Ok, so I've got a question that I'm not sure if anyone can answer, but I'll give it a go...
I started a contract with Verizon back in October '07, and had to pay a $400 deposit. They told me that after the first year is up, I will receive the deposit back as long as I make all of my consecutive payments. I received a free phone from work, so I'd like to cancel my line with Verizon. Is there a way to get that $400 back? Or do I have to wait until October to get the refund back, then cancel? I was told by a friend that they actually just credit that amount toward your account rather than cutting you a check. Is this true? I'd ideally like to port my number from Verizon to cancel my Verizon plan, but I'm afraid that if I do that, I won't get my deposit back. I understand there's a termination fee, but would I not get the deposit back, and still have to pay the $200 termination fee? Any insight would be greatly appreciated
