I recently came to Verizon after moving to the US to start a plan. I was told I could trade in my iPhone 11 and would be getting 800$ for the trade-in. My bill per month was supposed to be 90$ but I'm currently paying over 140$ a month. I never got a trade-in email or confirmation. This was on January 6th, 2022 when I came in to get my new phone and activate my Verizon account. I'm extremely upset because my husband and I currently just moved back from being in the Military and feel like I've been misled and Sc*mmed by Verizon. Now I called multiple times and they said the credit would be put onto my account within 1-3 months or billing cycles BUT I did not get any confirmation about my device trade-in. Did Verizon steal my old phone and is making me pay 150$ a month for a new phone that I was told was going to be given an 800$ credit? What do I do because I'm completely frustrated and was told lies pretty much? If the issue isn't resolved and I have to continue to pay 150$ every month for one phone I'm going to be leaving Verizon permanently after it is paid off.

kml20, allow me to be one of the first to welcome you back to the states. Military life is not an easy one and I hope that you are remaining safe. Trade-In promotions may indeed take up to 3 bill cycles to apply to an account however, I would have expected you to receive the trade-in Submission ID via email. Did you visit the Trade-In website to submit the trade? If not, this would be completed at https://www.verizon.com/trade-in/. This would trigger the return shipping envelopes so you may return those phones to us.
