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

    Re: Verizon: How to keep Unlimited Data and get phone on subsidized price How would I use my upgrade? They specifically told me that if I used my upgrade that I automatically lose my grandfathered plan. I'm on an individual plan if that means anything to you.

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

    Re: Verizon: How to keep Unlimited Data and get phone on subsidized price Thanks for the help. Looks like all is well. To sum it up, I ended up with a new HTC M8 for $99 and did not have to use an upgrade due to a BB screw up. So far I still have my UDP and I'm off contract. :D

    Re: Verizon: How to keep Unlimited Data and get phone on subsidized price This comment makes perfect sense to me. Coming from a rooted/ROM'd, completely custom modded GNEX, I was actually looking forward to having a hacked SIM in this new phone. :)

    Re: Verizon: How to keep Unlimited Data and get phone on subsidized price No this was an upgrade by "keep my existing plan" method.

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

    Re: Verizon: How to keep Unlimited Data and get phone on subsidized price Ok, I have been reading this thread a lot and decided to give it a try by ordering the M8 from BB. I failed miserably. I got the "There's a problem with your order" email but I hadn't read about it. So I just called...
