yea, it couldn't hurt, and it would save you some gas.
if you don't have any luck at all, i can ask my friend who is a manager what you can do or if he can help you out. but it would have to get shipped to you then, as i'm in southern cali.
Wow, I feel really silly. Sorry to waste your time. It dawned on me that I misinterpreted my NE2 date with my contract date.
My contract doesn't end until 4/08/11, no wonder the reps were being so stiff. XD
Oh well, I guess I'll have to wait for the Incredible 2.
(That, or add a second line.)
EDIT:
Just read this on the VZW website:
"You can get a new phone every year with Annual Upgrade. Sign up for a 2-year agreement on a calling plan of at least $49.99 and you can purchase a new phone at its promotional price through My Verizon every year with a 2-year renewal (upgrade fee may apply)."
Does this mean anything for me?
So basically we'll have to pay around 300 up front (with a 2yr contract), then get back 100? Rebates take forever![]()
yea, adding features to your plan doesn't make a new contract.
as for vzw mandating the lowest price, you can buy a moto droid for $20 on amazon if you sign a new contract, which is quite a bit lower than what it would run doing the same thing at the vzw store.
my pricing bet is still going to be 199 after $100 rebate (new contract)
and we might see a drop of $50 on the droid, but i'm kind of doubting it.
Lol, they are being very very stubborn.
Well, I asked about the annual upgrade program and they told me that my BASE plan is only $39.99/month and that with added features (texting) it brings it up to $49.99/month and because the base is not $49.99/month they can't go through with the deal.
I talked to a rep who talked a manager about it, he said he could give me one year pricing on the phone (the promotional price plus $70, IIRC) but did not address the annual upgrade. I was also not able to talk to the manager directly.
What's strange, though, is that I called an official Verizon Wireless store and they had absolutely NO CLUE how much the Incredible would cost and when it would be released.
Very strange, I'm going to try some other stores in my area.
EDIT:
Okay this is getting a little ridiculous. Talked to another store, they totally rejected the annual upgrade idea saying they cannot and will not break policy because of the $10.00/month difference.
He then told me that the one-year pricing program (promo price plus $70) was no longer available and that the other rep was wrong in saying that it was an option. ARGH!
Also, they keep writing notes on my account so whenever I call a different location I get this awkward period where they read the notes and wonder why I've called multiple stores. ><
I mentioned that I'd be upgrading to a larger, more expensive plan AND extending my plan when buying this phone. All I got was something along the lines of "Yeah man, we really want to sell you this phone, but we can't break the policy." Are these policies really that inflexible?
