Hello Verizon community.
I have an iPhone 4S right now and for some reason my upgrade is on 9/28/12.
I really want the iPhone 5 (4SS, whatever it will be called haha) which should be announced and the preorders should go out on the 12/13th.
I know verizon doesnt let customers upgrade early if they are going to an iPhone.
So I guess my question is, is there a workaround to this?
Can I call the customer support line and ask to move my upgrade a few weeks early, WITHOUT mentioning anything about an iPhone?
And it wouldn't be a big deal if iPhone sales went through and they didn't go out of stock with the first few days. So please dont give me crap like "Just wait!!" that doesnt help anybody. i'd rather you not post. thanks.
Thanks for any help I can get.

As the oldtimers would say, "Don't put your eggs all in one basket."
Exactly which crystal ball are you reading that says the next iphone will be available the next day after the Apple announcement. If there is an iphone announcement.

There IS an apple announcement on Wednesday. Google it. And I meant you can preorder the phone the day of the event of the day after.

Like what? And a week is better than nothing. At least at that point i can try to reserve a copy of the iPhone 5 when they are in stock at the apple store.

Those customers that wanted the S3 and weren't eligible for an upgrade had to wait during that phone's pre-order period until the customer was eligible. The same thing applies for customers wanting an Apple phone.

So I have to wait until he 28th? That is a real bummer. This new iPhone is going to be out of stock. So i wont be getting the phone for awhile (I sold my 4S and i'm on a blackberry ) and it sucks that my upgrade is 2 weeks after the pre-order and 1 week after the release. I just don;t understand why a Verizon employee can't move up my upgrade by 14 days.

Because if they moved yours up by 14 days, they'd have to move everyone's up by 14 days. I know you said not to say it, but I'm gonna anyway ... chill, dude ... it's just a phone. You can wait a few weeks.
