I bought mine using the X Plan as a legit participant. Everything I read about the X Plan at the time was virtually identical to what this said. Thats why I was so amazed when I discovered all the people sharing pins on the net. I figured it was only a matter of time before they put a stop to that.

Hey everyone, I think your mis-reading the info above. The items above are ONLY about X-Plan Partner Purchase Plan. For the Friends & Neighbors plan, that is under the A/Z Plan details, as only Ford employees and retirees can give X-Plan pin numbers out. X-Plan employees can't give out PIN numbers, and that is why its not listed above. Nothing to worry about.

GTMark052

Well thats really good to hearSee that, we were worried for nothing Thanks for straightening us out Jeff

I was wondering why people were complaining about "not being able to share X-Pins" because each PIN is assigned to a specific person with a specific SSN (last 4 digits) and other personal info. You can also get X-Plan PINs by owning at least 1 share of Ford's stock (ticker symbol is F).
