Verizon upgrade fee? Can I pay at the store or do I have to pay it the next bill?

I plan on upgrading my phone and renewing my contract next month in January. I plan on getting the iPhone 5s. I'm on this family plan with one line. Is there's an activation fee that I have to pay? Can I pay the upgrade fee at the store while purchasing the new phone? Or do I have to pay it on the next bill?

If your line is eligible for a upgrade in January, you would pay the cost of the new phone at a discounted price at the store. The activation fee will appear on the next bill which will arrive in the mail.

Usually they put it on the next bill.

  • Will I have to pay a fee to get my iPhone 5 lock button fixed? My one year warranty ends in November but I have a little crack in between my flash and camera. It's right where my mic is but honesty it doesn't really affect anything on my phone. My main concern is my lock button. If I can't get a completely new product like some of my friends have gotten, can I just pay for the lock button portion? It said that it could repair that specific piece possibly. If so, how much is it usually?
  • When do you pay the upgrade fee for an iPhone? I know it's $36, but aside from the $199 +tax I'm going to pay, do I have to pay the upgrade fee right away or does it show up on my next bill?
  • T Mobile or Verizon. Should I pay T-Mobile 175.00 for an upgrade or 94.00 to Verizon for new phone? I want the iPhone 6s plus. I'm already with t mobile but there internet is a bit slow sometimes. Its the jump plan ill get. Ill pay 12.00 for 24 mo. And if i get a new phone they won't run my credit again. But with verizon they'll run my credit. Is pretty good. But i don't want anybody to really run my credit tho lower it. I'm not sure about verizon internet but the commercials looks pretty good. They bboth have unlimited internet. What should I do?
  • Phone upgrade next month, do I get a free iphone5s or do I pay a little extra? I have an iPhone4. My upgrade is next month on O2, I pay £22 a month, I want to get an iphone5s, I don't get the world of upgrades, do I get my iPhone 5s for free or do I have to pay extra? Especially if the iPhone is the newest edition! Do I get the iPhone for free with the same data and calls limits and all that? Please could you explain some good info as I don't get the world of upgrades! I'm so confused!
