Some people may not be interested in the latest and greatest and just need an upgrade at a decent price. Not everything is about the newest phone.

Won't happen.

 

[PlayUltimate]

happy with VZ. . . and don't need a new line.

 

[Williesleg]

Where's the iPhone made these days?

 

[4jasontv]

pay taxes on the full retail price of the smartphone upfront

I still don't understand this. Sales tax should be based on the final price paid, not the claimed value prior to a discount.

 

[TheYayAreaLiving 🎗️]

but hey, this is still a good deal.

AT&T's unlimited plans, including Unlimited Starter, Unlimited Extra, Unlimited Elite, Unlimited & More, Unlimited & More Premium, Unlimited Plus, Unlimited Plus Enhanced, Unlimited Choice, Unlimited Choice Enhanced, Unlimited Choice II, and Unlimited Double Pay.

Does anyone else see the comedy in this?

AT&T is pathetic.

That’s because you aren’t really getting a phone for 50% off. It’s subsidized in the cost of that extra line. Extra lines are pure profit for carriers.

 

[QCassidy352]

This deal is ok. A much, much better deal can be had on Verizon, where adding a line and trading in a phone as old as the 6 can get you an 11 pro for free, and in only 24 months, not 30.

 

[TheYayAreaLiving 🎗️]

We should be getting the invites for iPhone event before end of next week. GM should drop August 08th??? What do you guys think???

I don’t understand these “when you add a new line” promotions. They might as well be called the Duggar Family Deal. Unless you have an expanding family, this promo isn’t a deal for most people. I’m not gonna add a line just to get an $800 device half off, considering the line is gonna cost at least $1200 over those 30 months.

 

[Corsig]

For as long as I can remember AT&T has offered a buy one get one deal when the new phones are preordered.

Wonder if this means they aren’t doing this this year?

Well, it’s for switchers, really.

I got in on their 11 Pro Max deal for $1k off in subsidies when you switch and trade in a phone deal that I'm sure will be posted here tomorrow or later. I don't need the latest, I had XS Max on Verizon and was happy with it, but wife wants a longer battery life and I'll be happier paying $13 a month instead of $60 for the iphone. In 30 months I'll probably switch back for a similar deal. I thought going from the 6S Plus to the XS Max would be a massive change, and it really wasn't, so saving the money is worth it to me.

I still don't understand this. Sales tax should be based on the final price paid, not the claimed value prior to a discount.

Thats what this is. Over 30 months, $1k is being paid for the phone, you just pay half of it and ATT pays the other half.

 

[4jasontv]

Thats what this is. Over 30 months, $1k is being paid for the phone, you just pay half of it and ATT pays the other half.

But you are paying the sales tax on all of the device but only paying for half of the device. You are being taxed double what you owe. Where is that extra money going exactly? Merchants don't have to pay sales tax on part of good they discounted. If anything they get to write that off as a loss.

 

[mattopotamus]

I almost can't read these wireless carriers plans/promos without getting a headache.

"Verizon offers 50% off iPhone 12 with purchase of iPhone 11 and unlimited pro plus premium unleashed data plan and 4 lines."

 

[7thson]

Well, it’s for switchers, really.

Of course, that would be a good deal for a switcher.

 

[bluespark]

I still don't understand this. Sales tax should be based on the final price paid, not the claimed value prior to a discount.

They probably account for it as a credit against service rather than as a discount off the phone.

 

[4jasontv]

You are probably correct. It's just weird that they can advertise it like it's a device credit. They must prevent you from claiming it's covering the cost of the device. I wonder if you could report this as overpaid sales tax on a state return.
