Best Buy has dropped the Infuse price to $149. I went in today and got my $50 dollar credit. Don't wait, as the refund can only be obtained within the return period.

It may be $129 tomorrow (Memorial Day) on Amazon for upgrades. Maybe cheaper for new customers. Check it tomorrow. If it is $129, I will probably pull the trigger.

I did the same thing but they are offering new lines and new customers the infuse for $99 so I called and complained. They ended up giving me a $100 credit on my bill so I basically paid $99...

i got mine from best buy on friday for $130 on an upgrade. i knew they price matched so i went in thinking i could get it that day for $179 for matching amazons price and not have to wait for shipping but they guy started checking around on his own and told me about the walmart price and hooked me up with that.
now i'm just riding out the return period waiting to see if they'll announce the release of the gs2 before the time runs out.

Where do you see the $99 for a new two year? Did you speak to any customer service rep?
I want to know if this 100 adjustment worked for more that one person and what was said and what kind of rep/dept it was

As a new customer for AT&T you are able to use an online promotion that takes $100 off almost any phone as long as you order online. I tried it for the Infuse and it works, but since we're already customers we don't have access to any $100 off promotion. I didn't buy my phone at AT&T so I can't try getting $100 back.

So I called them today to complain about feeling as though I was "slapped in the face" as a loyal customer (been with bellsouth/ATT wireless since 1997). After a little interrogation and some hemming & hawing she gave me the $100 credit (105.42 to be exact). This phone rocks pretty hard with a $100 price tag...lol. I'm glad more of you have called and done the same thing. While I understand the importance of marketing to obtain new business, current customers should not be left out in the cold. ;-)

Spoke to two reps this morning both said no. One regular rep, another was the online rep. The online rep said I should just return my current unused Infuse, cancel the order and line, and re-order a new one for the $99 price since I'm under my 30 days. Made an note of it as well.
I'd loose the activation fee and have to pay another. Any idea's?

Ask for the retention dept, be adamant about the online price and tell them you want the credit. When I called I told them my brother just order the same phone online and got it for 99, the Rep said she couldn't do anything so I asked for a supervisor. He is the one that authorized the credit. Trust me if it comes down to losing a contracted $79 month customer over a $100 credit they will give you a "one time courtesy" credit. You just need to be persistent...

Where was the free thunderbolt being offered from on memorial day? It wouldn't be from amazon. Retsilers don't give better temporary discounts within the return period of an existing discount. It wouldn't make any since to have to deal with all the returns/re-purchases fromthe $129.00 buyers.... could you possibly post a link to the tweet please????
Thanks in advance..... I would jump on a free thunderbolt for at least two of my lines, and save another two for late this year/early next year for when the mobile technology starts to temporarily peak out again

If you're in the USA, Target online has it for $99. And I believe Costco has it for a good price as well. There's some threads about it in the forum somewhere.

Guys, if you were on the fence about buying, at full price, an Infuse, AT&T is listing them for $450 online and in-store. That means stores like Best Buy have to sell them the same price through their price-matching policy.
Best buy will only price match if they are selling it for that price at an AT&T store. If it's an online only deal they won't match it.

Are you kidding me? I did post in the General forum that i dropped my phone a couple of days ago and ask any feedbacks from anyone who dropped their phone and fixed it. But everyone told me that if i try fixing it, its best to get a new one. Thats why I said 100 cause i know much it cost to fix it. If i just add another line to my plan it wont be more then trying to fix it.

Verizon didn't really tell anyone (besides a press release) so it's a surprise for many folks once they decide to upgrade. I'm thinking it's pointless but try your luck.

You might have a decent shot at getting it waived since you weren't made aware of it at the Amazon showroom--all depends on the CSR you speak to.
Use the "valued customer" card along with your monthly "loyalty" charges. Complain nicely and maybe it'll work. What do you have to loose except the time wasted on the call?
I called to protest the fee and they gave me a month's free service. Which for me is triple the crazy upgrade fee in the first place. If the first rep doesn't give it to you, call a couple more times.
Good luck.
If you read the contract paperwork you probably signed without reading...it tells you that you will have an upgrade fee.

Other US carriers already have an upgrade fee if I'm not mistaken so this isn't a Verizon only thing. This doesn't make me any happier knowing that money doesn't net a return nor directly improve service in my area.

There's an upgrade fee if you don't buy the device at a Verizon retailer. They give you a $30 discount in stores and online, they just want your business. If you diddint get your device directly from Verizon, you loose the discount.

This isn't true since I ordered online on verizon's site and they didn't give me a discount, I even tried to get it wavered by talking to reps on the phone but they just said its mandatory.
The only way you won't pay for an upgrade fee without having to complain is if you have a business account. I upgraded to get the S3 and my total didn't include the upgrade fee and the rep at the store said that business accounts are immune to the fee
Try third party retailers like wirefly.com
Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2
I called on Fri. to upgrade from a Droid X to S3, not on a business plan, and while they did mention the $30 activation fee they waived it without me even asking.
Also for people looking to upgrade at subsidized price and keep unlimited data, vz reps are definitely still allowing it as I was able to do this on Fri.
