Was told u have to come in launch day. They can enroll u if your with TM only if they have that phone in stock. Not in stock they can't do anything for u. They said it's due to TM and their account inventory system. Shame

You got a bit more info then I did when I went in. Apple and T-Mobile need to figure this whole thing out.
 
I still can't get tmobile on the phone with 611 or the 877 number and the upgrading system online doesn't work still. I am just going into the store next friday, screw this.
 
My question is why the Upgrade Program even needs to be tied to carriers if the phone is unlocked?! Why are we still stuck in an age where SIM-free is not an option from day one when the full-price carrier phones through Apple are unlocked.. Baffling.
 
Alright.

I was told no upgrade program period, but your answer sounds more reasonable.

It's unfortunate we can't pre-order. It really is.

Yes. I really doubt that Phil Schiller would talk about all 4 carriers, and then have them drop T-Mobile later on. Moreover, the app and website says T-Mobile is available but for "in store only."
