Yes pretty much. Apple is not the only one that is located here. Amazon also has a warehouse within our facility and many other big companies that do a lot of shipping. But Apple is the most secure. No one I know has any clue of what really happens there lol. I know it sounds crazy but the truth. As far as how the carriers work, I believe everything goes through Apple until we ship. Then we bring innovatory to both the carriers directly and also of course directly to the customer. I am a little foggy about how that part works. It's out of our realm lol.
Yeah. But we can't complain too much considering the are doing overnight shipping. And other still waiting to just be charged =\

Lol daaaang! So Apple pretty much has everyone by the nuts! Haha so I guess tmobile wasn't lying when they said they didn't know what they were getting in stock haha
Ya, as far as I can tell Apple gives them whatever Apple gives them. Right now the carriers don't have any say over anything.
This new UPS info would have been pretty awesome if I had been charged. Why don't you want my damn money, Tmobile?? ARGH.
I am happy for the others that ordered on the 12 that get good news though. Less happy for those that ordered after us.

Wish I had more answers but all UPS does is ship lol. We are really good at that but all this other stuff we hate. It's almost like politics to us. We just want to do our job but because of Apple its a very complicated system.

Sorry to hear about that. Hopefully you will hear something later tonight or tomorrow.

Quick question, when the Planes land during the early hours. Like 1am-5am are UPS and Apple working? Or does Apple come in at a later time?
Things never stop here. Our facility including Apple is up and running at full function 24/7, especially right now.
Yes! I'm very worried. I don't want to make a mistake in getting the wrong phone.
I am going to buy a case, but I want a slim case. I almost feel like it won't be enough. I do like to carry my phone in my front pocket a lot.
I can't believe it my status just changed to shipped. The tracking number isn't showing up in UPS but it's there in the T-Mobile system. I am so excited and at least I know it's coming. I got the case for it today and I just hope it's not too big. This has been one crazy week. Just hope to have it by Saturday.

I'm with you.
I haven't been reading all your posts - did you verify with the ERT/Customer Service that your order is still valid?
Great news for us. Thanks for the hard work you guys do
Well, thank you. I work in PR so my job has been hell the last week but all in all I am just glad people are finally getting there phones!
You know the worst thing for me right now is that I happen to be working overnights for a little bit and i keep getting woken up early so I get constantly check for updates all day and all night T_T
Great news for us. Thanks for the hard work you guys do

Joining In...
Have been lurking for awhile and decided to join in the conversation. Excited to see that the early birds are finally getting some good news about shipment.

No charge. No label. No change of status on any front. Got that 9/22-9/30 text and reassured like 40 times I'll be getting it in that time frame. So far nuttin.
I agree It's not fair that they have been waiting this long for their phone even though they ordered early.
Thanks very much, I appreciate it. I know how hard the folks at UPS work, my late husband worked there a few years, and it was by no means an easy job. I'm always grateful to you guys for what you do.
Not gonna lie!! I sorta feel bad for tmobile just cuz they really have their hands tied behind their backs. It's all on whatever Apple gives them and on their time. I'm not excising tmobile for their system and pre order mistakes it's just with all of us bitchin at them they really didn't know much at all LOL learn something new everday!
