Annual Upgraders SOL on online Feb 3 pre-order???
- I am eligible for an Annual Upgrade, which I believe is only available via CSR and not via My Verizon.
Can anybody in the know verify? Any body? Bueller??????01-27-2011 03:25 PMLike 0 - You also have the ability to do your annual upgrade at myverizon online. You should not have any problems pre-ordering your device.01-27-2011 03:34 PMLike 0
- I am logged on to my account. The only upgrade I see is for 8/11 which is my 2-year upgrade date. Do I have to go throught the actual upgrade process to see the Annual Update eligibility date?01-27-2011 03:40 PMLike 0

Try here. This is from Apples website. My account shows the 199-299 price, but my wife is the full retail price.
There's a link to check your Verizon upgrade.Last edited by LooNTooNs; 01-27-2011 at 04:16 PM.

- Verizon normally charges $20 for you to do an annual upgrade. Maybe they waived it in the past. Sometimes they waive it if you order online.01-28-2011 06:52 AMLike 0
- I just called Verizon and asked about my annual upgrade and they explained to me that they stopped annual upgrades on the 16th. I think it is funny how drastic the info is from one rep to another. Any suggestions on how I should proceed. I am eligible for my 20 month on 5/08/11. I have 3 lines all eligible at that time. It doesnt show an annual upgrade on my verizon either. The funny thing is my buddy went last weekend (1/22/2011) and got his annual upgrade. WTF???? I have been a VZW cusomer since 2000 and never been late on a bill or anything. I am even willing to wait until after launch (almost prefer so I can see how the bugs are) to get the phone. Just not till MAY!!!01-28-2011 06:53 AMLike 0

However, you are only eligible for Annual upgrade if you are on the Family Share 1400 Minute (or higher) plan and you've been on it for a specified period of time (I believe it's in the 3-6 month range -- they do that so you can't switch to the eligible plan when you're eligible for the Annual Upgrade then switch back after upgrading). Which Family Plan are you on?01-28-2011 09:22 AMLike 0 - From what I understand, VZW stopped letting people be eligible from Annual Upgrades on all new contracts effective 1/16/11. However, just like NE2, you should be grandfathered in to the Annual Upgrade one more time.

It says eligible in September, but a rep told me over the phone about a month ago the annual upgrade was January 10th. How does the annual upgrade work on the MyVerizon website? Even when I click on "upgrade" the next page just says "upgrade at full price" on all three lines. Anybody provide any help there?
EDIT: I may have answered my own question. Buried in a VZW thread on their support forums, one of the mods explains that the upgrade button in My Verizon doesn't appear until the billing cycle is complete for the 12th month...in my case, February 4th! Let me tell you about how pissed I'm going to be if they run through all their pre-order stock on Feb. 3rd...Last edited by Deadbolt; 01-28-2011 at 12:11 PM.
