Sometimes, after you purchase a phone, it will malfunction, and in such situation, you can bring it to Verizon. The problem is that the returned phone should be in new condition, with the packaging intact, since the warranty should only be valid at the place of purchase.
If you received a defective phone, such as if the phone has an inoperable charger or is damaged or defective in some way, you will be able to return you phone within 45 days from the day the phone arrived. If you purchased the phone, you will have to return it within the return period.
