I've been reading conflicting stories about peoples renewal dates after ordering their iPhone 4S. I know the amount of lines and monthly bills play a factor but just curious what everyones new renewal dates are now and which carrier you're with. I'm trying to see whether they're still offering 12 month upgrades or have most pushed them back to at least 18 months now. Thanks

My primary line that was upgraded on Friday for an iPhone 4S pre-order, now shows May 7, 2013 for the next Upgrade Eligible date. In the past it was exactly 12 months. :(

5/8/2013. Lol. No way I'm wsiting that long if we get a souped up 4 inch screen iphone 5 next yr, so I'm gonna start saving up now, lol. Hopefully i'll get at least a partial upgrade.
 
5/8/2013. But I'm not concerned about it. It has always changed (favorably) for me in the past, I assume it will continue to do so. Also, the second line on my account is eligible in May 2012, so if my line doesn't get bumped up and I want to update again, I can always do so with the second line.
 
"You are not eligible at this time for an upgrade at a discounted price. However, you can take advantage of our no commitment pricing. Additional discounts may be available on 5/08/2013."
Ouch, I wasn't aware AT&T did away with the yearly upgrades.

Same. Kind of bummed, and hoping it'll change eventually.
 
mine says I'm eligible to upgrade at full price.

however, i can upgrade at the discounted price Feb 25, 2012
 
The line I pre-ordered the 4S for still shows I'm eligible for upgrade, not sure what's going on there. Our main line just got a Galaxy S2 and shows not eligible, but I'm still eligible on my line... pre-ordered through Apple, got the confirmation e-mail and everything :confused:
 
05/08/13
However, since my mom never upgrades her phone, I'll just use her upgrade if the next iPhone is something worth getting.
 
05/07/13

I purchased an iPhone 4 with my primary line this February, and the upgrade date for that line 02/19/2012! If only..
 
5/8/2013... It was the 7th then later changed to the 8th. If it doesn't change by next year then I'll probably be using my early upgrade for the next iPhone. I miss my yearly upgrades!!
 
Same as everyone else.

The AT&T guy told me the reason it is not 12 months anymore is because We added my mom to our family plan.

Could that really be the reason?

I've always been able to upgrade every 12 months since 2008
 
Wouldn't matter for me. My dad is eligible for an upgrade in 10 months and he doesn't care too much for latest technology, so when the 5 comes out, I'll give him my 4S and I'll use his upgrade.

Good stuff :D
