I have attempted for two years to receive the teacher discount via the Verizon id.me. It has never worked … It does not work … Why not?
Just an FYI, I'd change your forum username by going to the "edit profile" section of your forum profile, because your current one is a privacy and spam risk.
Not sure why that discount isn't applying, but if you already have some other discount in place, discounts are not stackable. While someone at Verizon could change out your discounts, I'd compare any discount you are currently getting with whatever the teacher discount is before getting it swapped out. It doesn't seem possible to switch things back, so tread carefully.
