blackberry storm 2 verizon

The BlackBerry Storm2 was yesterday’s main loser and I’m not proud to say it. The Storm2 is one of the finest BlackBerry smartphones out there but Verizon decided to make it available the same day the Droid hit. And as you can easily see, the Droid is getting all the titles while the Storm2 gets mentioned at the bottom of the page.

But there are a lot of people that will get a Storm2 in the near future, not only because the phone is really hot, but because Verizon Wireless is offering two Storm2 smartphones for the price of one. The buy one get one free campaign includes the Storm2 which means that lots of people will want to take advantage of the offer.

And here’s how you can purchase a new Storm2 without a new contract and for a cheaper price than the contract free version. All you need is a friend or family member to buy the Storm2 and order a second Storm2 for you. You’ll end up paying less for the phone without having to ink a 2-year agreement with Big Red.

In case you don’t know anyone that wants a Storm2 then go ahead and hit eBay instead. A lot of other BlackBerry Storm2 buyers will want to take advantage of the BOGO offer in order to sell the second BlackBerry for a small profit. Not only will you get a brand new Storm2 but it will also happen to be cheaper than the contract free version available in Verizon stores. The only problem is that the Storm2 will still be locked so you’ll have to deal with that later.

The BlackBerry Storm2 is available for $179.99 after $100 mail-in rebate and with a new contract while the contract free Storm2 costs $539.00. In case you don’t want to get a second Strom2 then you could also choose other free devices or phones from Verizon but I think you’d be better off walking out a Verizon Wireless store with two Storm2 phones in your pockets. What do you say?

Update: Naturally, the second device has to be activated, which means getting a second 2-year contract from Verizon. That has been the rule with BOGO promotions out there. I don’t have to tell you that some people do need 2 new lines but won’t want to keep both Storms. And a contract can always be canceled after a month or so after paying the required ETF fees and you still get to keep both phones.

    The information you provided about Buy One BlackBerry Storm2 Get One Free Promotion in Verizon Wireless is incorrect. The BOGO only applies to the previous STORM version.

    If you read the disclaimer:
    “Buy the BlackBerry Storm2 and Get a select BlackBerry or Mobile Broadband Device FREE
    ****with 2yr activation per phone ****”

    You might get the second Storm ‘free’ but you still have to sign a 2 year agreement for each phone.

    The only loose thing in your post was improper grammar and a lack concise writing. Per your ‘About Us’ page, you want to TFTS to be one of the preeminent technology blogs on the web. Please sharpen the composition and editing process if you wish to be taken seriously.

    Not an edict, but constructive criticism from someone who knows there is room for improvement. All the best.

    Seriously? Looser? As in MORE LOOSE??? Or did you mean LOSER??? How can anyone take anything you say seriously, when you can’t even spell a simple word???

    P.S. My 7 year old daughter caught your error when it was up on my screen…

    That is completely bogus. They required a second line activation in order to get the second phone free under the special offer…….which requires a contract commitment.
