Went to Wal-Mart last night and while I was there I asked if they were going to carry the Note. The person in the connection center said that they were just told by their AT&T rep that Wal-Mart will be carrying the Note in store on the day of launch.
Not sure if this is for all Wal-Mart stores, or just ones in my area.
Usually Wal-Mart is a little cheaper on price, so I'll be heading there to get mine.

Watch out if you have unlimited data on your account. I've seen many customers come in after going to walmart or any other third party with their unlimited data taken off.

I can say this is true. The fact is that Walmart doesn't have the ability in store to keep the unlimited data. The truth is that all Walmart can do is upgrade your phone and give you a cheaper price than AT&T. Anything that deals with your contract can't be handled through Walmart.
The Kiosk used to do the upgrade process is pre programmed with select options and there is no way anyone at Walmart can make core changes to the contract. So if the Kiosk forces them to put you on a LTE or Smartphone Data plan you will lose your unlimited data. From what I hear even calling customer care is causing issues for getting unlimited data back.
I can tell you this for fact and from personal experience. I work the connection counter and do upgrades all the time. So is the saving of $40 really worth your unlimited data? That is the real question.

If you happen to lose your unlimited data going through them, you can always get it back. Just takes a call to 611 and you explaining that you "didn't authorize a change to your plan".

That's what happened to me when I bought my Dell Streak at Best Buy. Almost took an act of congress to get my unlimited plan back. The ironic part was that the AT&T retail stores had no clue what it was, so Best Buy or Dell was the only place you could buy one.

Yeah the process for them to add back your unlimited data plan is serious process. They have to file a internal case to have their domestic data department to actually make sure everything transpired inappropriately. Its quite a hassle and can take up to a week.

By cheaper..Will Walmart be selling it for like $20 cheaper initially? (As in for like 1st week of release)
Some people seem to think that Amazon Wireless or other 3rd party retailers may sell them for as cheap as $200 rather soon after the initial release.
Purchase at best buy...have them match the walmart price

I doubt very much you will get it any cheaper then bestbuy your getting a $80 discount when you account for the $50 bucks and free case
I actually work at a Walmart Wireless (new prototype of the connection centre) and we've not heard anything about carrying the Note on launch day. not to say it won't happen, but doesn't seem likely in my area of the country at least.
On a side note, I've upgraded a lot of people with grandfathered unlimited data and never had anyone lose it. The associate just has to call in to AT&T and do the upgrade manually. Customer keeps their data and the store still gets the commission.

So I will be buying this phone cash no upgrade. Where should I go? I see it on sprint for 550 but everywhere else has the non upgrade price higher. I would have thought bb would see it cheaper than sprint.
Do you think any of the sprint stores will even have any on the 18th lol.

I believe I saw you could pre-order it from Sprint with out going on contract.
Pretty much the best place to buy it out right would be from the carrier if you want it new. Everywhere else is pretty much $100+ more out right.

but if your trying to stay away from the internet. AAFES aka The Exchange, but you have to be in or know someone who is in the military
If you are buying it out right because you are not due for an upgrade for a while keep this in mind, I was going to cancel my contract early then restart with a new 2 year agreement to get the upgrade price and when I told a Sprint rep that that is what I wanted to do, he said that if I pay $45 that it will give me an early upgrade elegibility and so I did it and I preordered the Evo and now wait for tomorrow for the release might wanna see if you can do that instead of payin all that money to get it off contract. This is legit at least in my case, I don't know if it work for everyone but it did for me. Worth a shot!
But keep in mind it will restart your 2 year agreement....your choice!
I am eligible for a upgrade. I just dont want to be on contract. With all the stuff Sprint has been taking away and them rolling out LTE Alot more could change soon.
I have been with them for 14 years and I have put up with there slow data speeds for the unlimited thing. But My GF has t-mobil and her speeds blow sprint away in my area (3g and 4g). On top of that she pays about 30 less then me a month. She only gets 5gb of data but I use wifi a lot and never really go over 3gb... Sooooo It might be worth it to change...
I'm planning on buying as an upgrade, but I missed pre-ordering so I'm going to buy from a physical store hopefully on release day. Anybody know if all sprint stores are going to have the phone available to buy on shelves? Or would it be better to try buying at Best Buy...?
If you buy the phone full price you'll pay 550. If you do a contract, get the phone for 200, cancel the first month and pay 350 etf, you've basically paid the same amount. Might as well go on contract
That's true .... I have been with them so long I forgot about etf..... so should I get it at sprint or best buy? I have also bought with sprint...

