What's the best IPhone 7 deal out there? (Free iPhone 7 with Trade-In)
A couple of years ago when the IPhone 6 came out, a lot of vendors were offering perks for getting the IPhone with AT&T through them. Even AT&T was offereing kickbacks per each line signed on. Now I don't see much if anything. It seems if I get a phone through the Next plan the monthly installment is the same and it wouldn't matter if I ordered it from AT&T or Best Buy or Costco. Has anyone seen anything from a particular source that might be worthwhile purchasing a phone from?

Why are new customers the only ones who are able to benefit from receiving $650 worth of credits and basically getting a free iPhone 7? Why aren't existing customers able to benefit? What's keeping me from switching to T-Mobile, Verizon or Sprint? I've been a loyal AT&T customer for years, but this is a slap in the face.

They get up to $650 in credits to pay off their early termination fees from their previous provider. They don't receive an automatic $650 credit.
It is a way to generate new customers. Only NEW lines get the phone credit. If you want to add a line, you can get the credits for the phone.
And the credits take several billing cycles, so you have to pay the previous providers termination fees out of your pocket until you receive the money for the termination fees. Most people don't realize that and then the previous provider sends a collection agent after them for the fees.

Apple sets the price, and that limits what the stores can do. Stores can offer you incentives to buy from them, but it would likely be extras like discounted or free accessories, their own warranty programs, etc. Since the iPhone is in such high demand right now, I wouldn't expect too many stores to offer much to get you to buy from them.

i would like to upgrade my iPhone 6 to the iPhone 7. My phone has a scratch on the screen, not a crack. But a scratch. Can I still exchange it?
