At this point, I'm just refreshing Apple's site to see when I can order a Plus for in store pickup. I got a 6 this weekend, but the Plus is what I really want.



Regardless, I'll try to give T-Mobile the benefit of the doubt, but this is leaving a bad taste in my mouth with them as a carrier.


I'm doing that too but there hasn't been anything in stock :(
 
Lmfao!! That's hilarious. If he woulda told me that I woulda laughed In his face lol

Via ups Tracking I see, the phone made it from Alaska to Louisville around 1am.

but I am a little worried it didn't update its status since then...now I have to hope tracking is busted and it somehow made it on a truck for delivery in Tennessee.

Well, it still estimates it will be delivered today.

That's good to hear. I still haven't gotten anything. T-Mobile is testing everyone's patience. They're probably sitting back reading everyone blowing up about not receiving them.
 
Fun story:
The router I ordered last week had a shipping label created on Thursday (for delivery yesterday, even though it didn't come) and another label created yesterday for an overnight delivery date of today (we'll see...).

I just checked My T-Mobile and late last night, my order status for the router was changed to backordered. T-Mobile is apparently unable to even get the router shipped properly.
 
Morning everyone. I woke up this morning with two text messages from #69877 stating " T-mobile LDC upgrade to received yet. Updated delivery status provided when UPS receives package." I know this is for the router, for the text origin number is different. It seems any contact concerning my iPhone comes from #456 origin.

I keep getting these emails and text concerning the router, every evening around 6pm-7pm stating a " tomorrow delivery date," then the next morning around 4am-6am stating above quote. Cray Cray....

I really hope we have some " iPhone tracking number" action today!!!

Since yesterday morning's email from Joel Chavez, who stated is working right along with J. Legere, I have yet to hear anything back. Mr Chavez's email stated that someone would be reaching out to me shortly and help follow my order through. I have yet to hear back from anyone else, although I know that will not magically materialize my iPhone and/or tracking number.

Lets hope for a productive day of work, happy emails and tracking numbers for everyone!!! YAY!!!!
 
Anybody else trying to get a T-Mobile (full-price) iPhone 6 Plus from the Apple Store? I keep refreshing availability for their Personal Pickup option, but no luck yet.

See what you think about this plan:

  • Buy iPhone 6 Plus from Apple Store (full price on T-Mobile)
  • Sell my current Android phone on eBay
  • Use proceeds from eBay sale to pay off Android EIP
  • Lower my T-Mobile bill now that it won't include an EIP for the iPhone I paid full price for

See any "bugs" in this plan? If I can get the iPhone sooner this way, it seems sound...

I'd cancel JUMP and buy AppleCare, so insurance would be covered. That would save an additional $10 a month.
 
Another morning of disappointment. *sigh*

No tracking, no text, no email, no cc charge, UPS says nothing when I search by reference. Although I did get an email reply from John Legere's email address just saying that I would hear from someone shortly.

Since I ordered the router last night, I'm sure I'll be getting all kinds of texts and emails about it. I'm surprised I don't have a tracking number for it yet!

I actually have to go to work today, so I won't be on here as much as I was this weekend. Best of luck to you all today. We've become so close that I feel like sending you some Christmas cards this year... since we'll likely still not have our phones by then.. :(
 
Preordered iPhone 6+, 64 GB, Gold 9/14
Status: backordered / processed but not ready for shipment

T-Mobile chat told me iPhone 6+ jump upgrades estimated delivery time is 4 weeks.
 
Does the source code trick actually work, or has it worked for anyone? If so, how do you check it?

The estimated delivery date is hidden on the page and the "source code trick" just shows it. However, from my experience, the only thing that is happening is that every night at about 9P, if the phone wasn't shipped, it's just incremented by one day. So, my original delivery date was 9/20, and it's just being incremented by one day every night. So, doing this doesn't really do anything at this point.

Sounds fine, except for the buy an iPhone 6+ in store part. That might take awhile. You don't have to pay EIP off unless you cancel your account completely, doesn't matter if you are no longer using it.

Is the source code on the order status page or something?
 
Well I ordered This past Friday and woke up to a text saying my order is shipping, with a tracking number.
 
For people that ordered 16GB models, I just received a 6 and 6+ today. I picked them up at UPS via Will Call. I had ordered on 9/12 just like a lot of people here.

The packaging was still a bubble mailer. It's not the best, but the boxes didn't get too banged up. A couple of the corners were definitely dinged, but that's ok. T-Mobile should definitely use boxes next time though. Bubble mailers are only good for - let's see, items worth less than $5.

I'll also say, I had a tracking number since Saturday. There was no activity until this morning around 12:30am. Once it was in the hands of UPS, it was in my city in a few hours.
 
how is your i6 plus shipping? i know its still backordered.

weird that t-mobile let me use JUMP again. i have LG G3 this is only 2months old..

its still best getting the JUMP rather than sell it on craigslist. T-Mobile is paying $548 for the G3. there's no way i can sell my G3 that price on CL lol
