Major New Deal Offers iPhone For Free, With Or Without Trade-In

The Trade-In Deal
This is what Verizon calls its Red Hot Deal Days event, (link here)and it means that if you trade in a qualifying phone and sign up to a three-year installment plan with the Unlimited Ultimate tariff, Verizon will pay for the phone. The company offers this with the words, “Get a phone, tablet & watch, all on us,” so it’s not just limited to the iPhone.
To take advantage of this deal there is small print. Notably, “Trade-in must be from Apple, Google, Motorola or Samsung; trade-in terms apply,” it says.
With a suitable phone for trade-in, what happens is that you must trade it in within 30 days of purchase. For upgrades, the phone must have been active for 60 days before the trade-in.
As it says on the site, if you trade in, you can save up to $830, which is the full price of the iPhone 16 with 128GB storage.
This means that the $23.05 monthly cost is reduced to $0 because, guess what, 36 x $23.05 is $829.80 or, in other words, the full cost of the phone.
The iPhone 16 available on the site in all five colors: white, pink, black or the two standout colors, teal, which is a gently assertive shade that still manages to be relaxed and pastel, and ultramarine, which is eye-poppingly bright and attractive.
What If You Don’t Have A Phone To Trade?
No worries, provided you’re a new customer. So long as you’re a new rather than an existing customer, you can sign up to a new line in the Unlimited Welcome, Unlimited Plus or Unlimited Ultimate plan and when you buy the phone a promo credit of $830 is applied across 36 months.
