Verizon Will Drop Phone Contracts, End Discounted Phones

[The_Sheff]

Man this is jacked up because even if you want to keep your phone over 3 years these Android updates reallyscrew you over if you have an old phone. Hell, my HTC One M8 started acting a fool when Jellybean dropped. You think you will save money in the long run by keeping the phone but then your phone is going to become unbearable to use.

Looks like I'm eligible for an update. Grabbed the Iphone 6 a few minutes ago.

I'm on the edge plan.. I have the iPhone 6 plus with 2 other lines with iPhones.... The remaining balance on my phones is $1382.00 on

Should I just pay it off outright?

My wife's phone is ass though it only has 8gb..

Wait what so this might means that the only way to get a new phone is to add $20 to your bill or pay full price???

, thats BULLshyt!

 

[beenz]

buy phone at discount..... new phone drops, list phone on ebay... sell old phone for damn near the normal price (not discount)... use money from old phone and buy new phone at upgrade price.... repeat next year... never pay for another upgrade again

this is what I've been doing for years. except I only upgrade every other year when my contract runs out.

Rocking that Eclair

 

[beenz]

Paying a for the phone as well as the bill at the same time why???

Wouldn't it make sense to buy the phone and own it outright?!?! IPhone 6S like $800 plus contract?!?!

u buy the phone outright, that would mean ur not gonna be on contract.
