If I buy one at Best Buy, will I still keep my plan with Verizon? Or do I have to get a new plan and all that?

Can you just tell me the process of buying a new phone at a store instead of your carrier's store? (e.g. buying a new phone at best buy instead of through verizon).

The reason I want to buy from Best Buy is because the phone I want is cheaper than at Verizon. At Best Buy it's 29.99 and at Verizon it's 49.99

you will have to sign a new contract or extend your current contract which bites either way

my suggestion is to find a pick up and go model by verizon with similar features and then switch sim cards. the carriers dont want this secret to get out but this is your best bet, its cheaper and doesnt extend your contract. you may even be able to find the phone on ebay but be careful that you dont buy form someone selling a contract.

I hope this helps :-)

Best Buy's price might be for new customers (or customers starting a new line of service) only.

If not, buy the phone. Pay attention to any contracts they give you. In fact, if they ask for your wireless number, that's a tip off that they'll be extending your contract.

Then, call Verizon and tell them you have a new phone you want to activate. Double check to see if this means that your contract will be extended or not.

I stay about thirty miles from the nearest Verizon save. I particularly were a VZW client for most, many years and my very last 3 phones I ordered on-line. you're suitable...I do look to note a larger reductions on phones and kit even as procuring on-line. you also don't have those severe-stress sales human beings attempting to promote you something you're literally not particular of, or hurry you in and out the door like on the save I particularly were to. also, procuring on-line you are able to take the time, flow again and inspect phones again and again and over! you in reality purchase once you're waiting. the web web site usually provides client rankings and comments from those who own the phone(s) you've an activity in! after I ordered a telephone on-line and it hid a minor "glitch". I took it again to the save and it became repaired and go back to me instant! so some distance, i have in no way had to go back a telephone by mail that i have bought on-line. i imagine you'll adore your on-line procuring journey.

$49.99 even after your upgrade allowance?
All my upgrades have been for the amount of the sales tax only.
