Well I did this....and it's finally behind me. I'm going to take a minute of your time and maybe save you some grief.
I've been ATT forever. Uverse, Internet, cells ( 4 at one point ) and I've paid some hefty combined bills like over $600 in some cases so I decided to break up the monopoly. Get better eyes on where my dollars were going so last December I did the Verizon $650 per line to switch over. ( 2 lines ) I expect $1300 to land in my hands sooner or later to pay off my ATT iron.....it's what I was told.
Here's what really happened:
All in all this was a huge hassle and I regret switching. Their program is designed to be vague and try and force you to spend the cards at a store. They also told me not to worry about paying off ATT, they would understand completely because everyone is switching and waiting for payments to arrive. Yeah right, ATT threatened to cut the rest of my services and refer to collection if I didn't write them a check for the phones I sent to VZW for trade. I'm luck I had free cash available to cover the threat.
- It took 90 plus day for everything to pay
- $400 of the $1300 is bill credits ( $200 each line bill credit )
- The 2 Visa cards were discounted $13.99 each ( $435.99 ) Not $450.
- VZW will not accept them back to pay for the phones. You must pay off the phone all at once and it cannot be a multiple transaction. ( No partial pay ) There is a web site where you can transfer the cards into your bank account and it takes 3 to 5 days to show up.
The VZW S7 isn't all that either. The battery is weak and the phone is hot. You have to keep a charger handy. Their last update really screwed the phone up too. It freezes and stumbles a lot. I'd much prefer my old 5 or 6.
On the plus side, my bill is lower by about $65 a month but the service is about equal. I have yet to see any significant difference in coverage.
JMO and good luck
Verizon pay to switch....
