Retail price on a phone?

Question

If you pay retail price on a cell phone with verizon wireless does that start your contract over?

Answer 1

It shouldn't be restarting your contract, because when you buy a phone at retail price your are basically purchasing the phone without and plan commitment.  If you received it at some discounted price, there might have been a 2 yr commitment that needed to be required.

But of course, you should always contact the Verizon store to see what happened.  However, I'm 90% sure that buying a phone at retail means no changes to your plan.
