buy amazon's MobileMe retail to extend an existing account? Does this still hold true when buying this MobileMe "product"?

still true, but they don't make it easy. You won't find the option in your account billing tab. You need to go to the activation site and select the "renew" option. https://secure.me.com/wo/WebObjects/Signup.woa/wa/activation

I had a similar experience. I reported it to NetTalk customer service several times and they never did get back to me. Searching the internet I learned that the 12 month subscription is only included with devices purchased directly from NetTalk or from one of their authorized sellers which evidently doesn't include the Amazon seller(s) that you and I bought our devices from. Unfortunately I learned all of that after the Amazon window for returns closed so I was stuck with it. To make matters worse I had paid them $19.99 to port my phone number and they used the credit card information from that transaction for an automatic renewal after 60 days. I reported that to customer service as well and never heard back from them. I explained all of this to Amazon customer service so that they could correct the information on this listing but nothing came of that either. Return the device to Amazon right away and look into the other alternatives. I got an Obi202 here which has given me free service with Google Voice however that is ending in March so I need to look for another VoIP provider. (Unlike NetTalk and MagicJack the OBi devices are unlocked so you can use them with other providers.) The Ooma devices look very promising- Amazon is selling them for $115 and there is a monthly charge of $3 to $5 to cover govt fees for the calls. http://www.amazon.com/Ooma-Telo-Free-Phone-Service/dp/B002O3W4LE BTW with the NetTalk there was a 3-4 second delay between what was spoken on one end and what was heard on the other. You had to talk real s-l-o-o-o-w to avoid utter confusion. I had never noticed that with the MagicJack+ I had used for a year (I thought that was the absolute bottom of the barrel but I learned otherwise. :-( )

From the Amazon website: CONDITIONAL $250 Equipment Discount Included: Your price paid includes an Equipment Discount of $250 that has been provided to you in exchange for either activating a new, non-substitute line of service or renewing an existing line of service with T-MobileWhen it says "renewing an existing line of service" doesn't that imply that you can qualify for the discount? I have expired contract as well and am looking for a cheap phone upgrade without having to change my phone number and service plan.I got a reply from Amazon directly on this issue and they changed the wording on their web pages the next day. Basically, you cannot upgrade your phone and get a massive discount.

The answer is NO. I purchased a new Ipad on eBay. I called SquareTrade and asked if I could buy the warranty on Amazon for use with an eBay purchase. I was told that as long as the Ipad is new, the Amazon warranty would apply. So, I purchased the warranty on Amazon. When trying to register my Ipad, the "Place of purchase" was "Amazon". This could not be changed. Wanting to make sure that this warranty would apply to my Ipad, I called SquareTrade again and explained the problem. The process to get this straightened out took SEVERAL hours. The calls are outsourced so I was dealing with Indian agents with, for the most part, thick, heavy accents so I had to ask them to repeat themselves again and again and sometimes just giving up on the answer to that particular question. In addition, their comprehension of English was limited. At the end of my first call, the agent thought it was a glitch so he canceled my purchase and told me to buy it again and try registering. After hanging up, I did (it didn't work - same problem). During multiple calls, I was put on hold several times. For one of the holds, I waited over 10 minutes and had to hang up and call back. In addition, my call was dropped several times. Each time I had to call back and start at the beginning. In the end, a supervisor informed my agent that the Amazon warranty only applies to products purchased on Amazon. The Amazon warranty is better (offering longer terms and specials in pricing) than their warranty for other retailers since Amazon their biggest reseller. SquareTrade should make this clear in the description.

I'd really like the deal to come back seeing how the Amazon Store Card's poor implementation is what prevented me from taking advantage of it last week. Response in 30 seconds? Try 5 days, after which the deal was over. Not to mention I got denied because GE Money Bank couldn't "verify my identity". What a joke. Amazon, you should realize you're probably losing more sales than just mine because of this garbage company.

As of today (7/17/13) LG customer support tells me, with a measure of vagueness, that they are "concluding a contract with Amazon to provide connectivity to more LG players, and a software update will be coming out mid-July." By my lights, it IS the middle of July. This sounds like BS to me. LG agent was vague about recognizing my particular unit (label on back reads "LG BD572 Aug 2010", clear as day). Amazon customer support agent, equipped with same HW information, attempted to talk me through the process, took me down the exact-same avenues I'd already explored, arrived at the identical impasse I'd arrived at: inability to get LG device to cough-up a five-digit "access code". Do any of these bozos know what they are talking about, re the HW/SW products they are taking our perfectly-good money for????

No. You can get the upgrades from Micro$oft when you register your product, but the Home version is limited. Read the info carefully before you buy it, because Amazon doesn't accept returns (at least it wouldn't accept mine). As with everything, know what you are ordering.

Amazon is a reputable retailer, as is the "shopcelldeals" seller. I used them a couple years ago to purchase my Virgin Mobile LG Optimus V and it was legit, sealed in original packaging and everything.

The phone that I bought was not pre-paid and I added it to my plan. Many different companies sell Verizon phones on Amazon. You must check to make sure that the phone that you are buying is not a pre-paid phone. If it is, you have wasted your money if your goal is to add it to an existing Verizon plan.

Well I talked to amazon plenty of times and every last rep gave me a different answer. The thing is no one is getting a straight answer. I am pissed but I guess I will just have to wait. There is nothing we can do but wait. Oh and Dwight. I was given that date by the second rep i talked to and then it said that on my account before they switched it the third time.

Firstly: What is GSM??? Whatever is your problem if you bought it from or through Amazon.com, it should be good as it's a trusted company n am proud being the Amazon.com's customer.

I went to the Verizon store and they set it up for me. They gave me a new Sim card and created the account but I insisted that I would pay for the service only when I needed it rather than when they set it up. They also initially told me there would be an activation fee each time I used the service. Obviously that would be ridiculous and they read further and determined this was not the case. I'v esuccessfully used the device several times now only, adding funds only when I need to use it.

Hi,I am also wanting to upgrade 3 phones and obviously have a family plan. When I try to buy this, it is forcing me to take a plan also for each phone, which I do not want. Any ideas if I will be able to keep my existing plan. I called up Cingular and they had no clue. Amazon says that they will cancel the plans that I am buying.Also will I be eligible for the Cingular and Amazon rebates.

Amazon Market is very good (Pre-Installed ) and 2nd only to Google Play in my opinion 1Mobile Market, of which I downloaded from download.cnet.com ( http://download.cnet.com/1Mobile-Market/3000-2071_4-75450771.html ).
