Well if someone wants to take over your account then you do not have to pay the ETF and they do not have to pay an activation fee. You get out of the contract without pelanty and they dont have to pay to start a new line.

With Sprint/Nextel, if you do a Transfer of Liability (COR), the person who takes over the old account may have to be responsible for paying a deposit depending on their credit history with the credit bureaus.

Yes I believe with every carrier the potential customer has to qualify for service based on a credit evaluation.

Back to the moving out of service area thing....With Verizon you will be let you out of your contract, but the way they do it is bill the ETF to you first and then once you provide us documentation (copy of lease/mortgage, utility bill, ect) then it will be credited back.
