Union Members Can Save on New iPhone 4 Wireless Service

 

by James Parks, Jun 27, 2010

Union members who purchase a new iPhone 4 from AT&T can save $198 over their two-year contract on a basic monthly service and data plan (450 minutes and 200MB of data) with the Union Plus AT&T discount. Members who buy higher rate plans can save even more.

 Union Plus, which provides consumer benefits to union members and retirees, has raised to 15 percent its discount on all new wireless service through AT&T, the only union wireless provider, just in time for the release of the new iPhone 4.

The new iPhone 4 goes on sale June 29 at AT&T stores and at UnionPlus.org/ATT.

Even if you choose one of AT&T’s many other phones, you’ll still save 15 percent on the regular monthly rate on individual and family plans and you’ll help support the 40,000 union workers at AT&T wireless.

You can find a local AT&T store or shop online at UnionPlus.org/ATT.

    Sorry I can’t buy a product from a company that condones virtual slave labor for the people that produce those products. This week end I read that conditions are so bad in China that the people who work in the plants that make i-phones are killing themselves! Welcome to Capitalism Red China! So I think I’ll stick with my pokey old equipment.

      I’m interested in getting some pokey old equipment, myself. Exactly where did you find some made by American Union labor?

      For the last 15 years, EVERY piece of mobile hardware I’ve seen came from overseas. If the choices are basically Evo, Droid, or iPhone; I think I’ll go with the iPhone, despite the shoddy non-3G coverage in most of rural America. Moreover; I won’t buy it from anywhere but an AT&T store from a CWA sales clerk.

      The last time I purchased a phone; I had to leave, wait a day and a half, then come back, since the only CWA clerk employed by the store just finished her shift and had the following day off. I’m glad to have done it! What some trade unionists consider consumer inconvenience, I prefer to call fraternal solidarity. Perhaps the next time I go in; the other clerks will have gotten the message from all the other trade unionists in this area, and I won’t have to wait so long. But I’ll keep on for as long as it takes.

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
