If you've got written approval for the credit, take it with you. As for
matching Verizon's price, that's something to discuss with the store
manager. I doubt that they will bend, but it's worth a try.

How come you were successful where I failed when I tried the same thing?
It seems to depend on how accommodating the CSR is. It's like playing
Russian Roulette. What a way to run a business!

In my opinion it is worth a lot more than $50 not to be stuck with
verizon service.

thanks for all the input. I know the feeling about it being a luck of the
draw, I still need to see if they honor it though. Kind of makes you
question things though. I'll let people know what happens. Thanks again.
