Assumption of Liability and continuing service

chargrave

Hey there community,

I was hoping someone out there in the internet would be able to help me understand and prepare to take over my own cell service!

Since my first cell phone, I have been a part of my Fathers verizon account. 5 months ago I checked myself into a rehab (alcoholic here) and I haven't had a cell since. This week I completed the four month aftercare program that I enrolled in after rehab. It's cell phone time again!!!

I told my father that I wanted to take over my cell service. He has talked to verizon/done whatever it is so I can call the assumption of liability line and I guess take that liability on to myself.

I have a few questions about this.....

I was hoping to get a new 4s and start a 2 yr contract while paying only 200ish. Does this AOL contract mean that I just skip in to wherever I am in my contract and am fully responsible for buying a new phone at full price?

Can I end that contract so I can just start one on my own?

One more thing.

I am 22 years old. I have never had a credit card and to my knowledge don't have bad credit. Never bounced a check or forgot to pay utilities or anything like that. Do I need to have a credit card when I walk into verizon to get a new phone?

Thanks friends!

You will have to honor the remaining time of the contract on that line. So if there is 6 months left then there is 6 months left. If there is 16 months left then there is 16 months left. You can start to see the "upgrade eligible" price when you get to about 4 months left if I remember correctly. If there is still time left on the line and you cancel you will have to pay a termination fee.

No you do not need a credit card, but you do have to go through a credit check. Just need your ID.
