Sorry to hear that! I was going to tell you to try tomorrow but I'm sure they make notes in the system. I guess it's how you approach it too. I actually recorded the conversation but then deleted it as I didn't feel like be harassed about how illegal it is to record someone without their permission.
Anyway, I was just straightforward, acknowledged that I understand they know nothing about iPhone 5, and explained how I have absolutely no problem with AT&T but at the same time I'm going to do what's cheapest for me. I got no attitude or hastiness from the rep and was quite pleased with the call.
So to anyone else who tries, just be real and straightforward and it might work to your favor.
Yea it seems like they would try to lock you in some how. Otherwise you could take the $250 and still cancel. At $175 (I think that's what your ETF was) you still make out.
Grrrr...I could totally use this but my wife is so overdue for a phone. She still has the 3g.
You sure about this? I am due on 11/17 and I was a release day iPhone 4. I would be a real happy camper if this proves true.
I am paying $170 a month and I am only a week ahead of you. I really do not get how they figure these dates. There does not seem to be any rhyme or reason.

Did you dial *639# I did my date is not till nov but I can upgrade to a iPhone right now. Every year AT&T let's me upgrade.

What? Mine is November as well and I would have to pay for the phone, $250 to upgrade and $18. I assume you would have to do the same.
AT&T can not change or move upgrade dates on Apple products, she wasn't lying, and no supervisor can override that. It is part of their contract with Apple.
They gave me $250 as an incentive to bribe me to stay. When pharmaceutical reps come to the hospital, they bring tons of food and pens and such. They give it to us for "free" in hopes that we will start using their product.
