What is the process for employees to order thru telesales, and can they do it using their discount?
I ask because i have a friend of mine who works for cingular, but they're fairly clueless about these kinds of things, and he works at a call center and not a store but wants to order a 6682. Do they just need to call telesales and give thier id# or something?

If corp employeees want to excerise their employee discount on equipment, it must be done at a corp location. There is not an option to purchase through telesales, your friend will just have to wait until the store gets them in stock.

If your friend is a corp employee, your friend should know where to find this information. Its on the main page of "my cingular" and he or she will know what that is.

Yeah I found that out yesterday, I was trying to get my 6682 through my account rep, it'd been $20 cheaper, no contract extension, and no $18 activation, but they didn't have them in store, and I didn't wanna wait. Although I really think if she gets any at her store within 30 days I'm shipping mine back to telesales.

Yep, take your badge into a store, 30% off retail. I have bought a couple of phones that way allready.

I strongly suggest you take a part time job with IBM, or, even better, General Electric.

I'm former blue retail and we don't have any badges. I supposed I would be able to buy a phone with my discount from another store or a co-worker but the boss has said we are not allowed employee discounts yet??
