Your ETF does NOT start to reduce until after 8 months of service so normally its $5-10 per month (hotspot vs smartphone) so you would normally be $80 down, no so fast smartypants.
Plus AT&T does no such thing when it comes to paying off your Next Plan. Pay it off in full you can get another phone immediately, and I do mean immediately.
I know all carriers are out to make money, but I always felt like Verizon was out to make money AND screw their customers - simply because they have the best network. I switched to AT&T over a year ago. Haven't had any issues at all. I'm paying less per month and I feel like I have just as good of service. Plus, like you said, you can get a new phone as soon as you pay off the old one. And you can bring any phone and save money on your bill (we brought our own phones and pay $15 line access fees). You can only save money like that on Verizon if you have a phone on Edge. Now we also have some rollover on data. It isn't perfect. But some is better than none.
Again, really feel like AT&T doesn't try to screw their customers over nearly as much.
