The CANADA iPhone 5 Pre-Order STATUS Thread!

Ordered my 16gb white iPhone on the app store. Worked seamlessly. Delivers 9/21-9/25. In "delivery zone 1" Montreal. Can't wait!!!

Ordered a 64GB black through the iOS app. Confirmation email came within a second of putting my password with express checkout, right at 3:01am EST. Current status is processing items..

Got a 16 through apple. But when I went to fido they only had 16s available gift from the start. WTF is that??

Where is that delivery date map from? I don't see it anywhere on Apple's site.

Ordered a white 64 GB iPhone 5 online at 330 am today.

I didn't add any accessories or notice whether or not the reported adapter was listed as included or not when I ordered. It would be sweet if it was though. This is going to feel like a very long week.

Now I need to figure out how and where I can get the new nano sim card for it.

I ordered a white 64 GB iPhone 5 online at 330 am and it is supposed to deliver on the 21st, hope that it happens that day.

Slept through my 2:45am alarm, woke up at 5am...ordered on apple.ca 32GB shipping 2 weeks. I then went to Rogers and reserved a 64GB number 16 in line for that at 5:35am

looks like I'll probably be cancelling the unlocked from Apple or flipping it when it arrives.

Got mine from Telus. Their pre-order went up a minute or two before Apple's and I decided last second to get it from them to avoid the need to go out and buy a nano SIM. Got confirmation at 3:07. The email said they'll be trying hard to get it to me on the 21st. Shouldn't be an issue - anything I've ordered online from them arrives next day.

I also ordered from telus and got the were trying out best for 21. I didn't order until 5hr after launch though.

Got my confirmation at 3:12 AM; 32GB Black with AppleCare+. At Processing Items. Shipping to Montreal (zone 1!)

Regretting not grabbing an extra Lightning cable.

I'm getting an upgrade through Bell. They're making people go to Bell stores to preorder.

You can't even preorder over the phone. Last year, I preordered over the phone and it arrived on the launch day.

Ordered from Rogers at about 6am EST. About no. 630 for a black 32gb, and no. 230 for a white 32gb.

I know it's a national rank, so I'm hopeful they both come on launch day, but then again... this is Rogers we're dealing with. If it's here by mid-October, I'll be lucky.

According to another thread, a Lightning to 30-pin adapter is included, so I am a bit happier that I didn't order one.

It is not included. Apple apparently made a mistake on the website.

Ordered a 64Gb Black from the iPhone app at 1:01am mountain time. No sim choices, hope they will be available before Friday. I ordered online to avoid the Apple Store chaos.

Well, this is my first time preorderIng an iProduct in Canada since I moved from UK.

I'm a bit annoyed with TD Bank because yesterday I specifically went to a branch to ensure that my new TD Visa Debit card had sufficient funds/was set up correctly to handle the preorder amount.. He checked my account set-up and assured me everything was good to go. Of course, you can guess what happened when I tried to check-out last night just after 3:01am -yup, TD card was declined.

I had to use my 'emergency' MasterCard which I'm not too happy about, just crossing all fingers & toes because that card is still registered in the UK. My order is currently 'processing' at least, but awaiting the dreaded cancellation email.

Does it say explicitly Sept 21? Or does it give you the range of dates?

Ordered through Rogers at around 8:45am (16G white) and I am 1131 in line. Kinda surprised on 1000 people ordered before me as its a national reservation so we shall see when it comes. Reservation took 2min so I was pleasantly surprised. My days of waiting in line for hours are over LOL

I wanted to pre-order but I didn't want to risk the shipping. Will be in line next Friday!

I ordered pretty much as soon as possible last night (using the Apple Store App on my iPhone), and received my confirmation email at 1:11 A.M. MST.
My white 64 gig iPhone 5 says delivered between Sept 21 and Sept 25.

Anyone know how to tell what number you were from a telus order?

I don't understand the SIM deal.

iPhone 4 and 4s had normal SIMs while the iPhone 5 is nano right?

How will your older SIM work in a new IP5?

I have an iPhone 4 here in Japan and want to buy an iP5 on Apple Canada because it's unlocked (I'm Canadian).

4 and 4s used a micro sim.

the new iphone 5 uses the new nano sim.

you will need to get a new nano sim from your provider.

Has anyone here gone to Bell/Rogers/Telus/Fido yet to get a nano-SIM?

Or just trim my iP4 Micro SIM down to nano SIM size.

Getting a device upgrade through Bell is kind of a joke.

You can only upgrade at a store and only for a 32GB or 64GB. My wife probably only needs the 16.

Showed up at 9:30am when the store opened and was told they had no idea what was going on and to come back in an hour. Came back at 10:30 and there was 3 or 4 people already in line and being helped. The employees seemed to be getting the hang of it and my checkout time was significantly faster than the guy in front of me. They are saying the phone should be in by the 30th, so here's hoping. I just can't imagine how many people are in front of me in the Bell system with new customers being able to order online, stores in the East opening hours before ones in Alberta and just having more competent, speedy employees.
