Part II - UDP For Life

[rockstar72]

How many times have you ordered online and got all the way to the cart screen only to end at the "sorry" screen or receive the unavailable for pick-up message? This matched the number of "pending applications" that CORe showed on my account. They have since been deleted and I'm back in business.

So after receiving this error multiple times, I finally get an order through for in store pickup. First they tell my "Account Manager" that the cannot pick up the order, only I am authorized for pick up. WTH. So my "Account Manager" tries again with another Apple employee that did let then do the pick up. No clue what happened here as I wasn't there.

Then when they scanned the phone or some point soon thereafter, the said there was an eligibility issue and the order could not be completed. Anyone know what happened here.

So we go through with a new order with me on the phone with the Apple rep. A bit of a stumble on the data plan as she told me Verizon doesn't offer unlimited data so I asked to to scroll through the choices. She was suprised to find it. Order completed, but my Account Manager had to pay with another credit card so I lost my extended warranty (from my credit card).

So what was wrong with my original order, but I could purchase in store? Anyone.

Although some "Account Managers" have been successful, the rule has always been that only "Account Owners" may pick up "new lines of service".

How many have you purchased? Did you exceed 10 iP6?

 

[jdougal]

So Jules, just to confirm you received that issue before and went in without a hitch? I could care less about a deposit, happy to pay it. Just want to know if it's worth risking placing an order.

Also got the Turbo, got it activated today. Probably putting it back on Swappa tomorrow. Nice phone just too small for me personally. Camera isn't that great. Moto features are pretty stellar.

Nope, first purchase via Apple. I had 5 lines on my 700 shared plan, but ported 2 lines to Pageplus, so now have 3 lines before this purchase. One of the lines was upgraded to an IP6 via Verizon several weeks ago before I was aware of this deal.

 

[maestroX2]

Weird, the store told me they couldnt add a line, activate the phone at all whole day. Tried to add a line, screen showed he had to call CORe.. he did call and they couldnt help. They told me to come back later to "try" again. They put 2 6+ 64gb space gray on hold for me.. *sigh*

I get Analyst Reviews and they have to call CORe every time except once. But no deposit.

too small, lol! Isn't the screen 5.2"?

yikes.. 5.2 is too small and camera is not that great ?.. n6 uses same camera right ?


My guy told me that one of you paid him $25 to take the line ? He said if I pay him $50, he will take from me instead. So now we are bidding against ourselves ?

Has it really come to this for you all??

Any idea if that's who they called today that said I was on 48 hour review? They said they got error code 63. Apple never said who they were calling specifically, just "Verizon". Like I said I tried to get some information out of the Verizon rep but she wasn't very informative at all.


Lol yea it is, but I'm coming from the Note 3 and LG G3 so it seems small. I have issues typing on the smaller screens. Nice device though overall, I like the feel of the kevlar on the back. I'm looking up ROMs for my G3 now.

I can't keep enough of the $45/mo UDP MHS plans in stock to satisfy demand. I am giving them out for free.

Idk. Never got a 48 hour review b/f. How many have you done?

 

[markyr17]

jdougal, how many are you doing, and are you going into the apple store just about every day? We rotate apple stores when my group goes in, try to only go to the same apple store once a week

I did probably 10 last week, haven't done anything since Friday. The store I visit is the only one in the area unfortunately that doesn't take half a day to get to. Last week I went almost everyday.

Do they recognize you and greet you by name?

Lol WOW. Bidding wars to see who gets to pay up to get rid of UDP lines.

 

[jdougal]

Do they recognize you and greet you by name?

Lol no, it's a pretty large store and it's always busy. I recognize most of the reps now. I'm sure some of them notice me but most probably don't just due to the number of people in there everyday.

 

[hommer1979]

Just went to the apple store, wanted to add a line the usual routine. Then the guy ask me for 2 forms of id. He says it's a Verizon thing when you add a line. Ended up going home empty handed.

I believe it's the same camera but not 100% sure. Motorola has always been known for not so great cameras. It's not that it's bad, just the LG with the laser focus is better IMO.

Sorry to ask something that might have been asked within the past few pages, but these threads are tough to keep up with and I'm not looking to cash in from this; I'm just trying to help my sister keep her UDP.

My sister has one UDP line with Verizon and she wants to keep her number. Per this thread or the one at SlickDeals, I had her order a new SIM for an iPhone 6 from VZW, which she received a week ago. We then used her VZW upgrade to do a ship-to-home from Best Buy for the iPhone 6 she wants, which she received yesterday.

She hasn't opened or activated the new iPhone yet. As I understand things, all we need to do now is pop out the SIM that shipped with the phone and replace it with the new SIM she received from VZW and she should be all set. Am I right about this? Anything else we need to do? Thanks for all feedback.

I have done hardly any and they recognize me, crap. I think I am going to go mostly on weekends when the store is packed.

There's a 40-60 min wait on weekends just to see a rep. No thank you!

She is doing the UDVZWIP4 Method - the new SIM needs to be activated - read the wiki on SDs thread.

Well then I would need to dye my hair red or something b/c I feel so strange that they recognize me.

The closest Apple Store for me is like Walmart on Christmas Eve if you go on the weekend.

It's damn near empty if you go on a weekday morning.

Just give then your DL n CC.

Thanks for the fast reply. Just so I'm totally clear, when it says:

7) Type in the IMEI of the device and SIM card number of the SIM card you ordered in Step 1;

... does it mean the IMEI of the current device (iPhone 4s) or the IMEI of the new iPhone 6?

Also, is the SIM number printed on the SIM card? I thought someone has said that the SIM number isn't always printed on the SIM cards shipped by VZW, although I might be confusing my AT&T iPad upgrade with this VZW iPhone upgrade. Again, thanks very much.
