So-called discount for being a state employee

Was anyone, who uses the state employee discount, made aware that the corporation does not honor the discount for "up to two billing cycles"? I have looked and there is no mention of this caveat in any of the advertisement and it was especially not disclosed by the sales staff at their store front. I go into contracts with my eyes open and accept it on whether I deem it worth the cost. This "cost" was not brought to my attention until AFTER I called to inquire about this situation. Thanks, in advance.

I am not a state employee, but a employee through a company that has a discount with verizon. I was told upon signing up i would also receive a employee discount. I received my first bill it was not on there, i returned to the verizon store and asked about it. They replied it will take a couple of billing cycles to be applied well a couple have passed and still no-show on the discount. As stated above i was not informed of the delay upon the intial purchase or conversation. So being in good conscience and a person who abides by the truth. it took you 14 days to bill me, why has it taken over 3 months to apply the discount. If you are overworked and have to much to figure in then I guess i can assist. I will subtract the employee discount from the bill each month myself. and see how long it takes for them to notice. probaly a day after I pay i would assume.

For being a student, do I get a discount on an iPad?

For being a student, do I get a discount on an iPad?

There are no student discounts on iPads. I got a small "discount" on my iPad purchase by buying on-line (not from Apple) and not having to pay state sales tax.
Apple only provides a small discount on bulk purchases by schools.

Discount for employees of a business.

Why did my discount go away if I still work with a company that has discounts even though I sent proof that I work as a franchisee with that company? Does this not extend to franchisees? Are we not part of that system doing business?

You posted on a peer-to-peer customer forum. I do not work for Verizon. I am a customer just like you. Trying to help.
You didn't answer the question that I asked.
Do you have something that indicates that you are employed by a business which has an agreement with Verizon to provide a service discount for their employees?
If you are not an employee of a company that has an agreement with Verizon to provide discounts to their employees, then you would not be eligible for a discount.
BUT the way that you are able to determine if you are eligible is to apply (either in a Verizon store if they will take the information or on Verizon's website). When you apply, that's when the determination is made.

Discount for employees

hi, I read that almost all phone companies(att, tmobile, sprint etc) give discounts to organisations/retailers they are associated with. Is this true? and If I come in to bestbuy and purchase a phone + plan would i be eligible to receive that discount on the spot? If yes what info do i need and how is the discount calculated by different organisations?
P.S are bestbuy employees elibible for discounts offered by these companies?

All carriers do offer discounts for many companies. The amount depends on which company you work for. BB should be able to determine what the discount would be, and may be able to apply it. This is not a guarantee, though.
Also, keep in mind that the discount will apply to the plan, not the phone.

Discount for High school students

I think it's really cool that college students get discount for spotify but it would be great if high school students could get the same thing , it would be amazing to being playing music wherever we want for a low price and since I find spotify better than pandora. $5 is extremely affordable for high school students and a lot would sign up for that price if that was an option

I am 17 and currently attending highschool as a senior.
I agree 100% $9.99 per month is kind of steep when you have a $9.10 /h job and paying for gas/insurance/food/housing/etc... I don't have anything handed to me at all. Sure my parent's will buy me a see's candy once in a while, but I am paying for most of my things now. My job pays for ~~ 90% - 95% of my necesities. that would leave me short.
Here is a pitch:
Mind of a teenager ~ 10 dollars per month would add up to 120$ per year I use this.... that's a problem.
-after the fact-
Mind of a teenager ~ $5 per month!! omg that's only $60 per year! sure I'll pay for that.
Honestly I would garentee you my 5$ per month if I had access to premium. $10 is just too much.
I can tell you that I know many highschoolers who would agree with my point and say that the sales would be exponential.
talking business:
I would expect (based on comments and suggestions from friends and information of who I know as a highschool would also subscribe) expecting 30,000 highschoolers per small state and 50,000 highschoolers per large state.
currently to me it seems only 5,000 or 10,000 highschoolers per state own spotify. (most people lie about information on "free sites")

Post-Capitalization of Cash Discount for Asset

Hi,
We are in ECC 6.0 and have activated Document Splitting.
Further, have provided asset field in Define post capitalization of cash discount to assets in Document Splitting of SPRO.
After the both, my expectation is to see the entry as stated by SAP in the scenario of Post-Capitalization of Cash Discount for Asset.
But unfortunately, the discount amount is not being capitalized on the payment date, but is being posted to cash discount account.
Kindly let me know what mistake i might have carried for this.
Thanks and Regards,
Purna.
Scenario: Posted invoice for asset purchase using F-90 with payment terms as 2% cash discount if paid within 15 days.
Assume: Asset purchased on 06.01.2012 and as per the payment term if paid before 20.01.2012 i will get 2% cash discount.
Have made the payment to vendor using T-code F-53 on 10.01.2012, even though i see a cash discount is being calculated as required, but the account is an cash discount received account. Instead, what i was expecting is the asset account.
Hope, my question is being clear and i will look forward for a reply.

