This is a forum for everyone who was unable to get an iPhone last night because their shipping address must match the billing address! Share your horror stories.

I am a college student in New York, originally from California. All of my billing addresses are still at my parents houses, and my mom is coming out to visit me on Monday, so she will not be home to receive the new phone even if I did want to have it shipped to CA. I'm so mad, I wish I had remembered that the addresses have to match! Looks like I won't be getting an iPhone 5 for a few weeks.

I feel like this would be a common problem among college students, anyone else?
