12 Month Device Payment Plan

Hi All,
There is a Best Buy Department Store closer to my area which would be more convinient that going to the nearest Verizon Wireless Store.
Will i be able to go the VZW section in the BB store and ask if i can paticipate in the 12 Month Paymen Plan option for a new phone at retail price? Being a Authorized Retailer i would think so but just want to be sure.
Thanks.

Unfortunately, people just cannot come up with a cost greater than $99-$199 for the new devices. They elect to lose plan perks etc. to get the newer phones. You can buy some place else but it does not change the fact that the costs for the device may be lower but the reseller will then remove your previous plan perks like unlimited data. Because the system they use to go into Verizon's service will only allow them to do just so much.
Additionally when paying less for these new phones the retailer like Amazon, Best Buy and Walmart's requires you to enter into a buying agreement with them in addition to Verizon's policies. Not a good deal.
In purchasing from Verizon you enter into a contract for a greatly reduced price, but its a 24 month contract you are locked into. The price of the device normally does not change for full retail without a Buyer Beware since you don't really get a cheaper price, you get more woes when signing with the (Resellers)

Device Payment Plan Experience?

Has anyone had any experience with the Device Payment Plan which allows you to purchase a new device early without being eligible for any upgrade and pay for it monthly along with your plan over 12 months? I am considering it but am wondering if I really need to go to a store to do it or can a chat agent help me get a phone ordered or what? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

If this (http://support.verizonwireless.com/support/faqs/FeaturesandOptionalServices/device-installment-plan.html) is what you're talking about - I used it when it barely started (maybe two weeks or so after). It was a real pain at that time, as nobody knew how to process it, etc. It has to (as far as I know) be done in store, no other way (maybe CS can do it over the phone, but I haven't seen the option online).

Device Payment Plans Might Be Coming around the Corner!

According to what i read Via >> droid life Device payment plans might be Coming to Verizon! have a look @ the Link b33
http://www.droid-life.com/2013/04/12/verizon-will-introduce-a-device-payment-plan-similar-to-t-mobiles-in-the-near-future/

When i was Visiting the Verizon Store Yesterday and was asking about the Cost on a iPad 64 Gig they had this round sign Next to it that said in small print if Qualify you could get the iPad and Make $52.00 dollar payments a month and there was something else in there like 30.00 dollars for something but we didn't Qualify that's even being a Customer since 2002 so it Must be something big Like a Loan that Verizon is Doing if they Go in this Direction on there Devices And one's don't Qualify they might as well Walk out the Door because your only other Option is pay the Full Price or split the Payments if you Qualify for that..

Device payment plan

So i read online that if you grandfathered the unlimited data plan, you would be able to keep it and upgrade your phone by using the device payment plan. yknow the one where you pay the unsubsidized price of the phone in 12 installments and charging you $2 per installment. I went to several verizon stores asking about this and they all told me the same thing "i dont know what youre talking about but if you do upgrade your phone by paying the full price in installments, you will lose your unlimited data". After hearing that i asked several online specialist at verizon and they said i would be able to keep it. So what's the deal here? will i keep my data plan or lose it?

This is what many are told when they try to buy on the device payment plan. My local store even went so far as to say if I bought as I did at full price I would lose it as well. They said going from a 3G device to a 4 G device also was going to make me lose unlimited. You see verizon is using any means to get the unlimited data off the grandfathered customers.
You also tell them after you purchase to do a complete printout of your plan, this way you can check any changes that were done against your last invoice. Bring the invoice with you to compare.
By the way its the Edge program where you lose unlimited. Of course the store people are pushing that over the device payment plan.

The link above is just one of many that state you do not lose unlimited.

Device payment plan not explained very well

I was wondering if anybody has tried the device payment plan. My wife went to try to trade in her 64 gb iphone 4s on the new iphone 5 64gb and use the payment plan to pay off the balance. He looked at the account and told her it was no problem but after he went through the steps were denied. He said that our account was perfect and we only had one late payment in 2 years. He told me straight up he had no idea what was going on and that we were the first one they had tried to do at that store. He called COOS which has something to do with the payment plan and they told him we weren't approved because the system said so but could not offer an explanation, I don't think its a credit problem we both have pretty good credit. So he put in an Emil to somebody higher up for his district that is suppose to be able to let us know whats up. He told me that if they couldn't get me and my wife approved than the plan was going to be pretty much useless. He did say that it said something about an existing upgrade but looking at the account we cant upgrade till June and the contract was officially complete in October. The only thing I can come up with is that the payment plan is not useable if you are still under contract or the system is glitchy. Anyway does anybody have any success stories I would be intrested to know if you were still under contract or not.

