How to get out of my Verizon contract early?

I have the iPhone 4S and I'm so tired of the little thing! It's not broken and nothing's wrong with it, I just want the newer iPhone. I got it on October 20, 2011 so I still have 3 months with it. I don't want to get out of my contract right now, but when the next iPhone comes out in September, I'll still be stuck in my contract with my iPhone 4S for another month. Is there anyway I can get out of my contract early?

Pay $200 or more to get out of the contract

Not unless you pay the Early Termination Fee.
If you got the phone in Oct. 2011, you should be eligible to upgrade now, and when the next iPhone comes out.
Your best bet is to go to a Verizon store.

I agree with Miss. Verizon contracts are 24 month contracts, but their Upgrade period is only 20 months. So if you received the phone in October, you should have been able to upgrade last month, but you should really see a Verizon Store. Hope this answered your question!

  • Upgrading iPhone contract early? I've had my iPhone 7 for almost 2 years now and my contract end in early September. However, when I go on my EE it says my standard upgrade is early August. I'm going on holiday on the 20th of July and I was thinking about getting a new phone for then. How do I end my contract early and get my phone in time for the holiday. My friend was telling me something about having to call the company a lot earlier to get the new phone and I'm just not sure.
  • Is there a way to get sprint to let you upgrade early from a 2 year contract? I have 2 iPhone SE's I got with sprint for free with a 2 year contract. It will be exactly a year i've had the contract in june this year and my contract does not end until june 2018. I've been having problems with the phone getting over heated and shutting off. I want to uprgrade to a iPhone 7 with financing. Everytime I call they tell me with a attitude to either wait another year or pay a $350 termination fee for each device.
  • Is there a minimum time in order to early terminate a verizon contract? I want to get an iphone 5s from Verizon and I heard they sell them unlocked with 2 year agreement. They have a 350 early termination fee so it's 125+350=475.So in the end, it will be cheaper than the unlocked cost. So I was wondering if this would work and would there be a minimum service time verizon requires?
  • How to get out of early termination fee for verizon? I've figured out that if i leave verizon my early termination fee is $135 which is a lot. Is there anyway i don't have to have an early termination fee beside finishing my contract? I'm leaving verizon because sprint has a cheaper plan for the iphone.
