I just got a delay from T-Mobile. Ordered 9/27, was supposed to ship Nov 8. Now it says Nov 18th. I see people are just going to the Apple Store and buying them... can you still finance them through T-Mobile if you do it that way?

Sadly no. They do offer a credit card deal but if credit is a issue then your better off going through tmo. I though I heard they have a second financial option but idk.

That's true. Local carrier stores are often lousy for getting iPhone 6 and 6 Plus. Having said that, my friends and coworkers who ordered 6 Plus through AT&T Verizon website received their phones. And many ordered much later than me (9/26).

Congrats on getting the etf fixed without dealing with the hassle of ordering another phone through tmo

Thanks for this. Credit's not an issue, but I can't beat the 2 years with zero interest that T-Mobile offers... so I'll wait for the phone. My iPhone 5 still works great.
 
I wasn't going to buy the note 4 but got these today in the mail. Worth the wait.

So just got an email from tmobile and ups! I am getting the iPhone 6 plus 128gb gold that my ERT ordered today! I should have ordered that one from day one!! Now I can finally sell my Verizon unlocked phone! Anyone need a silver 64gb ip6+? Lol
 
So emailing John/ER really works! I'm the guy who found an iphone in the Apple store, only to be told by Tmobile's regular customer service that they wouldn't reimburse my ETF because I didn't get the iPhone through an official Tmobile dealer.

Got a call from a nice woman in ER today who said she would take care of everything and they would 100% cover my ETF. Her timing was good because I was trading messages through Twitter with Tmobile's regular customer service when she called. The regular customer service literally told me to change my order and get a "less expensive device" if I couldn't wait for my iphone to arrive in the mail. WTF...
 
I was just charged in the last hour or so!!!


No movement since my order date of 9/20. I'm curious to see what's next!

YMMV depending on the Apple store and who you talk to in that Apple store.

After hearing multiple stories of people being able to buy phones on EIP at an Apple store, I went to my local one and asked. Sure enough, they are able to process EIP upgrades. I didn't ask about JUMP! upgrades, however.

Give your store a call or swing by to find out. And if someone tells you no, ask for the store manager. It seems like some associates don't know for sure or maybe they're just not trained in how to process T-Mobile upgrades.
 
I just got charged but it charged me for shipping too when it was supposed to be free. Hopefully I can get that money back from the next day shipping but at least I finally got charged.

When they say "free" shipping they mean they'll charge you then credit you the price on your account. So no matter what we still pay for shipping but get reimbursed on the next bill(s)
 
Yes!

CC was charged tonight. Status still says on or before 11/13/2014. I hope that this is a good sign! Although I've heard people have been charged, only to get the charged reversed. We'll just have to see I guess. Anyone have any clue how much after the CC charge do they send you out the e-mail notifications?

It was about 20 hours for me...
oh, and congratulations! :p
 
UPS sucks! So my phone shipped on Monday and the arrival date was for today now I get something saying it will be next Monday. So I called UPS to see what was going on and come to find out they sent my phone on the wrong truck. I live on the west cost and they put it on a truck to Virginia. Then it got sent back to Kentucky and only yesterday it left their facilities from Kentucky again. UPS basically told me that it sucks to be me and there is nothing they can do. T-Mobile told me that they don't have control over the shipping as I would expect. So I guess I will be happy I have one being sent to me but it sucks I have to sit around another weekend without it
 
Did anyone who got charged yesterday get an email confirmation? My CC was charged yesterday, but I didn't get an email.