I talked to a rep yesterday on the phone and it seems like your only allowed if your not under contract. I don't know if this is true there still seems to be some confusion but in my situation it makes since we're still under contract. If it is it would have been nice for that to be spelled out.
This isn't inline with what was stated in the press release. I copied the relevant text below:
Customers also have the option of purchasing a phone at full price at any point before their contract expires and beginning April 21, some devices will be available for purchase through the Verizon Wireless Device Payment Plan.

Maybe the "some devices" part doesn't include the iPhone 5.

When I commenced subscriptions for PhotoshopCC i was billed $19.99 per month. The advertised fee is now $9.99 per month for a single product. How do I change to the lower payment plan.?

Where are you seeing that? I still see Single App membership at US$19.99/month.
Creative Cloud free trial & plans : Adobe Creative Cloud
The only US$9.99/month offering is Photoshop+Lightroom.
So I guess you're asking to swap from the Photoshop Single App Plan to the Photography Plan (PS+LR)?

Monthly Payment Plan & lack of care!

I am in my mid 70's & I have been with bt for about 50 years for phone only. I have been on a monthly payment paln of varying amounts all under £30 a month. I thought I was on anytime call plan, however it was only weekemd calls. When BT restructured the prices of calling time and evening rates went up considerably, so do my bills. My last quarterly bill was £145 of which £91 was for calls to uk landlines £46 for line rental and £8 for other calls. BT called my and said my monthly payment plan payments were too low and they were putting them up to £79! I discovered when my last quarterly bill arrived that I was only getting weekend calls free. It is disappointing after being a customer for 50 years that when the customer service agent called me regarding my monthly payments that they didn't inform me why my bills were so high and suggest that they put me on anytime calls. However, they didn't and had a pensioner paying £60 a month more than necassary!!

I would agree that you should be on Anytime calls, and you should arrange that straight away if you haven't already done it. That should cost £22.45 a month plus any non-inclusive charges.
As to your monthly payments, it's not possible to say what you should be paying as that depends on how much of the £145 had not been covered by your credits. If you can post a bit more detail there might be some specific advice on that.
In general terms though, my view is that the way adjustments to the monthly DD work can be a bit of a swindle, and I'm currently pursuing this with BT. As well as posting more detail, have a look in MyBT > My bill > Manage your payments > Change regular payment > Change payment details > tick "Change the amount you want to pay". When you click on the current amount what does it say in the pop-up box?

Bought a tablet on device installment plan, can no longer bill equipment to account

I recently purchased an iPad mini and bought it on the device installment plan. Then found out that I can no longer bill equipment purchases to my account. I have a spotless payment history. I was planning on buying the iPhone 5 this week and billing it to the account so I could pay for it in January on the December bill (which would be due Jan 17 as my billing cycle closes on the 22nd). I billed an OtterBox (which I got for my iPhone 5, which I am keeping) and I billed an upgraded MiFi device (which I cancelled the online order and VZW put in a ticket to FedEx to have the shipment intercepted and returned to VZW). According to the tracking, VZW received the shipment on Nov 23rd) but VZW says that it has not been scanned in yet as of Nov 27th. I am trying to dispute the charge but have been told that it would be credited when it is scanned in. I don't know what barcode is scanned but FedEX assigned a new tracking number to return the shipment and VZW says that is unusual so I am hoping that they are not relying on the tracking barcode.
I am wondering if the device installment plan disqualifies a customer for billing equipment purchases to the account.

Iowacowboy, thanks for posting. An account cannot exceed $1000 combined bill to account and Device Installment Plan balance. (Bill to account maximum is $400 per account, per month for consumer lines). I hope this helps.^SP

Payment Plan for Upgrade Phones

I think Verizon should have a payment plan for new upgrade phones. I have been a long time Verizon customer and in years past when my plan would come up for a replacement phone I always choose one of the top phones and upgraded for about $50. In today's time, due to Technology, to upgrade to say an I Phone runs around $300 by the time you get tax (CA), new charger- home and car as well as a hands free device. To pay that Big amount the next month on my bill is the reason I am holding back getting one and I want the best because new phones are always coming out and we will have a better ones and the focus is everything going mobile. If I could split that total into 2 payments, it would be a lot easier for me and I would be at the store tomorrow buying one. I think Verizon should do this because they would increase their phones sales immediately. No Other Phone Company is doing this and they could pick up new customers from companies that do not offer this. First to the Marketplace to do this has BIG Value.
In this Economy, Verizon could create a way to increase their sales and a sense of Goodwill to help the consumer at the same time...Novel Idea!!!!!!

