If you have outstanding payments on your current device and you upgrade over the phone or in store, you can choose to either:
When you’re upgrading to a new device in-store or over the phone, you can make a one-off payment towards your new device. This will lower your monthly cost.

You may need to pay out your existing MPP on your device in full on your next bill. All existing discounts (including any device discounts) or credits will be forfeited.
