Teacher discount for the authorized user

Hi

I was told by one of the customer service representative that teacher discount could be applied even if the authorized user is a teacher (doesn't have to be the actual account holder)and she further stated that if anyone says otherwise they should look under the resources that are provided to the agents under teacher discount page. 

Could you please confirm.

Thanks

This is primarily a customer populated for him so we cannot confirm that. The only time I'm aware that this works is for military discounts because often the military persons spouse must manage and own the account.

@lizdance40 The reason it works for military is the spouse is eligible for the discount too. As far as I know, the account owner must be eligible for whatever discount, including the teacher discount.

Okay, thank for clarifying.   

Can't imagine why anyone would swear to incorrect information (like it's never happened before)
