I've got that beat as both of mine came with paperwork that says the ETF is $0.

I guess I tied you cause my ETF is 0 dollars as well. Lmfao, I wanna see could I cancel and escape these fees.
Mine also says $0. Wait wait wait...so does this mean we can cancel whenever for free and keep the phone?
Both of mine say "Early Termination Fee: $0" too.
Mine's 0 as well. There was a thread about this over at AndroidCentral. I'd bet the 0$ ETF folks renewed their unlimited.
I will have to check mine now.

Did you steal the upgrade from a dumb phone? If so, their system gets confused. If you got a smartphone, your ETF is double that. I saw it when I got the letter and called to confirm.

Not sure about the unlimited aspect as only one of mine had GF unlimited on it. The other line had a regular 2GB plan.
No have had a smart phone since I was 13. I'm 25 now lol. I kept my unlimited data hence the preorder. I'm pretty salty that some of you have a 0 dollar etf. Verizon will honor this it's a contractual agreement so don't be bullied when they try to push the 350 etf. Anyways your etf goes down like 13 dollars or something every month. So 6 months down the road I will toss this phone out and get something new.

I received updated confirmations via snail mail today and both lines now state an ETF of $350. I wonder how that all plays out since I also have confirmations that state it's $0. Since I'm not planning on leaving VZW at the moment it's sort of moot.
Androidpolice released a report stating that all smartphones at or under the price of $200 are 50% off until June 30. This includes the galaxy s4 and s4 active but requires a 2 year contract. Should work for upgrades too but I haven't gotten a chance to check it. If you've been on the fence about getting a new phone now is a good time to check this deal out. Here is the link to the androidpolice article.

Just snagged an Active. F'n taxes brought it up to $147 but no activation fee made me feel better.
ordered a s4 and it came out to be 363 with tax and overnight shipping. Will cancel the line once I get the phone
You might want to read thru the terms you agreed to when ordering the device. If you cancel the line you used to get the phone you are subject to an early term fee and/or an equipment fee if canceled in the first 6 months. If you take advantage of the 14/30 day return period and do not return the device they can and will charge your account for the full cost of the device.

Was this the price on a month to month basis with no contract?
I'm assuming this wouldn't work for the 32gb S4 since it's more than 200 dollars.

I upgraded a line and traded an old phone in to get $100 literally one day before this sale went live. I had to call yesterday and ask for credit because why would anyone give away an old phone when you can get the same discount online without doing that. Anyways all they could do is give me $100 credit on my next bill which was nice. Overall great deal
There's super-long thread on SlickDeals about this deal. Apparently you can get 50% certain smartphones using a month-to-month option. Basically, you can get 50% the full price of the phone.
Details from the "Wiki" portion of this deal:
How to buy a non-commitment i.e. no contract device from ATT
Your best bet is going to the local store for pickup or ordering with overnight shipping. I don't think ATT is going to ship these devices on monday.
Select month-to-month.
Online
Cancel the line AFTER you get shipping confirmation and it is in route to you.
Pickup
Nothing. Cancel as soon as you get home with your device.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Canceling
Call ATT and request to cancel your line. You have 3 days to get 100% service/act fee refund. After that it is prorated or the whims of ATT. Get confirmation of canceling and the employee's ID (their email address). You will get a bill in the mail for $0 and that is it.
Call any ATT number and say "cancel" and you will get transfered to retention/cancelation department. "I would like to cancel my new line. All I wanted was the phone which is why I ordered a month to month plan."
DO NOT USE the activated SIM if you want a 100% refund i.e. don't make a 30 minute call and expect them to not charge you.
Month-to-month = you get a bill = postpaid = you need credit

how much does it come out to then? less than the FWC approach? (Fat Wad of Cash)
thats usually how i do it; cash and no info; just the device.
I'm concerned because the fine prints states only 2 yr agreement. I want to go the month to month direction just to get the phone but I feel like they will get their money from me one way or the other.

Over 70 pages of discussion on it here
http://slickdeals.net/f/6107214-AT-...e-iPhone-5-100-amp-More-Free-Shipping?page=87
I ordered month to month, cancelled when I got home. Guy on phone confirmed no fees for cancelling. I keep the GS4. Paid $320+tax.
Quick question
If you are already an existing AT&T customer (I have the original galaxy note - still in contract), can I buy the month by month (e.g. full price)? Or do I have to add another line?
I mean I just want to buy it at full price, toss out the simcard from my gnote (cut it to be microsim) and pop it in to my new S4?
so its $320 plus tax if you go month to month and cancel? seriously?

