How can i get a new cellphone?

I upgraded my plan w/ at&t about couple of months ago but didnt receive a new cellphone. IS there anyway i can get it without actually having to pay fo it or is it too late fo it now? The phone i have now is all beat up and crap, u know, dropped it few times, now it doesnt work properly, freezes on me all the time...appreciate the feedbacks...thanx

No, i asked the guy about it wen i called them up,the guy kept on telling me the prices of all the new phones, i got irritated and hung up. How'd u get a credit of 50 bucks?? good shit though..The nokia phone i have freezes up on me all the time...

i think they give you a discount on a new phone after 8 months into your contract.

AT&T is bad about giving existing customers breaks on new phones. Thats one thing i couldn't stand about them. Ask them if they can hook you up if you resign for another year or 2...if you're willling to do that. They might give you a better discount then.

If i do that, wouldnt i be breaking the contract? which results in the termination fee?

^^ no, you'd maintain your current account, you'd just resign for an aditional 1 or 2 years from the current date....
