What if you had a bunch of old Verizon phones in the closet? What costs would be involved in simply reactivating one of them?
In 2005, with about 6 months til my upgrade, I lost my phone. I found a 2nd (or 5th) hand V120 and activated that. For a beatup phone, it was actually pretty good and I had a quick thought about holding onto it but upgraded anyway.
If I wanted to do that now, what would I have to pay? How much does it cost to change the account to another phone? Would I be charged an early termination fee for a phone I'd lost?
There would be no additional charge to activate your old phone to replace a lost one. But you would still be required to pay for a data plan if your lost phone had one. Other than that it's pretty straight forward.
