3G Smartphone Early Upgrade Process (eROES)

• 2. COOS – Requests agent’s sales outlet ID and eROES POS Location Code to process eROES order.
• 3. COOS – Verifies MTN is listed in NBA. If the MTN is not listed in NBA; the MTN is not eligible. Verifies in Device Manager that new device is a 3G Smartphone and begins processing the remainder of the transaction in eROES. Verifies what data package the customer is requesting and gives agent corresponding application number for pending offers.
• 4. COOS – Change upgrade eligibility date and/or date in billing to allow for a qualified upgrade.
• 5. COOS - Enters MEID/ESN (verifying it is a 3G Smartphone) in eROES and adds $29.99 data package and confirms any other plan changes the customer requests. Provides application number to agent/retailer.
• 6. Agents/Retailers – Pull order(s) by application number and clicks submit to complete order and then requires customer to sign eROES customer agreement.

If I read that right, I can't use my sons eligible upgrade and then swap the phone to my line. I wonder how that will be monitored.

I'm sure they can lock the number to the ESN of the device.

lol they can do that, I have had it done more then once. Maybe VZW says they cant but the store's here dont care and just like that you have to renew your contract for 2 more years.

Vulcan - I would imagine that if you gave your droid to your son and you took the Droid X that all will be fine as they get the revenue for the data line and such.

OK....i understand parts of it....parts are jibberish to me..... My eligibility upgrade is november 14, 2010 so am i taking this right to say that i qualify?

[seldon]

This is so lame. Who has a contract that expires in the next six months but isn't eligible for an upgrade yet? Almost no one.

Man the more and more I see the droid x the harder it become to stick by my guns and wait.

[bamfsig45]

I think Im over reading this.

Not currently NE2 (New Every Two), EUP (Equipment Upgrade), AUP (Annual Upgrade) eligible

Means AUP before 12/31 can or can not upgrade?

Vulcan.. Yes you can do that. You wouldn't be using the Promo upgrade. If your son has a regular upgrade on your account then there's no issue.

What I wanna know is how the hell you guys got this promo guide 15 minutes before it reached my work email. haha

Any questions guys gimmie a shout
