So, my upgrade date and contract end dates are the same?

What exactly does this mean? This was my first contract phone and it ends on 9/11/14. My upgrade date is also 9/11/14. Does this mean I HAVE to go pick out new phones and sign a new contract on that exact date? It seems they'd give you a range of dates so you could do it a little early, before your contract really ends. What happens if I don't make it there on 9/11? My service will be turned off?

When your contract is up, nothing changes other than you're month-to-month and can leave Verizon without paying an Early Termination Fee.  You also are then eligible to upgrade your phone at a subsidized price by signing a new two-year contract (you can upgrade at any time by paying full retail price).  If you're happy with your plan/phone at the end of your contract, you don't have to do anything at all.

The upgrade date isn't for one specific date, but for that date onward. You're not required to upgrade. If you choose not to, your account will remain active on a month-to-month basis.
