Verizon now has a trade in program and I put in some of my old Phones(Palm 700p and Samsung i760) only to find out they were worthless. However when I put in my Eris it came up with a surprising $132. Being that I only paid $50 in the first place for it, I'm shocked. Thought I would share this with the community. Oh yeah, if you want to do it, here is the site https://www.trade-in.vzw.com/AppraisalPage.aspx
You paid more than $50. It's subsidized by your contract.
Are they going to send you a check or do you get a discount off from something else? I am assuming you have to buy something else at full price.
$132 for Eris!!!
I did the same thing this morning (I already had upgraded to a Droid X). $132 is not a bad price for that device. I also have a Moto Droid 1 and I put that in, and it only came up as $50????? As far as how they pay you, they pay you in Verizon Gift Cards. With those, I turn around and pay my bill thus freeing up money I didn't have before!
Oh thats cool.
I did the wizard for the Eris and at first got only $46...but then I realized I clicked YES YES YES too fast. The third one should be NO if you want to see what top dollar is.
So how would this work? We'd get the rebate but still have a bit of time on our contracts, but have no phone. We'd have to then either buy new phones at full retail or re-up our contracts. Am I right?

Yes you would need to have some other phone that I were using. You could do the renewal then trade in the old phone later and apply it to your bill.
If you are on a family plan you might be able to steal the discount from another line and get an incredible for 149. That might be what I do because I have 3 lines out of contract and the people on those lines don't want a new phone. I'm just wondering if I should wait till 4g phones come out.

I signed up a few minutes ago! Already switched to the Droid X a while back. Just wondering.. Are we supposed to include the charger? The microSD card? It never mentions anything but the phone itself. I don't need either of these things, but don't want to look stupid if I shouldn't include them lol..
EDIT: I missed the FAQ link at the bottom of their site. So to answer my own question, do not include any accessories with the device. =]
I sold mine on Craigslist for $150 and turned around and bought a Droid for $175. If you live in certain areas, there are a lot of cell phone places that want to buy Eri and the like to flash to MetroPCS or Cricket and charge another $100 for them. Just something else to think about.
I cannot believe Big Red will give you more for an Eris than for a Droid 2 or Droid X. Anyone care to speculate?
Eris is like a fine wine or what?
Verizon is trying to get more replacements to avoid giving droid eris users higher end replacements like DX.

See, that's when you wait till just before they stop supporting it, and hit in with warrenty
So I just "lost" my phone, I say lost because it was lost for 3 days and, being that its my only line of communication, I had to buy another one using insurance. Can I turn the old one in for this deal? Or does VZW void your IMEI when you lose a phone?
Never mind, that's part of the agreement. Crap, I was hoping to get an easy $132 (well really $42 since I had to pay $90 to asurion).
I don't think they check. Good luck

After failing at convincing myself not to get one, since I already own a Note 10.1, I headed to a local Verizon brick and mortar ready to pay full price to retain unlimited data. Upon arriving found...
They have it in stock. Check.
They have it in grey. Check.
I asked to pay full price and that's when things went sour. He pulled up my mobile # then proceeded with the upselling trying to get me to add a line, up my plan, change my plan saying that it won't affect my unlimited data when I know it's a lie then when he couldn't get his way he said he couldn't sell me one even for full price.
Learned my lesson. Dropped by Best Buy with a different approach since they're all obviously giving priority to new contract and contract extension. When it was my turn I said I wanted to buy one full price as a gift and the recipient would come in to choose plan and activate. It rung up $799 but had them price match to Verizon for $699. A kind gentleman here posted a receipt for $670 so will use that for price adjustment towards accessories.
Awesome phone and well worth the effort. Another BB salesperson and a customer noticed I was buying it and complemented it as they bought it too.
It's because by buying the phone outright they don't make commission off of it. Also by buying the phone out of contract, it's one less phone to sell to someone who is planning on upgrading or signing a new contract. Cheers to you though, it's an awesome phone.
I bet if you would have called customer service they would have forced them to do it.
The 1-800 line has over riding power over ANYTHING they say in the store if your account is noted.
You can buy at full retail online and over the phone(I did) and to VZW Coportate offices a sale is a sale.
I work for a Verizon store and can confirm that adding a line will keep your data. What I do is swap the new phone to the number you want and scan an ESN of a crappy feature phone change the last 2 numbers of the ESN and that way you won't get billed for the data on your added line. Works like a charm and I get commission you get your new phone and its a win win.

I had a similar experience when I picked it up on the 29th when the store first opened. They tried telling me that they could not sell the phone for full price on launch day. The salesman then tried calling the manager to check, but was not able to get hold of him. Luckily another associate said that the store was allowed to sell one phone at full price... which happened to be me as I was waiting for them to open.

