Didn’t they in the past 2 or 3 years let you prequalify before pre sale started so you can just check out on the day of presale?

Any idea when they if they will launch this?

Later today !
 
I’ve used IUP for the last few phones and can’t remember if you need to unlock your credit for them to run it. Anyone remember from years past?
 
Will I still get the offer even if I skipped the upgrade to the 13 last year? (I currently have the 12PM on the IUP and have made 22 of the 24 required payments.)

Maybe I'm missing something but wouldn't it be better to just pay it off and start over with the 14? Then you can trade in or sell the 12PM.

If you trade in the 12PM now, you'll only get like half of the value.

I skipped the 12 (I had it with the 11 and the 13P) and I just had to re-enroll when I ordered the 13P.

Yep—I’ve thought about that. However, I REALLY want to have the 14PM before October 5, as I’ll be away on a month-long vacation and it would be great to have the upgraded camera. I may very well just re-enroll in the IUP, finish paying off my 12PM, and then sell it.

In this case, yes, I'd just pay it off and sell that one and start a new iUP.
 
I know everyone has different cases but I just did the math. wow. $75 a month for the iPhone I'm going to buy. That's $900 a year.

I guess it's easy but wow. I paid $1500 for iPhone 13 Pro Max and the trade-in offer I have is $880 or a cost of $620 to own it for a year. Or sell on Swapa for $1050 which means $450 for one year ownership.

I guess the only perk is not having to do any trade in program and getting AppleCare included.
