Unfortunately, that is not true. It is ANY ESN swap for ANY reason will reset
it. The ONLY way they will honor something different is to get a corporate
manager [NOT in the store] to put an executive note on the account.
Hopefully, at the time you actually try to buy the phone with the discount,
they won't give you too much of a fight when they tell you that you do not yet
qualify and you say, "but I do, please take a look at the notes".
