Microsoft Windows 7 Student Deal - $29.99[FULL - NON-UPGRADE]

[DeadlyFire]

I have a .edu but I'm not a student. Very interesting. Think it would work? I just bought Win 7 Pro OEM for about $110 more, but I have another PC that needs it.

I hope the deal sticks around b/c in the fall, I'll have another .edu from another University. $30 is CHEAP!

From what I can tell the customer rep asks for the email and tests to make sure it's active(ie: it can receive emails) and then asks for the rest of your order info. At the end you'll be told that an order confirmation email has been sent and that's all. You don't even need actual access to the email address, it just has to be able to receive the email from microsoft.

UPDATE: I logged onto my microsoft store account and looked at the transactions. That dumb Bioch, 1st tried to run a double order at retail price $654 on my card. Then she ran a single $327 order on my card and after all was said and done she never fixed anything!! She simple ran ANOTHER $32.76 on my account!!

When I logged on to my account there were over $1000 in charges for W7 pro pending!! Needless to say I called them back and had them cancel the first 2 orders. Which took all of 30 seconds to show up as cancelled on my account. Thank god for a phone rep that actually speaks english!! She actually asked ME " how did she (meaning the other rep) do this?" I said "HEY! its your guys employee, you tell me."

totally F'ed up.

I've found that if a customer rep seems clueless, tell them you'll call again later, hang up and redial and wait for a competent person to answer.

Took me about 5 tries. Some say that the deal is not for the "full" version while others don't know what to do and simply redirect me to the website.
