You should get the code when you receive the phone in the mail NOT weeks after. Then go to the Trade in site and you will be emailed the Gift card code 4-5 days later.

So I ordered mine last night at midnight on verizonwireless.com. I paid full retail for it, so my question is, will that code still come with my phone? Or did I have to specify a trade in when I bought it? And if the code does come, am I able to use it even though I paid full retail price or is it only valid on a 2 year contract? Any help you can give is appreciated.
