As many of you know, my parents are going through a separation right now. Right now, the three of us are on a family plan and mom really wants to get dad off of the plan but he just re-signed his contract and it would cost $300 to cancel it. My line's contract is up next month and I had told them before that I was planning on getting on a family plan with DH.
So here's the thing: Mom right now only gets unemployment and SSI so I really don't want her paying for a phone that she hardly uses anyway. My job offers discounted plans through Verizon (that we're currently with) and AT&T (that DH is with) and I can get a family plan through either one. I was throwing around the idea of me and mom getting on a family plan under my name through my work discount and seeing if Verizon will let Dad switch his line over to an individual plan without paying a cancellation fee.
Any of you had any luck or no luck with doing that? I do plan on running it by my mom and calling Verizon tomorrow to see if they will even do it but I wanted to know if anyone else had any experience with turning a family plan into individual lines and what you did to make it happen or what problems you had.
