ebay!!! I have bought 2 replacement phones. Just make sure it's a Verizon phone and transfer your sim card from her current phone and you're good to go.

I know AT&T does this because that's my old service provider (I'm now with Verizon), but every 6 months you can restart your 2 year contract and get a phone for the 2 year contract price which is cheap. As said IDK if Verizon does this.

True they do not use SIM cards but i have screwed my phone over many times and bought one on ebay and you can go to www.verizon.com and get on your account. You can change phones for free that way by putting your code in that i located behind your battery. There is a how-to on the website.

Did you get this resolved? I have a pile of Verizon phones here at work. We switched to T-Mobile and got all new gear. Let me know. I think there are a few Moto V3's in the pile. Might even have a pink one ;-)

Just out of curiousity, why did you switch from Verizon to T-Mobile? I have T-Mobile now and am planning on switching to Verizon at the end of this year (when our contract is up) because my wife can get a discount on Verizon through her work. Plus, we are sick of T-Mobile, coverage sucks. There are MANY times (i.e. in airports) where my phone has no service but everybody else and their brother is talking on their phone. :puke:

Verison also offers a Military discount, but I don't recall how much.

 

Is this a new company? I haven't heard of them before? :puke:

      The Peckish Synapse

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      You can always count on greed to prey on ignorance and stupidity.    Friend bought a 2019 Ford Flex and asked me about using Valvoline R&P 5W30 in it. Told him give the miles on it and the fact it wasn't yet using oil that it was a good plan. He uses a Valvoline quick change shop for his oil service.   First they tell him that isn't the oil the OEM recommends. He told them he didn't care what the OEM thought. Then they floated the, "But it will void your warranty"    His reply was it's a 2019, there is no warranty and informed them their knowledge of the law was lacking.    Then they tell him 'But it will ruin your motor"!.    Mine to ruin he says. Finally they give in and charge him 150% the semi-syn price    Point it the brainwash is so embedded that even the service industry is drunk on their swill. The public is right behind them. Echoing the same lies on every forum and media platform. If the end goal is indeed EV then I'd say that ship is about built.

      2026 6.6 L5P oil cooler leaking oil at 4,000 miles

      By Brendan C · Posted

      New to diesel trucks. I happened to find my oil cooler leaking oil externally with only 4,000 miles on the truck. I didn’t realize this was an issue until I started researching it. Dealer is going to replace it under warranty but I’m wondering if there’s anything GM is working on to fix this issue. I’ve heard the oil filter used is the same as they use on their V6 motors and that’s what is causing the problems. Should I switch to a bigger filter or keep using the OEM recommended?

      Seems to be Missing a lot of Updates

      By Vu1can · Posted

      So, GMCustomerService:  Judging by the Update History pictured above, is this truck missing any updates that it actually needs. If it's just for the infotainment system, the radio is working fine and no trouble with SeriusXM. and Android Auto is working fine wirelessly with my phone. Some months ago, an update notice was sent to my truck. I approved the update and it finished saying that the update was successful, but it seems that whatever that update was, it didn't actually get installed - at least not if I'm to go by the Update History shown above.   So, again, are there any updates that this truck really should have? I've checked with my dealer but they're reluctant or commit to anything and if I want them to check, they require a $200.00 fee just to check it out and then I'd have to pay for the actual update(s).    Ignorance is bliss, and if none of the updates goes to fixing any mechanical discrepancies, I'll just leave things as is.
