Apple or other discounts for disabled veterans

Does anyone know if Apple or any other source offers purchasing discounts on iPhone and other Apple products/software for disabled veterans? I am 100% disabled Vietnam era vet on fixed income and searching for discounts where ever available. Thanks.

I have never heard of anybody offering any sort of discounts. You would be hard pressed to get much discounts from Apple products though.

  • Discount for disabled veterans

    I followed all the necessary steps to apply for a discount as I am also a disabled veteran. Took my VA identification card into the store and had it verified back on 7/28/2014. Waited several billing cycles for the discount to show up but it never did. Every time I call customer service about the issue I get told different things. Like my plan isn't eligible for the discount, or I'm told I'm eligible and to wait for it to show up. I just want this resolved and a straight answer. I feel like Verizon is just jerking my chain! Do I qualify for a discount yes or no? Don't advertise that you give a discount to military and to veterans if you don't actually do it. Well Verizon, ball is in your court. Gonna do right by a disabled war veteran or not?

        Thank you for serving our country, FearedEfffect! We do offer a Military discount. Here is how to register for it:  VerizonWireless.com/MilitaryDiscount
    Thank you,

  • Does Apple have any programs for Disabled Americans?

    I am a Disabled American and due to a very limited income I have been unable to afford a computer since losing my ability to work. Is anyone aware of whether Apple participates in altruistic or philanthropic programs whereby someone like myself may be eligible for an Apple computer that I am otherwise unable to afford?  I've always been an Apple and Mac user and supporter but at this phase of my life it's as though I can enthusiastically watch from the sidelines but I feel like I can't play in the game, so to speak. If a program exists which may provide refurbished or otherwise unused products to others like myself, there is a very real possibility that with access to a computer I could even rejoin my former colleagues in the workplace. This sounds looney, but it would be a joy to feel viable enough to begin paying taxes again!  My country has faithfully looked after me; I'd like the opportunity to give back now.
    Any information available will be very appreciated!  Thanks to all...

    Your best bet would be to work through local philanthropic or servic organizations. Groups like Rotary, I believe often do such things. Also, you might try asking around at support groups for your particular disability. If you are working with a hospital or government social worker, they may also know of programs.

  • Teacher discounts for teachers with non-EDU addresses?

    I've seen a number of websites say that Best Buy will price match Apple's EDU discount, specifically mentioning teachers. However, from personal experience, I know that Apple accepts non-EDU email addresses from K-12 institutions when giving their educator discount. I was informed by somebody in store at Best Buy that this deal is only available for college students with .edu email addresses. So, what's the truth? Will Best Buy price match Apple's educator discount for K-12 teachers whose institutions do not use .edu, or is this discount solely for college students and educators with .edu addresses?

    Hi bbernardini,
    The start of a new school year can be a busy and expensive time for students and educators alike, so wanting to take advantage of the lowest price available on the latest tech is certainly understandable. It sounds like there may be some confusion between our Low Price Guarantee and timed promotions though, so I'd be glad to shed some light on the situation.
    Contrary to what you may have read elsewhere, Best Buy does not offer an official educator or student discount at this time. We are, however, able to match the price of most indentical in-stock products at local retail competitors and those shipped from and sold by select online retailers. A full list of requirements and exclusions can be found here:
    BestBuy.com > Help Center > Low Price Guarantee
    http://bbyurl.us/LPGFAQ
    As far as our College Student Deals are concerned, these limited-time offers are indeed resricted to college-bound students. For students attending a school that does not use .edu addresses or does not provide e-mail services, a process is in place to ensure they're still able to take advantage of these promotions. Regrettably, K-12 students and educators are not eligible for these offers.
    I hope this helps.

