ORLANDO, Fla., Aug. 22, 2011 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Wireless carrier Sprint, a AAA partner since 2001, has joined the motor club's Show Your Card & Save Program® to offer members additional discounts and benefits on wireless services.
AAA members now qualify for a 10 percent monthly recurring discount on new line activations on select Sprint plans and waived activation fees valued at $36. Members also are eligible to receive a $50 credit with an online purchase. AAA member benefits for Sprint wireless services can be accessed at AAA.com/Sprint.
"We are pleased to announce our expanded partnership with Sprint to assist AAA members in managing household budgets," said Gail Acebes, director, AAA Partnership Programs. "At a time when saving money remains a priority for many of our members, AAA is committed to expanding member discounts on everyday purchases."
AAA members also receive free FindMe(SM) services which allow any AAA member who is a Sprint subscriber with a newer phone to have their GPS location instantly transmitted to AAA Roadside Assistance when calling for help. AAA FindMe does not require any special downloads or apps. Members can subscribe to AAA FindMe by registering their Sprint mobile phone number and AAA membership number for free at AAA.com/AAAFindMe.
