Welp I ordered the wrong phone at first.. where's my coffee

Was able to get the correct one in at 8:11 ET- Pro Max Midnight Green 64GB and still showing launch day delivery. Must have gotten back in just in time.
Nice. Same configuration I ordered. What did you order accidentally? Im curious lol
 
Soo. I got it, but it switched from pick up in store to delivery Sept 27th.

Pro Max
Midnight Green
256 GB
ATT Next

on the Apple Store app on my iPad.

did this happen to anyone else I'm cringing but ecstatic right now.
It switched from store pickup to delivery on it’s own?
 
Received my confirmation emails at 8:06 and 8:08. Oddly the 8:06 email was for my wife’s which I ordered after mine! I ordered a Pro Max 11 in Green
 
So I did T-Mobile and did the option to

"Activate with your Carrier Later
Complete your purchase faster by skipping carrier activation now."

I'm not under any contract or payment plan with T-Mobile. I did one time payment. I just have a line under them. Does the rule of having the primary account holder on my wireless plan pick up the phone still apply or is it just considered an unlocked iPhone?
 
That is why I'm holding out hope that mine will move up since the same thing happened to me (first time ever)....so I'm really hoping it moves up....but if it doesn't before I leave for Cairo I will probably cancel....we will be gone from the 26th until the 4th of October... :(

I think it will. BUT if it doesn't I'd wait until your tracking number is issued and change the delivery to hold for pickup and you can get it when you return on the 4th. If you cancel, by the time you can reorder you'll be waiting for a while for delivery.

Ordered in less than 30 seconds after going live and managed to get dates between Sept. 27 and Oct. 1. How Sway??

64 Midnight Green Pro Max TMO, btw.
 
My pickup order status is still “Order Placed” When will it start to change to “Processing”?
 
Dates for the green Pro Max started slipping to the 27th in the first 10 mins. Glad I went ahead with the space gray instead

Based on store pickup availability (DC metro), iPhone 11 Pro Max in Midnight Green sold out the fastest. But it took a full 12 minutes, slower than last year’s XS Max Gold which sold out around 1-2 minutes.

Just ordered one at 08:36 and got 9/20 pickup. Definitely depends on location - Boston area. Probably depends on size. All I need is 64gb.

They won’t have your TMobile info If you didn’t enter it. However I think the pickup person has to be listed on the order.
 
Idk what’s going on this year.

Delivery dates for a lot are pushed back but I’m still seeing quite a few available for my local store delivery.

I can still order VZW Space Grey 256 GB Pro Max for 9/20 pick up
 
Anyone else's order show "on hold" when viewing the Order Details?

iPhone Upgrade Program Order

Your order is on hold
Once your application is approved, we'll email you an updated delivery date.

Me, and I'm so frustrated. I changed delivery address, maybe that's why?
 
Anyone’s order still on hold? I ordered a 64 Gold Pro and it still hasn’t updated to processing. It said when I ordered that I got launch day delivery but now I’m getting nervous
Yes I am on hold. When I completed order the app said it needed my payment info? I thought that was I in the preapproval I did two days ago? anyway it was already 8 minutes past when I got in. I did the payment stuff and then it said done and shipping on September 27-October 1. Now been on hold for 20 minutes. I suppose this is gonna go later probably has to to get reapproval from my credit card or something what a screw up not a happy camper. I am starting to think Apple can never get this right. I missed 2 years ago since it took 10 minutes for me to get on my location in central Illinois. Most years have been ok on the iUP but now this is two bad experiences. Maybe its time to not do this next year I am thinking...
 
Here we go again!

11 Pro Max 512 SG
AT&T
Ordered via App on 9/13 @ 8:05 EST
Shipping 9/27 - 10/1

Upgrading from XS Max 512 GD

11Pro Max midnight green 256. Breezed through at 8:02 less than a minute after Apple store went live thanks to the IUP and pre-approval process. Now comes the tracking fun. I look forward to it every year.

This is why buying outright and Apple Pay are a wonderful thing

I was surprised that I needed payment info too. I didn't see Apply Pay but luckily, I thought to get out my cards (2 just in case) so it didn't slow me down much. The other 3 used the saved card.
