So Are you in IUP already?
I went to the same apple store today around 1pm. The apple specialist insisted that she can't sell it to me because I'm not in IUP yet. Then I asked another guy, and he told me the same thing...
When she scanned the reservation QR code, it only says trade in on her device. She didn't know what to do next and canceled my reservation. Does any one know what I should tell them to make it work?

There's a section in the reservation email that says you can use other methods of payment. Show them that section, and ask to speak to the manager.
 
The guy who helped me had the same trade in page on his device. He asked another sales specialist what he needed to do and stated that he would need to leave that terminal and go to the regular terminal as they normally would when selling iPod, macs, iPads, etc. So he was able to do that and scanned the barcode on the box and marked it as "device only".
Thanks for your information! I will try it again tomorrow at Soho store. Hopefully it works this time..

But since I'm not in IUP at first place...They have the right to dishonor it...
 
I bought my 6+ outright and was never able to use wifi calling or hd voice with it. Would rather just wait for an at&t model
Weird. Only difference is sprint/VZ model have cdma. Given that they might have better resale value?

You could always buy it and see if wifi calling and hd work? If not return?
 
Hello.

I'm using cricket. In my local store now available AT&T phone. I'm trying preorder it, but Apple asking me information for At&t account, like number, zip code, last digits for SSN. But of course I don't have it. How I Can preorder AT&T unlocked, but I don't have At&t account? Thank you

You probably can't then. Just reserve one in stores using the IUP.

Welp tired of waiting a few plus phones came in stock at a Apple Store a hour down the highway from me. At 11:30 none the less. Of course none from the store 10 mins from me lol.

So it was either a matte black 32 or a 128 silver. I really wanted to give the matte black a shot this year and had to think fast. I'll be fine I think. My 6s plus which is a 64gb only has 20gb used, I have 1500 photos on there which actually needs to be cleaned out. Prior I used to struggle with a 16gb 6+ which was a struggle. I think I'll manage with a 32 since I'm on the upgrade every year program & I stream all my music.

They already charged my card the tax and the first month anyway, well its pending. Beggars
can't be choosers I guess, at least I finally got one. This will be my first time with Applecare so I may go without a case or at least a bumper. Otherwise that almost makes the matte black not as exciting & i HATE clear cases. I kinda wish apple still made the bumpers lol.

Just purchased a 7+ 128GB MB to pick up at my local apple store in SoCal tomorrow NOT using the IUP link. Looks like some west coast stores have updated their inventory early!!!

Can anyone confirm that T-Mobile wifi calling will work on a phone that originated as a Verizon phone ?, also, what about when the carriers send out the occasional carrier setting updates.

Best way would be to hurry and reserve it using the IUP link at your local Apple Store. Pay it in full so it will be unlocked.

You, my friend are awesome. I was able to cancel my existing IUP delivery order (Oct 12-18), allow my AT&T eligibility to reset, AND place an order to pick up a Black AT&T 7+ 128GB at the Chestnut Street store in San Francisco for tomorrow evening. Muchas gracias.
