student discount

blackeagle113089 · Thread Author #1 11-29-2009, 10:02 PM

can someone tell me how the student discounts (UF) work on the Even More & Even More Plus plans? I keep getting two different answers on how much they are and if they are applicable or not.

thanks

Please let me know which college you attend and I will look it up for you. There is no discount on EM+ plans, only EM.

Should be 15%
New 10-15% T-Mobile Discount for University Employees/Students

my 15% discount is so much better than with AT&T, because it applies to my WHOLE plate (data, voice minutes, PHP bundle) instead of just the voice minutes. T-Mo = 1 AT&T = -3242332

Just checked the fat wallet site. Any idea of when/if they'll be adding more schools?

NorrisCell · #8 12-03-2009, 02:45 PM

Just confirmed. It's 15%

More schools will be added soon, but they're lowering the discount for all schools soon as well. If you go to a qualifying school, get the discount added ASAP. It's going down to 6%.

Kind of off topic, but maybe not that off......but if I have the 15% student discount on my plan will it stay on there until I cancel with Tmobile, or will they at some point take it off automatically?

Any discount you get will stay until you cancel service or specifically call and have it removed. Also, if the discount percent changes, you will keep the old rate.

Great, thank you NorrisCell!

Is this only on t-mobile?

Every company has its own set of discounts for various companies, schools or other organizations.

^^^^^^ agreed. discounts vary by organization, and application varies by what you have on your plan.

This sounds like spam. Student discounts on monthly rates are offered ONLY by the carriers. No special website can do it if the carrier doesn't.
