Want a new cell phone plan without paying to cancel your current contract? Try Cellswapper.com

There may finally be a way around those nasty early termination fees levied by the major cell phone providers. Cellswapper.com gives users the ability to literaly swap cell phone contracts with other users. Think of it as the cellular contract equivalent to Ebay. Users can "sell" their phone contract without incurring a cancellation fee and "buy" contracts from others without paying an activation fee. This is a great solution if you are looking for a short term cell phone plan (contracts are availbe for as short as one month) or if you're stuck in a plan that isn't meeting your needs. Two other similar sites include: CellTradeUSA and Resellular.com.

Offering Change Responsibility for T-mobile Line

I have 2 lines with T-mobile and no longer need the 2nd line. I am looking for someone who is interested in signing up with T-mobile and willing to take over responsibilty of that line. Everything would be changed into your name and I would no longer have access to it. The only requirment is enough credit to qualify. The contract currently ends Jan of 2011.

T-Mobile Plan Exp July 2010 2 Phones

I have 2 tmobile phones that have about 1100 min a month and unlimited text at 134.00 a month (it can be reduced to bare min) I just can't afford to keep the plan..I can tho tell you that if you wanted to try tmobile out this would be a good way of doing it..I will communicate anything information and answer any questions that you have..This is the plan that will not let you go over your min and charge you an arm and a leg for any extra. when your min run out( that is: talk min) that is it..Unless they are on your top 5 even if you run out you can still talk to your top 5 and text whoever you want..Please help me finish out this plan by giving yourself the chance to test out Tmobile..One phone is a Motorola w450 and the other is a samsung t429(has insurance) both phones are in working condition.

The way how u tried to

The way how u tried to explain some posts at here seems to me different...there are certainly different posts at here,but i didnt find any post related to projects like home mortgage , second mortgages , bad credit refinance...if someone have information about it,do tell me!Well any updates related to this post?if yes than do tell me!

I am HAppy with www.cellswapper.com

It was nice to save money not only from heavy termination fee of carrier but also on activation fee. I swapped my plan and phone with a new plan and a nice phone using cellswapper. It was smooth and easy and I don't mind spending few bugs and saving my time and all that hassle. Now I got rid of my signal issues. Thanks Cellswapper, it is THE BEST.

CellEscape

A new site called Cell Escape is set up a lot better than the rest, and its completely free. I have successfully used CellSwapper, CellTradeUSA and even Craigslist to get free phones for my family, but they are all a lot of work. The sites are buggy and don’t offer enough detail. Also, the advertisers never respond. CellEscape.com seems to have overcome all these issues and are FREE.

Take over Tmobile Contract - 15 Months remaining.

Someone interested in obtaining a T-Mobile USA family plan(700 Minutes shared) and Unlimited Domestic Texting which amounts to $107 a month. The unlimited texting can be removed off the account which would drop the monthly total by $25.00. 700 Minutes Family Shared is 59.99/monthly. With the plan being taken over a Hot Pink V3 Razr and Nokia 5300 Xpress Music(purple) phone would be traded over. This is a great opportunity to not have to pay a deposit or buy into a plan for service(just over a year in contract length).

The way this would work is once an interested party wants to take over the account, I will contact T-mobile and notify them of the transfer of responsibility. Then the user would need to call into T-mobile and provide them with information to determine if they are credit worthy to take over the account. The contract term is for 15 months which would end on November 28, 2010.

If you are interested please email at: valkryie_vx@yahoo.com

2 Razr phones, T-Mobile plan, a year left on contract @ $65.98

I am looking to get out of my contract with T-mobile family plan (2 razr phones included), I pay $60.00+tax total for shared 700 mins. a month, internet can be added for an extra $5.99 for each phone (I dropped the internet part because we do not use it). I am looking for a similar plan but we only use about 200 mins. a month. This is just too much money for people that only need to share 200 mins.