Pay for the phones and service up front or use a credit card (as SydneyK suggested) ...Verizon isn't going to finance the phone purchase. They are in the business of providing wireless service, not financing equipment purchases.
I can imagine prices would go up if they ever WERE to do this, since I'm sure there would be defaults that the rest of us would cover with increased rates. No, thanks...

My Apple ID is disable and I want to change my payment plan with another credit card

You might be able to re-enable your account via this page : http://appleid.apple.com, then 'reset your password'
You might then need to log out of your account on any iOS devices that you have by tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store on them and then logging back in so as to 'refresh' the account on them.
If that doesn't fix it then you might need to contact iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page
When it's enabled you can then follow the instructions on the HT1918 page that you posted from to change your payment method.

Installment plan/ payment plan without SSN

Dear community,
I am I'm the US with a. Visa and therefore do not possess a Social Security Number.
I could not find satisfactory info on the apple website, so I'm asking here.
Do you happen to know if there is a special payment plan to pay for a MacBook Pro ? A plan that would draw from my debit card every month, without me having to put a SSN to do it.
Thank you very much,
L

Yes

Problem joining the payment plan

Hello, I'm trying to join the payment plan to include the amount outstanding bill which according to the following shown on the website is possible to do
What you owe now. When you set up your Monthly Payment Plan we'll say if you need to pay some of what you owe first. We'll then divide the remaining amount by six, and add it to your monthly payment
However when I try to set it up online it won't allow me to do so, saying that the amount outstanding must be cleared first. To be quite honest I am not in a position to pay the amount outstanding but would be quite prepared to make an initial payment on a payment plan if only I could set it up. As I say it's not a case of won't pay rather than can't pay, please can someone advise, thank you

As you have already found out, you can not get onto an online payment plan if you already owe BT money. They want you to clear out standing debt first because you are effectively entering into a credit agreement with them.
If you are having problems meeting your present bills you would be better to contact the Options Team and see if you can set up a payment plan that will take into account the outstanding debt as part of the payment. Call them on 0800.800.030

Easy payment plan

Does anybody know if the apple shop or anywhere else does an easy payment plan (monthly payments)for the 3GS

Apple doesn't provide financing for purchases under £500. I don't know if O2 has any financing; most cell carriers are "financing" the phone as part of their normal plans; that's any an iPhone may, depending on the contract, may even have no up-front cost rather than costing £400-£500.
O2 lists three contracts that have no up-front cost for the 16GB iPhone here:
http://shop.o2.co.uk/promo/iphoneindex/PayMonthly/3GS/Black
That's probably all the financing you're likely to find other than a credit card or perhaps your local bank or credit union.

ISU Payment Plan

Hello,
Please share the link with exhaustive documenatioon on SAP standard ISU Payment Plan material . Also would like to know the difference between Payment Scheme and Payment plan for Australian Market.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Sunil S

Hi Sunil,
The major difference between payment plan and a payment scheme is that a payment plan is related to a finite number of open items to be payed on a e.g. monthly basis until the debt is payed finally. On the other hand, the validity period of a payment scheme is unrestricted.
Payment plan:
An agreement between the customer and the utility company, which determines the amount to be paid for each bill on agreed dates. The payment plan amount is not necessarily the bill amount. The difference amount between the bill amount and the payment plan amount is fixed and posted. The payment plan is not to be compared with the budget billing plan that is charged between two periodic bills.
Payment Scheme:
The payment scheme is a statistical budget billing procedure. Consumption billing amounts from previous and current billing periods are copied to the payment scheme and distributed evenly over the next billing period. The budget billing amount is determined partially from an extrapolation portion that reflects the expected consumption for the current billing period and partially from the copied consumption billings. It is not necessary to copy consumption billings to the payment scheme in order to use this procedure. If you do copy them, the bills are not paid directly by the customer but during the next billing period when the
payment scheme requests are paid. The payment scheme allows payments to be made in weekly, fortnightly, monthly, quarterly, and yearly cycles. The validity period of a payment scheme is unrestricted. This means that a payment scheme is not ended and another created when you create a periodic bill. Instead, the existing payment scheme is adjusted.
There is a cookbook payment scheme available in [http://service.sap.com/utilities] -> SAP for Utilities (product information) -> IS-U/CCS -> Billing&Invoicing -> Cookbooks&Guidelines.
Kind regards,
Fritz
