Default does tmobile offer a discount for teachers?

my friend has ATT and told me that she went in yesterday and got a 15% discount on her monthly bill for being a teacher. Does tmobile offer this too?

Tmobile does the same, but not as generous as AT&T.

I have had Tmob for a long time and did not know that. I am a teacher and now I am going to call tmob and ask about that discount. Does anyone know what % it is? I know Sprint offers one also, I get crap from them in my mailbox at work all the time.

You may want to check sprint out. When I was looking to leave Nextel with them I was getting 21% I looked into Verizon they only offered me 21% off the 1st line of service.Att was only 19%. Sprint is giving me 25% off the total bill! And you get cheaper rate plans than the other 3. I'd look into if I was you JMO. Goodluck!

Id weigh the discount against the Free MyFaves...see which would benefit you more...lower plan rate w/ myfaves or % discount.

You can get a discount by getting a free membership at
Freelancers Union :: Platform for an Independent Workforce

They will give you a member #, then go to the TM link on their web site to get a 10% discount on service and products

WARNING --- give freelancer a throw away email address, and imitation phone#, otherwise we have heard you will get a flood of unwanted emails
