Re: [Instruction] How to Keep Unlimited Data on Verizon Quick advice please. Haven't done this in a while: Line1: galaxy s5 (no upgrade) udp Line 2:moto x (no upgrade) udp line 3: iphone 6 (2gb data) line 4: iphone 6 (2 gb data) adding grandpa to our family plan for a 5th line. He just...

Apple Store only place with available iphone 6 right now in my town and need to transfer an upgrade. Transferring upgrade from a smartphone with UDP to a talk-text line which will become a 2 GB/mo data phone.

Figured that. since i posted I got two pieces of advice (one from costco, finally, and one from samsung). costco said to call verizon tech support for troubleshooting and if problems cannot be resolved, they will replace. samsung said to bring to local bestbuy for same, although her language...

Of course I'm trying to troubleshoot a problem on the day of the iphone 6 preorder opening day and i can't get into costco's website or on the phone either. Briefly, got wife s5 on mother's day. She's had nothing but frustration with it. First it was the newness (coming over from the iphone)...

Re: [Instruction]How to Keep Unlimited Data on Verizon Was able to do process without any major hitches. Only thing I had to contact verizon about was that when I put my son's dumb phone back on the plan I could not choose no data but could only choose the $10 75MB plan. Quick chat with VZW...

Re: [Instruction]How to Keep Unlimited Data on Verizon Well to answer my own question, Costco does not have any secondary ETF, just the $350 verizon one that would kick in after 14 post activation. So I went ahead and purchased the Moto X tonight (under the guise that it was a gift and upgrade...

Re: [Instruction]How to Keep Unlimited Data on Verizon anyone buy from costco recently to confirm that there is no secondary ETF for dropping line or downgrading data? AFAIK, costco, best buy, and VZW are the only retailers where one can do these steps to keep unlimited data. But since we've...

Re: [Instruction]How to Keep Unlimited Data on Verizon Sorry for slight thread diversion, but I still find it incredible that there is a market to buy even new iphones for $700. I know it's absolutely true, but who buys these things for that price?

Re: [Instruction]How to Keep Unlimited Data on Verizon that makes sense. that won't deactivate the SIM in by thunderbolt, right ?

Re: [Instruction]How to Keep Unlimited Data on Verizon I know this sounds stupid, but how should I actually ask for it? "Hi, I'm a customer and would like to have a SIM card mailed to me [in case I lose one someday][I bought a phone off ebay without one][I'd like to know what one looks like...

Re: [Instruction]How to Keep Unlimited Data on Verizon Can one get a new SIM ahead of the process in case it is needed? Will be going from an HTC Thunderbolt (big SIM) to a Note 3 (small SIM), so obviously it will not fit into the note3. I don't want to leave my son without his dumbphone for...

Re: [Instruction]How to Keep Unlimited Data on Verizon :) Thank you for your effort in detailing your process, but I fear it might add to further confusion. For example, why are you activating or switching on your old smartphone? (step #4) First, it already is activated and #2 I don't...

Re: [Instruction]How to Keep Unlimited Data on Verizon Are there any 3rd party resellers where one can accomplish this transfer to keep unlimited data? (e.g., costco) I believe i read earlier that one could run into a nasty ETF fee doing this with sam's club, wirefly, walmart etc... I'm...

Re: [Instruction]How to Keep Unlimited Data on Verizon as of when? today? also (and here's a stupid question): everyone talks about transferring their upgrade from their unlimited line to their dumb phone line. i assume there is nothing magic about this transfer; I assume if one already...

Re: [Instruction]How to Keep Unlimited Data on Verizon So from what you're saying, it's likely that the SIM card that comes with a new phone can "assume the identity" of your old SIM card with a call to Verizon (or through some sort of online support assistance?
