r/verizon on Reddit: iPhone 8 Plus losing access to network?
November 7, 2023 -
Hello
I'm on a family plan, and my parents were at a Verizon affiliate store getting a phone serviced. The rep mentioned that my device (iPhone 8 Plus) will "lose access to the network very shortly" and that they should discuss an upgrade option.
Have I missed something? I can't seem to find any info or announcements about this, and I'm calling BS.

r/verizon on Reddit: iPhone 16 trade-in deal: credit prospects for trading in an iPhone 8?
October 23, 2024 -
I just got a new iPhone 16, after five years of using a deteriorating (but functional) iPhone 8. I’m realizing that I could have taken advantage of the trade-in credit through Verizon if we update to a more expensive plan. I understand how the credit works (before anyone says ACTUALLY IT DOESN’T SAVE YOU MONEY), so for the sake of this post, suppose I want a trade-in credit.
What sort of credit can I get for trading in my iPhone 8, assuming it passes muster at the Apple Store? Is the $830 credit the maximum, since it reflects what you get if you trade a 15 for a 16? Can anyone point to anything on the Verizon website detailing whether different phones yield different trade-in credits?
For reference, Apple’s trade in credit would get me $40.

The iPhone 8 would need to be one of the devices that qualify for the trade-in promotion, and most of the time, the $830 payment over 36 months is available to folks on Unlimited Plus or Unlimited Ultimate, but your promotion may vary. The most important thing to remember when taking advantage of a trade-in promotion is that you have to maintain that level of service for the duration of your agreement. If at some point it becomes difficult to pay or you decide to change your phone service the balance on the device will be due This, of course would be your remaining balance.

depends on national offer (usually $830 on mid-high tier plan), or if you have a loyalty offer, I've seen them for $730, $830, up to $1000 off.
