The CANADA iPhone 5 Pre-Order STATUS Thread!

aricebox said:
Anyone living in Toronto who has one already? I've tried checking the Apple store/Rogers stores to see if they'll give/sell me one before Friday (I don't want to deal with the crowds).

I live in the Beaches and will be at a class tomorrow night downtown between 5-7. I have an extra nano-sim. I picked them up for 2 people here and only one person followed through to pay and I sent it out the next day. I have a receipt from the Roger's store at Queen/Hammersmith in the Beach and if you need/want it tomorrow I can arrange to meet you around where I live or where I will be at my class (John/Richmond) tomorrow just before 5:00 or just after 7:00

If I don't sell it ($9.99 plus tax) I can simply return it to the store I bought it from...
 
Just talked to one of my carrier contacts, and their stores started receiving stock today here in the Vancouver region. They mentioned that their seemed to be a short supply of 64gb phones in the shipments.

So, we know that there is stock in Canada already anyways:)

I have been to 2 fido stores and 2 wireless waves and only one would sell me a nano sim. But they didn't have fido ones in stock yet.

The others said "nope sorry if we sell before Friday apple will sue us". It's not even an apple product you morons!!!!

Whatever guess i'll go on Friday.
 
I purchased my sim cards online because every rogers store i called they asked me to come saturday or monday because they only have enough for preorders. Now im hoping sim card will get delivered in 2 days

I can pick that up from you if u haven't sold it yet.. I'll be working around the yonge an Eglinton area tomorrow but I got a co worker that works down by the beaches..
 
Was a little worried earlier, but my 64GB black iPhone reserved at Rogers has been shipped!
 
I got my order in exactly at midnight PST on pre-order day, my CC has been charged, but no ups.ca update with my reference number and apple.com still shows as "preparing for shipment"
 
can anyone get fido nano?

I called fido stores and nothind and I called wireless wave all around Surrey, Guildford, Langley and they say they have them all accept for fido right now. does anyone know where to get them?? I am trying to avoid having to go to an apple store or a fido store on launch day.
 
I have been speaking with a supervisor out of Austin, TX over the past few days. She just informed me both of my iphones are in Pennsylvania but won't likely be shipping until tomorrow morning.

Holiday shipping is only available in the US, but 1-2 business day shipping is the expedited option for Canadian orders.

So it would appear that an end of day Friday delivery is still very possible.


Order confirmation September 14, 1:10AM MST

Mine says Preparing for Shipment but of course most likely the status will change the day of the release no worries. I just went to Virgin Mobile and activated up a nano sim on a plan, I know that its going to be crazy Friday so I activated up a line before hand, I do recommend those who can do so to do it before Friday cause Friday may be crazy, you may have to line up to activate a line. Doesn't hurt not using the service for two days, as soon as you get your iPhone pop your sim card in and your good to go and didn't have to leave your house at all.

they only sold me the SIM, wouldn't activate a line until friday.. hrmm.. maybe the guy was just lazy
 
I got a bunch of Rogers and Fido LTE nano sims for friends. Wireless Wave in West Vancouver sells them.

I ordered my white iPhone 64 GB on 1:23 AM Pacific time , It then said it will ship in 2 weeks. When i log on to Apple store to to see my order status it says this :

iPhone 5 64GB White & Silver (GSM)
Available: 2 weeks
Delivers 9 Oct via Standard Shipping

So when do i expect to receive my phone ? Could this date be a mistake ? Has anyone had the same problem ?

Err, there's no problem there. You ordered late so you went into the second delivery bucket. Why do you think there's a mistake?
 
Finally found the preciousssssessess....

I live in Canada and mine says holiday..
 
My sister's 16GB White shipped via the Rogers reservation system earlier today and she was originally #1500. Yet my unlocked preorder is still sitting at "Preparing for Shipment" for over two days now. Hopefully mine isn't coming from China when it ships tomorrow, or else I won't be getting it on Friday :( Here's hoping!
 
I'm going to bed. I hope to see an email delivery confirmation in the morning good night to you all
 
Ordered 12:04PST. Had my card charged yesterday so it would make sense it would be on the way to Northern BC for Friday! Can't wait to get rid of this tethered unlocked 3GS!
