Perhaps you took the meaning of "locked in" too literally? ETF for a contract is essentially a lock in. And i have no intention of paying the balance off the old phone in order to get the s8. Especially since every other provider will pay that off to switch. My point is why would i pay that device buyout with verizon, and then upgrade when another provider will pay the device buyout+ETF to get me to switch, and ill get the S8 through whatever financing i wish. Being that paying the buyout in order to upgrade is the only option with verizon currently.

I have $109 on my S6 device payments with my current account. I inquired with customer service about upgrading to the S8 and buying it at the retail price outright, but was told I would need to pay off my current buyout, and then purchase the new S8 (preorder) additionally at retail price. With all the major carriers offering similar plans, and buyback promotions for etfs/installments, what real incentive is there for me to not go to another provider? my s6 battery is toast so an upgrade for me is critical, but this doesn't seem like logical business sense. why would they make you PAY more to lock yourself in for another 2 years?
