Wondering how I should upgrade..

it will not be a month by month you will still be with the contract you have.

 

You signed a 2 year contract when you purchased the droid, yes? Why would you think that you would go on a Month to Month contract by purchasing a Droid X at retail cost. When you have not fullfilled your origanal contract?

Verizon's upgrade policy is nearly the same as any other US carrier out there.

Your primary line will become elegible at the 1 year mark. The second line will become eleigble at 20 months.

Just because you want the latest and greatest does not grant you a right to upgrade at anytime without fullfilling your origanal contract.

 

You're making my brain hurt.

What makes you think you can all the sudden get out of your original contract and go month to month if you buy the X at retail price? If you buy it at retail price, all that means is that you aren't adding another 2 year contract on top of your original 2 year contract.

 

Did not mean to make you feel that way. Sometimes it is hard to read what my attitude is via text on the screen. Not trying to cut you down at all. If you would have purchased your origanal Droid at full retail and not signed a contract. Then yes, you would been able to be on a month to month service.

I see 10 of these threads pop up everyday, especially, when a new phone is getting ready to launch. I find it hard to understand that so many people have a hard time understanding the terms of the contracts they sign. That is all. So when I see these threads. I try to explain it in simple terms. Not trying to be mean.

 

I, on the other hand, am trying to be mean.

If you purchased a phone on a 2 year contract, and you are still in that contract, what makes a person think they can suddenly get out of their original contract by purchasing a different phone at full price? :icon_evil:


PS Just kidding about the mean part

 

Here's what I don't understand. Everyone wants to upgrade to the latest phone out there, then once they get it something else is out and they start wanting that too.

Why can't people just live with their purchase. They gave you 30 days to try it out. After that it's yours until your next upgrade, or at least wait close to your next upgrade.

In 3 months something will come out better then everything else again. When does the madness stop?

 

But you are still making payments on your original phone. If you go buy a car with a $100/month payment (yup, im cheap), give that car away and buy a new car out right (no payments on the new car). You still have that $100/month payment on the old car you gave away.
