So if I drop by Best Buy or one of the idevicechecker vendors they can take care of cancelling the online order or do I have to do that first?

That is the tricky part. Best Buy will NOT do it for you. So you would have to IMO go to best buy and see sight on that they have what you want. Then after seeing with your own eyes the phone tell them wait a few minutes and hold it. Then call sprint and tell them cancel my order and restore my upgrade now. Tell sprint look i waited you failed to send me a phone i pre ordered and i am standing in a best buy and they have them. I would not be nasty but i would be firm. Tell them you want the phone and DO IT NOW. Once they do then buy the phone you want :)
 
My 16gb SG 6+ may have gotten a label this morning. I don't want to jump the gun, but my order number and phone number have started resolving to an unidentified package in UPS Mail Innovations. This was not the case last night.

I'll keep you all posted. :cool:

Edit: aaand it's gone.

It seems to have dissapeared from mail innovations. Oh well.

Edit 2: And they're back?
It's strange. They dissapear from mail innovations and come back a couple minutes later.

Now my sprint page says "new service begins in 14 days!" Hmmm.

Make sure when you cancel they don't screw up your upgrade eligibility date. Tell them you want it reset to September 1 at the earliest because they may blow smoke up your you-know-where and tell you you will be able to upgrade but actually set your eligibility for sometime stupid like they did for me.

Sprint has always said when new usage is on the my account page - that's the end of your billing cycle. Mine's in 20 days.

Where did you go to check that?
 
Hi Chorx, I just tried that (mail innovations) and I got the same thing you did. Then I tried again and it was gone. However....... I just tried again and it was there again. I have tried this over the past week and had gotten nothing, so I am feeling slightly hopeful :) You should check it again.

I edited my post, I had the same thing happen. We'll know by the end of the day, but I'm hopeful to say the least.

Personally, I've gotten Order number (after the letters), and Phone number to work.

Account number has just started working as a reference as well! :D

weird i entered my account number and it just shows the phone i already received so i tried my tracking number nothing my phone number nothing so just for laughs i tried the preorder for the phone that i already received and nothing nor did the phone number for that phone work either
 
Nothing new on my end.
As for the UPS tricks, I'm getting false positives. The package showing up could be my earlier Sprint order. So those with only one order, good luck!

Mail innovations is not a hope, it's unreliable. It shows no proof of shipments.

Agreed. All iPhones are being shipped as "Packages" not Mail Innovations, which are very small packages shipped to and then delivered by the United States Postal Service. UPS is directly delivering all iPhones.
 
ok i just emailed sprintcares@sprint.com and requested that someone give a real update on the progress of our phones and not something from a script. I have found that emailing them tends to work better than calling a rep that is clueless to begin with so let's see where that gets us maybe if enough of us email them they'll get their head out of their ass and move with some sense of urgency in getting our devices out
 
Damnnn!!! I cant stand this **** anymore everyone has iphone 6+ for sale EXCEPT sprint.... First time i pre order from them and ****ing last... Idk why i dint go sit in front of that store... Why cant this be like when you pre order a game .. On launch date that **** is already there!
 
Email.

This is also my first ever pre ordering a phone and this would be my first ever iPhone and I will never pre order again. I placed an order for the iPhone 6 plus, 64 gb in gold. I called all the stores in my area and no one got any of the plus in for Sprint.. They tell me at least 3 weeks. Best buy said 2 months! I might as well just get the Samsung galaxy note 4. I already have the note 3.
