If you have the money to buy outright I never do, the monthly payments make these phones affordable. Apple Pay is via my debit card so cannot use that. I do not use it with my credit cards.
Fair enough. I just trade in every year so it was $500 out of pocket after I get the trade in back.
 
So tried to pre order only to be told Apple Store retail pick up only (doing iPhone Upgrade program) on the app originally. Then tried web site, and went to an "oops" page. Anyone have similar issues on upgrade program?
 
Came back from the order hold and it’s still 9/27-10/1. Local store still has 9/20 pickup available. Time to just order another one.

dammit
 
It's no different, its a 0% loan. Paying up front with 0% interest doesnt make much financial sense when you can leverage that money elsewhere. Anyone who invests would tell you the same.

For me, I get 5% cash back for utilities on my business credit card with my ATT bill is; Apple is not. So since the phone payment is part of my bill I get 5% off each payment which adds up. About $27-28 off the phone cost of $550 if upgrading yearly (half the $1099). So it's a good chunk of change doing it that way for me versus paying up front.
I used my Apple Card. $600 trade in and pay $500 which I had already set aside
 
Orders placed iPhone 11 Pro 256 Midnight Green and iPhone 11 Pro Max 256 Midnight Green and both will arrive on 9.20 :p:D:cool::rolleyes:

I just checked and both phones that I got are already sold out! Glad I got in right away and it was easy peasy to place my order on the apple app!

Interestingly the ATT website opened up about 10 minutes before Apple did for preorders o_O

Update: Received confirmation emails for both phones right away with the 9.20 delivery date! One ordered through the IUP program and one ordered on ATT Next (on Apple app) I did get charged the tax for the IUP phone but no tax charged yet for the ATT Next phone ;)

Yea! I set it for pick up at the fifth avenue location between 4-4:30pm and when I went to check my order now on the Apple app it says shipping 27th-1st.

I had the same issue. I selected in-store pickup on 9/20, now in my confirmation is showing that it will ship in early October?!?!?!
 
Anyone know if instore stock will change closer to release day for the pro max clear cases? I didn't know if I was going to stick with my max decision till the very end. But I need a case for release day.
 
#1: Ordered 05:01 on T Mobile site - Red 11 128GB for delivery 09/20 via 2 day air - got 50% off ($350 discount).

$2: Ordered 05:04 on Apple store app - Yellow 11 128GB for delivery - with no notice of delivery day.


Easy peasy !

BTW: interesting data point: T Mobile site was up before Apple's this morning.

Apple store app was still loading until about 8:06am for me. Finally loaded and order placed at 8:07am for the 11 Pro Max Midnight Green 256GB. Got my email confirmation for 9/20 delivery.

AT&T site was up and running by 7:59am. But I really wanted to order on the Apple app. Ugh

Anyone else on Next Every Year program notice that it’s $52 a month when you purchase on Apple vs $46 when purchased on AT&T. ??!!!?
 
Ordered at 7:01am (Central) without issue this morning. 11 Pro Max Midnight Green 512GB 9/20 delivery

Does the 11 Pro have similar dimensions to the XS?

I use a leather sleeve that I can just slide my phone in and out of rather than a case, and am hoping I can keep using the same one I have.
 
wouldn't let me order until 8:04 AM EST. By then, midnight green 256gb was already at Oct 1! Oh well. Got a SB Ti watch coming 9/20 :)
