T-Mobile.com preorder thread

Welllllp, my 128 GB iPhone 6+ didn't arrive today like the texts/emails said, but my card was finally charged around noon, so there's that at least - I was beginning to think my order would end up one of those mysterious cancelations.

Now just the waiting game for an update on UPS. </3
everything on tmo is the same status as the last couple days. backordered/processing not ready for shipment.

The status page has said Monday for the better part of the day; the e-mail with an "update" saying Saturday arrived about 2 hours ago. I checked the status page again to see if it reflected that change, and it does not.

Nada, status says backordered, no charge. got the 1-2 days text a few days ago and just got the crap text about my order being prioritized once they get inventory in. Ordered at 6:30am on the 12th over the phone

Ahhh, so you are a follower of the 'Late Night Philosophy.' I myself follow the 'Sleep Early' policy and hope to wake up with a sweet MyChoice text: "Your order has been-" But of course, that never arrives. Perhaps I wake up with something like "Messenger wants to be updated" or "Lookout has scanned all applications"

Every time:

You're the closest person I've seen that has ordered to me... this is why i don't see how we haven't gotten them yet! i haven't seen anyone talking about that phone! idk what the hold up is. BUT hopefully one of the 6 planes landing in Louisville from Anchorage will have some on there.
 
Still waiting. Is it a bad sign if I can't pull up any order information on the My T-Mobile site and I haven't received any texts since a "Backordered" text on 9/13 in the morning?

New customer, eip which I got a copy of and said confirmed signed when I ordered 9/12 7:45 am est. meanwhile apparently there was a glitch with it so they manually fixed two days ago. 128 sg 6+. Charged yesterday afternoon. Two days ago was told my order was listed as submitted and not backordered and that it was shipping Friday.

No shipping label, tmo order status page says 'being processed' and the shipping method below says 'overnight 1 business day 9/19'.

Really don't understand what's going on. No clue if it's coming on Saturday or not as there are stories here of people getting their orders early from what their tmo shipping said. Id normally think that all was well for Monday but the fact that literally almost all others in my situation at the very least can see their label, I'm just really confused. No emails from tmo about anything delivery wise either

Anyone have an idea about this?
 
The lack of information is all on Tmobile, but the main issue is pretty much Apple's fault. They love holding back inventory to make the demand seem incredible and make people who can't get it, want it soooo badly.

All they have to do is crack the whip and pay each Chinese worker 50 cents more per day and they could easily have doubled the inventory. This was done on purpose to make people crave it. And then when you do finally get it, cognitive dissonance sets in, and you love it 10 times as much because of all the bullshirt you went thru.

Classic Apple psychology 101

Now where is my freaking phone TMOBILE????

I ordered right around 6-7am on the 12th. I was on hold then placed the order after 6, got the confirmed EIP at 648am. Not a single ****ing peep besides that ******** text 9/22-9/30 after they told me all week I'd get it on release. Now nothing and everyone getting tracking ahead of me.
 
got a space grey 16gb plus and silver 16gb plus coming tomorrow next day air shipping. order placed saturday around 1 est.

Free T-Mobile Msg: Your iPhone order is important and prioritized. We will update you with any new information and ship as soon as we get inventory.

Anyone get this text?
Click to expand...

Yes, many of us did. Surely they realize that they can't tell us all we're prioritized, right? :)

Thats because like me, you called too many times and pissed someone off. They delayed our shipments as a lifetime worth of punishment.

Lesson learned .... Thanks T-Mobile
