The new Verizon activation fees cost more in-store, less in the app

Verizon has simultaneously reduced and increased its activation and upgrade fees, depending on how you treat the transaction. according to CNET and the reports posted online, you only pay $ 20 if you upgrade your device or activate a line on the carrier's website or in the My Verizon app. This is $ 10 less than the previous $ 30 for one or the other service. However, if you enter a store or call the company phone line for an upgrade or activation, you will now have to pay $ 40.
