I went to the store, only one there to order. Order 6s Space Gray 64gb. Got my EIP email immediately and confirmed...

They said they charge the $99 down payment again, but will refund me since I just paid it on the 6 2 weeks ago.

I'm hoping I get my phone early!!! I'm going out of town on the 25th and don't want to wait until I get back.

My order number starts with and S00...
 
Since I have an "00..." confirmation, I called and they said they had never heard of this and that my order was confirmed with JOD. Expect the EIP by Tuesday.

Sounds like not everyone has the same message at TMo.

Man I've gotten like 4 different answers. Latest answer is "you can't do JoD online." Then, after he actually looked at my freakin' account he said "oh you e talked to Solutions. That's high level customer service. I guess because you've called a lot (uh yeah 'cause y'all keep giving me different answers!). But your order is fine. It says here your order is in, just wait for the email within the next 24 hours after your order."

:-/
 
Haha I'm just letting you know what the guy told me. Once HE did my order, I got the email immediately.
You may have put yourself in the back of the line. The rep I spoke to said initially they were using the backup system but that does not mean the orders did not go through.

She said people who are receiving the S order numbers are new orders that were placed within the last couple of hours when they switched to their normal ordering system.

She also said the orders go out in order of the time they were placed and not by when you receive your EIP email.

thats a lie. i order online at 4am and have a S order#
 
Just got the email for one of phones for JOP

$129.51 not the $99 and I payed for shipping too. Not happy
 
I believe you. There's misinformation coming from everywhere. I don't believe an S order number is any better than a 00 number though.

I have a 22 order number so I don't think they mean anything this time around. Especially if someone ordering now is still getting 00 and others are getting SX.
 
Sweet Jebus this thread is a mess.

Everyone RELAX. These are phones, folks. It's literally been TEN hours max since any of you ordered. Give it awhile for the system to work the kinks out. This happens literally every iPhone launch at TMO. And guess what? Every year I've received my phone on the release date or a day or two later.

Everyone breathe!

Pre-ordered a gold 16GB 6s from Apple instead of T-Mobile, as it has insurance for just $5 more (after JOD's $20 intro month). Also getting it on day 1, rather than questioning when T-Mobile might have them.
If you kick in the $2"0
is it even possible to get it before the 25th? has that ever happened?
every year we see at least one or two in icings happen 2-3 days early. I was given the 19th as an estimated date for delivery. Shipping on the 17th with one day delivery time. Who knows? I'm honestly happy just getting it on the 25th.
 
That's the $99 + the full sales tax of the phone. What's the issue?

JOD shouldn't have the full sales tax amount added to the down payment like EIP does. It's a lease--the tax is added into the monthly payments.
 
9/12 1:34am PST - order placed
9/12 10:10am PST - still no EIP email.. called TMO rep and confirmed order has been placed... EIP email should be out by 48 hrs

Questions here are understandable IMO. Nobody wants to have been up in the middlemofnteh night, waiting on hold to get a preorder in, only to find out it didn't work. We are ordering because we want the device asap. If it didn't matter we would just wait until plentiful stock lol.
 
Everyone breathe!

...you must be new here lol.

Regardless of what anyone says, or how they try to justify X, Y and Z...

...iPhone pre-order day is an American Holiday. It is the Olympics of the mobile tech world. And your "gold medal" performance is getting it on launch day.

Peoples main concern is getting their product when they're supposed to get it and not in October or November (in case you haven't seen the AT&T thread 0_o)

This makes sense, but I'm unsure why the monthly payments don't vary when the device is purchased in s tax free state. We bought one device in New Hampshire and another in Massachusetts and the monthly fee isnexactlynthe same.
