So I'm considering and most likely will switch away from Verizon and to a different provider for my three services (Internet/TV/Home Phone). I'm under a 2 year contract that expires in June. I want to switch providers while also keeping my home phone number which as I understand, can take a few days to process. Ideally, I want to make the transition as smooth as possible while avoiding any unnecessary costs.
If the contract expires in June, when exactly can I authorize the other provider to begin transitioning my phone service and install the new equipment while avoiding an ETF AND being charged for a month out of contract?
I see that the maximum ETF is $230 minus $10 for each month of full service under contract. Doesn't that mean that after 23 months I wouldn't be charged an ETF? If so, are there other any penalties to terminating early?