I bought my gray Note II from a brick and mortar VZ store for full price an hour after they came in with no problem.
From what I understand the policy is that it's up to the store manager's discretion whether or not they wish to sell you a phone at full retail or not.
It's not so much a matter of commission I don't believe, as they do earn some commission on even full retail sold phones, but the thing is it looks a lot better for the store to get a new customer or upgrade an old one, than it is to sell a phone out right. And selling that phone removes inventory that could go to a potential upgrade/new customer.
sorry i am new.
why not add a line and then pay 350 to terminate it? will it hurt your credit or something?
I just had a bought the phone in store for my fiancé using an upgrade on my unlimited line. Didn't affect my unlimited at all. Just have to get a rep that knows how to do it

Think Verizon charges u another ETF which all comes out to $15 less then buying the phone at full retail ($700) but easier and less of a headache just buying at retail (there is some kind of loop with a dummy line on your account but not everyone has one)
Whatever the Verizon store policy is, it must be manager discretion or it's not followed consistantly.
I called the closest store to verify they had a gray Note 2 in stock and an hour later I was walking out the door with one at full retail with no issues.
I just told the sales guy I wanted to pay full retail to keep my unlimited data, and he said "no problem". I just verified on "My Verizon"...It shows my new phone and my unlimited data is still intact.
BTW...LOVE this phone! Coming from a rooted DX, running CM7...This phone is 'da bomb'!
I got mine full cost, no issues. Wish I had got the gray titanium color though...sigh.

This isn't the first time I've heard this so I was worried when I went in Thursday trying to buy it.
They let me do it, could tell she was reluctant. Now I know why since they don't receive the commission, which is stupid.
Same thing happened to me... I felt the pain of waiting so long for this phone then telling me they couldn't sell me it.

I will only buy phones from best buy because they price matched a launch phone heavily and their 9 dollar a month unlimited warranty is amazing. I bent an iPhone 5 in half they took it back laughing and gave me a new one. Assurion would a charged 100 to swap. So far I'm liking best buys phone insurance and price match on a launch day even

If it's a corporate store, they have to sell it to you at full retail. Or at least that's what I've been told by Verizon customer service in the past.
Back when the Droid 3 first came out, I went in to buy one at full retail. The rep said they didn't sell phones at full retail in the store, and that I'd have to order one online or over the phone. I asked to speak with the manager, and he told me the same thing - "We can't sell phones at full retail in the store." I said "Yes you can. Either you don't know that you can for some odd reason or you're just making that up." Having purchased phones at full retail from corporate stores before, I promptly called customer service and told them where I was and what was going on. The manager received a call a few minutes later, and I walked out with my new Droid 3 a few minutes later.
Authorized retailers might be a different story, but corporate stores should sell it to you. If they don't, call customer service right then and there.

This is exactly what I did yesterday at my brick and mortar verizon store. Was going to pay full price to get the phone, but the the salesman stated he could convert my two lines I currently have into a family plan without changing the unlimited data I have and add a new line for $10 a month. He then looked at my account and just used an old ESN from an old non smart phone so I won't get charged data rates on the new phone line. Yes I understand the long run I am paying almost $600 for the phone but it is spread out over the 2 year term. Now I have a line I can use for upgrades in the future if I am not forced to dump my unlimited data. I was very pleased with my salesman yesterday.
So, I bought my HTC ONE last weekend, paid full price minus 35% discount with work. 420.00. I get a call today saying I have to be on contract with discount. I asked why in the world would i pay full price w discount to be on contract. What was point. He said he could refund me and put me under contract at the 199 price.
Heres my question... I have the phone. I signed NO contract. I paid it and walked away. DO I need to go in and do this, or did they just mess up and trying to recover some money? I need a ATT rep or salemsan to give me honest answer, the guy was nice and its his manager riding him on this.
That sounds like a load of bull. I used to work at Best Buy Mobile and the way reps make money is through contract activations. You barely make anything on no contract sales. He probably wasn't supposed to sell the phone no contract since its a brand new phone and has such a high potential to be sold with contract. I wouldn't take it back. Especially since that's a great price for no contract
That's what I'm thinking. I just want confirmation before I tell them to kick rocks. Plus they hinting at swapping phones out. Mines already unlocked rooted and running. I told him he isn't getting phone back regardless. I'm not swapping. I just need someone who can tell me either way for sure. Thanks for reply
sounds like you need to speak to a manager. I wouldn't let them bully you.
Its coming via manager. I don't trust a manager more than anyone else

I don't think you'll get a real answer from someone who works at AT&T. IMO, I'd just ignore them completely. As you said, you have the phone in your hands, you didn't sign a contract, there really is nothing they can do to come after you. If they tried to charge you the additional money, it would be an unauthorized charge that you could dispute with your CC company and they would surely lose.
Worst case they blacklist the imei
True. Blacklist imei...then what...phone won't work?

