Boy he really showed Apple didn’t he. Bet Tim Cook lying awake in bed because you didn’t get date you wanted and cancelled order that in all probability would have it’s date improved.

Stayed up all night, called in sick to work today, and STILL didn't get a November 3rd delivery date

Funny thing is, I originally had the Nov. 10 - 17 delivery date too but it was upgraded to Nov. 3 delivery later in the day. Now preparing to ship.

Not sure what kind of entitlement the rest of us have exhibited in our lives...
Given the title of your thread and opening post, it might behoove you to look in the mirror and consider doing some personal maturity growth work.
Yes, I meant with the app or on Apple.com. I did a JOD upgrade over the phone and got launch day delivery and also ordered with the app. As you probably know now, those of us who ordered early with the app and got 11/10-11/17 delivery dates have been bumped up to launch day.
I'm going to ignore the calling out of "troll" from some users here - I've been around for years, my post record speaks for itself. (Yes, I made a joke in the pre-order thread... sue me)
I'm even more livid now to hear that they moved up orders, especially for T-Mobile customers. I was furious because i didn't get a launch day date. That's why I canceled my order. Now it sounds like if i had kept my order, I'd have it on launch. That's a TERRIBLE way to treat loyal customers. Tell me upfront what day I'm getting my phone. Don't surprise me. And now I'm punished as a result and have to wait till around Christmas to get my phone.
I will be waiting in line at the local apple store Friday morning, but I'm going to ask Apple to provide some sort of compensation - Either a discount on the device, or maybe free accessories. If they aren't happy to comply, I'll be happy to take my business elsewhere.

They did tell you up front. Did you not click the buy button when it said it would deliver November 10-17?
Then be happy.
I can tell you right now if you go in with that attitude you’re not getting jack.
You may get something if you turn on the waterworks, give your best sad puppy face and essentially “beg” for some sort of free accessory. No way on the discount on iPhone ten.
Who do you think you are anyways? I’m really curious. Obviously not a “troll”. But are you some sort of celebrity? Hedge fund baby? Are you a distant cousin of Angela’s?
Lol good luck buddy.
Great, that means someone else can get their iPhone X quicker.
You’ve been here for years so you know how all this works, yet you think Apple is going to play along with that scheme? As has been mentioned 50+ times here already, YOU canceled your preorder because you weren’t happy with your result. That is on you, not Apple. Apple has been known to compensate customers when Apple has wronged them. They will not compensate you for a temper tantrum. Won’t happen.
The entitlement is real.

Well based on your socioeconomic status among other things I won't state here because it would start a war of words, there are many things the people do that is seen as privilege

And because of your absolute sense of entitlement, I hope they compensate other patrons by not giving you a phone and give it to someone more deserving.
Not to add salt to the wound, but I had the original Nov 10-17 ship date, my card was charged today and my delivery estimate revised to November 3rd. Also for a T-Mo phone bought through the Apple Store.
All of you guys calling him a petulant child or entitled brat should check your inboxes. Weaselboi and the mods care more about someone’s feelings getting hurt over being called a troll then all of us potentially losing IQ points for being exposed to OP.
At this point, just delete my account. It’s not even fun anymore. “I was promised launch day delivery” Jesus f’n H. Yup, not a troll at all.

And this shows a failure of management on the part of Apple. If the estimate got updated, that means they initially messed up. None of this would have happened if they had told me I'd get it on the 3rd. Pathetic
It shows your failure to understand reality. There’s is definitely something pathetic here and that’s your rediculous entitlement.
dude. how old are you? why’d you cancel your order and try again? what was the logic in play there?
Funny how it’s impossible to distinguish the behavior of a troll from the behavior of a stupendously stupid individual.
Do you even know how many loyal customers there are? Millions. Everybody gets the same treatment. Loyal customers or not. Deal with it. And no they’re not going to compensate you at the door. Perhaps boot you out with that attitude.
and you would be getting yours on the 3rd if you hadn’t canceled your order. Your rage and entitlement cost you a launch day phone. Oh the irony is too thick.
Man its times like this I wish I ordered the T-Mobile instead of the AT&T one, because they're the same phone. Here I am stuck with 17-24 delivery.
BTW, are you on flyertalk? Your username looks very familiar!