  • Disabled veteran belittled due to reduction in discount

    Went to store #347 to purchase home theater system. Saw open box TV, model LC-60UQ17U,  marked down by 50%.  As I was finishing the purchase, they informed me they would only mark it down by 20%. I asked why they were changing the discounted price. The sales person started belittling me in front of other customers and his staff. As a disabled veteran, I felt as if I were being treated as trash. I'm a 50 year old gentleman, but I walked out that store crying. I still can't believe what that man did to me and how he made me feel. You can trust that it will never happen to me again. I've already contacted both local TV stations to let them know how a disabled veteran was treated in your store.
    I could go into more detail, but I'm too upset and hurting too much from my disability.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hello reeltime08-
    I can only imagine your excitement when you saw this TV for 50% off and realized that you were about to get a great deal!  I am truly sorry to hear that not only were you not able to get the TV at that price, but also that our sales associate may have chosen to handle your questions in an unprofessional manner.
    Certainly, we expect our sales associates to treat all customers in the same professional and courteous manner.  Having veterans in my own family, I can appreciate how you may have felt if the associate chose to focus on that in his behavior.  Regardless, I’d like to reach out to the store to see if I can gather some more information and to make the store aware of this incident.  With Thanksgiving and Black Friday coming up, I may not hear anything until next week; however, once I’ve gotten a little more information, I’ll contact you via private message with any details that I’ve uncovered. 
    You can check your private messages by logging into the forums and clicking on the envelope in the upper right hand corner.
    Thank you for your service to our country and for your patience while I look into this further.

  • Is there any discount for apple apps for students?

    Hello,
    I am a student. I need to use Final Cut pro and Page, keynote and other apps. I can get all the apps free from my friends.
    But, as far as I know, it breaks copyright law. I want to be 100% legal.
    But it is impossible for me to efford that much money to buy them. So, does Apply give any discount for the students?
    Please help me dear friends...

    So, If I buy Motion 5, I will get it for life time. Even I can get updates all the time...
    Again, it depends on where you get it and how Apple continues to sell it. If you buy from the Mac App Store, then as long as Apple doesn't make some future version a new, separate app, then you would be able to get all future upgrades. But Apple could decide to release some future version of Motion as a new app in which case, as deggie said, you will have to buy it again. There's no way to know, and Apple can't/won't tell you so there's no point in contacting Apple Support on the issue.

  • After updating to Firefox 7.0.1, menu bar for Google,yahoo, Facebook (message,notification,profile,home) and others site are disabled. How can solve this problem?

    after updating to Firefox 7.0.1, menu bar for Google(web ,image,video,map etc),yahoo, Facebook (message,notification,profile,home) and others site are disabled. even I cant log out from different sites cz the log out bar is completely disabled. I tried with Firefox 4;5 and 6, same problem exist . I tried by active all add ons for facebook, same problem exist. If I use internet explorer , I don't find such problem with it.
    How can I solve this problem?

    Thanks a lot for your swift response. And sorry if it was a bit too hectic to go through my detailed query (which I did because it was misunderstood when I asked previously). As I've mentioned above, I was informed that updating to 5.0.1 would '''require''' me to '''delete''' the current version and then install the new one. And doing so will involve losing all my bookmarks. I guess I should have been more specific and detailed there. By losing, I didn't mean losing them forever. I'm aware that they're secured in some place and deleting and installing the software doesn't harm its existence. What I meant that if I install the new version, I'd have to delete the old one. And after installing the new version, I'd have to transfer them (bookmarks) back from wherever they are. Get it? When it updated from 3.6.9 to 3.6.13, and from 3.6.13 to 3.6.18, I didn't need to follow that process. They were already present on their own.
    BTW, I'm having no problems with 3.6.18 but after learning about the existence of version 5.0.1, I'm a bit too eager to lay my hands over it.
    Thanks for your help; hope this wasn't extremely long.

  • Whenever I update my iPhone software, it asks me to sign in to iCloud with an old email address.  My other devices all have the correct address.  How can I get the correct address for my iPhone?  The only Apple ID that works for logging in is my new one.

    Whenever I update my iPhone software, it asks me to sign in to iCloud with an old email address.  My other devices all have the correct address.  How can I get the correct address for my iPhone?  The only Apple ID that works for logging in is my new one.

    To change the iCloud ID you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iPhone (if you're using iOS 7), then sign back in with the ID you wish to use.  If you don't know the password for your old ID, or if it isn't accepted, go to https//appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Tap edit next to the primary email account, tap Edit, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https//appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

    I changed my Apple ID (other email address and password) and now I can not login to my account in the iPhone iCloud. When I open the tab iCloud displayed my old Apple ID (it was in the iCloud) and asks for a password, but neither the old nor the new password does not match. What to do?

    If you want to change your iCloud ID or password on your phone go to Settings>iCloud and tap Delete Account, then sign back in with your updated information.  Note: this only deletes the account and any synced data from your phone, not from iCloud.  Provided you are signing back into the same account and not changing accounts it will be synced back to your device when you sign back in.
