T-Mobile.com preorder thread

[sweetsummer]

Just a FYI, if you are interested in an iphone 6 16gb, most T mobile physical stores will have a few. If they don't, they will receive more every few days (most of the time on Friday). my store told me to check in around 1-2pm on Fridays for new stock. stores do NOT know what kind of iphone they will get, so you do need to check every few days or at least once a week.

i was able to get a silver 16gb i6 today... walked in the store, and walked out with the phone 20 minutes later.

i know a lot of you are waiting on higher storage or the plus models, best of luck to you all and hopefully you don't have to wait any longer. but if u want the 16gb 6, then u might be in luck

Order Update

Okay, folks. Here's what I got:

I ordered iPhone 6 (4.7 inch) 128 GB Space Gray on Monday evening (Oct. 20th) around 8 pm eastern. I paid for overnight shipping.

As of this writing my order still shows "Backordered" and "Pending Shipping".

BUT. . .my credit card was charged within the last hour.

Does that mean it will arrive in the next several days?

Yes. That combination is a lot faster to receive.

Just a guess, and maybe I am overstating the obvious, or perhaps I just don't know what I'm talking about....but, I would have to assume that Apple is having a problem with the supplier of their 64 GB flash memory chip??? resulting in the delay of shipments on the 64 GB devices....

I've just been tRacking them manually. That is cool.

can't win

Jim they are saying you can't cancel, now they are taking your money when at first they were not. I ordered 9/19 and they still have not charged my card. So go figure.

Sounds like a good sign. Who knows.

This is pretty weird, it is past 8:30PM PST on Friday and the iPhone order status tool still hasn't been updated. Next projected update is now Monday the 27th since they usually don't update it on weekends.

Makes me wonder if they are doing a massive update of some sort.

The iPhone status tool has always updated & emailed me on Saturdays, maybe you're confused?

I'm just beyond myself with all this, double cancelled order, success on Sept 20, still waiting with the few of you. Those who ordered in Oct, Damn you should have seen it coming, regardless of what any rep said to you. The funny thing is this, I'm sure something is physically going to be wrong or it's going to bend, or it will not be perfect. Anyway, this is just a bunch of ****, the nexus 6 will be my choice if ch-Apple ( apple buys China) can't deliver. And as it stands, they can't!! Oh dear

Which model and GB ? I am curious as to know if I won't be receiving mine until 2015. ):

 

[Jim1322]

Shipped

My iPhone 6 (4.7 inch) 128 GB Space Gray is scheduled for delivery on Monday--exactly one week after I ordered it.

I got the charge on the credit card early last night and shipping notification later in the evening after the package departed Louisville.

Another poster on here suggested that combo comes fast, and apparently he was right.

BTW- On the order status page it still says "Backordered" at the top but instead of "Pending Shipping" it says "Shipped".

 

[naesatt]

Backordered Again...

Checked My T-Mobile, and my order was updated to:

"BackOrder 10/24/2014 at 01:17:05 AM"

I also paid off the remaining balance on my EIP for my iPhone 5 yesterday, and I requested the unlock code for that phone in preparation to listing it on eBay after my 6+ arrives =)

 

[ryankidd17]

You: the site https://explore.t-mobile.com/order-status, it has not been updated. Should I no longer rely on the info being provided here?
KxxxxG: Let me just double check that for you.
You: Thanks
KxxxxG: No, thank you for your patience with me.
KxxxxG: Yes, please don't rely on that information. That is just an estimated delivery date. It will still depend on the inventory of the device.

Well, there you have it. I am no longer going to refresh that page.

Mine hasn't been updated since 10/21. Was supposed to ship on/before 10/24.

Are we both talking about this?

https://explore.t-mobile.com/order-status

I made the observation last week that it seems to only update Monday through Friday at 8:30PM PST. The last update on this page was 10/21. Perhaps I'm wrong.

I've never had it email me before, I guess I'll find out.

 

[LillyLand]

Isn't this for the Verizon/Apple shipments only?

I copied the Verizon spreadsheet, took out all the user info and the peeps on the t-mobile thread put in their own info.

Sorry I may have quoted the wrong person, but I was referencing the flightaware link that shows the planes carrying the iPhone shipments.

 

[dominiongamma]

So I ordered iphone 6 plus space gray 64 gb on the 9/16 and the tmobile site said should recieve on or before the 28th. Think it will ship today or start of next week?

Ahhh! Gotcha!

 

[dominiongamma]

My new date moved to December!! And I ordered it sept 16 I hope the tmobile tracking system is wrong! it said 28th of this month originally

 

[jessica24]

well sad day for me! After seeing the order status sit at on/before 10/24 since Tuesday, I looked this afternoon and sometime between 10am and 1pm, my status changed to on/before 11/12/2014. 6 weeks out from order date, which I'd have been fine with if it had been consistent throughout this whole process.
Anyone else have this happen?

Looking forward to my ERT member calling me tomorrow and having a chat about this (considering she confirmed the 10/24 ship date last Wednesday).

Space Gray, 64gb, iPhone 6
Ordered 10/1

 

[thecrowtv]

UN FN BELIEVEABLE !

I ordered on 9/16

First time the tool told me 10/28, then I got an email saying 10/18, then 10/22, back to 10/28 and now Dec 4th.

I hope this an error on their part otherwise I better be getting a free upgrade to the 128 GB since those seem plentiful.

This is exactly synced to what happened to me. Ordered same phone 14 days after you 10/15 and my estimated shipping changed last week from 10/24 to 11/26, again the equivalent of yours. The order status site updated today as it's supposed to, but the date is still the same november one :/ I called my local T-Mobile store yesterday and they only had 16GB sixes, matching what the i-device stock availability sites say.

As others have iterated, this is a totally unprecedented launch. Worse than the Wii, lol. I remember going to my local Sprint store 3 years ago, less than an hour before opening and got my iPhone 4S on launch day effortlessly.

 

[AST4277]

Just checked on my two orders and both remain at 10/31. I have no faith that TMO will hit the mark, but any date in December is ludicrous. If I don't have the phone within a week of the 10/31 date then I will hold on to my two 5 models and sit out until next year. If that happens I will also stick with ATT even though it may cost me a bit more.
