Smile HOW TO: Get a TM AAA member discount 12%

12% AAA DISCOUNT, JUST FOR ASKING

If you are an AAA (American Automobile Association) member (not necessarily an employee) you can get a 12% discount off your "Current Recurring Charge".

There is no need to make any changes to your current contract or plan.

Repeat: There is no need to be an employee of AAA.

If you have added lines in the past month (back date) or will do so in the future there is no charge for new phone activation.

The date of your payment will change to the 27th of the month, the same as all other AAA members under the program.

The discount will take effect in 30-45 days depending upon the cycle of your current contract.

The discount may change based upon the any revisions to the current AAA program.

> Call 877-453-8824 (daily from 8am-6pm EST)
> Ask for the 'AAA discount'
> You will be asked for your master TM phone number (for example, if you have a family plan) or your phone number (if you have a single phone plan).
> You will give your AAA membership number from the front of your AAA card.
> You will give the phone number of the AAA local office listed on the back of the AAA card (for verification).

Congratulations! That's it!

For a list other organizations and companies that have a discount program with TM:
do a google search on the term "877-453-8824", and perhaps include the name of the organization or company that might have the discount.
The search will produce a long list.

That's what's up. Will it work with other discounts? I'm currently getting a discount from freelancers.org. Will this cancel out my other discount?

Select your best rate, any port in a storm.

Sorry, I don't mean to hijack this thread but besides AAA, corporate, and student discounts, what other discounts are offered by T-Mobile for regular schmucks?

Schools, companies, unions can negotiate a discount with them. so check with any organization you are associated with and see if they offer a discount.

Need to change phone number to "877"

Just want to say THANK YOU!! for writing out all the instructions, I was too lazy prior to today even though I knew about the 12% discount, but you made it so easy.

Not only was it easy, but the CS rep I spoke to was extremely nice and she looked on my account gave me two activation credits for family plan accounts I activated in May, even though I had done activation rebates on them! I am getting a $76 credit on my bill that is due in 2 days, then switch to the prorated new cycle, and hopefully after that bill, the 12% will kick in.

I paid $54.95 for my AAA membership last night online and then ordered a Triptik for our vacation in 10 days, which will be really cool to keep the kids busy in the car looking at maps, etc. (GPS took the fun out of that for me lol).

Also found fantastic discounts using AAA at places where I shop all the time, so this was a steal of a deal. My car came with free roadside assist so I never considered checking into AAA before this.

I didn't have to give my local AAA office number, just the membership number.

VZ does not list AAA on the following list, but there are others:

12% is only on regular plans... not the loyalty. You might have it attached to loyalty but it will only discount the stuff like text an data, not the minute package.

So do your math before changing to any loyalty plans

Just did it myself. I only took a few minutes and now I'm saving $9/month. Thanks a bunch for the tip. CS has always been great to me with T-mobile... a little too perky at times...lol
