Verizon will not give me a courtesy iPhone upgrade

OK, I think this is pretty bad. I upgraded my phone so I could make International calls last August because I travel to Europe once or twice a year. I didn't even know my phone couldn't do Int'l calls. Well, I wanted an iPhone and they said I had to get another line, which I have no need for, or pay the $649. Really, they would lose a customer over $10 a month. Any ideas?

Thanks,

Kev

I want a courtesy upgrade for the Thunderbolt when it comes out. Oh and I want another when the Bionic is released around the middle of this year. Verizon owes that to me right? Just because they aren't an iPhone doesn't mean I don't deserve to upgrade when I want.

Yeah open a new line. It's like saying Walmart would not give me night vision because I did not know my camera would not take pictures in the dark. Sorry but it makes no sense why they should just give you a IPhone.

lol...we aren't tying to pile on you here. it's just that thousands (if not millions) of people feel the same way as you. verizon would be broke in a week if they subsidized the $500 for all of them.

Are you aware the Verizon iPhone won't work in Europe?

Yes, they told me that. I just wanted one, like everyone else in the world. Darn! I need to get a Droid I guess, they work in Europe right?
