I recently got the Razr Maxx and found that the in call volume (even though it is all the way up) is way too low. Couldn't hear anything in the city.
I asked a online chat rep if returning my new phone that I upgraded to on 6/1 would revert my account back to upgradable status as well as give back the 100$ credit that was on my account and she said YES. I went to the verizon wireless store and they said NO, it would be gone forever. Which is correct?
The person at the store suggested that I preorder the phone and exchange it when it is released because I will still have the $100 credit if I do it that way. The only problem is if I preorder the S3, and it doesn't come out by 6/15, I won't be able to exchange to it, or is it possible even if it's coming out later than 6/15? Can I commit to an exchange, revert my phone back to my old phone until the S3 is released? They say that typically preorders start a week before release and that I should be fine but with reports of release dates being on the 20th+, I'm a bit weary.
Can a verizon rep please answer my question?
1. Will returning my phone give me back the $100 credit that was on my account prior to the purchase of the new phone on 6/1?
2. Is it possible to commit to an exchange with a phone that isn't out yet and use my old phone in the meantime?
Thank you!
