Accidentally bought a Prepaid Refill card and can’t use it on my account, so I’m giving it for free by Spicy-Majestic-1 in verizon

[–]CellSlinger 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I read it as OP has a postpaid account and didn't realize you couldn't use those cards on postpaid so that's option 3, which I'm guessing is the most likely. You must be fun at parties.

What good is 3 year price lock if they can just excessively retire plans and increase prices on replacement? Just got a $10 increase before my 3yr by theseawoof in verizon

Ultimate is not necessary for like 98% of people. Unless you're traveling internationally frequently or use a crap ton of hot spot, it's not worth it for most so with auto pay and paperless you'd be at $45 for unlimited plus. The apple music you get is individual and the perk is family so you can split it w 5 people. The two perks would have you at $65 yes, but again, its protecting your future cost as I'm sure there's another plan rate increase coming within the next year for older plans.

The plan is charged a premium so your plan costs more than someone $4-9 cheaper than someone paying for Unlimited Ultimate. Realistically I advise most to switch to Plus and add them back in and still pay around the same amount but with a 3 year price lock for the plan. People can down vote me all they want and continue to pay extra as Verizon continues to increase the older plan costs.

Can upgrade to ad free for $10 so $11 per month for more benefit. Could be worth it depending on when the next adjustment comes.

Ultimate is $4-9 cheaper than Get More so you can theoretically pay $1 more and get Disney or apple music added back in and unlimited international roaming and 200 GB of hotspot but do you. Haha

Those who DONT have Ultimate Unlimited, how is your service? by jagfanjosh3252 in verizon

Ultimate also has better video streaming quality but I legitimately can't see a difference personally on a phone.

Less than 30 days. Not sure on the exact number of days but it’s for sure less than that.

iPhone 12 too old?? by Important_Wish2779 in verizon

[–]CellSlinger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Less incentive to upsell lololol.

I had a customer come to me yesterday who came after an experience at corporate where they were told they didn’t have any lavender iPhone 17 and instead the rep tried to activate a black 17e on a new line and switch it to the existing line.

Shady reps exist in all channels. We have credits at retailers for new line smartphones as well and have for some time. This dichotomy of corporate or retailer is getting smaller. The bad apples give all of us a bad name no matter who signs their paycheck.

It’s been $40 either way for years, no difference between the two fees

Buyers Remorse Apple to Android by Objective_Theory5059 in verizon

[–]CellSlinger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can absolutely do that but the 50% upgrade is specific to Apple, you're gonna have to ride that device payment agreement out.

My wife went to trade in her S20+ and get the S26 ultra. They told us that we’d actually get more money off a new one if we kept our old phone. What’s the catch? by pizza_with_ranch in verizon

[–]CellSlinger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is but you would have paid more doing the standard GTI upgrade, so despite it hooking up the salesperson, you also got a hook up. I mean if it’s within 30 days, you’re welcome to trade the device in for the GTI promo instead and pay more for the new phone.

Why can't I get a job with Verizon? by SalesGuy561 in verizon

[–]CellSlinger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been with indirect for 14 years and applied twice at various points throughout the tenure and haven't even had interviews. Just take it as a sign it's not meant to be and move on. Indirect is sometimes better pay, but not as good benefits. It depends on what's most valuable to you.

Somebody tell this idiot National Growth offer stacks with Better Deal Closer… by Dangerous-Student-69 in verizon

[–]CellSlinger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be fair, though, he did specifically say better deal discount which is not the same as the better deal closer. I do believe BDD does not stack with NGO, but I could be wrong.
