I pre-ordered on Verizon but my mom is the account owner and it wouldn't let me change the billing name but I was able to enter a separate credit/debit card. Will it be ok since the name on the card is different?

I have the same situation. Account is in my wife's name, but I asked Verizon earlier about this, and they said since I'm added to the account as an authorized user it would not be an issue -- had the same concern when I ordered the iPhone 5 two years ago and had no issues; so not sure if you will, if you're an authorized user on the account, likely not, otherwise I'd suggest calling to make sure.
 
Thanks. I know in the past she called and made me authorized but not sure if I still am so I just added myself as an account manager.
 
I had a moment of panic as well but technically it said only billing & shipping "Address" must match, nothing about the name on the order, so I feel like it will be fine :)
