I was a bit disappointed to see that there wasn't an option for the iPhone Upgrade Program when preordering a 6S last night. :/ I contacted support this morning and it is only something offered in store. Anyone else run into this issue?
Here's my plan on getting this reconciled: I’m thinking I might be able to talk them into an "exchange" sometime after 9/25 (but within the 14 day return period). Due to limited stock in stores, I would just keep my device that I preordered. On their end, they're "returning" the device, refunding me the unlocked full price (which is what I preordered), and then reselling it with the upgrade program.
It would be kind of ridiculous if this isn't something that can be done in store. I’d be paying them a lot more money by getting AppleCare+ (which I didn't get with the preorder), committing to Apple for at least the next 2 years, etc. etc.
Thoughts?
