phone upgrades

Is Verizon still doing free/discounted phone upgrades after 2 years? I have had an LG Chocolate 2 for about 5 years or so

and would like to upgrade to a texting phone like the Brightside.

The LG is the only phone I've ever had and have never upgraded once.

Thanks in advance

Hello pgumprecht,

I’m glad to learn you'll be upgrading to one of our new devices. You are eligible to upgrade to a new device after fulfilling 20 months of your two year agreement. To help you decide which device is best for you I recommend you compare our Basic Phones. You’re able to compare up to five devices at a time and review their available features and capabilities. To view the discounted price available to you feel free to log in to My Verizon and select the device you wish to upgrade to. Thanks for continuing to Rule the Air with Verizon Wireless.

so is the -$50 the discount?

100 bucks for a basic phone seems like a lot imho.

not that I can't afford it, i'm just saying

I'd wait a little while to see if COSTCO, Best Buy, Target or Walmart, (stores not online) gets this phone in stock. They are usually much cheaper and don't require a 3rd party contract.

Costco and Walmart uses let's talk... You agree to let's talk terms when you purchase there.

I'm speaking of in stores. There are not 3rd party contracts, that have restrictions on them. At least from my experience in my local stores.

I ordered the Samsung Brightside last Friday.

Should have it in another day or 2.
