i am both a verizon wireless and residential customer.   back in late summer a salesman came to my home and talked me into switching to verizon.   i now get a discount for the wireless end of my bill but the resdiential bill.   i have submitted paperwork to corp such as dd214 and no response.   i am constantly referred back to the phone center   i have talked to over a dozen service reps includng supervisors and believe they do not understand how frustrating this is.   verizon website shows you have to be an employee of verizon and then directs you to veterans advantage a pay site that verizon i think gets a cut from.  it would cost me $5 a month to join this.   this is a communications company and i try to get them understand if im getting it on wireless plan why not the residential side.  i am a lifetime member on DAV, VFW and member of American legion, AARP, AAA    i dont need to join another organization.   why does verizon do this.   when my contract runs out im going back to comcast or satelite  please if any of you know how to forward this complaint to the proper person i would appreciate.    when i was sold the next contract back in the summer i was told i would get the military discount on both ends   so far just the wireless portion   thank you

Wireless and residential are two different dvisions.

Looks like Residential gives it to those that are a member of the group as you said.

Like giving a AAA discount.

Doesn't look like Comcast gives them either.
