A Little Confused About Verizon Plan for Note 4

[reesh11]

Why would you want to pay the full price for the Note? It will not be worth anything in about 6 months. If you do the Edge program, you will get a line discount which will offset the payment required on the Edge. The line discount will range from 10-25 per line.

The same applies for buying outright. I don't think it's worth nothing I usually get half what I paid for the phone when I sell it again if not more. I'm not tired down to a contract but either way you're gonna pay full retail. The rest of the price of the phone is "included" in the monthly bill which is why I think you get the discount. With edge you don't get to keep the phone so I don't really get the point of that.

Re: A Little Confused About Verizon Plan

its hard to quantify, I am not disputing VZW's quality is good, I simply don't think they are $25/mo better.

As always these things are overall. TMobile doesn't get good service where I need it (home and work). On top of that, Verizon is way way cheaper for my needs. But everyone's situation is different

Well they cant legally take it away as long as you dont sign a new contract. They have tried for a couple years now to make it less desirable, but for 20% of there customers who still have it they obviously will need to come up with a better sales approach.

Actually.. If you're not in contract there is no legal obligation from them to you.. So they could say swap to this or you will have to leave our network. They just aren't going to.. Way to much bad press for the small percent of customers with unlimited. Most with unlimited still don't use a ton so they don't care.

Even if you are on contract, they can force you off unlimited, although they would have to let you leave without paying etf.

Yes your right legaly there is no contract and verizon can refuse service at any time for any reason. But its not just that simple...they are not just avoiding bad press because its a small group. 20% is 1/5 of there customers, thats a large chunk of their business. The FCC would issue a large fine for unfair business practices, and verizon would be faceing several lawsuits for discrimination. To drop unlimited all together would leed verizon to loose most if not all of there unlimited customers to there competitors and pay out millions in fines and settlements. Oh yes and it would look bad.
