I got a postcard yesterday from Sprint saying that since I'm an employer of ____ that I can get 20% off my sprint service plans. Just go to www.XXX.sprintorders.com.

The thing is that I never ever worked for this company. Can I still use it? Will they know / find out?

I went there and I can basically check out an order and do not have to provide a work email, social, or drivers license id.

I tried other big company names ilke www.google.sprintorders.com, www.sprint.sprintorders.com and the forms and % off (14-25%) vary. Some require a social for authentication etc.

My question is can I use the one that doesn't?

What are the companies that have a 25% discount?

Basically if you sign up for a company discount that you dont actually work for, if Sprint finds out, they can either charge you back all the credits, or actually take legal action since it is considered fraud. They do conduct audits, and if your account is picked, you'd be in serious trouble. I wouldn't advise signing up for a discount for a company that you don't work for. It was probably an error that you got the flyer if you've never worked for the company.

Sprint has such a poor record of honesty and competence when it comes to discounts assigned to accounts that I don't see how anyone could blame the customer.
