AT&T just flat out lied to me, wish I had been recording the conversation. I called customer service to ask what my ETF would be since I am not eligible for an upgrade till 05/2013 and was immediately given the standard "we would hate to lose you" spiel. After 10 minutes of ducking my original question, the rep finally told me that my ETF would be $215, which is still cheaper than the early upgrade price. OR IS IT?! When I pointed this fact out, the rep actually had the balls to tell me that the the Early Upgrade Price is now only $150. They claimed that this lower Early Upgrade fee is only going to stay effective for a limited time (yea, right) for the iPhone 5 only because they wanted to "help all our loyal customers out." I told the rep multiple times that their website currently shows that Early Upgrade Pricing for me would still be $449 (16GB) and they claimed that by the time I go to place the preorder at midnight, the new lower price should show. I asked if this Early Upgrade discount applied to just to me or to everyone and they said it applies to everyone eligible for early upgrades. Basic logic tells me that this rep was either severely misinformed or blatantly lying. Anyone else call AT&T and receive similar information?
It would work for me...
