T-Mobile.com preorder thread

I've just stopped caring. I've consumed too much time obsessing over this damn phone. I'm still holding out for the phone I actually ordered though. I'm not going to let them give me one I don't want. Tomorrow will be 6 weeks and I've seen no movement at all. Just frustration.

I'll still be checking in from time to time and let you guys know if anything happens. Best of luck to you all, especially J2funny.
 
And officially cancelled my order for the 64 GB Silver Plus and placed an order for the 128 GB Gold. Hopefully that 4-7 day estimate is true. Either way, after waiting since the 19th I've started to want a 128 GB phone instead anyways. lol
 
Jason just called me. He placed me a new order for a 128gb Gold 6+. He mentioned that the system showed the Silver and Gold 6+'s in stock, but technically the estimated waiting time is 4 to 7 days. So I signed a new EIP. I did not cancelled my 64gb order though, as this new order might get stuck, I will just cancel my 64gb IF the 128gb ships out first, or vice versa . He said that the 128gb might ship tonight, lets see if miracles do happen. :rolleyes:

I assume you had to pay the difference, right? They're not being that nice, are they? Did you ask for a free upgrade?
 
My ERT just called me.

She told me since my date hasn't changed in the past week (estimated 10/31/14) that my phone should be shipping this Friday and getting to me Monday.

I did the same thing just now. It doesn't matter what the color of the back is. It's going in a case.

Want to DM me your ERT's 7 digit extension. I think mine is out today.
 
I keep checking in here.... since mine is suppose to ship by the 3rd it makes me really curious if you halloween people get yours
 
Question:

I had them cancel my order and instead order me a 128GB Gold Plus. It obviously hasn't updated on the cool looking Order Status page(as that updates at night) but it has shown up on the my.tmobile.com status page. Right now when I do the ol' inspect element trick it shows estimated delivery as 10/28(tomorrow). Is that normal for a newly placed order? Will it change once everything updates tonight?
 
Talked to Jason (ERT) again today. He said he could not guarantee shipment by 10/31 but he was hopeful. When pressed, he had no answers. I asked specifically about the "big weekend shipment" and he admitted that they received less than anticipated. He said he has seen some dates slipping, but he thought it was good that my 10/31 date had not changed, but admitted that my system update for 10/27 would not happen until tomorrow.

I told him I will cancel these orders and the five lines I was bringing to T-Mobile if they miss yet again. He is scheduled to call on Wednesday and Thursday. I assume he will deliver the bad news then.

I think I am stepping away from this thread the rest of the day. Too pretty outside to let this ruin my mood.

I ordered the EXACT same phone as you and I paid $25 one day shipping. In store on Saturday. I hope it is true, because I'm a new customer and they made me an account there so I'm being paid and I don't even have a phone.

I'm not familiar with the inspect element trick. What is it?
 
I'm getting beyond infuriated. TekJams and I ordered our Unicorn phones on the same day. 6 weeks tomorrow! Isn't there a guy on here waiting since 9/13 for his phone? Granted Apple bears a lot of responsibility for this but Tmobile does as well for shipping out of order.

In Chrome go to https://account.my.t-mobile.com/myphone/checkorder.html and enter your order number and zip code. Once it pulls up right click on deliver method(I clicked on UPS Expedited|Next Day) and do inspect element. It should pop up a source code tree on the bottom of the window. Expand the "delivery-method pull-left", then expand "orderDetailsEstDelDate" and check out the estimatedDeliveryDate to see if it has anything in there. Mine currently shows 10/28 but I'm not sure if that's just a default date that's put there until things update.

Logging in to your account, checking the order status, then right clicking on "Delivery Method" and clicking "Inspect Element" will show you the HTML in Chrome. Then if you look at "orderDetailsEstDelDate" in the HTML it supposedly shows you a delivery date. However, this is completely bogus for me. It says 10/28/2014, which is tomorrow, and I ordered my 6+ 64GB Space Gray on 10/12 with an estimated delivery date of 11/24. There's no way that 10/28 is even a possible date for shipping on my order since so many people are still waiting from September for the same phone I ordered.

I think this "inspect element" trick just shows the part of the page that was hidden by T-Mobile once the order was created. That's probably the default delivery time for an order, which isn't correct for backordered iPhones.

...Yeah, mine says today is the estimated delivery date- which I'd be super excited about!! But, not thinking that's realistic (I ordered on Oct 1- 64g, iPhone 6, space gray), my current order status is ship on/before 11/12.

But here's to being hopeful??

Any chance you have Jason's extension. I haven't gotten my call today and can't find his extension.
 
You guys are not gonna believe this.... Like I said earlier, I got my 72hr call from ERT. A guy named Jason told me that they do have 128gb Gold 6+ in stock. I decided to place an order for it. 2hrs later I got confirmation from another ERT that the phone has been SHIPPED!!! Wtf!? I'm not making **** up, this is going to upset a lot of you guys, but try and see if you may be able to get one before they are gone. So I went ahead and cancelled my original order placed on September. I don't even know this was possible, but it happened... Good luck guys/gals!
 
I just did the HTML snoop and I have a delivery est. of 11/3. Strange, since they charged my card late yesterday afternoon. Girlfriend called TMO and they have no idea if/when the order is shipping. :confused:
