June

Carrier: New phones available in July! Will have sim cards for BYOP!

Me: Awesome! I can finally replace my ancient Moto X and I only have to wait a few weeks!

July

Carrier: New phones available July 28!

Me: Well I guess that’s technically still July...

Later in July

Me: Oh look, Amazon has the phone I want for $150 off retail, I’ll take it! Only two more weeks until I can use it.

July 28

Carrier: New phones are here! Order now!

Me: Where are sim cards?

Carrier: Oh, those won’t be available until August 11.

Me:

Kinja'd!!!

Carrier:

Kinja'd!!!

TL;DR: Was told I could get a new phone in July, can’t use new phone until mid August.

Just talked to evil corporation Verizon about upgrades because all I could see on the site were idiotic monthly payment plans. Frankly $25 a month for 24 months = THE GOD DAMN RETAIL PRICE OF THE PHONE.

Verizon Chat: Oh you’re going to have to call and try and change your plan over to a 2 year plan.

Me: No one told me any of this changed when the plan changed.

VC: Do you want the number?

Me: GOD DAMN YOU PEOPLE

My bill is usually $10-15 / month for unlimited talk & text plus 1 GB of data, so I’m happy where I’m at.

I’m still using my old phone, so no, not in need of any alternative cell service right now.
