iPhone 4 Trade-in...

[iphone_guy]

I have an AT&T 16GB iPhone 4.  What I want to do is trade it in for a Verizon iPhone 4 and have it added to my Brother's Verizon account.  Will I get credit on my trade in towards the cost of the Verizon iPhone?i

You will get a gift card to spend at Verizon how you please

Ok, so could I turn around and use it toward the cost of the Verizon iPhone?

Don't switch Verizon is not any better the the rest. Service is bad and system is the pits even here in Hawaii. I made a big mistake getting a i phone 4 from Verizon. No customers service. Sent them a e mail yesterday they wrote back saying i used bad word like their service s...s and bs. May buy out my contract just to get away from their very bad service and systems. The sales people sell you a phone and never answer any calls to them. Think again before jumping to Verizon

If you used colorful words in your email I am sure this did not help the situation....  I know this does change your situation but my experience has been a good experiance, reception has been the best I has compared to others and as for CS, I had Sprint before Verizon for almost 10 years and I can say service and CS couldn't be worse.

Only thing I would guess the reception issue has to be with your area and sorry to hear this because this doesnt seem to be the experiance of the masses..

Hello Brian Oates,

It is always an exciting time when we are considered to become the new wireless service provider for a potential customer. The iPhone is one of my favorite devices, of which I am a proud owner of. In reference to your trade-in inquiry, soupcannon is correct. If you agree to the amount of the trade-in for the iPhone, would will receive a Verizon Wireless branded gift card for the value stated. You can also trade in multiple devices from a variety of manufacturers and carriers for additional gift cards. The link to have your device appraised is noted below.

The process is very easy to complete online. Prior to sending in your device, I encourage that you deactivate service on the iPhone and erase all personal information from the device memory. Keep in mind that in addition to cell phones,we also accept tablet computers and netbooks. Once you accept the appraisal amount then the device must be sent to us, using the prepaid postage that we will send to you, within 30 days of the appraisal date. As far as the gift card is concerned, below are a few facts about the gift card that I think that you will find helpful.

• Verizon Wireless branded Gift Card should arrive within two weeks from the time the device is received. Total length of Trade-In process from submission to VZW Gift Card receipt is approximately three - four weeks.
• The VZW Gift Card is transferable and can be redeemed at Verizon Wireless owned and operated retail locations, for online purchases at www.verizonwireless.com or to pay a Verizon Wireless bill.
• VZW Gift Card will never expire.

Once you have received the gift card, you can use it to buy a Verizon Wireless iPhone 4 or iPhone 4S. Here is a link to the iPhone for your review.

If you are interested in my opinion then  I like the black iPhone 4S! It goes with most outfits and my car, which is also black. The white one is nice but the fingerprints shows more. I understand that I may have given quite a bit of information on this posting but it is very important to us that you have all the information needed to make an informed decision. We look forward to being your new wireless service provider.

Thank you...

I bought an Iphone 4 in September 2011 and received a trade in e-mail on 9/21/11 stating within 3 weeks I would receive a $100 Verizon Wireless Gift Card. I have received nothing from Verizon as of 1/6/12 and I am totally dissatisfied with them. BOOOOOOO DO NOT SHOP OR USE VERIZON!

I am actually surprised because I never knew that Verizon accepted devices from other carriers for Trade-In, I was under impression they only did this for other Verizon devices..

Something to note away...
