T-Mobile.com preorder thread

My T-Mobile store only had 10 16gb gold and 10 64gb grey. I scored a grey one... :)

Additional benefit - while waiting in line for 4 hours, I chatted with a few people that were signing up for new service.... Referred them.... Score unlimited data for a year!

No more pre-ordering fiascos for me. Going to the store from now on.
 
Cancelled my pre-order for a 6+ 64GB SG and got a 6 128GB SG in-store this morning. Good luck everyone!

because managers at tmobile stores have insight into supply chains of their competitors. I doubt the carriers let that data leak out.

well he was going off of what the at&t and verizon store near by received and what they knew the others stores in the area received. Dont shoot the messenger! Im just sayin...
 
I also heard that APPLE made alot of the gold and didnt get as many orders for gold as they expected so alot of the phones that carriers will have in store will be gold. BTW THERE WAS ONLY 6 PHONES AT THE STORE I WENT TO.
 
I have two lines (me and my wife) but eligible for Jump upgrades.

I upgraded my wife's line and ordered her an iPhone 6 for $0 down, paid the tax, signed the EIP, and got the confirmation.

Then I went back to try to upgrade my line to a 6 Plus and... the down payment has jumped to $151.66 down for the 16 GB, and $251.66 for the 64 GB! Now I don't have enough money to order :(

Why would my down payment requirement jump like that, in the 5 minutes between orders? I mean, I was financing two phones before, and these are both Jump upgrades. WTF man.

Does anyone have any insight into how this works?

New customer bringing two lines over from Verizon.
Pre-ordered iPhone 6+ (64gb) in silver and space grey
Pre-order went through on 9/12 at 6:30am. (Los Angeles) Non Jump
No text messages
No emails
No updates to status which stayed at "Order received".
No updates from ROBOlady.
Funds are still pending at bank.

Received an email this morning saying that my order was shipped yesterday. UPS has it currently out for delivery. This is the first and ONLY contact and update I had from T-Mobile since placing my pre-order.

I had the same deal and I advised folks that this would happen. Take a chill pill and the orders will be processed. Not receiving any notifications is not indicative of the order not going through.

Hey man, if you're really starting to panic over a phone, you might want to talk to someone. There are lots of things you can do to take your mind off of this. Getting your phone isn't going to make you a happy person - it's just a material thing after all.

Don't work yourself up so much over this. I still don't have my phone either. I'm in the same boat as you. You have a whole life ahead of you. This particular phone is only going to be part of your life for a couple years. Do you think this is the last time you'll be disappointed? Life isn't fair sometimes, but it's ok. That's why we have friends and family.

Spoken like a true BAWSS
 
I could cry real tears right now!

Guys, I went to bed last night completely defeated because I spoke to a "supervisor" and she told me that my order had been cancelled. I thought that was it for me, I was out of the release day game.

This morning much to my surprise, I check UPS and see that my phone boarded a plane in Louisville, KY at 3:39AM and made it to Los Angeles at 5:17 this morning. It was last seen being loaded onto a truck at a UPS facility that's less that four miles away from my house, and it now on the vehicle and out for delivery today.

I am so happy, I could cry. In fact, I probably will cry when the UPS worker hands me my box, and I sign off on it.

Supply and demand.
Also, Otterbox just jacked up the price of Defender for 6Plus from $59 to $69...
 
Food for thought I stopped by the tmo store to test my luck was an hour before they open was third in line they only had 6 black 16gb (about 9 or 10) but they said I can order from the store will be delivered to my door tomorrow because stores have priority for today only. So I canceled my preorder (done on Friday at 7am mt) which I got all the txt but no shipping label or charge on my card. Just checked online the pre order still shows backordered no eta or anything. An hour after I ordered from the store alreDy says preparing for shipping
 
My 2 64gb 6 SG are out for delivery(socal)! Finally showed up under my number on ups.

Robobitch is still saying order is processed but not ready for shipment. Charges have dropped off my account. For reference I did get those Friday/overnight upgrade texts and emails. Keep hope alive my friends.
 
Can I cancel a pre-order without having to pay a restocking fee?

The store rep today gave me free next day shipping but I don't think it's gonna ship any time soon... and was wondering what would happen if I just cancel the pre-order altogether
 
WTF, whatever happen to we'll, atleast, let u know 1 to 2 days... nada... no-good sons of robobitches! Grrr....
