Is it possible to cancel a cell phone contract without paying those crazy fees?

i have heard of services that allow you to transfer your contract to another party who is interested in buying it. i can't really recommend one because i haven't heard any feedback or used any of these services, but i saw one mentioned in this thread and i found www.celltradeusa.com with google...

but keep in mind those are ONLY two examples; there are probably other companies out there providing the same services, and i would recommend doing some more research before just going with the first one you find. your provider probably charges a fee to transfer a contract, usually between $20-$35, but that's better than a $150-$175 per line ETF!

also, i'm going to move this thread out of New Member Help and into the General Service Provider forum. someone there might have more suggestions, or you might find your answer in existing threads with CPF's search

hope this helps...

After reading this thread I called my provider to ask if this was possible. I was transferred to the customer retention dept and they Recommended celltradeusa.com . I just wanted to thank you for bringing it to my attention. I`m going to give it a shot and I will drop by and let you know how it goes...

It depends on the carrier you're with. Some carriers will do it if you can prove you're moving to an area they don't have coverage in.
