Last year a sweet talking rep sold me on an extra line with an extra flipping phone, but not a flip phone, an iPhone XR.
Now, an iPhone XR is better than an iPhone 7 Plus, except it only had 64GB of storage.
I must have been in the depths of the lockdown blues to have wandered into such an incredibly dumbass expense.
She made me think I was paying $200 for the phone, but I was not (it was probably $200 off).
I did not use the second line, and only used the new phone as a spare to fiddle around with on the internet while my main phone was charging.
FIRST WORLD PROBLEM.
So last week I paid off the rest of the XR.
Tonight I canceled that second line.
I ordered a NORMAL iPhone 13 (not a Pro, not a mini).
Normal.
I got it in RED.
I got it with 512GB of storage.
She SAID that I will get $800 of credit toward the new phone with my trade in.
I will be operating under the notion that I will be upgrading to the 14 next year, but even as I type this I suspect that I will now wait for the 15.
I have 14 days to decide if I should switch to the Next Plan ($5/month to do a trade-in to the next release).
So there.
My Waterloo, laid bare.
