T-Mobile: iPhone 6S/6S Plus Pre-Order Thread:

Starting to regret ordering the Rose Gold 6S Plus. I panic-ordered it after my original order placed on Saturday for a 128GB 6S Plus Gold was incorrectly placed as a regular 6 Plus Gold. To avoid going through that debacle again I had a replacement order done for a 6S Plus 128GB Rose Gold, that way I was guaranteed a 6S Plus.

But now with all this talk of Rose Gold shortages and people getting their confirmations of SG and Gold 6S Plus shipments by the 24th looks like that wasn't the brilliant idea I thought it was....

:):):apple:;):(:):):):););)Device Ordered: 6s+ 64GB Silver
Status per the explore and my TMo homepage: Expected to ship on 9/24
Order Number Scheme : 2248

I ordered at 3:30am est on the TMo website with the little upgrade button underneath your phone icon on the main page (on an iPad mini with horrible wifi signal in my driveway.) no problems except for me being stupid and putting my CVV code in wrong a couple of times. I am not a JoD! Or even a Jump customer. I have been with TMo since last year. I paid $99 down and $56 tax. I signed my EIP at 3:43 and received a confirmation like 2 minutes later. I sat back and relaxed. I never saw the more info on 9/20 or whatever it is tall did the same day I saw yall mentioning that mine was updated to its current status of "Expected to ship 9/24"
Overall I have had a good experience this year compared to being a new customer with 4 lines last year and having to deal with that whirlwind. I think they have it handled this year it just took them a little longer to enter orders. Also I have been following the flight aware and it's pretty much the same every day. I'm not quite sure if the flights that's are mentioned on there are linked to iPhones but they seem to be pretty much schedule set. I just can't wait for that SWEET SWEET TRACKING CODE!! ::Licking fingers:: THAT SWEET... NASTY... DISGUSTING... LIFE DECISION CHANGING... TRAAAAACCCKKING COOOOODE!!!

So I'm guessing that since I ordered my iPhone 6 S+ yesterday but I probably won't be getting my phone or a notification for a while is that assumption correct. Or should I hopefully get my phone around the same time everyone else's even though I ordered it about 5 days later? I haven't received any update since yesterday but that's because I just got the done yesterday at the T Mobile store I guess my question over all is when should I expect to have my card chargers and does anyone think I may get this on launch day or close to it ????

You should have done jump. Not only was it a cheaper way to buy the iPhone but jump customers had 48hours of first priority shipments so anyone not doing jump didn't get their order put into the system until Monday. If there is enough units yours will ship on time but I have a feeling that some people will find theirs back ordered if Apple shortens t-mobile on orders since jump customers get priority.

Technically you could call up and change to jump, but at this point you'd probably be pushed to the end of the line; however you do get it over $100 in savings so it might be worth it for you. Your tax payments are also split up in the lease so if you decide to jump to the iPhone 7 next year you only pay a portion of the tax you normally would if you bought it for full price saving you a little more.

I just got an alert that my credit card has been charged $109.49 (TMOBILE*UPGRADE). I ordered the 64GB Gold 6s last Saturday afternoon in store. (I was already on the JoD plan). It is for the 6s and the order status link still says the same thing- "Expected to ship by 9/24".

I ordered the same thing in the first 40 minutes of pre-orders last Saturday. I just checked online banking... no charge yet. I ordered by phone - no jump or jod; just regular upgrade, even though I asked for jod....

Ouch!!!
All Jump! and JoD will get priority over regular orders... Might be a while til you see a phone, hopefully it won't be like this, but at least that's what CSR's and ERT's have mentioned top many of us.
 
Something that surprises me:

Something that concerns me:

Somehow feels like a tad too many people 'expected for 24th.' Who knows, maybe T-Mobile had great stock this year/less orders... Or maybe too many people are being defaulted to 'expected for 24th.' Feels like the latter due to the inconsistency of who's got a shipping estimate and who hasn't.

I guess it's all conjecture until we get tracking numbers. Anyhow, excited to see where this goes!

It says it on the jump faq page

Q: Why do they get priority access?
  • We always put existing customers first. Since our JUMP! and JUMP! On Demand customers are part of these programs to get the latest technology, we are giving them this special offer.
  • All other orders are prioritized in the order they’re received, including orders from JUMP! and JUMP! On Demand customers that are placed after 12:01 am PT September 14, and we’ll be working hard to turn around customer orders as quickly as possible starting on September 25th.

http://newsroom.t-mobile.com/news/t...89491&cmpid=WTR_AF_189491&irpid=10451&irgwc=1

Not only do you get priority shipment but you get to buy it for less than the normal monthly plan since you get a $7 credit per month special giving you a $126 discount on the cost of any iPhone.

The deal explained.

Just checked and the status for 2 iPhone 6S + Rose gold changed to "scheduled to ship by 9/24,,,"

If it is true, I am stoked! That means all 4 orders will get here by release day, fingers crossed. This is after the CSR randomly told me yesterday that they were cancelled. One more week and we will see.

Best of luck to everyone !!!

This is why I explicitly asked that all my orders be entered separately. I hope that you can call and at least get one of the phones on release day. You do have them both under one order? Right?
