It says iphone activation at 8pm, you can make an appt at 6pm. Does that mean Id have to be in the store to stand in line to get the phone, and then can't actually make the purchase until it is activated until 8pm? Or have to stay in the store until 8 to activate it? I assume that is when you get the GC to WM? I've purchased an iphone thru Target, but not on BF - so they just activated it then and there.
Has anyone ever done this before at WM? Just wondering what to expect. I already have an account thru Verizon, and I've read the fine print so I assume this is NOT for new line activation, but just activating the phone on my account?
I'm interested in this deal as well, but with the Samsung phone. I asked the manager of the electronics section in my store about this when I was over the other day. The way they explained it to me is that I would need to be back by electronics in a line that they're setting up for it at 6pm. At that time, they'll be going through the line to schedule appointments for activation starting at 8pm. After you receive your appointment time, you may leave the store, as long as you're back in time for your appointment time. So say you stand in the line for your appointment and they give you a 10pm appointment. You can leave, go shopping elsewhere and come back for your 10pm appointment. I would suggest calling whatever Walmart you're going to and talking to their electronics or cell phone department head. They should be able to give you more info. Best of luck!
So I called later this afternoon and talked to someone who said the phone will be sold at 6pm but to come back after 9pm for activation.
