How to get an early Upgrade from Verizon?

I have an iPhone 4S and do not have an upgrade until the beginning of March 2014 however the last few months my phone has slowly been breaking. It shuts off at random times and it doesn't hold a charge at all. I have insurance and they'll replace the phone, but the technology is so outdated I don't want another 4s. Is there anyhing I can say to Verizon that can convince them to give me an early upgrade if I go to the Verizon store with the service center?

You'll have to pay the early termination fee which is $350 since you have a smartphone
