lmao. like l honestly am curious how it works? it BAFFLES me that a big company like tmobile is this messed up... like how do you not have ANY info on what you are getting? like I understand tmobile gets 1-3 pallets of iphones, and may not be able to request what phones are on there. but when they are on that plane from china, tmobile HAS to know how many pallets they are getting and what devices are in the pallet.

That's what I'm saying

I had seen it'll come locked! And after 4 months you can get it unlocked! But don't quote me on that. I just think that's what I read. If you buy it directly from apple tho I believe it comes unlocked

where did you read it may I ask?
the reason I want to buy on t-mobile because I want to get $250 trade-in for my od iphone lol
I can wait 4 months to get it unlocked because I wil use T-mobile sim anyway but I want to know will they unlock it after 4 months :D and is it a world phone (gms/3g/4g lte) capable?

I asked the rep I spoke with why orders are filling out of order and she said well if you ordered in store you might get it faster than if you order online. I said, I ordered in store. She said, well sometimes online orders get filled faster depending on the phone. Lol.

I read it on here! U can call CS and ask... I'm pretty sure it's 4 months
 
I decided to CS because i had the 16g SG plus and got the pre-order to backorder as well and she told me that as long as you pre-ordered on the 12th u are priority and should get it between 22-30, she said it says backordered because they are all out of some iPhones. Not sure what to believe, but i still have a little hope.
 
So, this UPS / T-Mobile fiasco is starting to get to me aswell. 9/20 5:15 am Order Processed: Ready for UPS.

Received confirmation delivery on 9/22 by 11:45am

Requested Hold for Pickup.

Occording to UPS tmobile never provided them with my package. SERIOUSLY!?

T-Mobile get urfugnchittogetherBS!

UPS = idiots.

Scheduled a pickup at my local UPS hub last night. Received confirmation that it was available for pickup this morning. Just checked status for the hell of it and now it's out for delivery. My UPS guy never gets here until 6 or 7 at night. SMH.

I guess this whole iPhone 6 preorder thing is just gonna be botched all the way up until I have it in my hands. Swear to god if I get a defective unit I'm gonna freak lol.

Same ^
 
I'm venturing to guess, based on my conversation this morning, that those of us who preordered early but have no charge and no tracking info will be hanging out on this thread until Friday-Monday. If phones ship on Thursday like they're supposed to.

Are those of us in the 64gb 6+ jump camp who received the "shipping 9/22-9/30" text STILL in the dark? I've got no communication since then, no charges, no shipping, etc.

I am in the same boat. Nothing new has changed for me. About to try and contact someone to see if they recieved stock or something.

Have the account holder call and add you as secondary. All you need is his last 4.

Going to attempt that - he is working doing demos at a warehouse store... he can't easily get to the phone.

I did get the info that Business Direct can add it via the phone, between the hours of 8a-11p EST, and then Business care said they will activate it and they are there 24 h.

Last night the guy on the phone was willing to call him to get his authorization to let me talk/do stuff. Today the guy wasn't willing.

Going to try again because I have more time to wait around on the phone than he does right now - I don't work until 5pm.

ANYWAY. Happy to hear that we don't have to go to a corporate store (which is 45 minutes away from me... I don't understand why we don't have one up here either, we have everything else!)

For some reason that answer actually gives me some sort of hope! Lol maybe I'm delusional
 
A buddy of mine had an old t-mobile phone laying around that I could pop my sim card into. So now I have access to my myT-mobile account. So I've got that going for me, which is nice. Order says "Processing". Sonofabitch.
 
on 9/12 i woke up at midnight trying to preorder/upgrade through t mobiles website nothing worked i even tried all day..i gave up so i decided to go to my local tmobile store on launch day after work around 5pm central time walked in and out within 10 min and got my self a iphone 6 gold 64gb :cool: :apple:

I have the same thing as you.
Robolady tmobile.com text AND email said delivery today but mine says ready for ups ._,

I'm in the same club. Feeling like an idiot sitting here waiting for a package that looks like it hasn't left Louisville yet.

I know others rec'd theirs before UPS updated.
UPS first showed label created on 9/21, label created 9/20.
Tmo sent an email at 6:15 this AM that my CC was charged (and we all know how up to date they are.)

Stupidly still hoping it's on the truck. Even more dumb, I didn't even want to get in the shower this AM, in case I missed it.

I'm lucky I work from home, but I still have deadlines, and they're not happening. Maybe I should just tell my customers, I'm with T-Mobile, you'll get it when you get it.

Yeah... pretty weird. Maybe it went out sometime over the weekend and the UPS site just never got around to updating the status?

UPS is usually on point though, so if they say by end of day, then I am assuming we'll have it today.

Lol yeah mine says Label created on 9/20 and shipped/billed on 9/20. It says UPS Next Day Air Saver and is coming from Louisville, KY.

Scheduled Delivery:
Monday, 09/22/2014, By End of Day


Other than that, there is no information as to where the hell it is. No updates as to what the movement is. Just blank lol
 
I was so sure I was going to receive my phone Friday that when it didn't get come, I watched mt recordings from the cameras I have setup around my house to see if they dropped it off and someone came and took it. T-Mobile has me paranoid right now
