Does anyone know when VzW is scheduled to offer either of these phones?

Anyone insiders have an idea of the price?

I was just curious if you get a discount on Verizon's phones if you upgrade after 1 yr. into your contract. I am on a 2 yr. contract of course, but would really like to upgrade around Christmas if any new stuff comes out, and at that point I will have had my contract for over 1 yr., but not yet 2 full years.
thanks!

I guess it's not so hard to believe that Cingular would be kicked out of the Better Business Bureau for having so many complaints, many of which go unanswered.
Only confirms how bad their service is.
In Chicago, Cingular ranks dead last in both customer service, and call service per JD Powers survey and Consumer Reports. Verizon and US Cell just about tie for first. Cingular also has the highest complaint rate with the FCC. Nationally, US Cell has the lowest complaint rate, followed by Verizon. Verizons complaint rate is double that of US Cell (because both get relatively few complaints filed with the FCC). Cingular's complaint rate is many times higher than Verizon's.
I guess Cingular really has raised the bar -- on bad service.

I am new to the site and was referred here by a Verizon rep when I went into the store to talk renewal and using my NE2 for a new phone. I spoke with him about the E815 and the 8100. He referred me to this site and suggested that I do more research on the two phones or I could choose to wait for 2 upcoming releases from Verizon. I've been browsing here throughout the day and you guys seem to really know your stuff! I have a request if anyone would like to give me some advice.

First of all, I have heard non-specific details about Verizon "crippling" or "locking" features on phones. I don't quite understand what this means but I would be rather insulted to find that a brand new phone I just bought was unable to perform certain options ...

If true... amazing. Verizon may finally be starting to GET IT when it comes to what consumers want out of Bluetooth.

Whoa. *faints* 😳

thanks

I just recently purchased a phone through Verizon Wireless, and had a few questions with regards to the service. Anyone who can answer any or all of these questions will instantly be in my good graces 🙂

1. Is the first month's service prorated? If so, are the minutes prorated as well?
2. What text messaging plans, if any, are available? Please be as specific as possible in regards to price and messages included.
3. When a plan (America's Choice 39.99, if it helps) includes domestic long distance and roaming, is that organized by state, or is that organized by regional area?

Thanks in advance for any and all information you provide.

I remember the Motorola StarTac (786😎, that phone was a tank. I swear you could throw it off a building and it would still work. Then came the not so great Motorola V120 series. Then the abysmal T720/T730 series. The V60 series rebounded some (the V60c/i were pretty decent phones) and that takes us to the V710 and E815. Those are doing fairly well.

So, just wanted to get some opinions on this. Please, this is not a Motorola bashing thread, but simply a friendly poll. 🙂

i just changed my 650 plan to the 4000 min unlimited data plan , did anybody realize that VZW requires you too extend your contract date? I had 6 months left they just added 18 more months, This was the first I heard that they can change your plan by just saying it nothing in writing? I don't believe verbal contract are legal?
Has anybody else been illegally extended. I am about to pay the 175. and tell them to stick there service you know where. 😲

A customer has just purchased a game with unlimited use for his handset. A month later he decides to upgrade to another handset. Is the purchase of that game transferrable to the new handset? I am sure ringtones are not...but would games be?

Technically speaking can't someone walk into a VZW store and purchase any cell phone at retail price, sign up for any Americas Choice or any other plan for that matter and choose not to have a promotion and not be bound to a contract?

Is there a way to dispute 2 or 3 calls on my latest statement via the online portal? Or do I have to deal w/ a live CSR?

just got off the phone with CS and they said you can opt out of your contract with no eft!!and keep the phone to sell on ebay or do whatever with,plus she said there is no time limit to come back meaning you can get a new phone at discount,now my question is,why would vzw do this when all they got to do is waive the .40 charge saving them money,weird....what am i missing here LOL

I have ONE BILL PAY, unfortunately i cannot use the MY ACCOUNT feature on Verizonwireless website. Is it possible to use the MY ACCOUNT feature with 1BILLPAY. THANKS

I've heard that this phone is'nt going to be offered at corporate stores, only through indirect. Anyone else heard this??? I also heard that the BT won't be as hampered, and you'll be able to do the file transfers with it. Any thoughts?

😡
DUDE RIGHT NOW VERIZON TOTTALY SUCKS ASS I WENT TO A VERIZON STORE TODAY TRYING TO CANCEL MY CONTRACT FREE OF CHARGE OF COURSE.. AND EVEN CALLED CS YESTERDAY AND OF COURSE THEY TOLD ME I COULD CANCEL FREE OF CHARGE BUT I HAD TO DO IT IN A STORE. SO TODAY I TOOK THE TIME TO DRIVE TO A STORE AND CANCEL AND TO MY SURPRISE THEY MADE IT INTO A BIG ASS DEAL THE CLERK OR ASSISTANT OR WHATEVER HE WAS STARTED CALLING ALL THESE PEOPLE EVEN THOUGH THERE WERE NOTES IN MY ACCOUNT SAYIN I COULD CANCEL WITH A SUPERVISOR APPROVAL. HE KEPT BRING THIS BACK INTO EFFECT THAT I COULD NOT CANCEL SENCE IT WAS A CONTACT THAT I HAD TO PAY THE FULL PRICE OF THE EFT. THAT MY REASON FOR WANTING TO CANCEL WAS NOT GOOD ENFOUGH (COME ON I WANT ANOTHER COMPANY NEXTEL)...

how exactly does it work. i checked out verizons website and am abit confused.
1) $0.99 daily access. thats about $30/month
2) $0.10 per min. since i don't pay for a plan with bulk min then i must pay per min.
3) unlimited incalling and nights - cool
4) activation fee up to $35. uptp? could it be free?
5) $20 setup fee?
6) $50 airtime package. i thought this was pay as you go and not prepay.

this sounds expensive.
