Barrelhouse Bob, SASS#22663 Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 Verizon is not advertising it, but if you take a copy of your DD-214 to any Verizon store,they will scan it, and give you a discount on your monthly bill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Utah Bob #35998 Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 Make sure you block out your SSN before they scan it. Personally I'm real careful about who I give a copy of my DD214 to. It would have to be a whopper of a discount before I'd give it to a phone company. Just my view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JD Trampas, SASS # 55781 Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 Wish I knew about this long ago, have had Verizon for almost 10 years, will check it out to see if the discount is worth it or not, if only 2 or 3 dollars, not worth it IMHO All for now JD Trampas P.S. good point Utah Bob about SSN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pop A Kapoff Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 Sorry for my ignorance what is a DD-214 ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C. Erroll Madre Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 Department of Defense form 214. It's an official record of your military time, training and awards. You're supposed to get one every time you re-enlist, and/or retire. Unless you have to deal with CG HQ, then in your case you'll never get your copy! Utah - good call on blocking out the SSN. That's the reason I'm not going to file my copy (IF I ever get it) with the courthouse. Once it's filed, it then becomes a matter of public record. Anyone can request a copy. Don't like that idea much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adirondack Jack, SASS #53440 Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 The discount is 15%. Holy crackers, 15% of my bill IS worth it. Gotta swing by there soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barrelhouse Bob, SASS#22663 Posted March 10, 2011 Author Share Posted March 10, 2011 My DD 214 does not have my social security number. Apparently sometime after my service they started using social security numbers instead of issueing a military ID number. Fifty years later I still remember my serial number.

I can tell you when they did that. For 6 weeks of AF basic in 1968 I had a serial number but when I got to my tech school they said to forget it they were now using SSNs as serial numbers.
