If they trying to verify your employee discount can't you leave them because it would be changing your contract? I haven't been working for the company that I get my discount at (27%) since 2007... and I was an intern at that.
If they want me to confirm that shyt now, I'll just leave em. LTE lit up in my neighborhood and it's around 8mbs, but hell, if I lose the 27% I'll just go somewhere else, maybe TMobile
Aren't you from Chicago? When did LTE launch?
