这篇攻略是讲如何利用WUSTL和AT&T协议,把开户时交的激活费(每人$36和一大堆fee和tax,一共40多)统统要回来。如果是5个人的family plan的话,
可以要回$200多,可以去吃大餐了~
咱们学校跟AT&T等运营商有合作,所有WUSTL的employee和students可以享受10%~15%的折扣。(来源网址:

这份协议里不仅包括了折扣,还包括了fee waiver,其中包括万恶的激活费。下面我把自己激活折扣、要回激活费的过程一步一步写出来,造福后人~
1. 进入AT&T的promotion页面:
https://www.wireless.att.com/businesscenter/business-programs/college/index.jsp ,在Student & Faculty那里输入我们的wustl.edu的邮箱;
2. 然后页面变为“Good News!You're eligible for discount”,并把注册链接发送到我们的edu邮箱里;
3. 点击邮件里的链接,然后要选择折扣类型,students和employees对应不同的code。
这里楼主建议最好选employee的选项。因为students的选项月折扣低于employees,而且不确定是否有fee waiver;(据楼主朋友说,选了Student没能要回激活费)
而且AT&T对employee的界定很宽松,TA和RA毫无疑问是算数的,我还有个朋友大二本科,给大一的课当grader,也被算作employee了……
更重要的是,
一个family plan里面,只要holder本人是employee即可。所以,holder们加油吧……
4. 下一步,选register for discount,输入一些个人信息和AT&T电话号。一定要学校的edu邮箱,然后会收到确认邮件,再填写一些个人信息,至此激活步骤就完成了。
5. 大概等几天时间,登录ATT时就能在首页看到 You're receiving **% off qualified charges。以后每个月的基本话费(不包括data)都会有折扣。
6. 然后就可以跟客服要回激活费了,可以去营业厅、打电话、或者在att的网站online chat,这里推荐用chat。最后,楼主再雷锋一次,把我当时的记录贴上来吧。
