I just purchased a 4G LTE phone with "double-data" (4GB for $30) at Best Buy, after being assured by both the Best Buy Employees AND Verizon CS that I could keep the "double-data" if I exchanged the phone for another, as long as it was 4G LTE capable as well. I chose Best Buy instead of Verizon due to their 30-day return vs Verizon's 14-day.
Now I am seeing hints that although pre-orders are already starting, the Galaxy S III might not be released on Verizon until next month. I'm guessing this is to make absolutely certain that nobody gets "double-data" AND the Galaxy S III, especially since they discontinued the "double-data" program today and don't start pre-orders until tomorrow.
My question is, can I pre-order the Galaxy S III AND exchange the phone I just bought if the GSIII doesn't actually release until after my 30-day window? Can Best Buy still make the exchange after that, since I will have pre-ordered during my exchange period? If they absolutely can't, then I'll have to cancel my contract and return the phone before 14 days or else I won't be able to exchange the phone at all, AND I'll be locked into a contract.
All suggestions are appreciated.
