Canada iPhone 6 thread!

I'm assuming it'll go there, get sorted, and come to Canada. Looking at packagetrackr.com it'll arrive in Texas on the 17th. Expedited shipping would get that back to Canada in time, I hope.
I've never seen UPS do that before. I think it's more likely that it's someone else's order.
iPhones have wonky shipping paths from what I remember from other years. Assuming he used the reference number on his order idk why it would be wrong.
Could be coincidence, but it does match up with the time I placed the order.
Either way, we'll see in a few days.
Mine's headed for Fort Lauderdale first so Texas doesn't surprise me. We'll see later on in the week, though.
Thanks!!
So I made a little calculation
Buy the iPhone 6 outright : $859 (64GB) + HST and that'll cost me $970.67
Let's say I stay with Wind for 2 years with no contract.
Wind: $35 + HST x 24(months) = $949.2
949.2+970.67 with a total of $1919.87
Fido with Tab24: subsidized iPhone 6 64GB $375 - $150 Fido Dollars
subtotal of $225 + HST = $254.25
I paid about $82/month that includes the $30/6GB
82 x 24
with a subtotal of $1968 + 254.25
that makes a total of $2222.25
...damn I'd save roughly $300..guess I'll have to go to Wind and get the 6 outright
I was doing the same calculations and feel like I should go with wind. I pay just under a 100 per month for unlimited talk in Canada and USA. Unlimited text to Canada and USA. $30 for 6gb data, 15 for iphone value package, caller Id visual voice mail.. Anyways total cost after tax is under a 100. I'm happy with my plan except rogers is forcing me into a new contract.
The $60 wind package appeals to me and I might get the $10 add on for a total of 10gb of data. The only thing holding me back is the lack of lte .
Is that a concern for anyone? And can you talk and get data at the same time?
He used a partial order number, it won't be his phone. If you could track it, you would only see Louieville, KY, Mount Hope or Concord. Since they are moving through UPS's supply chain in crates, there are no associated tracking numbers yet. As was the case in the past, they will not be trackable until they are sorted in Concord or other regional facilities in Canada.
Mine's headed for Fort Lauderdale first so Texas doesn't surprise me. We'll see later on in the week, though.
The fact yours isn't heading the same place as mine makes me think it isn't my phone. At this point they'd still be batched up, going to the same place, I would think.
Nothing to do but sit back and wait, either way.
Well, no, not his phone precisely... I should have clarified that I got this from other threads here on the forum, such as 'Track By Reference'. Perhaps it's wrong, but all indications show that they've used these prior years and it's been accurate. I think the idea is that it's the overall batch or shipment coming over from China. I imagine later on it switches to the full reference number.
Either way, not a big deal and no way to tell either way if it's correct or not at this point. I saw it in another thread and thought I'd mention it here because I knew people had been looking.
You're not completely wrong, it will eventually give you the right tracking but partial reference does not give you the right result, there are many Apple orders that would be visible just changing the number slightly.
It only works in the U.S. because the carriers have their shipments already and are direct shipping to customers.
Same here. Phone was in Support Profile since at least when I checked on Sunday (could have been there earlier not sure), and my credit card was charged this morning. Everything looks good for a Friday delivery.
You needed to go into the find a store section. I've just looked and it appears that Apple has removed this option from what I can see.
My Plus is not showing up in my profile yet. I did have an issue with payment that I sorted out on Saturday so my process might be a little behind.
I'm sure yours will deliver on Friday as well. To be honest I have no reason to believe we won't get our phones (6/6+) on Friday. Everything looks like its a pretty good bet. All I'm worried about now is whether or not the 6+ is right for me. Luckily I reserved a 6 for pickup Friday morning so I'm going to try out both phones in store before deciding. I'm about 80% 6+ right now.
I ordered both models on Friday morning and only the Plus is showing up in my support profile. I called Apple and they said I would for sure get the Plus on Friday and they couldn't confirm the 6. I just checked my profile this morning and both are there now. Still surprised we haven't received shipping notifications yet... I guess we'll get them tomorrow and it will be 2 day delivery. Can't wait!
Yep, or even today for that matter. Pas long as your delivery date still shows 9/19-9/23 I think it's a safe bet it'll be here on the 19th. I honestly cannot wait.
Anyone pre-order from Bell
Hi anyone pre-order from Bell? I just switched to bell and went in the store on Sept 12th at 8am and ordered Silver 64GB iP6+.
This is the message I have for checking the status: Your iPhone is in the order queue. We are experiencing very strong demand and cannot guarantee your delivery for September 19th. We expect to receive weekly shipments from Apple, so please check back regularly. Please note, it could take up to four weeks for delivery. We will advise you as soon as your phone arrives.
Anyone else actually get a shipping date from Bell?
Wondering if anyone else has got updates, most people seem to be buying from Apple directly.