Evo lte will not work on t mobiles network from what I read. They are different frequencies.
**** Apple, I won't buy anymore of their products. They delayed the release of a better phone.
Well if the lte does not roll out like they say it will... Or they dump unlimited data.. I will pay the etf and then sell the phone on eBay... That way I can get on tmobil or ever is cheaper... My bill is like 130 a month on sprint and my gf pays around 100 after everything... Now that only 5gb of data but still more than enough for me...

I'm planning on switching from T-mobile to Verizon soon (December 24th, the first day we can leave t-mo) and am wondering if there is a best way to start service with Verizon? In a corporate store? Online? Verizon kiosk in a local store? (most of these kiosks around here waive certain fees and throw in extra car chargers, etc.) We'll be activating four lines, three with the DNA. Are there any ways that give discounts over others? Any input from a VZW employee (or anyone who knows) would be great.
Thanks
Interesting, I'm planning on leaving Verizon for T mobile, any reason your leaving? I just miss unlimited data.
I would start an account using a 3rd party retailer as you can save a bit off the phone price. I purchased 3 DNAs from Wirefly for $150 each, use coupon code WIREFLYBLUE83 and you'll get a free bluetooth for each phone.
I also think I read something about the dna at Walmart for about the same price and you get a gift card.
Edit: also check if your place of employment gets a discount, I just recently found out that mine does so I get 19% off monthly, mine as well apply it to your account from the start if available.

We're leaving (mainly) because we get no reception at our house, work, school, and a few other places we frequent. It works (in LA) fine in most public places, outside, and (sometimes) in the top floor of houses but, at least for us, reception indoors completely drops. Wifi calling partially offsets this, but we don't have wifi everywhere. The big push over the edge for us is that there is only sporadic reception when traveling between cities on most highways.
So, if you have wifi at most places you go and you just need unlimited data for on the road while in the city or in the upper floors of buildings, T-mo will probably be just fine for you.

Luckily we're not heavy data users, so we're willing to pay a bit more for far better service. Thanks all for your help.
I switched from sprint to verizon not too long ago and I went to an Official Verizon Store and they wouldnt waive any fees or add any extras in either,
however if you go to a best buy store and sign up through best buy (probably a better way to do it) they will price match any sale that verizon does they may waive some fees and/or throw in a couple of cases too.
The rest of my fam. went to a best buy activated 4 GSIII's and paid $70 per phone + $35 activation fee for each one. The black tie protection that BB offers is much better than vz insurance
Black Tie = $10/Mo. (up to $149) OR a 1 time payment of $149 (up front) per device and you can break your phone every day and get a new one if they have them in stock and NO deductible. (with BB's BT plan you dont pay anymore money after the 149)
VZ Asurion = 6.99/Mo. (forever) $100 deductible every time you break your device
With BB you have 30 days price match guarantee so like i said before, if you can find any regular sale (Cant be a sprint GSIII for $50, it has to be the verizon variant in order to qualify) you get it for that price. We found the GSIII on amazonwireless.com for $69.99 so we went in and they refunded $400 to the CC.
Go to BB and they will hook you up and get the black tie protection plan (you wont regret it)
*i was just using the GSIII as an example

