I know the whole contract thing is a 2 year cycle, but I have heard many times that you are eligable for a discounted upgrade after a year and a half, exactly 6 months before the contract end date. Is this true?

You used to be eligible for a discounted upgrade after completing 20 months of your two-year contract, but that changed earlier this year. Starting with contracts that began January 1, 2012, you must now complete your entire two-year contract before you can get a subsidized upgrade. You can upgrade at any time by paying full retail price for your phone or by getting a phone from somewhere like ebay or swappa.

Will they give you a couple days in advance? I would be leaving the country about 2 days before my contract is up, and I would really like to have my new toy, oops, I mean Phone. lol

I've heard that sometimes Corporate stores will grant upgrades a day or two early; I don't know about on-line or via Customer Service, but it doesn't hurt to ask.
