T-Mobile.com preorder thread

FEELS LIKE FOREVER!!

Worst part is that my iPhone 5c has gone crazy on me and Im at the point I REALLY need my new phone (when I ordered I just wanted it). It no longer can keep time, which seems to effect my ability to have iMessage, Facetime, and even download/update apps. I know it sounds crazy but its true.

Ordered on 9/30 the following:
iPhone 6+ / 64gb / Space Grey (Current says 11/11 awaiting shipment from Apple)
iPhone 6 / 64gb / Silver (Says it will be in stock 10/27 but will not ship until other iPhone is ready to ship)

Switching from Verizon - new customers to TMobile.

I would check the "View all alerts and activity" area in your "My T-Mobile" area of your account to make sure your order wasn't cancelled like what happened to some of the others on here....

Yeah the order is still there, it's just weird that the Alert is gone. I don't know if I should be concerned or relieved, but my date hasn't changed once. I see alot of movement on dates throughout this thread, but mine hasn't moved from 10/31 since the site first went live.

Agree....but it could be a factor for why they are so backlogged, if they delayed production a wee bit..

also, it will encourage people to order the 6 if they get it sooner...

I know I shouldn't keep looking for an answer to why this thing seems to have spiraled into the abyss...knowing doesn't change when I will actually get my phone. On the other hand, if I knew when it was coming, I could stop obsessing about it :mad:

Obsessing is putting it lightly! Between being on My T-Mobile, MacRumors, YouTube, and Google'ing (sp?) "t-mobile iphone 6+ availability", I've spent a ton of time on this lol

There's no delivery date yet but it does say this at the bottom:

It may take up to 48 hours for tracking details to be available on the carrier website

On the tool page, it's still stuck at "awaiting more iphone shipments. expected ship date on or before 10/25/2014" as of 10/18/2014.

Got it. I'm going a little crazy waiting for this phone lol
 
No changes again for me this morning. My ERT called last night and she just told me what I already knew. That it'd ship on or before 10/22. Because I KNOW that it'll be shipped at any moment, I think my obsession for checking on my order has increased a lot, haha!

Nearly all 64GB's and nearly all Space Grey's are gonna be a long wait. 64GB was the most popular storage option and Space Grey the most ordered color.
 
The 16 GB 6+ seems to be the only ones in stock anywhere. You would think Apple would make more of the 64GB and 128GB 6+ instead of the 16GB.

This has to be the worst iPhone release ever.

Yeah I knew for the 6+ in that combo would be 6-8 weeks, they told me that when ordering. I just hate that my current iPhone is acting nuts - its not even that old.
 
Well the good news is that people getting their phones after today can immediately upgrade to iOS 8.1 and start using Apple Pay and the other features (and you get Camera Roll back too!).

How accurate is the IP6 order status on T-Mobile?

Mines states, "Awaiting more shipments from apple. Will ship on or before 10/25"

Ordered 10/15 SG 64GB IP6!

How are you liking the phone? Is it uncomfortable in your pockets?
 
So I updated to 8.1 and went to Walgreens to purchase a pack of gum and put my finger on the touch ID and my phone on the NFC reader and nothing! Despite the long line behind me, I kept trying and trying. But than I realized that TMO hasn't shipped my 6+ on or before 10/18 like they said they would. I walked out the store, my head down in shame with my 5S in my hand.

Let me know if you do switch, I can refer you for the T Mobile promotion of unlimited LTE for 12 months. ;)

thanks for the heads up. reading through the posts above, it might be another month or so before i can actually switch, because i'm considering a family plan with 2 5s', and 1 6 or 6+.


For anyone who know:

What happens if I'm porting my phones from AT&T to T-Mobile, and there's a delay in shipment? Am I stuck with a disabled line (or all 3 lines), until I actually receive the 6?

You can switch over at any time. Just buy new sims ($10) from T-Mobile in a store and swap it out of your current phone. Then they'll port over your ATT number there and then. I did mine all in-store on 9/19. I have an iPhone 5. They gave me a new sim, process the order for the 6+ and less than an hour later, my former AT&T number was working on my phone under T-Mobile.
 
I'm giving up hope for this week, it'll keep me sane. Only this Nokia windows phone is driving me crazy. I thought, since I have wait, why not try out a windows phone for a week or two? A month with it and I hate it. Best thing is I can use mobile hotspot for my 5s (Sprint doesn't unlock their phones -_-). Backordered Hell.
