- If you’re ready to leave Spectrum Mobile but already have a payment plan for a new device there’s a way to get out of the deal early.
- Spectrum’s Anytime Upgrade feature lets you swap out your phone — even if you’re on a payment plan and even if you have only had the new device for a few months or less.
- Some users are taking advantage of a loophole to trade in expensive phones for a cheap model and pay it off upfront, but this workaround may not last long.
Last year, Spectrum Mobile tried to attract more subscribers with a special promotion that offered a full year of free service for customers who also used Spectrum for home internet. This promotion is still available and can be a great way to try the service, though Spectrum Mobile certainly isn’t for everyone.
If you’re not impressed with Spectrum’s phone service, you don’t necessarily have to stick around for the whole year if you brought your own device. But what if you bought a phone on a payment plan and still have many payments left? Surprisingly, there’s a way out without having to pay off the entire phone: Enter Spectrum’s Anytime Upgrade feature.