Hi,
Please check your config below.
IMG->FA->AA->Transactions->Acquistions->Prevent Subsequent Capitalisation of discounts...
If the indicator is set for your company code, system will not capitalised the subsequent discounts.

Online number does not appear as caller ID for out...

I have a Skype Premium account and an Online Number based in Stockholm, Sweden.
I have verified the Caller ID for my account is set for the Online Number starting with +468.
When I call my mobile phone (Swedish mobile operator), the ID appears as "Unknown".
When I call the Online Number from my mobile phone, the calling number is shown correctly.
What could be wrong?

Log into your Skype account here on the Skype web site, using the "Account" link at the top of this page. Once you log in, you will see Caller ID settings. If your number is from one of the countries whose numbers can be used as Caller ID (Chile, Denmark, Estonia, Hong Kong, Poland, Sweden, the UK and the US), you should be able to select it and save that for your Caller ID setting. If your number is from some other country, it can't be used as Caller ID when calling phones from Skype - and you would need to use a mobile number (except those from Japan or Mexico) that has gone through the two-step SMS verification process from Skype.

Look for official APPLE statement on future rSAP Bluetooth profile support

Hi,
My previous post was considered as "speculative" by the moderators (I still do not see what were the speculations but, OK, I let go)...
Therefore, I'll try to be still more factual:
_Fact 1_: current firmware of iPhone 3G does not support rSAP Bluetooth profile.
_Fact 2_: my car needs my phone to support rSAP Bluetooth profile for being able to use the built-in handsfree kit.
_Fact 3_: I cannot find anywhere an official statement from APPLE about this rSAP Bluetooth profile.
_My question_: can someone give me a link to such an official statement?
(I hope this will be considered as factual enough...

Hello. I know this is not exactly what you are looking for. But the link below is a document that informs you about current BT Profile that is used.
If you would like Apple to know about other BT Profiles needed to work with your car. Feel free to contact Apple via the feedback page below.

CHARGED TIME AND MONEY FOR BEING MISINFORMED-COMPLAINT

Today I received my Verizon Wireless bill and I noticed that I was being charge overage for data usage of $45.00 (3 X $15.00 per 250mb over). Now I've been with Verizon for over 10yrs and always loved the service and plans that they've provided until recently.I switched to the lowest plan of $45 per line w/250mb of data due to my financial situation currently. I called and spoke to a rep to see about the overage charges, but was told before I could be transferred to dept that handles that issue would need to setup arrangements to pay due amount. I let the rep know that I do have arrangements setup and should be noted. She quickly stated that my arrangements was for last months bill and I would need to setup arrangements for the current. I gave her amount and date that I would be able to pay, which she informed me that the arrangements would not be able to guarantee a continuation of my service. I asked her why was I able to setup arrangement with the previous rep for a lesser amount plus more time and my service would continue as long as I kept my agreement, but she's not able to do the same. She sold cause my account would continue to be behind cause another payment would be coming due as I'm paying off the previous month. I asked to speak to retention dept, which I was told that she couldn't transfer me, but would get me a supervisor to see what they could do for me. I spoke to the supervisor, which I again was told the exact same thing as the previous rep had already discussed and felt like I wasn't getting anywhere now. I requested to speak to retention at this point and was transferred. The young man I spoke to stated off very pleasant and when I told him my situation, seemed like he was more then willing to help. I asked for to be able to pay an amount and gave a date again, which he stated that he couldn't meet the arrangements cause would put account too far past due and lines would be interrupted at point. I thanks him for the explanation and wanted to see about setting up better arrangements. I gave another amount which was shot down again. Then he offered to suspend my account until I could caught up the bill to help me out. Really???? I let him know that he needed to be more realistic and see how you really can live w/o a cell phone in this day and era. At this point, I felt like he wasn't giving me anything to work with and was only concerned about me paying the bill. I quickly let him know that although I do love Verizon service, they're not the cheapest out there and had several other options to choose from with other providers. After we both went back and forth trying to see how wore the bigger pants, we both came to a agreement to settle my bill within 2 payments broke up. Now I've been on the phone for about 45mins and still yet to even speak to someone about the original issue I was calling about. Finally, I was being transferred to CS dept. While holding, I was able to get into the Family Base setting and set limits on the 2 phone under me to block usage once 250mb limit was reached. I got a rep by the name of Christian and explained to him about the overage charges that I was charged on my bill and that I signed up for the Family Base feature to block overage usage, cause when I switched to this new plan I was told that I couldn't block limit on data for my plan cause was too low and would have to move up to a plane with lines at least 500mb. I told him that's the reason why I signed up for the Family Base cause it stated that would block data usage once limit reach and thought would do automatically since they bill me automatically when I go over. He said that is correct, that I'm not able to set a block on data overage under 500mb. I let him know that's not the cause and that I was able to setup usage block on phone online, but again I didn't know I had too or that I could, cause I was misinformed by the previous rep, just as he was misinforming me again and asked that I be credited $45.00 for being misinformed. He said that he would see what he could do and offered to take 25% off the overage changes. I said, no I believe that I need to be credited the full amount due to being misinformed by previous rep and now him. I explained to him that I believe this new planned was rolled out before they could make some adjustments to some of the features and that's why the limit wasn't available to be set at the time I switched my plan or on the Family Base feature until a later date. So Christian then said that he could give a $20.00 credit to fees. Again, I explained to him that I shouldn't have to pay for being misinformed and requested to speak to a supervisor. He tried to tell me that a supervisor wouldn't be able to give me anymore credit and that would take a long time to speak to one. I still insisted on speaking to one. At this point, I've now been on the phone 1hr 30mins and was placed on hold. Christian came to the line a couple of times letting me know that he was still waiting on a supervisor, which I let him know that was fine. He then came back to the line and told me that he had reviewed the account w/supervisor and that they credited $20.00 and that was the best that could be done cause data was used. I asked him, if the supervisor was reviewing the account with him, why wasn't I able to speak to them as I requested? So, I'm placed on hold again and after about 10mins was finally placed on line with Kim ID#159079, so I explained my situation and feelings towards being misinformed and how I believe that I shouldn't have to be help accountable if I'm being misinformed by reps about features. From there she went right in and told me that the credit that I was giving was more than enough and that Christian went over what he was supposed to do already and that no other credit would be offered to my account. Now that I see that I've wasted my time, I asked for her ID and Christians ID info. She gave me her's, but decline to give me his and said that if I didn't get it at the time I was talking to him, that she wasn't authorized to give his cause was sensitive information...??? You're a supervisor and I know working in a call center myself, that's the reason why your given ID# so you don't to give out you true info. Needless to say I spent 1hr 51mins on the line for a $20.00 credit for being misinformed, which is less the amount I get paid on my real job. Very disappointing. Can someone please help better my situation and Verizon experience???

