Okay found promo and its pretty clear on the Website. You get a free LG Tablet or Up to 200 off on other tablet but must signup for Verizon Wireless. Obviously bad that this is not being made clear when someone calls for an upgrade.

The worst part is they don't tell the cost and call the monthly fee "activation", so one can be easily misled into thinking the initial $35 activation fee is all it costs. Since when is activation every month? Also, minimum tablet fee is for 2GB ($30) which is more than cell phone fee. Misleading at best.
(To add insult to injury they probably charge you sales tax in some states for the "free" phone.)
But I suppose it is still a good deal for some?

"...activate the tablet on a new 2-year Verizon Wireless line of service"
Pretty clear at least on the web site. Not a great deal but the details are shown. No comment about some of the sales representative either being unaware of details or actually making things up.
And to someone else asking do they monitor for complaints here. No Not Really. The Verizon people who monitor these boards look for things that they can do to help. They may mention that some are complaining to the other areas but that is always occurring, even when actually Verizon is not at fault. If they see a deal that does exist and doesn't appear to be being honored they will help. The ones here are actually usually knowledgeable and helpful but there as limit to what they can do.

You should have read through the fine print before you gave you in-laws the cash "donation". I believe its partly your fault for setting them up to fail. Senior citizens need help from their families. They need smart kids that can help not hurt.

never seen the ad only spoke with salesman
I was told that if sign up for 2 years for Fios Triple Play I would get a free LG G tablet no mention of sign in in for 2 year with Verizon Wireless. When I got a redemption code I went to the store I was told the only way to get it free if I sign a contract for $10.00 a month for 2 years. I called the salesman who sold me the contract he had no idea. To me this is false advertisement
