Apple has taken payment on a 4/6 week delivery

Troll, Troll, ohh wait.... Was this one real? I am just on automatic troll response to protect myself from disappointment. Lol

FFS...

It's a drop in an AVAILABLE balance. Transactions take 1-2 days to show on your statement after available drops.

Don't worry about proof - I'm not convinced that someone who got charged for two watches - one in each group - are actually getting the second one earlier. Seems more likely Apple just charged for the whole order when the first one went through.

I hope I'm wrong. Has either changed to preparing for shipment yet?

The evidence seems conclusive, but I'm still reluctant to believe it lol

People who may know... does publicising my bank balance leave me at risk at all?

No.

Was your pre-authorisation for a different amount from the cost of the watch? Looks like £509 on your pre-auth charge.

I don't think there's any upside to publicizing any of your banking details, just to try and convince anonymous people on a forum of something (especially since many will still claim it's fake).

I've had a bank balance be used as proof that I was talking about my account in the past, though that was definitely after I already had the account number and everything. It was also many years ago.

I don't think it's worth it. Just send me the watch when you get it and that'll be proof enough for me.

 

[Jsmil009]

Not after ai hit this transfer button it won't. Lol JK As long as you don't have identifying account info you should be fine. Send me your account number and pin so I can double check for you though. Lol

This seems to be about the same time people were getting hit with charges yesterday. My wife got charged for her 38mm Aluminium yesterday around 5:30EST with a wave 1 delivery. I'm guessing I get a notification today around that same time for the charge on my wave 2 42mm Space Gray Aluminium. If not, I'm seriously not going to be happy that I ordered hers first...

 

[rolexwatch]

It's really plausible that we will shortly see a lot of 4-6 week orders move forward and deliver this or next week, since there were some cancelled orders due to the 2max rule.

 

[Brookzy]

Well, here's my orders... this simply isn't provable, so this is all I can do.

Watch 1: 42mm SS Milanese, 24/4-8/5

Watch 2: 42mm Sport White, 4-6 weeks

 

[appleboyy]

Both mone appear to be have charged too!

Got a 24 date and the 4/6 weeks too

Prepare for disappointment. I don't think the second wave will see any change until the 24th.

Things just got interesting!

Hi, Pre-auth was for £1. I paid £50 from a voucher the rest on Amex. Cheers

 

[heeloliver]

oh god, now I want to keep checking my bank. I probably shouldn't though, considering I ordered at 4 AM.

 

[ZMRoach]

And now I wait for someone with a SS Link Watch to change it's status... Sadly, since these were always 4-6 weeks, I highly doubt that combo is going to be ready for Friday.

 

[c1phers]

Those getting charged who are in the 2nd delivery window (4-6 weeks) seem to be UK people. Were any of you US orders?

wait till about 4pm EST.

 

[Brookzy]

It seems that some who had a watch in each group got charged for both, so who knows what that means.

I thought they might be doing that - charging for the whole order in one go, but:

• This was two Apple IDs
• This was two separate cards (albeit connected to the same billing address and account)

 

[digduggler]

Curious to see how this shakes out if there is movement in the 4-6. I was late (12:40 PST) but got a generic model (white aluminum). So I know I should have no hope, but........I am a sucker.

 

[MultiMediaWill]

Looks like USA folks will be in for a surprise later... hopefully

same order. ridiculous though since is really promoting the link SS in ads, website, etc. unacceptable if it was never available on launch. my order was at 3:03 am

I sure hope so!

I ordered a 42mm Sport White Band at about :05 and got a confirmation a few mins later with the 4-6 Week delivery window. Getting it early would be a wonderful thing.

I even called Chase and made sure they authorize a charge coming from Apple just to be safe.
