im trying to understand how it works. It says u can upgrade after 60% of the phone is paid off so do u then stop having to pay off the 1st phone?
Correct. But you have to turn it your old phone and it has to be in decent condition.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

so what is the definition of decent condition. If it has a cracked screen i assume that is not decent condition correct?

Seems like it is.
Save $600 over 2 years. That's more than the value of a phone subsidy and you have the early upgrade option after 14 months.

Also, you keep the edge discount of $25 per line even after your phone is paid off.

True, but a lot of people don't end up upgrading the date they are eligible.

Not all lines have to be edge.  However, you have to be on a more everything plan.

Hmm. I wonder if it's time to ditch unlimited data?
Unlimited is always unlimited (until they throttle you, of course).

I can't be held down with tiered data.

It's the idea of unlimited that has no boundaries. I like that.

And for Nov, this is the promo, which I can gain
http://www.verizonwireless.com/news/article/2014/10/more-data-and-port-in-credits-for-verizon-customers.html
http://www.engadget.com/2014/10/31/atandt-and-verizon-are-upping-bandwidth-on-select-data-plans/

And sure enough, I looked into my acct today, and switched from the 8GB/$90 plan to the 10GB/$80 plan.

Looks like they removed the 6/8/12 GB plans

Free Verizon Msg: Verizon appreciates your loyalty. You are currently on the $60/3GB plan. You can now get an extra 3GB of data per month for the same price you pay now. There's no change to your voice plan or contract extension. Would you like to move to this new plan? If so, reply YES.

$60 is including talk and text, or only data charge?

It's the more everything plan. $40 per line for smartphones and then $60 for 6 GB now.
