Merging two existing individuals to another existing family plan?

Has anyone done this? I think I have read that any existing AT&T device can be upgraded to iPhone, with an extension of 2 yrs on each cellular number being upgraded. But moving in-contract individuals (2) to merge with an existing family talk plan involves terminating the two individual plans, doesn't it? Is there a penalty for this? Anything else I should know?
Thanks for any help.

That's interesting. I just got off a support agent chat with "Cingular, the new AT&T", and they didn't mention the $18...
But the did say, that the 2 individual non-iPhone accounts, can be upgraded to iPhone and merged into another existing AT&T Family Talk plan, as long as they are in the same region. And these caveats exist... Each number upgraded and merged into the family talk plan will have its in-contract commitment extended by 2 yrs. And, each iPhone must purchase the appropriate data plan, which are in and of themselves, not-shared.
Hope this helps others, and thanks to bnbzone, and others who commented.

Educator discount on existing family plan?

I recently was hired on at a university. I've submitted the appropriate Verizon form to find out what percentage I can save on service. While I wait on the answer, I have a question that I hope the community will be able to help me with.
Can I add the educator discount to an existing family plan? If yes, does my name need to be the billing name? If the educator discount cannot apply to the entire plan, can it apply to just my particular line?

Hi there Simon_berube!
Oh how I love discounts! I'm excited for you to get word back. When it comes to employee discounts you have to be the account owner (main name) of the account.
If you're not already, that's easy! We have a process called an Assumption of Liability where the current Account Owner provides permission for you to take over the account into your responsiblity.
Then we can apply your work discount.
Hope that clears that up for you!
Thanks,

Procedure for Porting Existing Family Plan Line into a Different Family Plan?

Currently my partner has his line on a friend's family plan. I'm looking to set up a new (I'm not an existing customer) 2-line family plan of my own and then port his number into my plan (which will, of course, cancel that extra line on his friend's plan).
Can I go ahead and order my family plan with two lines and handsets on the VZW site and then at a later time work with his friend to get his number ported onto the second line in the family plan? Or is there a better method to go about getting that line on that other plan moved onto my line on my plan?
Kindly,
Gordon

Does he want to keep his number?
If so, you will need to do an Assumption of Liability to take over financial responsibility for the line. Basically, you call in or visit a store with the current account owner, and a Verizon rep will take you through the process. There is no fee for the AoL, and Verizon will do a credit check. You may have to pay a deposit depending on the results. The current contract will also come over with the line, so unless it is currently eligible for an upgrade, you will not be able to buy a phone at a discounted price until it reaches month 20 of its contract.
You can either do the AoL, establishing your account, and then add your new line and switch to a Family Share Plan, or set up your account and then do the AoL. There's no real difference.

Transfering existing number to existing family plan

I have my own personal Verizon account and my family said they would add me to their AT&T family plan when I got an iPhone.
I want to transfer my verizon number to the iPhone, which I know is possibel through itunes.
But does the online iTunes activation allow for you to transfer an existing number with Verizon to an existing AT&T account?
I hope so, as the family member with the AT&T account lives in another state. So hopefully it doesn't involve anyone having to physically go into the store.
But if it does require a visit to an AT&T store, do they need the actually iPhone with them? Hopefully not, as I'd have the actual phone being activated.
Any answers is appreciated. Thanks.

Be advised that ATT may not let you add an out of state number to a family plan in another state. For example, if you have a NY number and you are trying to add the number to an account that is based in Atlanta, ATT will not let you do that because, according to them the markets are different.
To be on the safe side, you can call and inquire but I'm pretty sure they will tell you the same thing.

Why am I in collections? I'm a current customer on a family plan.

