Arcath Posted February 19, 2014 Posted February 19, 2014 One of my schools has a VPP account but I can't find where you actually make a purchase using a PO and not a credit card. Am being blind? or is there some weird procedure I need to follow?
AngryTechnician Posted February 19, 2014 Posted February 19, 2014 Despite what it says on the Apple website, only US customers can purchase using a PO at present. Everyone else has to use a credit card.
CamelMan Posted February 19, 2014 Posted February 19, 2014 AT Computers who did our initial setup offered to do the transactions for us +10% charge for using their credit. It was either this or use personal cards and claim back.
woreilly Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 Any advances on this situation? Apple (United Kingdom) - iPad in Education - IT - Volume Purchase Programme - this page (which looks like the VPP homepage for the UK to me) says you can use purchase orders...
Edu-IT Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 (edited) I've replied to your other post about VPP. "I spoke with Apple about this very thing and was told you have to jump through hoops to get an Apple purchasing account, and then if you do, it's further hoops. Apparently later on this year resellers will be able to sell VPP credit which will make it easier. Did you get a similar story?" Edited June 6, 2014 by Edu-IT
MicrodigitUK Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 I use a PO to get VPP credit via my local Apple store business department. My school has a business account with local Apple store. Interestingly invoices come from Apple in London and not my local Apple store.

MicrodigitUK Posted June 7, 2014 Posted June 7, 2014 Are you an Education customer? Yes, secondary school.
Edu-IT Posted June 7, 2014 Posted June 7, 2014 Yes, secondary school. Did you have to apply to open an Apple account, or did the local store just process it for you?
MicrodigitUK Posted June 7, 2014 Posted June 7, 2014 Local store set up the business account. Just contact your local store and ask for the business team. Someone should be able to help you set up an account for your school.
fredbayker Posted June 7, 2014 Posted June 7, 2014 "Education customers can buy VPP Credit from Apple directly by calling 0800 912 0207." Quoted from a response from the Apple VPP Support team.
