It turns out, Verizon has a loophole that can give you a pretty sweet discount for staying loyal to its network.
The loophole, explained by PhoneArena, will give you up to $120 off or a $10 per month discount on your plan. This is a hack that users discovered on Slickdeals and Reddit. Take note, however, that this isn’t something that Verizon openly advertises as a promotion.
As the post explains, you will need to “hack” your way into the offer by making Verizon’s system think that you are preparing to port out your number to a different carrier. You can do this by opening your My Verizon app account, tapping on “Edit Profile and Settings,” look for the “Security” section, and tap on “Number Lock.”
When you switch off this feature, this will make Verizon think that you are getting ready to receive a Number Transfer Pin. At this point, Big Red will try to convince you from leaving its network by sending an email that contains a $10 per month discount.
There’s no guarantee when you’ll receive the email containing the discount. There are some who receive it in just a few minutes or hours. Others have also gotten the email in a couple of days. You can keep a lookout for the email and check that it doesn’t go to your spam folder.
With this discount, you’ll be able to save up to $120 for a year of service. Remember to enable Number Lock once you’re done to secure your account.
As the report shared, Verizon might learn about this loophole soon and put an end to it so make sure to check if you can still get the email.