I have been an AT&T customer since approximately 2004 and still have the same number I received when I first joined. I merged my account with my partner's number into a family plan in September of 2014.
Even though AT&T has notorious network issues, we stuck with you guys out of the belief that the network was always, in theory, improving, and also out of customer loyalty: even though AT&T’s network is not perfect, the customer service used to be quite good, and any issues I ever had had always been resolved by calling your customer service team.
Even though I had been a customer with AT&T for a longer period than my partner, we used my partner’s number as the main number on the plan because he is a law school student. It made sense for us to save a little bit of money where we could.
What a mistake. The moment I merged my account with his, I essentially ceased to exist at AT&T. My number now shows my partner’s name and not my own when I call other people. All of the instruments that I used to employ in the maintenance of my account – the AT&T Wireless app, text alerts and automated calls, and the online account center / webpage to see bills and balance etc. etc. etc. were all disabled as of the moment my plan was merged with my partner’s. No one, from the sales team to the customer service people, informed me that this would happen.
In other words, the exact moment I merged my plan with my partner’s, I lost the ability to be notified of and keep track of any balance remaining on my original account. AT&T disabled those services in the same instant I joined my partner’s family plan.
The process of joining the family plan involved paying any outstanding balances (which we both did as a pre-condition to starting the family plan as directed by the sales agent). However, there apparently was a prorated balance on my original account representing the period of time in the billing cycle before it was merged. In other words, AT&T collected the previous month’s payment from me, but they did not collect the prorated portion of the current month I was using, which amounted to $81.12. This particular problem did not happen to my partner, because his current balance was still recorded on his bill and was taken care of with the next payment. My balance was not reported, because it was my plan that was merged with his.
Even worse, the “family plan” we joined turned out to be even more expensive than our individual plans and resulted in an increase in our monthly billing! As a result, I spent extensive amounts of time (6-8 hours total) in September of 2014 with the AT&T retention team, who, in turn, customized a plan for us and convinced us to stay with AT&T. And the agents I spoke with at that time, including one Deborah Stroud in the retention department, were absolutely outstanding. Ms. Stroud customized a plan for us and informed me that our first joint bill would look pretty jumbled as it accounted for a series of adjustments that resulted from the merger of the two plans, as well as the subsequent changes to those plans.
She stated at that time that even though it was confusing, by by paying that first large bill we would be all set and within a month our monthly bill would drop to approximately $170/month, which it did. Naturally, both my partner and I assumed that since the two plans were merged and we paid the discombobulated and confusing first bill, we were all set. And no one at AT&T ever said otherwise. How was I to know that my old (now disabled) account still had a balance on it? There was no way I could have known. As of the moment the family plan began, my number has been nothing but an offshoot of my partner's - all of my personal information and access to my balance was removed in its entirety by AT&T.
This $81.12 prorated balance I mentioned before, however, lingered on my old disabled account. Even though I have the same number that I have always had, the internal disabling of all of AT&T’s web services for my old account meant that this balance was never reported to me. (AT&T insists that “a letter” was sent. It’s pretty remarkable how uniformly all agents insist on this point, even though no such letter was ever received by me. Certainly no one has mentioned any followups letters. So all of this problem comes down to one letter that may or may not have been sent and was in any case definitely not received.)
Six months later this small balance was sent to a collections agency and once I received notice from them, I called in. However, since I am still an AT&T customer on a family plan, I'm so perplexed as to how this could have happened and I do not understand why the AT&T staff is so reluctant to help me resolve this issue. I have never heard the phrase "I can't" so many times in any other customer interaction I've ever had.
When I called AT&T in June 2015 to resolve the issue, the agent stated that this was obviously an oversight resulting from the merger of the plans and that this happens all the time (a few agents have confirmed that they have heard this before and that family plan mergers were a known issue for a while; Frank Harris in the retention department said that these were known issues that have now been fixed so that it’s not a problem for current customers and mergers. This fix does nothing for me, because my merger happened last September prior to these changes and AT&T will not acknowledge any part in this. The AT&T agent with whom I spoke said that all I had to do was call the collections agency and make the payment and the balance would be removed from my credit report “the following month.” In fact, he said I was “just in time” to have it removed. I did exactly as instructed and, again hearing nothing from AT&T (although I again should have become suspicious when I did not receive the confirmation in writing that had been processed) I assumed the matter was closed.
I just received my updated credit report yesterday from Experian and this $81.12 balance is still on there, now marked "closed" as if I generated a bad debt deliberately and paid it off. I have now spent nearly 10 additional hours since yesterday trying desperately to resolve this issue with both the agency and AT&T. You guys are treating me like I canceled and went to Verizon when in fact I'm still an AT&T customer and have been the whole time.
The agency tells me that this account belongs to AT&T and only AT&T can instruct them to remove it from my credit report; AT&T insists that the balance belongs to the collections agency and that no one at AT&T can help.
This just can’t be right. The situation borders on Kafkaesque - I’m an AT&T customer and have been the whole time since this family plan was created last September, and for another ten years before that. This just can’t be how AT&T does business. I can't believe it's part of your corporate strategy to entice people to stay with you on family plans and then sending these unreported balances to collections. What a bungle!
Why did the sales agent not mention this prorated portion of my month to me when we started the plan? Why did Ms. Stroud not mention it to me when we had our plans adjusted last September? Why did AT&T send only one "letter" (again, unreceived by me), disable all of my apps, and make no efforts to reach me or my partner at our numbers, which have always been the same?
I am so disappointed and appalled by the total apathy bordering on rudeness from their customer service team. Ironically, my partner and I joined this family plan and stuck with AT&T out of customer loyalty, and now AT&T is damaging my family’s financial situation by reporting this negative mark on my credit. This balance would have been paid immediately if AT&T had simply contacted me or my partner at the same phone numbers we have always had.
Now, after speaking with all of these people (I can only imagine the notes on my account, based on the way your agents speak on the phone) AT&T is apparently completely unwilling to take any responsibility or do anything to help me resolve this mark on my credit. At no time did AT&T reach out to me at my number, or my partner’s number, nor did they send us any emails or alerts of any kind to notify us that there was still a balance on the account.
I am so disappointed that AT&T would treat me, as a longstanding customer, this way. Not only that, but I am also disappointed that AT&T has jeopardized my family’s financial future over an $81.12 balance that they failed to report to us.
I have already contact the collections agency as well as the credit reporting bureaus. I have spoken with Don in the collections department, "Sherrell," , Frank in the retention department, Jalanai and Aaron in the customer service department, and "Mollica," one of the social media managers. I am waiting on three calls back that I'm doubting will ever come.
I want so desperately to resolve this issue and be done with this. Please, tell me what I can do to have this taken off of my credit report. I'm currently reaching out to Senator Warren, the Federal Trade Commission, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, the Department of Consumer Affairs, NY and Massachusetts state attorneys general, and Consumer Fraud Legal
Services.
Someone, please, recognize this for the inadvertent error that it is and fix it. It's an $81 balance that has been paid already, and AT&T seems willing to lose both me and my partner over what appears to be a very minor issue. I'm so confused by how this could have happened.
Thank you for your time.

