Actually, T-Mobile started doing that since last year with jump on demand. Do your research before calling people names.

The only way it's worth it is if you are not upgrading your next phone for 2 years. Then you take full advantage of the $650 credit (even though trading your current iPhone 6). If you decide to upgrade in one year, you only take half of the full credit.

What's "really" free here?

Nitro Junkie - September 10, 2016 at 12:02am

Ya doesn't it say the credits start after 2-3 billing cycles? So that probably means you have to cover the first few payments? They always make it too confusing.

Called Att and they have no clue what I'm talking about

I went into the store today and got my 256gb black iPhone on order and my $650 trade in value. They are also doing a free iPad mini 2- have to pay for monthly LTE service.

What if devices are only 50% paid off (such as my 6s) will have to look into it for Verizon

Butterspider - September 9, 2016 at 5:35pm

Then you can't do the deal.

Nitro Junkie - September 9, 2016 at 11:53pm

I think it's only for new customers or if your device is paid off already, not if you're still on the Verizon edge program and making payments. If you're coming from AT&T to Verizon or the other way, you would still have to pay off your device if you're still making payments. It's always in their favor somehow.
