I am thinking about signing up for the iPhone Upgrade Program on apple.com. Does anyone know, based on experiences of previous years, when will iPhone 13 series be available through this program? Is it on the day 1 or several weeks later? Thank you for the help!
 
It will be available on day one, and you'll likely have time between the Event and pre-order day to get everything set up and pre-approved. They typically open that option up not long after the Event finishes.

With the upgrade program, is it something we can do online or do we have to enter the store on launch day?
Sorry, im new to the program. I’m still torn whether to buy outright or not and I’m weighing it all up!

Done online and have phone shipped to you; you don't have to go in store.

What if you decide to keep the phone after a year instead of trading it in? Pay off the remaining balance?
 
Not seeing the ability to enroll yet.

I no longer want to buy the phone outright. I hope the get the pre-enrollment working before Friday…

How does the upgrade program work if you currently outright own an iPhone 12 Pro Max? I could trade it in to Apple for $790 and get a 13 Pro Max 128gb for $309 (without AppleCare plus).

If I join the upgrade program, do they still take the $790 credit off the price and the remaining is spread out over 24 months?
 
I’m getting my error message that says “something is wrong with your eligibility”. Anyone else seeing this?
