but it could be a fraudulent account and you could get in a sh*t ton of trouble.

plus if it isn't, you phone is going to be ringing 24/7 with every little minor issue that he has.

you will regret it.

I hate B2B. There is no RAE support because B2B is "supposed" to handle these sales. 👿

VZW caps us at 49 lines. Anything higher has to be referred to our account manager and the business team.

Now, here's my beef. Who among us has 400 phones in stock...especially in a "booth"? Were the phones Overnighted? I'm still calling BS on this one. Like it or not. I'm not going to fight about it. I'm just not going to buy it.

The trick is to do them in small batches, spread out over the course of a few months. My employer only pays me UP TO 200%, then its capped, so Id make bubkus on like, 300 of them

Id sell him like 50 a month..lol, be good for the year.

He said all 400 are DONE...I find it difficult to believe...lets see, 400 handsets, in a "booth"...porting...I guess the OP hasn't posted since Friday because he's too busy programming handsets...

I also noticed he works for Alltel...now I really find it hard to believe he got a 400 line trucking deal...

look...it honestly doesn't matter who believes me and who don't...that is the great thing about the internet, the one typing is really the only one who knows...i never said you have to believe me, that is completely up to you...by the way...i didn't have 400 units at my booth, i had them two dayed to our other store...they all have temp. alltel numbers...yes me and my boss and a couple other associates are manually programming EVERY phone by hand (actually it's done over the air so it is a lot easier)and finally, no my boss did not cap me, why should he? the more i make, the more he makes...maybe that will help some of u better understand...but like i said, if you don't believe me...cool......i still sold 400 phones

thats amazing. you will be stuck with this guy for 2 years calling you about everything so be ready. and dont expect to able to take care of other customers until he is happy b/c you really are his b*tch. but like you said, who cares. you just made enough money that you can sit on your a$$ for the rest of the quarter!

thanks....kinda first half is the way you see it, second half is the way i see it...i would much rather handle problems from someone who just made me thousands of dollars than someone who didn't even get their phone from my store...so good point

i feel ya dude.....did you talk to your boss about pay out tho. i never thought about capping but i think they are right. you should check so you dont get screwed.
...

Nov 6, 2007, 3:35 PM
yea, i made sure of that...he told me he wasn't greedy enough to cap me, i made the sale, i should make the money...like i said, the more i make, the more he makes...so its good for all of us in the long run
