    VZW says eligible for upgrade on 4/21 - do they allow early upgrade?

    Just wondering....the VZW site says that I am eligible for my upgrade on 4/21. Do I need to wait for 4/21 or do they allow a grace period?

    Probably either a retail store or through telesales.

    If I'm annoyed and you're annoyed, does that make us a paranoid ??

    Having worked at tech support at a VZW call center last year, we were required to upgrade at least 5 lines a month. We were allowed to push back the upgrade date up to 30 days, barring the iPhone. I'm sure someone there can get you upgraded now, at least to a non-iPhone. Give it a try.

    Yeah Apple doesn't allow any sort of haggling of the price of an iPhone, including early upgrades. Otherwise it can be pushed a month or so. If you're thinking of going from a basic phone to a smartphone you are particularly golden.

    That sucks, I was hoping someone would come back and say yes (including the iPhone)...

    CMO can do upgrades within 30 days, except for iphones You're not that far away from the upgrade. Just wait it out. Enjoy the iphone.
    No longer a VZW employee, but still a good information source.

    Well, interestingly enough, I'm not too interested in the iPhone. I'm coming from a BB and was looking at the Rezound.

    Get the Rezound, its got to be one of the best phone's on Verizon. And LTE is a big plus as well..

    The Rezound was $49.99 through 4/9. It's back at $199.99 today, which is a bummer. I have an upgrade on 4/23 and really want the Rezound, but don't want to pay $200+ for a phone. I paid $300 for the Droid 2 when it came out and that was a mistake.

    @urban, where you been? Hadn't heard from you in a while! First, how could you pay $300 then? And what are you looking at now? (Note for me)

    On top of that you'd get hit with Verizon Implementing $30 Upgrade Fee Starting April 22.
    Good thing my anniversary date is 4/21