What possible cause would they have for blacklisting the IMEI? The phone is not stolen, tampered with, etc., you have proof of purchase. Just because they screwed up doesn't put you in the wrong at all.
I'm with ya. I think he realized he sold me phone early, display model, and wants to swap out and get me under contract. No way I'm going there. Either I'll pay rest or ignore him. I just don't want att to screw w me. I'll drop them fast. My 300 plus a month won't hurt them but I'll spend it somewhere else

Technically he is correct. Your fan discount percentage requires a 2yr agreement. However unless your willing to go in and sign I don't see what they can do to make you as you already paid and have the phone.

So why would one use a discount at full price to sign contract, when contract price is a lot cheaper? He couldnt explain.

I've never had to sign any contract when using my discount and I've bought many phones that way. Like many here I'd rather pay full price or in this case full price minus the discount and be able to walk away whenever I wanted too.
can I unluck this phone myself?

Tha might be his manager ridding his butt for it, but it might be the rep also that realized he could've gotten a good return by activating the phone and you getting an upgrade. They cannot do anything to you at this point since you bought the phone outright and did sign a contract. They cannto blacklist your IMEI either because you did not steal the phone or aquire it some other way. you purchased the phone from them.
it is getting closer to the end of the month and they do work on commision, so he is probably thinkin about his quota for this month.
When i work for AT&T and a customer told me he wants to purchase the phone outright no contract i would just try to sell accesories, if that didn't work, i would just sell the phone, end of story.
Hope this helps!!!!

He is not correct, the FAN gives you a discount on your plan and when you purchase phone outright (no contract), he is a premier customer which get a discount when they purchase a phone with no contract. When you do a contract it doesn't matter is you are premier or not. The premier perks are : dicsount from service, accesories, handsets and that's where is stops.

Eip payments owed in two phones by two different people.
Curious if this is how it could work by default or request to tmobile.
If two people have new lines both making Eip payments and owe I. Each phone , and you trade devices with them does the payme rd you make go toward the device that is now registered in your SIM card since when u put SIM In any phone that becomes the device that shows up in your account .Or do the Individuals that traded pay for there original phone even tho it is now registering on your sin and account .
And if not is it possible for the both to call tmobile and say they want the swapped phones to become the phones they want to pay for .Just to safeguard each others now swapped phones from non Eip payments and Imei block.

The point is if both devices are being paid on and cost the same . What's the difference if you trade and both people continue to pay on the eip towards the NOW Device that is in the account since the trade so you aren't subjected to a imei cut off cause the idoiot other guy defaults ...it should default and shut off his phone which would be the one that that you traded him and he is now using not the one he traded u .

Confusing.
But here is how it works.
Your person A is buying a phone and paying on it, then sell it to person B.
Person B will be out of luck if person A stops paying.
Tmobile really doesn't let you transfer payments of a phone. The way they see it is that it's not your phone till it's paid for.
Trust me on this. A friend got burnt on this and end up with a blacklisted phone for $300
I imagine they won't let you do this until you pay off your current phone.

I certainly think it would be advisable to pay off the phones first, even if TMO allows the practice. It is simply cleaner for all involved.
You pay your eip and other guy pays his. Tmobile doesn't care what phone you are using. For eg..I had an S4 which I bought on eip, but sold it. I'm still paying the eip for that even though I am using the One which I bought for full price. If you buy a phone thru eip, you will pay the $20 for the next 24 months irrespective of you keep, sell, trade or throw your device.
Bottom line T-Mobile doesn't care what phone you use as long as your eip payments are made properly. The only issue happens when you trade and the other guy stops paying his eip. I believe T-Mobile can blacklist that imei. So the answer to your question, the payment you make always goes to the original phone you bought on eip, not the phone your SIM is in. Think about it, if you put your sim in a device which was paid off full, will T-Mobile stop taking the $20 eip from you? No.
Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk 2
Think of EIP as a credit card (with $0 fee & 0% interest)
You are responsible for what you purchase and what you do with it afterwards is your business. (Trade, sell, etc)
That does not alleviate you from paying off your balance for what you purchased.
An IMEI can be blacklisted if the account goes into canceled status and the balance is not paid; or if the device is reported lost/stolen (this can be done by either Tmo or Assurion)
There is a high risk of getting a blacklisted (or soon to be blacklisted) device when buying on CL or just off a street corner.

