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.

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.

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)

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.

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...

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.?

The advertised fee is now $9.99 per month for a single product.
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?

Req for info on invoicing/Payment Plan on Purchase order

Hi guys,
The users in my company wants to see the invoice /payment plan on the PO printout if invoicing plan is utilized on the PO.anyone has any idea about invoicing plan.I would really appreciate your help.
thanks
Chris

Hi
Invoice plan unable you to spared payment for a PO line according to your needs.
For example: if you buy a machine you need to pay X amount on the contract signing, Y amount on the blueprints, the Z on delivery. When you use invoice plan you don't have to separate the lines in the PO as service lines or any other way and the Material price will be updated correctly
This means that the IV is not based on the GR and that the Goods receipt is non-valuated. (you need to set these indicators in the PO)
The valuation of the purchase order item will then take place at the time of invoice verification.
Settings in customizing are under:
Materials Management-> Purchasing -> Purchase Order -> Invoicing Plan
About the printing, I think that the standard PO print them but I'm not sure.
Good luck

When buying a MacBook on a payment plan, how much is required for a downpayment?

I'm going to buy a MacBook today (I haven't decided between the Air or the Pro yet) and im going to use the student payment plan (I'm still in highschool) and I was curious as to how much of a downpayment is required to walk away with the computer that same day? Or is there a downpayment required at all?

You would have to ask the business you are purchasing the mac from, or the creditor allowing you to use the payment plan. I'm sure it depends on how much the price is, among other things.

CJ48 Payment Planning

Dear Friend's
1) In CJ48 Tcode i am planning my Cash Outflow which is monthwise.
Also, payments are booked on project / wbs elements.
Considering above 2 inputs can i get any standard report which shows me following output,
Project/WBS Element Planned Payment Actual Payment made
2) Also i have few tcodes which is releated to payment planning, but i don't know what is the purpose of that & how it is to be used for reporting.
CJIB - Planned Payments ( Line Items )
CJIG - Payments ( Dispaly Documents )
S_ALR_87013591 - Payment Overview ( Summarization )
Can any one give the purpose these tcodes & how to use
3) Also other than above mention Tcodes if any other tcode is avail for reporting of payment planning & actual payments let me confirm
Sandeep N.Theurkar

Hi Sandeep,
The standard report you can use is CJIA which is a line item report showing planned and actual payment lines. Threre won't be different columns showing plan and actual values but the report will be in form of continuous line. You can sort, filter the plan/actual values based on their respective value type.
CJIB - Planned Payments ( Line Items ) : as the name shows only planned payment line items.
CJIG - Payments ( Dispaly Documents ): will not come handy as it shows individual 'payment documents'
S_ALR_87013591 - Payment Overview ( Summarization ): This is a summarization report showing payments for all projects that are summarization objects
with regards,
Ravi Shrivastav

If you have anyone on your team familiar with the IS-U migration tool EMIGALL, perhaps you could explore using the standard migration object BBP_EXT to accomplish this.

Thank you very much,
