Am i elidgable for an upgrade?

i bought my iphone off of ebay before may 27. I want to buy the new iphone 3g and sign a contract. My problem is i bought my iphone off of ebay as a unlocked unit, and already have a contact for my perl cell phone (which expires in more than a month). My question is I do own a iphone, do i still qualify for the upgrade? I've only been using the iphone but stupidly i never registered it. Whats killing me now is that i dropped the iphone and broke the digitizer so the entire phone no longer works and i currently have no phone and a month plus before i can be "elidgeable" according to cingular for the iphone 3g.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated as i really really loved my iphone, but cannot afford the 499 price.

Owning a first generation iPhone is not the only criteria required to qualify for AT&T's upgrade or subsidized pricing on the iPhone 3G.
A first generation iPhone must also be activated with AT&T which requires the $20/mo unlimited data plan.
If your existing contract with AT&T expires in a month, you should qualify for upgrade pricing on a new phone now. Or you don't qualify for upgrade pricing on a new phone for another 30 days?
You can purchase a cheap gophone in the interim to place and receive calls until you do qualify for upgrade pricing on a new phone including for the iPhone 3G.
The mere fact of owning an phone - especially an unlocked iPhone that was not activated with AT&T does not make you upgrade eligible.

  • How can I upgrade my iCloud account's storage but pay for the upgrade with another Apple ID?

    I want to upgrade my iCloud account so that I can back-up my iPhone, however I would like to pay for the upgrade using a different Apple ID than the Apple ID associated with my iCloud account. I can not figure out how to do this, when I hit buy after selecting my desired plan it wants be the buy the upgrade with the Apple ID my iCloud account uses. Please help!

    I don't think that's possible.  (If you're trying to get it on another credit card, one option would be to purchase an iTunes gift card with it and redeem it to create an iTunes store credit.  Storage upgrades will first charge your iTunes store credit before charging your card.)

  • Memory modules can we use for RAM upgrade of HP Pavilion dv5-1198de??

    What memory modules can we use for RAM upgrade of HP Pavilion dv5-1198de??
    Max RAM?  Vista?  Windows 7?

    I can't find a dv5-1198de but I did find a dv5-1198er which should be similiar. It states up to 8 gb of ram. HERE
    I would try www.Crucial.com for suggested memory ,you can use their Scanner Tool to let it detect what you have and what you can upgrade/replace with.

    My 16gb iPhone 4S keep tell me that my storage is almost full and I don't have enough space for any upgrades. I don't have any music or videos on my phone. I deleted all old emails, texts, contacts and apps but still nothing. When I check my settings, I noticed that my Instagram is at 732mb and it keeps rising. Now it's at 814mb. Please help!!!!!

    What is the precise wording of the message that is occurring?
    Are  you attempting to update via iTunes on a computer or over the air on the device?
    How much free space is actually on the device?
    If updating via iTunes on the computer, how much free space on the computer?

  • IPhoto asks for an upgrade of Aperture and otherwise won't open

    After upgrade to Maverick, iPhoto asks for an upgrade of Aperture (which I don't have and never had), and otherwise won't open. If I click "ok",  the Applications store opens and asks me to BUY Aperture (69,99 EUR).
    There must be a bug in iPhoto 11 after the upgrade to Maverick..?

    I can only guess at a couple of solutions:
    #1
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
    2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
    User/Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder (Snow Leopard and Earlier).
    or with Lion and Mt. Lion delete the contents the User/Library/Containers/com.apple.iPhoto/
    Data/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder.
    3 - reboot, launch iPhoto and try again.
    NOTE: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Home/Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and press the Return key - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
    If you're running Mavericks, 10.9,  go to your Home folder and use the View ➙ Show View Options menu to bring the this window:
    where you can check the Show Library Folder checkbox.
    #2 
    1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    2 - Run Option #4, Rebuild Database, followed by Option #1 if needed.

  • TS1702 I tried to download the upgrade, now it won't install and I can not access my documents. It said Vi did not have enough space for the upgrade so I made room but still no luck.

    I tried to download the upgrade, now it won't install and I can not access my documents. It said Vi did not have enough space for the upgrade so I made room but still no luck. If I delete the ap and reinstall I will lose my stuff. Any ideas? It won't open so I can email it to myself.

    What upgrade are you trying to install? Your profile shows iOS 5.1.1, which is the current max iOS.

