AT&T Premier and Applecare + Question

[leitmotif]

The company I work for uses AT&T for company phones and from what I understand it is a "Premier" account. We pay for our own devices and the company pays for the service.

I pre-ordered my 4S through them and asked for Applecare + (which I would pay out of pocket and offered to do so). The person who handles the orders for the company informed me that there is no way to purchase Applecare + through Premier. Is this true?

As I understand it, + needs to be purchased the same time as the phone and now I don't know if I'll be able to get it. I also would love to call this person out of their B.S. because I'm not the only one who doesn't want to get screwed on not being able to have applecare +.
