Actually, it was in my gmail SPAM folder...
The order I cancelled for delivery sent an email and that made it to my inbox, hmmm, Google is trying to not let me get off android!
I have a stupid question about my in store pickup:
1. I have my Verizon account. I'm the primary person.
2. My wife is transferring from TMobile to my Verizon account.
3. I selected in-store pickup and did the "add a line to my account" and put her account information in to transfer to my account.
I'm assuming she needs to be there to activate and pick up the phone? She works late and we would get there right before the store closes, so I was hoping to go early to pick it up. What information does Apple need when doing an in-store pickup?

I *think* it's the account # of the other carrier, as well as any password/PIN for the account to port it out.
Maybe she can make you a user on her TMo account, so if you get there and need something you can call them up on the spot.
Ah crap - figured so. She is still on her family's plan since we just got married this year - so she isn't the one authorized to add me. They will still hold the phone until end of business day, correct? They close at 9pm and we would get there at about 8:45.

Check her SPAM. Ended up there for a bunch of us.
IPhone 5 64GB White AT&T in Austin, Texas
Scored a 64GB White and Silver iPhone 5 on AT&T in Austin, Texas. Received confirmation email at 10:04pm, but it went to my spam folder.

If you already entered all her TMo account info when you chose to add the line and port the number you might not need anything else.
Maybe someone else with direct porting of a TMo # can chime in, if not, you can probably call the Apple store and ask them exactly what they'll need. I know the ones around here answer their phones about a 1/2 hour before open.
Black 32GB ATT seem to be plentiful.this is just ridiculous. 4th night in a row, and i finally get to place an order when i get a "Payment Authorization Failed" error from apple. all information was entered correctly and saved, and by the time i re-entered everything, reservation stock had depleted. this is just getting on my nerves now...
Trying to get some more info on my order. I was able to get an order placed for a Verizon 16GB white iPhone 5 at 10:15pm for pickup. Now, I wanted to purchase it on my line which currently has unlimited data, but the website gave no option to pay full price and said to visit a store, something I've been doing for last 2-3 days and have had no luck whatsoever.
So, I decided I would purchase the phone on another line on the account that is a non-data line and is eligible for an upgrade and when I go to pick it up, I could just cancel the contract that was renewed and instead of giving up the phone, I could just pay the difference to keep it. Is this possible? I know Verizon gives you 30 days to cancel a new contract, does this also apply to renewed contracts? I dont want any contracts renewed and dont want to upgrade to share everything either.

16 GB White Verizon, Twelve Oaks, Novi, MI
I hope this white goes better than my white iPad 2 which I bought on day 1 and ended up replacing in May with a black one. I like this a lot better than I've liked any of their white products in the past and have been a bit worried about the scratching as I'm not really much of a case guy. Can't wait to pick this up though!

After experiencing a debit card issue (my fault) last night, I scored a black 16GB from The Grove in Los Angeles. It seems like Apple Stores are now getting more iPhones than before since all the stores in my area had phones available.
To those who are still trying, don't hesitate or you will lose the phone in your cart. Make sure your credit card info is saved, log into the Apple Store beforehand, etc.
