Working with canceling Verizon within 3 days was a nightmare last Summer on the Pixel 8 deal. I wouldn't do this again.

What happened if you care to explain? I just signed up with Verizon to get this deal and ported out immediately as soon as I got home.

I just did the same. Online order, in store pick up / trade in (Pixel 6 Pro - $260 enhanced trade in).
Just ported out, so the Verizon account will be cancelled. Will see what kind of bill they send.

Verizon makes it clear about no activation fee if cancelled withith 3 days, but will they prorate the bill?

Pretty much everything I read online says they won't, but a few places (including the other thread here in SD) say they do 😕

Verizon cancellation policy from https://www.verizon.com/support/return-policy/

You may terminate service for any reason. You will remain responsible for your Activation Fee unless you terminate service within 3 days of activation.

"You will also be responsible for all applicable usage fees, prorated access charges, taxes, surcharges or other charges that accrued to your account through the termination date."

ATT cancellation policy https://www.att.com/wireless/return-policy/ and then cosumer

"Service Cancellations within 14 Days. You may call us at 800-331-0500 to cancel wireless service. You are responsible for all applicable fees, prorated access charges, taxes, surcharges, or other charges through the termination date. AT&T will refund your activation fee, if any, if service is terminated within 3 days of activation. The charges for service used on the account before the service termination date may be applied against any down payment."

Both of them will charge prorated for days of use.

As per which one is better between vzw and att I can't say for sure. I have done these deals on ATT only and it's pretty easy to cancel over chat. I think the same is true for vzw. If you happen to have an existing account with them adding a line and then cancelling is the best way to do it. Both of them will send you a bill later on which you would need to chat with them again to void it.

Most of the info and answers are in this thread and wiki

I got all the way to the end after trying a couple times (Couldn't make a new line with ATT online), and then every phone I tried to get wasn't available for store pickup or delivery. 😡

I did Verizon this time but have done ATT in the past. I cancelled the same day by porting out. They sent me a final bill with just the activation fee + taxes. I called in and they wiped the bill clean.

Thanks for posting this. Great deal, especially when combined with the free iPhone 13 deal last month from Metro. Best Buy's trade in value is $400 instead of $200 right now.

You can purchase the Google Pixel 8a on sale right now at target for $299, and it's enhanced trade in Value is $490.
Brining the cost down to $9.63 at Bestbuy with the trade in, when you select trade in Google pixel 8a > Color: bay (Obsidian was giving me an error so I purchased Bay instead).

Then select Verizon new customer (no port in required), ATT is $100 more expensive and requires port in.
You will still have to cancel the vzw service within 3 days of activated to cancel the service, and to get a refund of $35 activation fee from the carrier which you'll have to contact customer service to do.

This is my first time going through with the cancelling of vwz or att but I read up on the 2 threads listed below for more information and seems like a little hassle but doable for the savings.
Google Pixel 8a @ Target for $299.

Yesterday's deal which was cheaper and expired now, and thread I used for reference on how to cancel service and refund fees.
