Read the other unlock threads. Everyone knows this. Trust me, I've been buying unlocked iphones since the iPhone 4.

AT&T, Verizon and T-Mobile "Device Only" iPhones from the Apple store are unlocked.

My 5S was the Verizon version and I used it on T-Mobile.

Awesome, I'll just try to get my device from Apple store.

I learned something neat from an apple woman on the phone. I called to check if they had my phone (they didn't but she informed me of this tidbit)-- Every night after 12 am they repopulate some store's inventory by a handful or so, not much but some in certain models. So you can place an in store pick up any day right after 12 am to get later that day. I just didn't want to have to do that. But might help others. I'd definitely double check that store availability a few times before hitting buy though if I were you.

I agree. Totally check the Apple online store inventory in your area and try different model sets to show what is available. Downside if you are using JUMP then it will not work if a phone is available for purchase. I had to buy the phone full price but have 14 days to return if need be.
 
Legere's office called me. Told me one of them has shipped and will he here on Monday (6+ 64GB SG) and gold one next week. He said its all down to Apple because Apple just sends them phones daily (including weekends) and so it's just a matter of what phones they get and fulfilling peoples orders.

Who's the person helping you? They sound like they're at least actively checking for you. Mine just gives me a canned response, and repeats what I already know from the website. :rolleyes:

Hope you get yours soon! Ask them about my 6+ 16GB Silver next time they call. ;);)

Did you email or tweet him? I emailed him, but nothing yet from him/them.

I apologize, I did not ask him. I was showing relatives around UC Berkeley when he called hah so it caught me off guard. I emailed Legere and two days later I got this call. In fact I'm typing this from my phone right now (traffic). I'll see if I can give a run down of my journey/status one I'm home.

Finally got a text with a tracking number from Tmobile. However, the tracking number doesnt work lmao. Man Tmobile is trolling us hard.

PS: Ordered on the 12th at a Tmobile store 3pm Central time no JUMP here just with installment plan. Got a pending charge yesterday on my Amex.
 
Hmm.... My wife got her phone yesterday and now she received a text from T-Mobile saying a package has been shipped and it's an entirely new tracking number... Yet UPS doesn't have anything on their site yet for that tracking number. Interesting.. Guess we'll have to give it a bit.

But it is a lot better than no tracking number. At least we can now watch on UPS, where we can trust what is happening.
 
Lol just got a call from tmobile. Calling me to ask for feedback. Their like this is their first iphone preorder and asked for feedback.

Told him to just give customers more info and that will solve a lot of problems with people asking questions.

Why is the account suspended?

UPS site is slow to update. It sometimes takes a few hours for the updates to appear.

You should have directed them here.
 
super awesome!

called T-Mobile yesterday to check if order was still ok (robolady said phones were expected to arrive on 9/19 and didn't) and was told everything still looked to be on track.

just received a call from T-Mobile informing me that my iPhone order has been cancelled, and if I was interested (really?!) I could place another order which would effectively put me at the back of the line.

so much for ordering on 9/12 at 06:28 PDT.
 
Legere's office just called me saying that my phone is on partial back order so I will be receiving it between the 22nd and the 30th. I am on the 2nd batch that is going to be shipped out. I emailed Legere on Thursday and a lady finally called me from the office and explained everything to me. After no text, charge on my card, or updates, this is all I wanted so now I can relax.

Did you ever get a 9/22-9/30 text in the first place?

Just don't hold your breath. Happy you heard something, but don't count on anything until it's at your door.
 
I emailed this morning. I don't expect any results from it, but I feel better than I did before doing nothing.
 
Pretty weird my package was shipped today, UPS only ships Saturday for air packages. That's probably why we don't have tracking, UPS won't move them until Monday.
