DEVELOPING: Verizon Holds Phones Hostage: 35-Day Unlock Delay!

Verizon is delaying phone unlocks for 35 days. The new policy affects customers who pay off device installment plans early. This impacts those seeking to switch carriers.

Customers now face a waiting period. This applies to online, in-app, and phone payments. Payments at authorized retailers also trigger the delay.

Previously, the 35-day wait was only for gift card payments. Unlocking allows phones to work on other networks.

Immediate unlocks may require in-store payments. Verizon has not yet commented publicly.

This is a developing story. Updates will follow as they become available.
