When are you permitted to?

 

[ZOFOURTWENTY]

how much of a discount do you guys get? must be steep if they dont want you to get one

Just walk into apple and buy one, unless you are waiting to get some discount or something.

It's not that Verizon employees cannot purchase them, they cannot activate them on their demo lines.

Walking into Apple and purchasing one won't help in this case, sadly.

That sucks.

Idk why they wont let you buy one its not like there is a super high demand for them they have plenty in stock.

Ain't that the truth. I understand on launch day and what not but I am sure everyone that wanted one already has one.

Don't understand VW.

I totally agree.

Wish I knew when, but they will let us know when we can. Which will be the day of.

So if you got one before they told you it was okay, would you get fired?

Getting one isn't the problem.. Sure, it can be purchased full retail with no problems.

VZW isn't letting employees activate them on demo lines. Which I mean, the system won't let the activations go through..

when the 5 comes out. lol But seriously that does blow. Everybody has them in stock so cant see why they wont let you guys buy them.

Ahh okay, I gotcha.

Do you guys even get discounts?

They can get service at a significant discount, 1 year contracts; and equipment at 2 yr. contract pricing. In exchange for that, they have to put up with limitations at times as to what equipment is available to them.

They may also have their accounts treated as traditional retail customers, and get no discounts...

Me neither. D@mn them and their excellent coverage.

What is this? I don't even..

The silly thing about that, particularly at this point, is if a Verizon Wireless employee carries one around, it's a good part of marketing.

Can I ask you a question as a Verizon Wireless Employee? Why does there seem to be so much miscommunication amongst reps when it comes to information? Get one answer from 1 and a completely different answer from another to the same question. The iPhone pre-launch was a perfect example of this

that's rough!!
Why do they do that??