  • Using another number for an upgrade for a phone online

    Okay, so I'd like to use another phone number in my plan to get an upgrade online. So does anyone know if that is possible and how I could do that. Thanks.

    Thanks, Rignu217 and lewisr13, for your replies.
    Hello JBerg,
    I'm glad to hear you'll be taking advantage of an alternate upgrade on your lines.  As previously mentioned, this can be done directly from My Verizon, where you can compare up to five devices and decide which device is perfect for you. Keep in mind you'll first select the line that is eligible for an upgrade.  Once this is done you will get an option to choose the line where the device will be activated. I'm sure you'll find this information useful. Thanks for being part of Verizon Wireless.

  • Can you trade in your iphone5 for the iphone 6 if you are not eligible for an upgrade?

    I want to take advantage of the iphone trade in offer Verizon is offering, can I do this if I am not eligible for an upgrade yet?

    No.
    Either wait it out for your upgrade time, or switch to a Verizon Edge plan (you have to turn in your iPhone 5 in lieu of ETF fees).
    With Edge, you don't get anything in return for your phone, except out of your current contract.

  • I have CS2 and am interested in buying CS4,or CS5, or CS5.5 used. Will my serial number from my CS2 work for an upgrade version?

    Like to own hard copy CS at the cheapest possible price.
    CS2 will not work with Lion.
    I'm looking at used CS4 upgrade discs that are for sale.
    Will my serial number from my CS2 work for the upgrade?

    There are no upgrade paths from CS2.
    If you purchased used software you're pretty much on your own. Much of what is sold on places like eBay or Craigs List doesn't have valid licenses. Caveat emptor.

  • HT4528 I am due for an upgrade on 5/23 and I wanted to find out - can I bring my old iphone 4 to the apple store and get a new iphone 5 through the apple store instead of verizon?  Will it cost the same to get the phone as through Verizon?

    I am due for an upgrade on 5/23 and I am trying to find out if I can get my phone through the Apple store?  I have an iphone 4 and am hoping to upgrade to a iphone5.  Just want to make sure if the price is the same as if I went to a Verizon store to upgrad. 

    I don't believe they were looking for a trade in, they are due for a subsidized Verizon upgrade. I think the bringing the iPhone 4 was for setting it up and transferring as Verizon does not require you to swap your previous phone for an upgrade.

  • URGENT!!! is "DDIM" Data class valid for the upgrade in BI 7.0

    Hello,
    We're working on the prepare steps before the PREPARE upgrade phase.
    One of these steps is the rename of the Infocube data classes which don't follow the new naming convention.
    We have all infocubes defined in DDIM and DFACT data classes.
    Could someone tell me if I have to rename the DDIM data class in a new one for the upgrade?
    Many thanks in advance

    That's only valid for custom data classes.
    DDIM & DFACT are SAP delivered and are still valid.

  • I can not upgrade from version 9.1.5 to 9.2.3 on my IMAC free?? I have to pay for this upgrade?

    I can not upgrade from version 9.1.5 to 9.2.3 on my IMAC free?? I have to pay for this upgrade?

    That is a free update (not an upgrade) what happens when you try? How are you trying to update? did your Mac come with restore disks or did you download software form teh App Store? Have you logged onto the App store and checked purchased software for updates?

  • I have an iphone4 and that I have had for four years and they are saying that I am not eligible for an upgrade until the end of July 2015. That is four years and 3 months after I purchased this phone. "Customer service" said I had an upgrade at the end of

    I have an iphone4 and that I have had for four years and they are saying that I am not eligible for an upgrade until the end of July 2015. That is four years and 3 months after I purchased this phone. "Customer service" said I had an upgrade at the end of July 2013, which I did not. She said that in the system my husband took an upgrade July 29th 2013. He didn't even have a Verizon phone, he had a work phone with T-mobile. I have asked what device he supposedly upgraded to since no phones have been activated and we all still have our same phones and numbers. Remember at the time, said husband had a work phone with T-mobile. I still have the very same phone as do all of the rest of my family members. No one has upgraded. I spoke with "customer service" for more than a half an hour today, Char promised me that her supervisor (Emily) would call me back by 7:30 tonight to clear up this problem. Well guess what? No call back so where should I go from here? Any advice or help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your help.

    someone swapped upgrades.  Phone could have been sold For quick cash.
