My 24 year old daughter keeps mangling, losing, dropping and dunking the Verizon cell phones and smartphones I give her. I replaced 3 of her LG VX 10000 Voyagers in the last 2 year cell plan cycle I signed up for, and I just replaced the second Droid Incredible in the last 6 months of the new two year cycle at $ 90 a pop deductibles. The insurance is limited to two replacements so they are done. Although the insurance company billing is via my Verizon bill it is a separate entity from Verizon.
This last replacement the insurance company, Asurion, had no more Incredibles and replaced it with a brand new, in the box, Droid X. I’m seriously considering selling this thing on eBay and just keeping her on the less expensive non-smartphone.
Is there anything preventing me from selling this unit on eBay as a clean Verizon Droid X ?
If someone purchased this and went to get it registered on Verizon would there be any issues?
I believe you would have to notify Verizon that the unit has been sold so that they have a record of the transfer on file, allowing the purchaser to register the phone on the network successfully. But as far as I’m aware, no rule against you doing so.
Do you even need to notify Verizon? I have given old Verizon phones to people when I got a new phone. They are using them without any notification to Verizon from me.
Doesn’t Asurion charge you $$ if you don’t return the old phone (or one of the two phones) to them? Did they not include a return envelope for the old phone when they sent you the new phone?
Only if the phone is damaged. She dunked this last one so I returned it in the envelope. (along with a 16GB MicroSD mem card I bought her:smack:) I’m talking about selling the new replacement phone vs giving it to her, and letting her continue to use the non-smart backup phone I gave her (one of the old LG Voyager VX 10000’s.)
