iPhone 6 & 6 Plus Sprint Pre-Order Thread!

SlimySlim said:
Calling around to sprint stores is a bit like chasing a greased pig that can't be caught. Each store has different answers and employees are apparently privy to different information. Who knows when stock will be in and shipments will be sent out? You may as well ask the greased pig. He could give you as good a guess as a sprint store employee.

I'm not saying ask them for shipment info, I'm saying ask if they currently have any in store. Quite a few do have them in store, I found two within 5 miles of my home, and it seems like Sprint is the only carrier that does.

I am getting very discouraged and almost to the point of cancelling and just staying with ATT. I ordered a hour and a half after the pre orders started and still have nothing. This being my first interaction with Sprint is not the best. I am not sure if it is the model I picked which is 6+ 64GB they are having trouble filling or what. Just sick of the same story every time I call and now I see a couple phones with the same specs as mine on here ordered after me being delivered.

I understand how you feel. I have been with sprint for 2 years and will admit the customer service is lack luster. That being said I've rarely had to deal with them as my previous iphone didn't have any issues. My bill is dirt cheap as compared to when I was with Verizon. If you can stand the wait a little longer for a cheap phone plan it will be worth it.

It must depend on your location. There's nothing here in Utah. I didn't mean anything against you in that post. I was just venting a little frustration is all :). Sorry if it seemed like there was malintent.
 
Well I got my iPhone. Showed up at the store and was like well UPS told me my phone was here since you guys didn't. Then she pretended like it really wasn't there which wasn't going to happen since I printed out the delivery confirmation and had it with me. After 15 minutes of her acting like she was searching for it the phone appeared. Never going back to that store again.

Same thing happened to me! They acted like they didn't know at first. And my service on my 5 even stopped working completely because my new phone was already activated? I was going anyway, but still. Thanks for calling me, sprint #

Ditto, they tried to pretend they didn't have it. Then when they found it, they had "problems" matching barcode to the order. I told her I wasn't leaving till I got my phone. Also, they never called. I saw my phone was delivered at 12pm so I purposefully didn't call and waited for them - no call came....Sprint dropped the ball on this roll out!
 
I ordered mine on 9/19 at 9:30AM after my wife stood in line for 3 hours and found out there was no 6 plus shipped to the store at all. She got an iPhone 6 in gold 64 GB so she's happy. I'm waiting very patiently but every time I'm doing something on my iPhone 5S I get angry because I see hers and mine seem so small now. Oh well the wait goes on for at least another month. :(

Good for you that is exciting! It looks like the 64gb 6+ are the ones in shortest supply. Seems that the others are rolling out more consistently.
 
I just checked my order and son of a gun I've got my tracking number! My 6+ sg 64 gb ordered online 7:50 am MDT on 9/13 will be here in 2-5 days! Luckily it is being shipped to my house and I can activate it online so I won't have to deal with the sprint store for pickup! I will keep you guys updated.
 
Can not believe it....Just checked my order and I have a shipping number. 6+ 64GB in silver. Asked for a credit for my activation today in a chat with sprint and they said no problem. No shipping info yet but label has been printed it says. It does say this for status:

Status: Your order has been submitted and requires manual processing. If there is an issue processing the order we will contact you.

Is that normal?
 
Registered just to post to this thread after following the entire thing.. ;)

iPhone 6 Plus, 64GB, Space Gray.. ordered 9/13 (Saturday), about 4AM..

Order number 75080XXXX

Just got UPS My Choice notification with tracking number, also shows on order status page. Shipping out today, delivery Monday.

Yay!!!

edit: for anyone trying to check and see if they have a tracking number yet using the "track by reference", if it happens to not be listed on the Sprint website and you do not have My Choice turned on with UPS (I have not yet gotten shipping email from Sprint) my account number was used for the reference number as an fyi

I would contact sprint an make sure the order is entered into the system correctly. If it is I would then contact ups to figure out what's going on. I was reading in another thread that someone else had that same message. Turned out the order was incorrectly entered so they have to wait to reorder another phone.
 
Delivery today!!!

My gold iPhone 6 Plus (128gb) is on the delivery truck making it's rounds for today.

Ordered 30 SEP (evening...online)
Shipped 01 OCT
Delivery 03 OCT

Not too shabby, Sprint. You've lived up to your namesake (in my case, at least).

Good luck to you all. Seems like some SG 6+ models are beginning to move out more.

I finally Recieved My Iphone 6 plus gold 64gb today!!! I have been following this thread ever since the first post! I hope everyone recieve theirs soon!:):)

I ordered on 9/12 around 8clock
 
Good as Gold

UPS delivered my 128gb gold iPhone 6+ about 5 hours ago. First impressions.....STELLAR. YOU DO NOT WANT TO DROP SOMETHING THIS WELL-MADE AND PREMIUM-FEELING.

Did a number port with porting dept. (Moved old number from TMobile). No issues. Software updates (IOS 8.0.2, I believe), and fine tuning/downloading favorite apps and contacts. I'm all set.

Last tasks....Buy one more solid case for this thing, and a tempered glass screen protector. It's gorgeous. Dropping it, will make you want to cry or attempt a leaping catch. I have a Spigen Tough Armor protector on it now, for the daily grind of the work-week. It securely fits the device. Snug and not overly-bulky. I'm thinking of going with the Verus aluminum/iron shield case for after-work activities.

Good luck to everyone still waiting. Believe me, it's well worth it.

(Looks like SG is shaping up to be the ones making a move shipping out in the coming days)

Hello, been following for a few weeks and decided to post.
I ordered a 6+ gold in 64gb on 9/12 around 7pm in store. I was told 2-3 weeks and well it's around that time frame and no phone. The crappy part is that I tried the idevice site and Best Buy right next door to the sprint I ordered from had one!! Went to go cancel my order and they wouldn't give me my money! The same phone I ordered was available NEXT DOOR like come on! Lol welp they told me give it another week (which I did) and nothing! This is the first time I preorder and the last. Sigh

They sure can cancel the pre-order and refund your money. Ask to speak to a lead retail specialist or a manger. Supposedly there was a corporate memo that went out instructing the rep on how to cancel. I went in last Sunday to cancel and got the refund on my card on Tuesday.

6+ Space Gray 64gb ordered online 9/18 early morning, order #oy-shso-751450358
 
I finally broke down and gave up on the SG 64gb and picked up the Gold 64gb from Best Buy. I cancelled my order for the third time and my upgrade eligibility was restored instantly. I love the Gold and I am enjoying the phone so far.
 
Well the wait is finally over. My iPhone 6 Plus 64gb SG has FINALLY shipped. Ordered on the 13th at 6pm, in store. Shipped via UPS Next Day Air. Should have my baby either tomorrow or Tuesday :D
 
Update me, Just got my tracking number for my 64gb sg plus. Ordered 9-13 3:30pm online. Be here Wed. Hang in there people, it will come!

Had mine ordered in store for pickup in store as well. Guess the plus side of having it shipped to the store is that its arriving via next day air, will have it tomorrow :):D
