Bay Area Shoppers Can Scan a Code and Get a Free Verizon Phone

SAN FRANCISCO, June 22, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Want a new cellphone or hot smartphone? Bay Area EVO2 stores are giving away free Verizon phones simply for scanning a QR code at the front of the store and spreading the word to others about this exclusive one-time deal.

"Come into any EVO2 Verizon Wireless Premium store, scan the QR code, tell your friends about the great deal and get a brand new cell phone or smartphone," said Robert Marhamat, Vice President of Sales with EVO2. "We have a great selection to choose from, including Android-based smartphones."

During the promotion, Bay Area customers simply need to scan the QR code located on the door of EVO2 store locations and alert their Facebook™ friends about the exclusive promotion. After the Facebook posting has been verified by an EVO2 representative, customers can choose any phone in-store for free, with a 2-year new activation, after mail-in-rebate (iPhones not included).

"That's an offer that's worth hundreds of dollars," Marhamat said. "Plus if you bring in a friend and each of you takes advantage of the promotion, both of you will receive a $25 referral card. If cost has been stopping you from buying a new phone, or if you've been waiting to switch carriers, this is the best opportunity to get a new device for free. But people need to act quickly because the offer expires on June 30."

Marhamat said he expects popular phones such as the Samsung Charge, Droid Incredible 2, HTC Thunderbolt, HTC Trophy (Windows 7 phone), Droid X, BlackBerry and Droid Global models to be going quickly during this free phone promotion. Even phones that utilize the new lightning-fast 4G LTE technology are included in this very special offer.

"We love our EVO2 customers and they love us back," Marhamat said. "In order to spread the love in the Bay Area, we are giving all customers reasons to love us as well! Risk-free!"

For more information about getting a free new phone, including the state-of-the-art Verizon Thunderbolt, between June 22 and 30, please call 888-NEW-LINE or visit any EVO2 retail store conveniently located throughout the Greater San Francisco Bay Area.