Switching to AT&T from a T-Mobile family plan

Sorry if this has been answered before, but my searches haven't found an answer to this particular question.
I currently have two phones under a T-Mobile family plan. I want to transfer my phone number to AT&T with the iPhone while the second phone stays in T-Mobile under an individual plan (don't need the family plan any more).
If I plug in my iPhone to iTunes and request for my number to be transfered, will it work? What will happen to the other number? Will it get cancelled?
Thanks for your help,
Julian

My phone number is the "main" phone number of the family plan in T-Mobile. I'm afraid that as soon as I do the switch the secondary number may get disconnected right away (T-Mobile will not tell me what will happen exactly).
The reason I don't want to keep the family plan is because I'm only moving my number to AT&T. The secondary number will stay with T-Mobile as an individual account.
Regards,
Julian

Does a "family account" or merging application exist on itunes?

Does a "family account" or merging application exist on itunes? If so, how can I access it and merge my account with another's?

I do want my daughter to be able to download apps or updates to existing apps even when she is not with me, but that doesn't seem possible without sharing passwords.
That is indeed not possible. She'll either need to re-acquire all those apps through her own iTunes Store account, you'll have to give her the password to your account, or you'll have to do all the updating for her.
Regards.

How to link Two existing Opportunity in CRM

Hi experts,
How to make link between two existing Opportunity using CRM_ORDER_MAINTAIN doc_flow.
If there is any other solution to link please let me know. And what are all value I will have to pass in FM that also please let me know.

You can just create the links without using the CRM_ORDER_MAINTAIN. Use the function module BINARY_RELATION_CREATE.
If you still want to use CRM_DOC_FLOW_MAINTAIN_OW, you can get the data to be input to by studying the ET_DOCFLOW from an existing transaction (Opportunity) that has a valid link to another transaction (Opportunity). Use the report program CRM_ORDER_READ and explore the data sets. Once you know the contents of the DOCFLOW set, use the same values in your maintain module.

One class map to two existing tables

I have two existing tables, inventoryTbl and supplierTbl
inventoryTbl has following columns:
inventoryIdCol ( Primary Key )
inventoryTypeCol
inventoryAmountCol
supplierIdCol ( Foreign key to supplierTbl )
supplierTbl has following columns:
supplierIdCol ( Primary Key )
supplierNameCol
supplierAddressCol
I have on JDO Class called inventory which want to map to the above
two tables.
it has all these fields:
inventoryId;
inventoryType
inventoryAmount
supplierIdCol
supplierName
supplierAddress
How do I implement it?
Question 1:
Notice Kodo DTD has fk and join extension. Can I use them to implement?
If so, could you give us an example? there is no example in the Kodo
package.
Question 2:
Notice Kodo Developer guide mention the key-column and ref-column.
But by definition, they are only used for Collection/Map field type.
My case is neither of them. they can not be used in my case?
Question 3:
Any other way? Kodo developer guide mention the 'custom-mapping'
extension. How do I use it?
thanks,
John

