Re: Hero $29, Moment $29, Pre $0 & Mifi $0 on Ebay

Update.. I did call a Sprint rep from BUISNESS sales about the ACCENTURE discount on a hero phone thru that BlueFishWireless.net post.. and they are confirming the phone is $29.99 for the HERO. No when I placed THAT order the original way where you needed an "accenture" email address... well. let's just say I got creative and paid for an email address that resembled the accenture email scheme.
---
So the ticket said "Awaiting Customer Approval" ??

So it's 1:16pm on Tuesday and they just needed a valid email address so i game them the spelling of my email addy and she said it should process by tommorow since it was too late in the day today.
-----------------------------
I will keep you all posted on how this plays out. MAYBE the above HIERARCHY CODE gets u in the system THEN you go the original way via sprint DOT com/accenture to order your phone i guess... But like I said lets see if I get thru first.

(P.s I said 25%.. when it's supposed to be 27% percent discount. Sorry for the typo.

Re: Hero $29, Moment $29, Pre $0 & Mifi $0 on Ebay

I just made up my accenture addy and well, I got 3 heros for $29 each now, no additional billing on my sprint bill, and the 25% off now as well, lost my 15% ohh well,.... now what am I going to do with the 2 touchpro 2's I have... I really dont want to sell them, but cant see myself going back to winmo, can i back door them onto sprints internet and use them as lil notebooks? without having to tether or wifi them?

The reason why they want us to provide them with an accenture email when we make our purchase is so that they can call SPRINT and have them change our accounts to the ACCENTURE discount plan. like OP mentioned, they will not care if it is a legitimate email address or not. they just need it to call sprint and cover their butts that they were provided an accurate info from us in case Sprint asks them about it. Here is the solution for those who are worried. This is the easiest way and fastest.

Call Sprint at 866-853-4931 to convert your account to Accenture discount plan. Just tell them you are in the process of upgrading your phone and you were told to call to convert to your new corporate discount. Tell them right away you were given a HIERARCHY CODE.-- NAAND_ZZZ_CRI -- by giving this code, they will not question you wether you work for Accenture or not. Once this is done, you can submit the order or just call in. Your account will convert into ACCENTURE discount plan immediately.

This will save them the time calling Sprint and converting the account themselves. once they see your account as Accenture account, they can place the order the same day. I converted my account and place the order yesterday and getting the phone today. talking about procrastinating for christmas gift for my wife.

Oh and ofcourse, you have to convert your SERO plan to an EDP to do all these.
I just called the number and applied the discount to my account... mind you i placed my order on the 30th and the ticket is still in the '"open" status... so im just hoping tomorrow they will hopefully get to my order and see that im already on the accenture discount plan and SEND the phone already... helped them through a step i guess.

I recommend doing this asap, it takes 3 mins. Make sure you tell them you have a hierarchy code before they ask for an email or even the code for that matter so they wont even think of an email... and if they did (kinda) like in my situation, they wanted an email to send the confirmation, i pretended my home email (my only primary email) would be better than work email, the rep said that would be fine.
What if you already submited an order?

Re: Hero $29, Moment $29, Pre $0 & Mifi $0 on Ebay

Just wanted to let everyone know that I recieved my $29 Hero yesterday. I used the first.lastname@accenture.com for business e-mail. Everything is up and running and hope you all have success with this deal! It did take about a week for them to process the order. It took 2 days for shipping.
