Question on dealer plans. - General Questions and Answers

Was looking for this all morning and couldn't find any information, so I thought I'd ask around here. I just got a new job recently where I'll be able to get a free phone and sign up for dealer plans with any of the major carriers. Where I'm at at&t would be my best bet service wise but I was curious if you have to do the same standard credit check and deposit as normal if you're on a dealer plan. I've worked in an at&t call center before and know how ridiculous they get.
Any answers would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Bump. Anyone have experience with this?

Not that I am aware of. I didnt have to do any of that for my dealer plan with ATT but that was years ago so not sure if the policy had changed.

Cool. Would be awesome to set up without some crazy deposit. Hope that's still the case. Should find out for sure in a month or so.

AT&T Upgrade Question

I just received a letter in the mail from AT&T stateing that they would be adding "mobile to any mobile calling" to my messaging plan at no additional cost. Now, my question is, since they are changing my plan without my consent, am I able to get out of my two year contract without playing the ETF? I apologize if this has already been discussed, just provide the link.

No they are giving you an additional service for free.

I figured I was wishful thinking...
Though if the Nexus Prime is everything is "supposed" to be, I might have to break contract for it...

[Q] Insurance claim

Ok i made a loss claim on my sgs4g on tmobile after three days of not having a phone and wondering where the hell it was. That said, i have since recieved my insurance replacement. Today I was cleaning out my car (a weekly ritual) and found it beneath the passenger seat. My question is simply what do i do with it? It is a gsm phone so no blacklisted esn, so can i sell it or give it to a less fortunate friend to use? What are my options?

You should ring your insurance company and ask them what to do. They may say to just forget it, but they may want you to send it back to your provider. Either way you've done the right thing so there's no comeback. After all, you did get a replacement so they played their part. Now it's your turn

Just because it's a GSM phone doesn't mean it can't be blacklisted.
T-Mobile will blacklist the IMEI if the device is reported as lost or stolen.
As Archer has suggested, just phone up your insurance company and ask them, however, don't expect the phone to work for very long.
I had unlocked it, does that matter? btw im not sending it back.

If I were you I'd give it to a friend or use myself , try to change imei if possible. ( No idea how )
Some people really get lucky , I damn with I had sgs just lying around.

Sim unlocking is purely allowing the device to accept sims from another network.
IMEI changing is certainly illegal in the UK and I'm pretty sure it is in the US and Canada.

Sell it to someone overseas, these go for 150-165 in xda marketplace, so a blacklisted one for 50-80 is fair enough.. have a small party with the cash and forget about it!!
Pm me because I'm overseas

[Q] Anyone get that $50 for that One S Survey?

Pretty much what the title says.
A few weeks ago, I (and whoever else) got the chance to take a survey with a $50 payout.
I completed the 3 days of questions and all that good stuff. I didn't get a followup email or anything though.
I was just wondering of anyone has received this $50 or a followup email.
I'm going to call the company who hosted the survey. Ill followup with what they say.

Dang, I forgot about this, they never sent me the info on the follow up, so I never got the chance to participate. Bummer since I would have loved to give T-Mobile a piece of my mind, and gotten $50 for my trouble.
What kind of things were discussed?

Mainly just asking how what when where why on your One S. How did you hear about it? Are you satisfied? What made pick up the One S? If you were to market it to your friends what would you tell them?
A bunch of nonsense like that. It was a 3 day(5 questions per day).
I talked to support and supposedly it takes 4-6 weeks to get the $50 incentive. "If you don't get it by the end of July call back to get it situated"

I need help with some questions I have

Hey everyone I have a couple questions that I need answered if possible. My in-laws are moving to China in August. They have Verizon right now but are gonna put their account on hold since global costs to much. When they move over there they will be just getting SIM cards and new phones. My mother in law wants to know how much an iPhone would cost her there? I'm pretty sure she doesn't want any other phone Lol. We googled about how much in China it would cost, but couldn't find any good info. I know I could just Google everything ya ya I know this Lol. I just know this is a great place to ask questions about phone stuff. My father in law will have an android phone, not sure which one just yet.....I'm basically asking someone who has had to do this before or knows about any of this. Or if there are smarter options for them that is the cheapest bet or whatever, that would be great. I'd really appreciate it if someone could take a couple mins to help me out. It would be a huge blessing....thanks!!!

It's not a option to buy a unlocked phone here, and use a Sim card from there?

Ya I'm not sure. I think she told me she can use her iPhone there. It just needs to be unlocked or something. That's why I'm asking about all of this lol

Being that she is on Verizon here in the states, she can't unlock her current phone... Verizon and Sprint are on CDMA networks, the phone on these networks can't be unlocked... Now At&t and T-Mobile, they can... Any GSM network phone can be unlocked... At&t well unlock your phone, if you want it to be unlocked after your contracts up... I'm sure their not tech savvy, even with a unlocked phone, there's some tweaking you got to do, to the settings to get everything to work on any particular carrier... So you might have to help them with that, if they get a unlocked phone... Maybe what you might want to do is, figure out what carrier their thinking of using there, then search for phones on eBay, Amazon, and other smartphone selling websites...

[Q] Can I sell a subsidized phone, without fees from carrier?

Just wanting to know if anyone has sold a new phone you got a subsidized price on. I currently have a S4 and want to sell it, will ATT give me a problem when I add another device to my account that is not a S4? Thanks!
This forum has some questions and answers related to your question: slickdeals.net/f/3732040-verizon-phone-upgrade-can-i-sell-the-subsidized-phone-for-a-profit
Still not clear, but thank you. I will be making a profit from the sale of the phone. I'm worried that when I purchase a new phone, and activate it with ATT I will be flagged since its not the phone I originally purchased. Anyone with anymore insight care to chime in?
I dont think it should be a problem just tell them you bought another phone to use whe you go abroad. As long as you still pay your bill should be fine
