Cost for an early termination with Verizon?

I just added a new line last month for someone and the phones already broken. I want him eliminated from my plan. The phone was a smartphone, the iPhone 4. I understand that the elimination fee is $350 minus $10 every month you're on the contract, but do you have to pay the entire fee at once? Or can you tell them you want to terminate the line and make payments every month until you pay out the entire $350? Or should I just keep the line and wait until the contract is up? Or upgrade and give the line to someone else? And if I can make payments for the termination fee, how much is it a month? Any help would be appreciated!

It would be one lunp payment. I would recommend that you deactivate the line on your plan. This basically means that you have a line you don't use. It cost $10 a month to maintain a deactivated line on your account, but that is much much cheaper than paying the termination fee. Then when you have the contract end you just close the line.

  • Verizon Wireless Termination Fee? I was planning on canceling my plan with verizon wireless. The termination fee is "$175, or $350 if you purchased an Advanced Device". I have two iphones and two regular phones with my plan. Does this mean I have to pay to terminate each phone plan separately or will it be a total of $350 dollars because I own an advanced device?
  • Verizon iphone 5 early termination? If i buy the iphone 5 32g from verizon with 2yr contract for $299 and then cancel the service after 20 days by paying required $350 early termination fee, does this mean that i will own the iphone for total of $649 (299+350) and switch to other carrier? canceling after 20days is because if i terminate the service in 14 days, i have to return the device
