My kids and I are on a FamilyTalk plan. I?m not eligible for an upgrade for iPhone 3G S but one of my kids is upgrade ready. Can I swap lines and take his upgrade eligibility on the 19th? Will I need to start a new two-year service agreement?

Yes, you can rearrange your account to take advantage of your child?s upgrade eligibility ? and yes, you will need to sign a new 2-year service agreement.

separate accounts

i have a similar question. i have a work phone(iphone 3g). and my family on a separate account has an upgrade. can i use one of their upgrades and use it on my separate work account. if i can, is it as simple as switching sim cards. thanks

I think the 5th question in that FAQ list is hilarious:

My kids and I are on a FamilyTalk plan. I'm not eligible for an upgrade for iPhone 3G S but one of my kids is upgrade ready. Can I swap lines and take his upgrade eligibility on the 19th? Will I need to start a new two-year service agreement?


Rephrase: Can I take my kid's eligibility and use it for myself and not tell him/her about it?
