I used to work for them... Why won't they give them to him? There must be more to the story.

Hm well most of the time when the account owner(the main person one the account) get the free upgrade for the iphone they dont always do it for the other people on the account. Att is very **** about the iphone, but what he could do is get the iphone at a large discount...

I believe only the line that is eligible for the upgrade can get the discounted rate for the phone. The other line has to pail full price for it. If both lines are eligible for an upgrade, well both can get the discount.

Now ATT is willing to do 2 for the upgrade but its up to the stores manager to give the final ok. Our local store manager said NO. WTF?

Well the last time you got an upgrade at a discounted price you signed a contract saying that you understood you wouldnt get another phone at a discounted price until xx-xx-xxxx date. Can you blame them for not giving you an upgrade just because?

Go to a different store. OR call in to att customer service and have them write in the notes for the account that they are eligible for both phones free. When a Manager at a store sees that he has to obey the notes in the account regardless of what he wants to do.
