FDX Employee Shipping Discount Question?
I have been using the shipping discount for years. I've always gone to a FedEx shipping location and manually filled out the airbill. Has anyone set up their employee account online so you can print out the shipping labels? If so, are you still getting the discounted rate?

Set mine up nearly 15 years ago. It has never failed and I always get the discount. Use My FedEx all the time and like highflyer said, you can see exactly what the discount is when you look at your billing history.

Pretty easy to use to make airbills. Nice little trick I do is I'll print a completed airbill to my harddrive as a .pdf file, email the .pdf file to whoever needs to ship something to me - ie. recently for some engine parts for a project truck - when they are ready to ship, they call FedEx and set up a pick up!

When shipping using a company discount calling for a special pickup is a no no. Got a call a few years ago about that. I was ordering something from a place that used UPS and I gave them my account number and they called FedEx to pick it up (which FedEx did) and I got a call about it. I told them I had no idea how the shipment was handled and I never heard about it again.
