In any case, its fair to say that VZW has not done a good job of informing reps about the change of policy on upgrades that began on June 1.
I remember walking into a VZW Store a few days after the new policy took effect, and the floor level reps didn't know anything about the new policy... they had to go run to the manager or policy nerd or whoever before they believed me that the upgrade date had changed.
the $20 fee is for annual upgrade, when you upgrade a line after 12months when you were on a 24 month agreement. other than that I don't know if you can do the 4 month early on a one year or not, but this is kinda of lame, it is not like you signed up then they said you couldn't upgrade after 10 months, all of these options were better than what you started with.
