Default Employee Discount

Did you know that the company you work for may have some agreement with Verizon for a discount?

I didn't know but I can get up to 17% off my monthly fee (plans above $34.99).

All you have to do check whether you qualify or not is to go - www.verizonwireless.com/discounts and put your work e-mail address. If your company is on the list, you'll be taken to another page where you put your information and they say the discount will apply after 1 - 2 billing periods.

It's worth checking it out.

Good info on the discounts! Where'd you get that list? VZW is very hush hush about it, especially with agents!

Just about every larger size company gets some sort of plan discount. the percentage varies from company to company. some get more some get less. I have herd that 8% is the least and 30% is the most.Just all depends on who you talk to.

Home Depot at 25% is the highest I've seen. I usually deal with people 17-19%.

I'm surprised that Home Depot employees get more discount than Qualcomm, who supplies BB for 99% of all Verizon Phones.
