I recently called Verizon because I was eligible for a new every 2 upgrade in April, and I heard that you can supposedly get them to give you the phone 2 months earlier. Well, I called, and they said that I wasn't eligible until 2010 because I had gotten a new phone (as a replacement to a phone that didn't work under warranty. i am on my 8th phone since October of 2007! It's ridiculous!

New (2 yr upgrade)
refurb

New (3 to new policy)

refurb (current phone)

Now, I'm already eligible for a new upgraded phone at the 2 year price, But I'm wondering if I can get the phone free. This is a ridciulous amount of trouble! And basically with taxes on all of these new phones, I've been getting screwed $8/each phone. So, do you have any success stories with Verizon to give me a free phone? And, it's not even an expensive phone, it's only $130!

Thanks in advance! I do choose best answers!
