Employee Discount Program

[alcohols]

Hey guys,

I switched from ATT to Tmo last week opened a family plan with 2 g-phones ,and carried my numbers over; but now I just found out I do have employee discount, what I'll get:

$40 discount on handset
12% off monthly bill
1 yr contract (instead of 2)
wavied the $35 act fee

I called the biz customer care, they said they cannot credit me these things to my existing acct, except the 12%off. The only way is to return the phones and cancelled everything, and redo the whole thing thru this discount program, but I won't able to keep my numbers (but I do need these numbers)

So does anyone know another way to do this?

Thanks

There is no other way. You were supposed to have these discounts be put on your account at the time of opening the contract.

When I called the lady had no problem waiving my fees after the fact. I'd call them back because it can be done. I called the number on the corp discount form.

Hey everyone check it out, I found this information searching google on how to get a 12% discount on your bill.

Pm (http://www.mycardblog.com/2008/08/how-to-get-a-discount-from-t-mobile/) me for link

As of today, 1yr contracts are no longer and option. No negotiating, 2yr or nothing.

[Jet]

Um yeah, I have been with TMo for 8 yrs and I am STILL 1 year even if I upgrade a gazillion times. I made it clear to them, 1 year or me and my whole business goes to Verizon.
And you are who?

[WazzuKirk]

There is a business representative for your company from T-Mobile. Find out who that is and they will be able to get the credits on your account..

Yes, as a company and an existing customer of course they'll bend over to retain you. I'm a new subscriber and for all new subscribers they only offer 2yr contracts now. One of the big perks of going through Tmobile business accounts is that they only needed a 1yr commitment.

That ended today and screwed me over. Kicking myself in the a** cause I was going to order Friday but decided to wait the weekend.

[Jet]

Oh I see, well you know what? Tmo isnt that bad, I mean look at their plans and compare it with others. 2 yrs with a 12% discount is still better than paying full and getting a 1 year contract, go for it.

[atoy74]

9 outta 10 times I'd agree with you except I'm currently on Sprint's SERO plan which means I get the world for $49.99. The 12month commitment was the right amount to tip the scales. Now, I have to really consider.

[Jet]

1 more thing to consider is your signal strength, 3G or edge? At home and at work, what is SERO? Sprint does not have good reception up here in MD, Verizon owns this land lol.

[atoy74]

Signal strength is a non-issue. Both services offer excellent coverage here. SERO was a friends and family option that everyone had access to..it just wasn't advertised.

Basically SERO works out like this -
1250 Anytime Mins
Free Nights & Weekends (started at 7pm)
Free Mobile to Mobile
Unlimited Data Plan (Yes, you read that right)
Nationwide Roaming

All that for $49.99/month. Unfortunately, offer ended around July.

It funny I am a Sprint employee and I have t-mobile. anyway my friend has the sprint sero plan and even though that plan expired, if you sign up for any sero plan i or they can change you to that plan.
