So I’m not sure if this will go thru since Verizon internal services are complete and utter shit.
Here’s what I’ll be looking at assuming Verizon reps aren’t lying and/or lied to by their systems to me.
5 iPhone 15 Pro Max, 1 Apple watch, 2 iPad for around $250 bucks a month. 4 lines are on the unlimited plus plan (32 bucks per line) and 1 line on the old get more plan (52 bucks per line). I also get a 500 dollar Costco card. I did have to trade in 5 iPhone 12 pro max in at 1k/phone. Also, I had to pay around 600 bucks in taxes and fees. Discounts include verizon fios and autopay ($20 bucks per line).
Completely agree, especially given their history of being hacked. I used a credit union account that I never use…I just put a few thousand in the account to cover bills in case I forget to pay by credit card prior to the billing date.
I could sell it myself-but I doubt the 13 will fetch that much now that the 15 is coming out next week
I used to sell it to some coworkers previously for the same as apple was offering… just trade it in and be done-it only cost me $449 anyway
Some credit cards give you insurance on phones paid on your card. It’s cheaper for me to give up the auto pay discount than having to buy other insurance.
decided to switch to tmobile and going through costco tomorrow. it might be a month before we actually get the phones but with all the gift cards and high trade in values it’ll be worth it.
currently for porting in from att and upgrading on financing contract for 2 years i’m going to get $150 + $250 per line, along with $830 trade-in credit for my iphone se3 64gb. per line for 2 lines. we have to select the go5g plus plan but the costco guy is giving me an insider code for 20% off. i’ll also get a 3rd line for free that i can use to get another $150 gift card and another $830 trade-in on.
I think that’s relative to each persons situation.
I like it because I like to have the newest phone each year so for me I think it evens out. If I were to pay in full and trade or sell each year, I’d maybe come out a few hundred better but not much. I have, in the past sold off my older devices, paying off the loan and pocketing some “equity” using the iUP.
Although this is the first year I considered keeping my 14Pro. I’m just not thrilled with this 15Pro. I don’t like the titanium, it feels way cheaper than the stainless steel from the previous model and I’m also finding that my pics are blurrier and less sharp than my 14Pro was, I assume that could be fixed via software but I’m not sure.
. charging cable is nice though. rougher material