I can confirm this post as being correct. I am a tmobile rep.
Tmobile will not transfer or trade eip from one account to another. For any reason.
The money you owe on eip is attached to the account not the phone itself.
Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk 2
I can confirm they will not transfer an eip under any circumstances. I just had a friend take an assumption of liability on my account. I specifically asked the rep (who spoke very poor English) if this could be done, if not there was no reason to go through. She said yes it could. Well apparently not I called back several times and what ended up happening is my friend ended up with both my lines and no phone, he was not happy . It was a giant mess and they wouldn't even let me keep doing the installment plan, only pay the device off immediately. Thank goodness I was still under the Buyers Remorse period so I just mailed it back, but my friend missed out on a one week old GS4 with the down payment and taxes made. As a good gesture I did take back over the line and termed it out myself.
Simply put if im correct...your balance is your balance and his balance is his balance. If something goes south on your end ...the phone your using at that time is blacklisted and vice versa. EIP just is a extra curveball ib the trading game

EIP clarification
The EIP payment stays on whatever account it was purchased on, regardless of which line or which account it is being used on. The only way to make EIP go away is to pay it off early or ride out all installments. Example: You could buy phone X, make one installment payment, then sell the phone. Person A is now using that phone. You still have 23 installment payments remaining on your account even if person A is using that phone. The smart thing to do would be to take whatever money you made from selling the phone and put it towards your remaining EIP balance. That will free up EIP availability towards your next purchase. You could either do that or simply put that extra money down on a new device. Bottom Line: regardless of who owns the phone or is using it, EIP stays on the account from which it was purchased.
Hope that clears it up. I went round and round with my local store to finally come to this understanding. Thanks!
I bought a phone off someone from Craigslist. The EIP program was new and I had just switched to T-Mobile so I didn't even think of this happening. Needless to say, I'm out money and I have a shiny new coaster instead of a smartphone. All because that person stopped paying their EIP.

THIS. it doesn't matter if the IMEI/ESN is clean at the time of purchase like it is on Sprint/Verizon. the IMEI and really the phone are tied to the original buyer forever. it doesn't matter if he never activated the phone because they scan the IMEI on the box at the time of purchase.
there is no way to transfer ownership of the phone in T-mobiles eyes, ever. I once asked it i could report a phone stolen that i had sold to a guy over 2 years ago and have that IMEI blocked. answer was yes without question.
Be safe buying used phones people. demand a receipt or proof the phone has been paid off in full or walk away. Deals can be too good to be true.
Anyone know if we are still eligible for the $200 credit for upgrading even if we're in an old plan that gives us discounted pricing? Last time around for the Note edge wasn't required. I've gotten conflicting answers from chat.

That's what I've heard too. Upgraded a line and in the past its counted. Here goes nothing.
They are offering a 200 bill credit or VZW gift card if you trade in any working smartphone. We had to trade in our phones to upgrade because they were under an edge agreement and were not completely paid off. They only give you the credit if you trade in a working paid for smartphone.
Sweet! Thanks for the helpful information.
Also won't work if you are trying to pay full list in order to keep your Unlimited, as I certainly want to. I was told you have to go with one of the new plans at a Verizon store, but who knows how truthful or knowledgeable the rep was
Pulled an original Verizon Droid out of the drawer for a tasty 200 credit today!
My girlfriend and I just switched to Verizon with this deal. From what the rep. said, it's ending on the 31st. At least here on the east coast. Figured I'd throw that in.
The promotion I am talking about is good until Sept 20th according to the rep I spoke to.

The rep you spoke to was probably trying to close a deal quickly. Deal is still up on their website as well. Also, Best Buy is also offering a similar $200 offer with their one gift card when you trade in a phone, plus you get a free wireless charger. (You can use that gift card towards the phone as well.)
I usually get my phones from Best Buy because if you end up not liking the phone for some reason, there's no restocking fee if you return within the 13 days they give you.
We turned in an old Droid X and a Droid Incredible the other day and got 400 instant bill credit. Man that was sweet.
Just got mine today and they still had the deal. Although, because of some system issues, it went towards my bill and not the down payment

It should of when to the down payment, the only thing the trade in shouldn't of paid was the taxes. I was in verizon getting my phone and they tried to pull this on me, and three others while on the store. I went to the GM and asked why they were all making the same mistake, cause it was the exact same mistake (miss quoting the final price, saying they can't return the trade ins and they will put it on the bill) I asked if they were being trained this way, since it was scamming the customer. He got angry and said, I just follow orders and walked off. Vzw Corp is having agents screw this up on purpose, don't stand for it.