2 TMOBILE LINES Wanting to do a CHANGE OF RESPONSIBILITY ON??

We are currently with TMOBILE and have a family cell phone plan with 5 lines, 3 of which we are still using, 2 of the lines are no longer in use, as the teenagers have moved. One line contract ends May 2010, the other November 2010 and on this one I do have the sim card for that one. I am looking to do a change of responsibility of either one or both of these cell phone lines. This is great if your credit is not so good, cause there is NO CREDIT CHECK, there is no waiting in a store to see if you have been approved for an account, and it takes no time at all!

Works like this, its quick and simple its called a CHANGE OF RESPONSIBILITY, in which I give permission to a tmobile representative to give my phone line to you in which I give them you name & Information, then you speak to the representative and tell them you accept responsibility for the line, give them your information and that's it yours!

Once in your name you can pick your own plan, services, you can keep the number I transfer to you or for $15.00 you can change it if you so desire.

This is a very good deal! If interested, pls do not hesitate to contact me via email to BCandRCcole@live.com or call 816-462-7749.

Looking to get rid of 19-month T-Mobile Contract

Hello,

I'm looking to give up my 19-month T-Mobile MyFavs 800 minutes Family Plan with two lines. The base price is only $69.99 a month. I have added the unlimited text messaging for families at $20/month, but this can be easily removed.

I am offering two Sony TM506's (one red and one green) to go with the contract. They were purchased just in February, and are in great condition. To go with the phones, I have the wall chargers that came with the phones, one hands-free headset, and one 2GB memory card.

E-mail me at mrlemurlovesyou@gmail.com if you're interested.

No credit check change of responsibility??

My credit isn't the greatest, but I wanted to take over a contract. I read that Sprint will not do a credit check if the contract has less than a year on it. Is that true with other carriers? I want to take over a contract.

I'll be glad to let you take over the contract I have with verizon wireless it is a 2 year contract with 2 phones a samsung juke and a samsung...... the plan is $69.99 a month but can easily be changed!

Please take my tmobile contract!!

I have a tmobile contract that I believe lasts 'till around Mar or April 2010 (I'll have to double check)

Because I have been a long time TMobile customer, they offered me their "UNLIMITED LOYALTY" plan where I get

UNLIMITED MINUTES
for only 49.99 per month
+ free nights and weekends, etc.

I use a TMobile RAZR that you could probably have for free if you take my contract.

Please contact me at nigaras@gmail.com, serious offers only please, thanks!

get out of cell phone contract and get a no contract plan

I agree, CellTradeUSA and Resellular.com. are options and I think there is a charge for actually being matched with someone to take over your contract. I see people using Craigslist also to have someone take over their contract. I hate being under contract and will never do so again. I fought with my carrier non-stop about contracts and should not have to do that. I sure don't do this with my landline company, why should I with my cell phone company? I am now using http://www.wirelesswithout.com and have been very happy so far. I had them take over my contract and now I have a plan with Verizon (they have other companies too) that I can change anytime or cancel without any fees or contracts. I pay them the cost of the plan (I get a copy of provider's bill) plus $1.99 a month fee to them. Personally, I think less than .50 a week is worth it to me to stay out of contract and be able to change anything I want at any time. In would definitely recommend this company.

anyone is interested to take over my T-mobile contract?

I want to get out of my T-mobile contract because I need to move to another country for a job in the end of May 2009.
Therefore, I would like to perform Change of Responsibility (this is very safe and we can do this over the phone with T-mobile representative).
The cellphone plan will end on Feb 16, 2010. Cellphone won't be included. I just offer my contract plan.

Services:
Free nights and weekend
1000 free minutes
400 free messages
total is 50 dollars/mo with tax included

This is a very good deal plan! anyone interested, pls do not hesitate to contact me via email to cindykecil@gmail.com

if you go to a tmobile store

if you go to a tmobile store and show them a address of wear u are moving they will waver the cancelation fee...or if u have a bill from that address.

Selling Verizon Contract

I have about 13 months left in my Verizon contract. It's about $96 dollars a month includes long distance, mobile to mobile, internet, free text. You can always downgrade or upgrade once the contract is yours. You can have my cell phone as well. it's a Samsung Alias (the one that looks like a razor but flips both ways). Email me at k_spillman@hotmail.com

THANKS!

Selling ATT contract

Right now I have a ATT contract that ends this fall. I don't need to swap because I already signed with another provider. Contact me at scout0805@yahoo.com or call me at (530) 953-7565.

