There's more to it than that....

You need length of service with AT&T

How many lines

How many added features

Account standing

Primary or secondary line

business/FAN account

and the list goes on...

- iPhone 3G bought on the launch day and exchanged 3 times within 2 weeks of the release
- With AT&T since original iPhone
- Single line
- Cheapest plan (~$85/mo.)

I have had the 3G since Launch Date.

My account is in good standing.

I have 2 iPhones, a Blackberry and 2 normal phones on my account.

My bill is WELL over $200 a month.

I have been a customer since the StarTac was THE cream of the crop for cell phones.

I am still getting quoted at the highest prices there are. ($599 and $699)

Other people with less, like Poosh for example, are getting better quotes than me.

Whens the last time you bought a new phone at a fully subsidized price on the account?

 

[cWeems]

same as dude up there, i have 4 lines, since mine is the main im eligible 7/12. the other 3 lines wont be for a while though.

You mean a fully discounted phone?

Man...

Unless there is a way to actually check that online I would be hard pressed to remember.

But I am guessing it has been at least two years.

But maybe not since my upgrade date is 3/10/2010.

I will probably just wait until July 2010 to get the next iPhone that comes after 3GS.

I am not one of these that is all angry are cursing.

I am more just curious.

I don't get how some people are getting discounts earlier?
