A:AnswerIf you buy through Best buy, then put some money down to bring down the payment. But if the phone is not sale you might want to keep waiting a bit, sometimes they go on sale; check every week.
A:AnswerCheck with your carrier. I got a trade in through Verizon. The deal is, you don’t get the full trade in value-usually $100. They deduct a small amount from your monthly bill for 24 months. Thats how they get you to stay with them.
A:AnswerThis, I am having issues with but I am told that I need to hook up a wire on my stereo to set up Android auto and then it will work. I have not taken the time yet to do it, so we will see.
A:AnswerYes. You sign up for the payment plan, and then the sales consultant will ask you if you would like to pay off a portion of your phone (up to a certain amount - you are not allowed to pay off the entire balance until one month after you sign up). Then you pay off that portion with your gift cards.
A:AnswerYour best bet is to "chat" with Verizon customer representatives whether or not you are currently Verizon customer. They have several discounts available for military, fed/state government employees, and auto-billing. Without discount, you will likely have $80 account charge and then $20 monthly charge for each phone line. Tax and surcharge for each will be another $4 per line. The total should be around $180. If you are going with 24 months contract for phone purchase, they will add monthly charge for each phone on your bill.
A:AnswerI believe you would still have to pay for Verizon service in the US as well, otherwise you have to pay the early termination fee.
This may be moot, as I doubt they will let you sign up for the installment plan given you are leaving the country soon. Verizon runs credit and ID checks on anyone who signs up for an installment plan.