I'm coming from the Slickdeals post. I was able to get two "month to month" phones (S4 and S4 Active) for in-store pickup. Once you get the phone, you call and cancel the service. The "month to month" is a no-contract plan. I got the S4 for $200 no contract (due to an error with the system, the store manager made the price $200 for my extra wait.)
I now have an S4 for $200 and an S4 Active for $318 no contract. I didn't have any problems when canceling the plan.
So awesome

I ordered an S4 Active last night with Month to Month under my current number that is already on contact. I paid full retail for my S4 last month and $315 including tax for the S4 Active.
I have a USPS tracking number now so all looks good.
I will either keep both or sell my least favorite. Either way a good deal.
I literally got my S4 YESTERDAY. My god
So wait, let me get this straight. As an existing ATT customer, I can order a new phone on a new plan (month to month). Then cancel the line as soon as the device ships, and I will receive the phone, but no bill? Except for the price of the device of course.
Does anybody know if this applys to the Note 2

With Verizon trying to move away from contracts how did you purchase your note 5
I used The Edge but will most likely pay it off sooner than two years. I get a $15.00 discount on every phone on the edge so it isn't all that bad for me.
Paid $800 cash
Bought it through a Comcast promo using Edge to get them, activated 2 lines getting 2 x $200 gift cards, traded in a couple of old smart phones to Verizon, getting 2 x $200 gift cards from Verizon. When I get the gift cards in I will pay off the Note 5 and other filler phone with those gift cards.
Paid 839.00 tax included

I purchased from Best Buy with a 10%off coupon. 629.99 for Verizon 32gb
I purchased full price from best buy planning to get the free wireless charger and the $200 trade in on my old phone while keeping my unlimited data. However best buy lied. They said in their ad that I just had to activate the phone, what they meant was I had to activate it on a new contract.
I did get them to price match Verizon tho

I have unlimited data. I am adding a new line and doing the device payment using the Comcast link. I will get $200 visa gift card from Comcast. I will trade in a phone to get the $200 trade in. I may try to port a number for the extra $100. The $40 activation fee was waived. I will suspend and cancel the line. I will end up with $400-$500 in gift cards and account credit. I intend to sell my note 4. Hopefully I should get over $300 for it. In the end it will cost me less then $200.
I still have a couple thousand in account credit from this.

Full price, which I'd typically only do for a developer edition. No regrets thus far.
Could someone tell me what they're paying for a single line with tax? I'm looking to switch to Verizon but I'm thinking they'll kill me on tax. I want to buy the note 5 is why I'm in this forum.

Hey, just a heads up Costco has the Note 5 and Edge plus and you get a $150 Costco cash card and the Samsung wireless charger. Of Course you will have to mail in a rebate form but seems good to me. I believe Bestbuys deal for $200 is if you trade in a phone to them, so Costco is better. Also if you are on Tmobile with less than perfect credit and Tmobile wants you to pay a big down payment at Costco all you will end up paying is the sales tax and that's it. Also FYI if you have mailed in a Costco rebate before you know it can take months to get your rebate, but Costcos rebate handler has apparently changed the process and are claiming you will get your rebate in about 3 weeks so fingers crossed.

That's where I got my Note5 and it also included a car mount, car charger (big woo) and the standard 25 dollar Costco Cash card for a total of & 175.00. Also 1 year of Netflix free ($107 value) if you have signed up. I think you can still sign up even after the 20th of August. That's how the S6 was. Samsung will give you a 30% off coupon for any Samsung accessories purchase under $59.99. The deals are fantastic and really bring the price down pretty close to the price of the Moto X Style.

Just called my local Costco and they said they don't sell 64GB in stores and they are sold out on black 32GB in the district. They really don't want my money.. As for the promos though, they said they only offer $150 rebate, wireless charger, car mount, and car charger. They said no additional $25 but hey, I'll take that $150.

Well I know in California they are having some kind of 14 day test with the rebates. Apparently Costco heard everyone's complaints about Stuart Lee Rebates and how long it takes for them to issue rebates in the past, so current rebates should be completed with 14 days after they receive the rebate. But I don't know if this is available in all areas. Maybe that might be a reason for the different rebate amounts.

For the 1st S7E we already had gotten it about 4-5 days before all we had to py was $60 (owner of the account has really good credit)
They told us in order to qualify we had to open a new line (we already had 4, but its 3 of us one wasnt being used) and close the one we weren't using, so we opened a new one and had to pay the $119 for it, we did the way the rep assured us we would qualify

If you're on the month to month plan you can cancel anytime you like but you have to keep the added line until you get the rebate.
