Does Your Cell Phone Provider Offer An Employer Discount?
We have had U.S. Cellular for 8 years and for the majority of that time we have had a military discount of 10% on the account.
My husband was recently in having his phone swapped out and the sales rep informed him that because of who our employer is, we are eligible for a 20% discount instead of the 10%.
Does your cell phone provider (if you have one) offer employee discounts? If so are you eligible? And how much?McD

An update: This discount decreased our bill by approximately $30.
That's a $360 per year savings.
