Anyone know if there are any new deals on the Icon for Verizon, my friend went to go and get one the other day but its now back to 99 from 0 on 2 year contract..
Ya I'm kind of pissed I missed the freebie. I gambled thinking the 830 might be the phone to go to from my 822 but too late. I'm kind of thinking on what I read on here and gut feeling that it will go back to free at the end of the month or when the 830 come out. I'm not going to miss it the second time but I have to get my wife to give up her iPhone at the same time but as soon as it drops I'm getting it. er them,.
From what I've read, the icon is still a better phone than the 830.
I agree. It's why I cant wait for it to drop back to FREE!
I double checked and this is weird. The black one is 149, the white one is 99.I still see 99 bucks. The m8 is 149
I'm seeing black and white both at $99. But the black is sold out and will ship on 9/24
Showing .99 for me now and I then when I log in it shows $99! and the Verizon recommended upgrade from my 822 is an iphone 4s and ipad air lol.
I logged out and got the $99 again. VZW shenanigans!
Over the years I have ran into this same dilemma.Thats Bonk! I HATED that I saw this FREE just a couple weeks ago and now that my upgrades are available (as of the 8th) the promo was over. (CONSPIRACY I tell ya! /S)
I got 4 upgrades to burn. I need 2 for my daughters. The 8x is dying and my other wants to dump the iPhone 4 (8GB). So Im ready to splurge on 2 for them. As for me, my 928 is doing okay and I think I'm gonna hold off until I see what comes this fall or even next spring. If the 830 (83x) is coming to VZW like the rumors I read... In no way do I consider that an upgrade even over the icon.
For what its worth, if you do a bing search (and get the bing point) for "Verizon Wireless Promotions" you find a special website (on Cell Phones, Smartphones & the Largest 4G LTE Network - Verizon Wireless) with special deal codes. The ICON is one of them with a $50 credit at checkout. So if you needed to get it, that may help. But I think we may see this drop again once the iSheep are done flocking the stores.
Seeing they were out, try giving them another call, it couldn't hurt. And if you are thinking of upgrading more then one phone at the same time they may be more than willing to help you out (or lock you in to another 2year contract). Just remember to be overly polite...It was free for about two weeks. I had called and asked if they would allow me to upgrade early to get the deal but they were sold out. Upgrade dates were Sept 12 16 & 21.

Tell-sales agents are almost never like in store sales agents. In a store they really will not care what you're asking about, and to them they would rather push you to a different phone then actually try and help you out and keep you satisfied while they lock you in for another couple years...
