I was able to add the U200 code for an additional 200 monthly minutes, but the rep I talked to had no luck with any SMS code.

I will try again, but I feel like I won a minor victory will the free 200 minutes.

Are those anytime minutes? 1st gen iPhone? Just curious.

iPhone 3G and they are anytime minutes. They are added to my totals monthly with no need to call each month to re-add the code.

I have the $109.99 plan with 1350 minutes. Now with the code OLAM shows 1550 minutes.

I do have a FAN account, so I do not know if that matters. YMMV.
 
No that's not correct. I have the same plan as you. I also have a 1st gen iPhone.

I pay the $20 a month for unlimited data and 200 texts.

I would call them and get it fixed ASAP. Then add other codes.

so wait, does that mean that i've actually been getting a deal all this time? it sounded too high to me... but if you're paying $20 a month for data and 200 texts and i'm paying $30 for data and 1500 texts, that means i'm only paying $10 a month for 1500 texts instead of the $15, right?

yes that is the rate for the 2g iphone
 
Did they say what the code was for the 250 text for $3.99?

it just another option when you ask them to put in the code, they give you the option for 250 texts or 1500 texts. so you choose which one you want with that code. That's how it was for me
 
Can you add multiple codes to a FAN account? I already have the TMS4 code added and I feel like the 700 minute plan is enough for my wife and I, since her entire extended family and part of mine is on AT&T. If, however, we end up going over a little each month I'd love to be able to add the U200, too.

okay, so what you're saying is that the pricing is correct... i am paying the correct amount. it's just that they should be listed separately instead of together? and if i were to apply this code, i would only be saving about $1 a month, correct?

Looks that way, yes.
 
Can someone please confirm if they were able to get the 1500 texts and the 200 free minutes? And if so which 2 codes they used? I would love for this to work for me.. :D
 
Can anyone confirm whether the F300 actually provides free unlimited text messaging? Seems too good to be true..
 
F300 does not work as far as I know.

You have to be a FAN member to get these feature codes.

Scroll up five - ten posts and the codes are listed

U200 - bonus 200 minutes
tms4 - 1500 txt for $8.99

Call in and say you want to add a "FEATURED CODE". That is very important. People calling from landline seems to have more luck.
 
Well i just called to get the discount applied and came up with some interesting stuff. I have a Premier account through my university. I have the 5 dollar 200 text plan and the iPhone 3G data plan.

The guy was applying the discount then got an error saying it conflicted with another plan he had to remove. So he removed the other text messaging plan and tried again then got the same message. He asked around and realized that it was the data plan that was conflicting and that he couldn't take it off obviously. He then said I could upgrade to 1500 text messages for 10 dollars more. I asked how much that would be. He said "30 dollars." I'm like "WTF." Then he said it would be 30 dollars with the 3G data plan that's why. He kept saying the 1500 messages would only be a 10 dollar difference for me.

What's up with that? My 3G data plan is only 20 dollars?

that's kind of bizarre. it may not really be worth my time then since whenever i seem to try things like this with cell phone providers, it turns into a giant hassle.

so will any of those codes on that page work? i'm trying to find something that could save me a few bucks a month on my bill because $80 is quite a bit... (especially when i was paying half that with sprint before i switched)

Log onto your att wireless account and check the details and see how much your getting charged for everything.
 
I am currently looking to get the iphone 3g family plan, I have a few questions, my company allows me to get 20% off my bill but I was told that it wouldn't qualify for iphone, it works with any other att phone and plan except the iphone I was told but I haven't tried it yet, so I like to know if anyone is getting any money off their bill thru their company?

also for family plan will I need to do TMS4 for each line? meaning $18.00 total 8.99 plus 8.99?

I already have sprint but I want an iphone just think the plans are a little high.

please provide feedback. thanks.

It won't work for the iphone, but it qualifies for the iphone 3g. We have not seen it on our bills yet because it takes 1-2 cycles before it kicks in. You will need to pay $8.99 on each of your lines. The iphone is a luxury not really a necessity. A cheap phone with the cheapest voice plan is capable of making calls. See if the cost is worth it to you before you buy it.
 
I can confirm that both TMS4 and U200 both work; had them added to my account this morning:

I'm sorry if this has already been asked, but does the TMS4 (or TSM4, which ever the case may be... people are still posting both) code work on family plans as well?

I'm a single (non primary) line on a family plan with a FAN discount. I just added TMS 4 yesterday.

Rememember that you'll probably end up having to call 4-5 times since there is so much misinformation around among the CSR peopel. No matter what they say, you CAN add it to your line. Just hang up and call back.
