LG VX-8100
activation fee!!!
just got back from a verizon store and i was informed that when you switch phones other than upgrading your contract,they are gonna start charging 15 dollars to do so,ie:bought a phone from ebay,person,friend,any other than a verizon store...if your contract is up and get a new phone,there is no charge,but if you have more than one phone you own and wanna bounce back and forth from one phone to another 15 dollars!!!!!!buy one from ebay,15 dollars!!!!to have it activated..
...
I have been told the 15 dollar "processing fee" not "activation fee" is to encourage customers to register with My Account and switch the ESN's on line. It'll save you time and money! SO JUST CHILL!
...
yep--you keep doing it online,soon they will catch up and charge for that too,i be chillin now!!!!!!
...
There is a problem with this though. You can not activate an EVDO phone over the web..... I have tried several times. They have told me that it is because of the additional options / feature codes that need to be turned on. They said they have to activate it one of about 4 ways, VCast, No VCast but Mobile Web, No VCast and No Mobile Web, etc, etc.... They told me this option of activation for EVDO phones was a long way off.
I really think in that case though they will not charge you. It's not your fault their system can't handle it.
