OPTION 3 is what I saw...read the way it is worded.."refund up to the purchase price of a new cellular phone"...That means if we paid $519 for the phone and picked up the e815 at $99, we lost the 400 extra....
They want to get rid of you. Take the $519 and then sign back up the next day as a new customer.

cellular telephone, with our without accessories, for a refund up to the purchase price;
For the part that states for a "refund up to the purchase price" does that mean the price we purchased it for or for the price it was going for before they discontinued it because i purchased it from verizon for 249.99 w/ the $70 rebate on Aug.11, 2004
I also am very uncomfortable with option 3....

I also am very uncomfortable with option 3. Ideally option 3 would give you a credit which could be used to get another phone, with any amount left over being applied to your future bills until it is used up. The way the claim form is worded it could be interpreted as only giving you a credit up to the amount of the price of the new phone, with anything over that amount being lost.

So the correct and unfortunate interpretation is that you get to swap phones. Assuming you have the receipt, the only way you can get your full purchase price on the 710 back is if you leave Verizon or buy a phone from them that is expensive enough to use the full credit?
It appears that you get a new top-line phone and accessories up to the amount you paid for the V710, if you want to stay with Verizon.
They are really giving consumers a bad message by apparently offering more $ to leave (in many instances) than to stay. Read these links while they are still up:

Sorry for the...

I'm not telling you to do anything, but the way the documents appear to read right now, Verizon will give [you] $450 + accessories + $175 ETF if you leave and return the phone.
If you like Verizon AND your V710, you'll be rewarded with $25.
So it becomes a personal decision on how much you want to either get back or give up to stay with Verizon.
There is nothing I've read that mentions blacklisting a customer from returning after they leave. You probably know the rules about porting numbers better than I do.
