r/verizon on Reddit: How long will $800 trade in offer last?
February 6, 2022 -

Trying to time an upgrade by end of month. Does anyone know how long Verizon typically runs its 800 trade in offer for upgrading an existing line. If I recall, they dropped it to around half that amount before iPhone 14 launch and then put it back in around sept 20.

It'll probably drop soon if it hasn't already, then go back up around Black Friday. If you have a phone that's on the cusp of dropping to $400 max, like mine, don't wait too long.

r/verizon on Reddit: Thoughts on $800 trade-in promo?
January 11, 2024 -

I went to the store to upgrade from a S21 to a S23 after getting a bunch of texts over the last couple months about the promo. Guy was really nice, but the one thing about this promo is that I'd be locked into a plan that's $30 more a month. So over $100 a month. I thought there'd be options with the "select plans req'd" part. Regardless, I imagine that's how they make their money on giving away a new phone for one that has a trade-in value of $80 without the offer.

Anybody take advantage of this offer and has it been worth it? Thanks in advance for any input

just wait a week and pre-order the s24. deals should be better.

If it works out cheaper than staying on your current plan it's worth it. There will be new plans in three years and you'll eventually qualify for loyalty discounts

No one knows. Anyone that claims to know is lying to you. Promos can end at anytime and likely there will be new promos for the new phones.

There is always a promo at Verizon as long as you are willing to bend over.

Best option is iPhone upgrade thru Apple.

April 10, 2025 - I was just about to do this. At the very end it mentions $830 credit but after that says it will be appraised and up to blank will be taken off per month. It had NaN and not a number. Which is what NaN stands for. This prime is misleading and once you send your phone back it’s gone.

Verizon is telling me that if I trade in my old 4 year old iPhone XR I can get 800 dollars trade in credit toward iPhone 14 which means that I get this phone for free. Is this legitimate? Seems too good to be true.

r/verizon on Reddit: $800 Upgrade/Trade In Promo?
March 14, 2021 -

Hi All,

I have a couple lines on my account that have a targeted offer for $800 off an iPhone 13 with trade in and “any” unlimited plan.

When I go through to upgrade one of my lines it asks me to input my trade in device for the line - it is an iPhone 12 mini with zero damage. The system comes back and says I get $650 in trade in credit, not the $800. The line is on Play More Unlimited 5G UW.

I have another line with the same offer but with an iPhone XR on Start Unlimited. It also says it gets $650 in trade in, not $800.

Is there some kind of fine print in missing? Shouldn’t it qualify for the full $800? Are there only “select” that qualify for the $800 off?

EDIT: Thanks for all the responses, especially those that confirmed that the straight up $800 upgrade promo is valid. I tried it again this morning online during non-peak hours. I was able to process BOTH upgrades for the full $800 trade in credit on each line, reading in an iPhone XR and iPhone 12 mini for an iPhone 13 and iPhone 13 mini, respectively. I did the exact same steps as yesterday, but was getting $650 yesterday. There must be significant bugginess on the Verizon system surrounding this promotion.

That loyalty offer has been really buggy. I’d recommend calling into telesales and have them accept the offer so it’s remarked on the account. Supposedly it should adjust itself up to $800 when it’s received at warehouse. If it doesn’t, call in and care can fill out a promo form to correct it.

So much misinformation in this post. $800 off with trade for upgrades is a promo that exists. It is a loyalty offer that the system has to load into the account. The 13 mini is eligible for $800 off. Yes, it retails for $700. It still gets $800 off. Here's the promo info. You can trade in any phone newer than an iPhone 6, in good condition that turns on and has the activation lock off, and get the full $800 off.
