Still no JB across the country
Thank you! This was how I was able to also get mine on Sunday. In other news, my preordered phone is still still with ups with no new delivery update.
He means on the POS phones used at the apple store. Some specialists are saying they need a phone traded in and can't do an outright purchase but thats simply not true.
Haven't kept up on this in a while...out of curiosity, have any JBs been spotted for reserve yet?
What's up with some stores showing TONS of stock at 12:01, then some others showing absolutely no stock? These stores are about 20 mins away, FYI. Same time zone. Both should be online at 12:01am.
You always have 14 days to return/exchange anything to Apple. And in regards to restocking fee, there isn't one on iPhones surprisingly.I was able to secure a matte black 32gb today. I am on the upgrade every year plan. If I was able to reserve one of my local store got a 128gb in the next few days. Could I just go exchange mine for the 128gb & adjust the difference? And is there a restocking fee?
Worst case I should be fine since I stream all my music and always back my photos on google photos. My past 6 plus was a 16gb & was tight, but 32gb should give me room to breathe. I've only been able to track down 32gb matte black around me. Just curious if a 128gb pops up.
WooHoo! 7+ models showing up in the Apple Store app for Chicago early.
Every single iPhone is unlocked from the factory. Once the imei is entered to a carrier's system and added to a plan with a subsidy or payment plan, it locks itself. If it's paid for in full, the phone company doesn't own any part of the phone and therefore doesn't lock it.
Also the iup phones are no different than the rest of the stock.
There are getting to be more and more reports of Apple stores denying purchase if the reservation was made through the IUP link and you dont want to to IUP. If you are able to get the phone by paying for it flat out, then yes, your Tmobile SIM will work in the phone you purchased.
If the Apple employee says they can't do it, try pushing your luck and speaking with a manager showing them the confirmation email where it says you can change payment options in store. It has worked for others with varying success.
I ran into that problem today! Made a reservation for a IP7 Plus 128GB Matte black at an Apple store 45 mins away. When i was being helped the guy was cool but looked at me like i didn't know what i was doing. I told him I reserved under the IUP link but wanted to change my payment to carrier financing (ATT Next). He looked at me like i didn't know what i was talking about. He called over another person who seemed to be a supervisor and she told me that it was only available for the IUP. I showed her my confirmation and she rolled her eyes and said that wasn't possible. She was a total BITCH to me and I was calm and cool and never raised my voice. She was on defense the entire time. I just thought well this store isn't worthy of my business...told them thanks but ill get my phone somewhere else and walked out.
Did this happen at the Carlsbad location in San Diego? that's where I got denied on Sunday and had to do a reservation elsewhere. Sounds alot like the supervisor I ran into.
Yup the carlsbad location is where i ran into the problem...THe chick didn't want anything to do with me or what I was trying to show her.
I KNEW IT! it was for sure the same girl then. what a bitch.
Crazy thing is I tried another reservation there tonight (for my gf to get a 7 plus) and she was gone, and my specialist was totally cool and when he came over he literally said "so would you like to do the IUP or buy the phone outright at full price?" so he gave us options. its totally who you get paired with!
Dang stock was not that great in North Cal

http://www.apple.com/retail/fifthavenue/Hi, Can you share the number you called to make in store reservation?
Thanks!
Just got my Black 128GB Verizon Plus on reserve! FINALLY. And to make it even better... since it's just over the border in NH, it'll be tax free.
Nope. Buying outright is your only option there.I found a sprint version at my local store but I'm ATT. Besides buying it outright through the IUP. Can I ask them to make it ATT next payment plan even though it's under sprint checkout?