TMOBILE CONTRACT

Right now I have 2 lines with tmobile. I want someone to take over both lines , but I will accept just one! If you want both lines it is even better. Right now it is the myfaves plan with 1000 mins and free nights and weekends. I really want to switch to verizon because everyone I know has it. If anyone wants this plan let me know. All i need to do is refer you to tmobile. My number is 7819759177.

verizon

I need a verizon contract that is less then 9-10 months left! I want to help someone out and I need help because I dont want to have to sign a 2 year contract to get a phone(so I will need yours) and I don't want to sign a year contract to add onto a family plan! THanks for your help leave a message at- 801-691-4496 thanks!

want to be released from a contract that ends this July 16

Hi, we have a plan for our 5-member family that stretches out until 2010, but someone could use the plan that ends in July this year and end the other contracts that way for us. The phone we could give you is a Motorola with a camera. I think it may need a new battery soon, but I could find that out by going to the Verizon store and having them test it. If it's almost gone, we would buy a new one for you.

We are in Dayton, OH. But I don't suppose that matters.

Cellswapper.com is a SCAM!

It's free to join, $18./95 when you make a transaction. fair enough. But the transactions they tell you about (i.e. someone is interested inyour phone) are from people you cannot check out to firm up the deal ahead of time, without paying the $18.95. On the home page, popup screens similar to those "you may have a virus... download our antivirus software now" appears, telling you you have a "live transaction" awaiting you, as if someone wants to take over your phone contract. No message I have ever received relates to my offer or phone. in fact they want ME to sign up with AT&T and get a $10 rebate! AT&T is what I am trying to get rid of!

The site's DNS info is conveniently hidden by "domainsbyproxy.com.

Do the math, folks. Here's an email they sent me about a phony transcation:

Great news! Cellswapper has been contacted by an interested party, wishing to take over your plan:
title:.

Based on this update, we strongly recommend that you check out the following suggestions:

Please click http://www.cellswapper.com/UpdateStatus.aspx?[snip] to pay $18.95 service fee. (My note: this is BEFORE you know if the alleged buyer is for real.)

If you have no yet paid a posting or service fee, simply click http://www.cellswapper.com/ProductInfo.aspx?productID=CSPowerSwapperServ... to proceed with the transfer process.

Thank you for using CellSwapper.com

Also note the misspelling in "If you have no paid..." Some are saying it's a Nigerian spam site. Fortunately, I purposely used a disposable email address when I signed up, and I did NOT and would NEVER isue my credit card #.

Your facts and math are wrong. Cellswapper.com is NOT a scam.

C'mon folks use your head!, if you get one misspelling, does it mean someone is from Nigeria? I've read they are based New Jersey, USA: http://www.somewhatfrank.com/2007/01/cellswapper_swa.html

They have been featured in Time Magazine:
http://www.time.com/time/specials/2007/article/0,28804,1633488_1633458_1...
and New York Times:
http://www.nytimes.com/2009/01/01/technology/personaltech/01smart.html?_r=4

With their amazing instant live transfer service, both sellers and buyers who are online can chat and transfer the contract instantly. They have a live transfer service and when you log into your account and stay online, your status will be automatically visible to all the visitors and other members who are online. This way people can initiate a chat with you and you can also initiate a chat request with other people to transfer the contract. Using their messaging service both buyers and sellers can communicate with each other and confirm the transfer.

If you want you can Swap contracts with others or just handover your contract. In case you are worried about losing your number, some carriers do allow to keep the number during transfer of contract by porting it before the actual transfer takes place.

Since the Transfer process is facilitated through the specific carrier, the carrier will do a background check on the buyer when you initiate the transfer and your name will be completely removed from the contract.

This truly is an awesome service! (5/5) Check it out yourself now:

RE: Getting out of a cell phone contract with celltradeusa.com

I was able to get out of my cell phone contract using celltradeusa.com

FYI- I put a listing on celltradeusa and sellswaper and reselular is out of business. I didn't get any response from my selswaper but I did in fact find someone to take over my contract with my celltradeusa listing.

My 2 cents...
