave them my unlimited data line) Put it in, activated...