Answer 1: There are no fk and join extensions. They are used in our
reversemapping process. Kodo 3.0 has more verbose extensions (if
you want to look at that (beta) version's documentation).
Answer 2: You won't need them to map your situation (see later)
Answer 3: I would suggest against this... it is not a trivial task nor
well documented and WILL change with our upcoming 3.0 release (which is
far easier to customize and documentation-wise).
All those things being said, short of trying out Kodo 3.0 which is in
(early) beta form, the easiest way is to map the supplierTbl to its own
class. Note that this class does not have to be exposed at the
application level. For example:
public class Inventory {
private Supplier supplier;
public String getSupplierName () {
return supplier.getSupplierName ();
public void setSupplierName (String name) {
supplier.setSupplierName (name);
One can do more funky stuff using javax.jdo.InstanceCallbacks (jdoPostLoad
() and jdoPreStore ()), however, I find the above strategy to be the
easiest as it doesn't require any JDO dependencies in your application
classes as well as requiring a lower level of undestanding of the
PersistenceCapable lifecycle.

Combining two existing forms

I have created two different forms that I need to combine. Whether I have someone fill out Form B is conditional on an answer within Form A. It would be nice if, at completion of Form A, the user could be sent directly to Form B. Is there any way to do this with two existing forms instead of re-typing all the information every time I need to apply Form B to future forms?

Is it possible to use Aperture to make a new image from two existing ones--ie, in a new jpg? I essentially want to create a collage that I can then print as a single image, rather than in a book. Any advice will be most welcome!

(Added)
The main point is that Aperture is used to make digital negatives as good as they can be (for the uses you define), but it does not ADD date to your digital negatives, nor does it produce NEW combination files. For those tasks you need a Graphics program.

Transfer unlimited data from My broken iphone 4 to an existing iphone 4s on my family plan that just has the 2gb shared data.

I have 5 phones on my family plan. One of which is an iphone 4 with the 30.00 unlimited data plan. It broke. So now I would like to switch that number to another phone on my plan, the iphone 4s. The iphone 4s only has the 2gb shared data with the other 3 phones. Will I lose the unlimited plan by switching iPhones? I also am on the month to month contract with the original broken iphone 4 and I don't want to go into another 2 year deal with verizon right now. Thanks for any help. There are soooooo many old comments about this but I can't seem to find any definitive ruling from verizon or otherwise.

Still hesitant on this...:/. I have all 5 lines active. Two are month to month contracts and that includes the iPhone 4 unlimited data and a Samsung note 2 with 2 fb data. The other 3 lines have later contract end dates and are pay data as used. All five share unlimited texts and 1400 minutes. The iPhone 4 broken has not been used and I forwarded the calls to the iPhone 4S with the 2 fb data. So basically I have a dead phone with unlimited data...useless.
I am thinking of just canceling all 5 phones. (The bill is over 280.00 a month). And go to metropcs with the unlimited data with 4 lines at 100.00.
The only thing stopping me is the termination fee which. I am getting to the point of ...whatever. Port i love you and miss you very much. Mom numbers that I want to keep and end verizon completely.
Another speedbump is the service I get here is exceptional. No dropped calls..ever...a little slow.at times...but always available.
If I could just transfer the unlimited to the iphone4s I would stay but I can't see how to do it since all five lines are booked up and I can't get a sixth to do a transfer to.
Any help. Thanks. I

Will Family Plan change affect existing NE2 credit?

I have an older family plan. When I attempt to upgrade any of the phones, it is forcing me to select an individual plan. I assume I just need to change my plan to the current family plan, prior to the phone upgrades.
If I do so before upgrading, will I now lose my existing NE2 credit?
Thanks,
Jim

Your primary line should not lose its NE2 credit, but it may impact the value of that credit. If the new plan costs less, you may now only be eligible for a smaller credit. You should call into CS to confirm the impact of the changes before you make them.

Can you have two existing iTunes accounts?

Can you have two existing iTunes accounts?

I'm not sure what you mean since there is no such thing as an iTunes account. There's
1) AppleID account you use to log into the iTunes Store
2) A collection of media tracks which is what you see when you open the iTunes application on a computer and is called a library.
Yes, you can have multiple of either. It doesn't make sense for most people to have more than one AppleID, and definite disadvantages. You can have multiple libraries. Hold down the option key while starting iTunes to create a new one or swap between them.
