Termination Fee Reimbursement?
Walked into a VZW retailer (non-corporate) store, they said if I sign up at the end of the month and port my number over I can receive a reimbursement of $150 for my termination fee with Nextel. Some sort of customer appreciation day deal.
Has anyone hear of this? I went into a corporate store and they said they never heard of such a thing.
My boss bought a set of stores from another indirect agent. Inturn, he also got a bunch of customers saying the previous owner "promised thier ETF was waived" and he had to shell out a whole bunch of $$$ as the previous onwer never paid any of the customers ETFs.
That sounds sketchy dude, beware.
IF it were me, I'd make them give me a great deal on a phone.. say IF a phone were $150 at the 2-year price.. better ring up free 🙂 that's what im talkin about. GET paid up front!
Make them "pay for it" upfront. They would still get residuals. But still, Gizmo? Ehhh I dont know... 😕
Eiether get it upfront off the price of the phone or find a nother (probly more reputable) retailer.
I deal with this all the time when an indirect agent gives "free activation". It may be written on the contract but that doesn't matter since new lines are charged activation.
