Anthony Verizon has been pestering me for weeks because my old flip cell was scheduled to be turned off at the beginning of next month. Also I have been without a contract for years. So they prorated the final bill's charges so when I activate the new phone when it arrives I won't be paying for the old phone and new one the same month. I got the 6 64 g for $300 with a $150 credit and they waved the $30 fee for reactivation or whatever it is. Then for $50 per month, I have unlimited calling and texting and 1 gig data. Massachusetts cost me another $40 in tax but no way around that. So I'm set. I also opted to buy the 7.15 insurance per month insuring me for loss, stolen or damaged phone. They did inform me that there would be a $100 charge if they did indeed replace a phone. Then of course there is a penalty for breaking the contract but had I bought a new unlocked phone I'd still be needing minutes and texting and maybe data, so with no long distance on my land line, I figured I made out pretty well. Good thing that storm hit and I never made it down to the Apple store last Friday before Verizon called me yesterday! In fact today a friend said she is still using an old flip phone and said she is paying more than I am for a whole lot less. She too is off contract with Verizon. I told her to call and get on the band wagon pronto. -----Original Message----- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Anthony Vece Sent: Friday, January 02, 2015 10:37 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: 6 or 6 plus
Hi Deidre; Starting with the 5s and up you can use Verizon's iPhone on any other cell carrier. I used my Verizon iPhone 5s on AT&T with no problem. Also, if you buy an unlocked iPhone you will probably not get the discounted price you would get with Verizon. I was pleasantly surprised at the knowledge most of the Apple employees have. I'm sure their is at least one employee in your local Apple Store who is aware of Voiceover. Good Luck Anthony -- The following information is important for all members of the viphone list.
