It depends. Epic on the private store is 149.00 - 50 (save50) - 30 (srt rebate) - 125 (credit for moving your number over) = oyu are getting 56 dollars back and getting the phone for free if you get it through the studentrate private store. There are two advantages to the amazon deal - 1 it is cheap up front, 2 if you are not moving your number the net out of pocket is less.
In either case -- if you purchase the phone and the service using our links we will apply the monthly discount. hope this helps.

This is a great breakdown. Thanks for the info. How come the sprint link is not available and we have to fill out a form.

The sprint private store link was available on our site to members we had to remove it per request of Sprint -- but if yo ufill out the form here -- wireless.studentrate.com you should get the link you are qualified for. we automated the process. It is one more step then normal

If I order a T-Mobile phone from Amazon, can I still call customer service after I get the phone and get the 10% discount?

No you can not. If you are new to T-Mobile and would like to use the StudentRate discount the only way to do it is by calling T-Mobile. Call 866-464-8662 option 3 and give promo code 13997TMOFAV and this will get you a whole bunch of advantatges like waived activation and free car charger in addition to the 10% monthly discount. If you use the Amazon link and get the device/service through that method T-Mobile may remove the discount later. So be safe and use 866-464-8662 option 3 and give promo code 13997TMOFAV to get T-Mobile service.

Wait, do we have to order from T-Mobile just to get the discount? I talked with a Tmobile agent through chat and he told me they would apply it if I bought a phone from somewhere else since Tmobile doesn't carry the phone I want(only Best Buy and Amazon does), the Nexus S.
And is the Sprint one still 23%?

The Sprint discount is 15-23% depending on your school and you need to be a college student/employee. T-Mobile one is what I received from the T-Mobile representative for StudentRate.

If I am month to month on Sprint, would I still be able to get a 15% discount without renewing my contract for another 2 years?

No you will not be able to do that as the migration will require a contract renewal, if you are month to month you may want to wait till another contract is in place.

Thanks for the clarification and quick reply.

The epic is no longer a penny. Although still not bad at 29 bucks.
