Carrier Verizon prepaid - not able to preorder

[joe8232]

I was really hoping to order the verizon version of the iPhone 7+ but I wasn't able to. Even though I was going to pay the full price for it, they still want my verizon account details, which I put in and it came back with that account can't be found. I"m guessing this is because I'm prepaid.

How annoying. Guess I'll have to wait for the sim free versions to come on the store.

Anyone else in a similar situation / have a solution? I don't want the T-mobile version obviously because that won't work with Verizon.

Simple solution is to drop Verizon. T-mobile is great.

Verizon cost too much imo, but their network is consistent and your able to watch NFL games free. You have to wait for the sim-free iPhone 7, which will work with CDMA and GSM.

If you could call that a solution.

I'm pretty sure when a new phone launches postpaid customers always get priority over prepaid. That's probably why you weren't able to order.

Certainly seems my $869 isn't valued as much as a postpaid customer, very annoying!

I was thinking T-Mobile but sadly the signal sucks where I live.