Wow I left T-Mobile a year and a half ago for the exact same reason. I could stand on my front porch and have great reception and then step one foot inside my house and then get none. Inside pretty much any place I would frequent would get terrible reception but the minute I stepped outside everything would be fine. Switching to Verizon was an excellent choice as I no longer have that problem. I have excellent reception pretty much everywhere I go now.
As far as the topic goes, I would recommend trying Best Buy as .torrented has mentioned.
I was just wondering if anyone knew of or has seen any good deals on full retail pricing for the note 2?, I know there is always CL,swappa and other phone forums. But I was just wondering if any stores ever run specials or anywhere online?
I am looking at paying full retail, but if I could save 50 or 100 I would like to.
I heard something about maybe in April the retail price could drop?
You're always going to have a hard time finding deals on non-contract prices. Carriers aren't going to reduce their price because it takes away from their subsidized pricing and makes it seem like less of a deal. For instance, Verizon's site lists the GS3 at $699 off contract, it's been that price since it's release last summer.

Unfortunately there hasn't been many note 2's on CL in my area, a few around christmas but other than that none. But I have seen a few on swappa that I am interested in. I also checked celltraderonline but it looks like a lot of the deals on there are from what I called the "power buyers" that used to be on here until the marketplace closed. So needless to say many of those guys do several deals with each other, and they have a lot of extra money to throw around, so I don't see a good deal for me over there. (one guy I remember on here bought 90% of the iphone 5's that were posted here, I know of 4 he bought for around $800 ea)
But one thing that is kind of odd is I got a call from my parents wondering if they could be added to my VZW account (they have sprint and well, sprint is sprint) and their contracts are up in April. They said they don't need "fancy phones", so if VZW will allow me to add lines to my account I could give on of them my rezound and get their subsidized priced phones (note 2 for $300).
I have no clue if verizon will allow me to add a line to my unlimited plan though.....I know I can't add lines and get unlimited on those phones, but maybe I can get on the old family plans?
Well here's a little update, my parents called me and said they are going to Verizon from sprint and if I wanted they would give my and I their subsidized phones. So it looks like my wife will get her iPhone 5 and I will get my note 2, hopefully for around $500.

Worth every cent and then some to keep it though.
if you are on a family plan, you can add lines with 2gb of data. It will cost about 40 a line to add (9.99 line fee and 30 for 2gb of data). If you are not on a family plan, I don't think they will let you keep unlimited when switching to it.

I'm on Verizon obviously and I was lucky enough (at the time) to have been grandfathered into that 1400 minute plan with unlimited data. We have two phones, HTC Rezound(mine) and a Motorola DX2(wife), both do for upgrades in August. I'm probably going to wait until some new phones come out, nothing I see entices me right now.
Down to the point, how can we upgrade without losing our unlimited data? What are our options, any way to get around this? My wife is dying for a new phone, here DX2 is 2 years old and falling apart plus I'd love to get away from HTC. I appreciate any help with this.
Really the only way is to buy a phone off-contract.
Yeah as far as buying new, either catch a sale right around launch and buy it retail or wait until the phones been out a few months or so until they're cheaper than the retail price at online auctions or classified listing.
Or you can add a new line and get a new phone. Then swap Sims and activate an old dumb phone on the new line which allows you to not have to pay the $30 smartphone package. Ends up costing about 12-15 after the 9.99 monthly charge with taxes and usage fees added on.

If I remember that thread he got it by transferring the upgrade from one line to his or something. I think that's what happened.
Right now I'm on the old Nationwide Family Talk & Text plan. We have 2 phones; 1400 min, unlimited data and text. My girlfriend and I don't even come close to 1400. I took a screenshot of my data usage and my gf's from the vzw app. I believe it shows that I used over 5gb for this billing period so far? Am I able to see last months total data usage online? My 3yr old uses my phone a lot so I'm worried about tier data plans. Oh and we pay about $175 a month for this plan for two phones which is insane
I think these are all of my options? Which do you feel is the best for me in the long run?
A. Pay full retail for two new phones and use the monthly payment plan so I can keep my unlimited data?
B. Switch to a data tier plan and drop unlimited so I can get the 2yr phone discount prices?
C. Wait until Dec when my contract is done and then switch to another carrier?
D. Try and find a use phone on Craigslist?
Right now I have a Rezound (used from Asurion) and my GF has a cracked DX2. Where looking at maybe the S4 or a 5s when it comes out. We always wanted to try iPhones.