Simply because you disagree with the amount of credit they have given you does not mean that they will give you more, or that you deserve more. If going over your data allowance is that important to you, you should have kept better track of your usage. You can place a counter on your home screen which tells you how much you have used. It isn't up to the minute accurate, but you would certainly have been aware that you had used 4 times your monthly allowance.
Whether or not you were misinformed about usage limits being available, you used 4 times your monthly allowance. Take some responsibility, keep track of your usage. It is not hard to do.
Additionally, Verizon expects you to keep up to date on your bill. Yes, they will give you a break when you get an overage and request a payment schedule, but when you call the very next month in order to do the same they are going to be a bit more strict on their terms because they do not want this to become a pattern. If you would have taken a fraction of that overage, you could have stepped up to the next level of service and been able to cover all of your usage. This is what Verizon expects of you if you have an overage. You should reevaluate your usage habits and change your allowance OR rein in your usage to meet your current allowance. If you fail to rein in your usage to meet your current allowance, I would not expect Verizon to be as lenient with payments for a what appears to be a chronic overage patttern when simply increasing your allowance would have lowered your bill in the first place.

Long execution times for TestStand conditional statements

I have two test stations – one here, one at the factory in China that has been operating for about a year. The test program uses TestStand 3.1 and calls primarily dll's developed using CVI. Up until a couple months ago, both test stations performed in a similar manner, then the computer at the factory died and was replaced with a new, faster computer. Now the same test sequence at the factory take three times as long to execute (30 min at the facotry, 10min here).
I have recoded the execution time at various point during the execution, and have found that the extra times seems to be occurring during the evaluation of conditional statements in TestStand (i.e. for loops, if statements, case statements). For example, one particular ‘for’ evaluation takes 30 ms on the test station here, but takes 400 ms at the test station at the factory (note: this is just the evaluation of the for condition, not the execution of the steps contained within the for loop).
The actual dll calls seem to be slightly faster with the new computer.
Also the ‘Module Times’ reported don’t seem to match the actual time for the module for the computer at the factory. For example, for the following piece of TestStand code:
Label1
Subsequence Call
Label2
I record the execution time to the report text in both Label1 and Label2. Subtracting one from the other gives me about 18 seconds. However the ‘Module Time’ recorded for ‘Subsequence Call’ is only 3.43 seconds.
Any body have any ideas why the long execution time with the new computer? I always setup the computers in exactly the same way, but maybe there is a TestStand setting somewhere that I have missed? Keep in mind, both test stations are running exactly the same revision of code.

Got some more results from the factory this morning:
1) Task Manager shows that the TestExec.exe is the only thing using CPU to any significant degree. Also CPU Usage History show that the CPU Usage never reaches 100%.
2) I sent a new test program that will log test execution time in more places. Longer execution times are seen in nearly every area of the program, but one area where this is very dramatic is the time taken to return from one particular subsequence call. In this subsequence I log the time just before the <End Group> at then end of Main. There is nothing in Cleanup. I then log the time immediately after returning from this sequence. On the test system I have here this takes approximately 160 ms. On the test system at the factory this takes approximately 14.5 seconds! The program seems to be hanging here for some reason. Every time this function is called the same thing happens and for the same amount of time (and this function is called about 40 times in the test program, so this is kill me).
