Buy online = instant rebate?
- Hey all, I was going thru my account online to check out pricing with my NE2.
After looking thru the BB section, I noticed it says "promotional credit" and not "mail in rebate."
It listed the 8830 for $50 after $170 promotional credit (I'm sure that includes my NE2). I logged out and got the same "promotional credit" and not "mail in rebate."
But then I cleared my cache and it stated "mail in rebate."
Only thing diff I can think of is perhaps b/c of my employee discount, it's one of the benefits? (I work for Walgreens). Anyone else get "promotional credit" listed?
The main reason I ask is b/c if we get the credit instantly online (thus 200 w/ 2 year), we can still use the MIR for $50 more as I've done it b4.
So in my case, I'd get it as 200- 100 (NE2) - 50 (employee discount) and then 50 MIR = ZERO
Looks like this..
2-yr Contract Price $219.99
Promotion Credit -$170.00
Final Price $49.99Last edited by phillypharm; 11-13-08 at 10:40 PM.

- I do not believe that you will get an MIR in addition to the employee pricing. It appears that the "perk" of corporate/employee discounts is getting an instant rebate in lieu of the MIR.
Edit: so in your case, it would be $249 (2yr price) - $50 instant rebate - $100 NE2 = $99.
In a few previous cases, VZW has included the rebate in the box for all purchases, so you might get lucky and be able to send in the MIR, but I doubt it.Last edited by buxleyp; 11-13-08 at 11:02 PM.