I was crunching numbers because I am thinking about leaving AT&T for something cheaper, and I noticed that with the One Up program you only pay $65 for the unlimited service instead of 80, and more importantly you don't have to pay the $349 for the phone up front. All you should have to pay for is the activation fee initially.
If their One Up prices fall in line with other companies (we don't know what it will be for the note 3 yet, but I assume $27) then you are looking at about $92 a month. Over a year, if you include the price of the phone if you don't have One Up you are paying $1345 (80 a month, plus $345 for the phone, plus $36 for activation). If you are in the One Up program then its only $1140 for the year ($65 a month, estimating 27 a month for one up fee, $36 for activation).
I'm not sure if I'm going to join Sprint or not because of this, but it is pretty compelling. I'm also looking at Tmobile as an option because they have LTE in my area, while Sprint doesn't.

From what i heard about network quality from members on this board, i'd recommend looking at t-mobile instead. Also read through the Sprint triband note 3 fiasco. I think it may always be better to purchase your phone outright and go prepaid. Then when you're ready to upgrade just sell it.
They would have to pay me to stay with Sprint at this point as their network in Colorado is abysmal. Of the silly constant-upgrader plans, the Sprint solution is one of the more compelling from a price standpoint, though.

I was the only customer in the store this morning, but was still in there 1.5 hours!! They said no other local store had been able to do it yet, but they finally got it to go through for me!!

Mine went through no problem. Left store' got in car was all working dandy. Corporate store in Delaware
Lots of familiar faces here as I look through the few threads already created. I got mine a little while ago and had to wait due to the provisioning problems. I did the One Up program and am looking forward to the onslaught of goodies to come. I finally gave up my S2, she was good to me. Let the fun begin!!
Yeah I finally got mine. There was a problem early this morning, I was there when they opened @ 9. It was a problem affecting all Sprint stores. The phones were not provisioned right but they got it squared away around mid 11-ish, because I called stores on both ends of the country and then called my store.
Any1 in florida done the one up upgrade? I went to corporate store and wad told fl is not doing it yet.

Can some explain this one up plan with my current situation? I have 1500 everything family plan with three sg3 phones. I can't upgrade until March, but I am eligible for one up.
My question is, since I'm eligible what are my options. Do I have to trade my sg3 or can I trade in a old phone? Also what about my bill? It's currently 240 does it increase?

Okay now I am NOT an expert at this but this is how I understand it and you seem to be at the same point I was. First be aware that if you want to do the one up you must must must change your plan to the unlimited plans they have now. On the unlimited plans the first phone is $50 a second phone is $40 and the third phone is the $30. Then on top of that you need to add $30 for unlimited data or $20 for 1 gigabyte or something like that. Because of this I did not do the one up program because I do not really care about Unlimited Talk I only care about unlimited data and it would cost me way more money to get unlimited data with their new plans. As far as the one to program yes since you're not eligible for renewal right now you will need to trade in your phone. I was told by sprint representative that you could put any phone on your line that was in working order and use that to trade in. Whether or not that is the truth is yet to be seen.

No One Up for me
I also have the 1500 Everything plan and similar to cherylbaker, I didn't opt for the One Up plan either because I did not want to change plans. If you read the fine print, the new plans are not as good and open the door to throttle data. I'm staying on the Everything plan until they kill it; I hope that never happens but with Sprint pushing "unlimited for life" with the new plans makes me think Everything is going away at some point. I was afraid adding a third line would force me to change plans but so far that is not the case.
The other thing with the One Up is that you need to turn in your current handset.
Try updating ur prl shouldn't that help
