Someone please help... If i sign up for Verizon on a new 2 year plan and do an in store pick up, go there and tell them i want to purchase phone outright without contract, can i do so? Will verizon have any sort of credit check or charge on my account? Thanks!

Anyone know? Thanks!
 
It's just a counter for stats/fun/analyse/check (not a marketing tool, no targeting, that's just google analytics).

Writing this, I'm thinking
When you click go
= 1 tmobile request
= when you click a tab one request for the selected operator

=> So the tmobile number is way higher than it should be. We may change this, so that tmobile isn't loaded by default. We found convenient to gave the unlocked phones without extra click bar the "Go".

Well give you insights when alerts are ON, so that you may have an idea of what ppl are looking for (and/or where).

That's just fun the fun of it, we're not datamining anything.
 
i have a question about apple store pickup. so if i place an order today, what is the period of time i can pick the phone up before they cancel my order? thanks

I got these:

iPhone 6 ordered on Sep 22: must pick up by Sep 28

iPhone 6+ ordered Sep 24: must pick up by Oct 5

But I'm not sure if these are the standard ones. I asked Apple and they said it was up to 3 days standard, if you want to extend it you can call Apple and they'll do it.

ok thanks because i saw one phone pop up in the store an hour away from me, i was unsure because i am not free until the weekend. good to know now so i can just buy one tonight when it is pop up again
 
Is there the option to pay in person for in store pickup?


I don't think so

Thanks for everything when will email alerts be active?
 
If anyone is military check your base exchange cell phone store. A base by me on leave is getting plus on the daily but can also do home delivery for what they have in stock.Guy in front of my mom in line walked up and got a 64gb plus. He's going to call tomorrow when he gets some and I can buy over the phone to hold it.
 
Looks not-so-reliable. It shows a configuration in stock in various Apple stores that is not in stock at those Apple stores.

Found a target on that site by pentagon city. They've got a couple different models, the mobile guy was not there though so they wouldn't sell me one.
 
Be careful with Target, I saw a 6+ on Verizon in stock at my local store on target.com, I went then talked to the gent at the mobile kiosk and said he does not have any 6+ and did not have any since launch while their website said it was in stock. He only had regular 6's in stock. :mad:

So make sure to call to confirm before heading to Target. ;)
 
Something's not adding up....

So after looking for the past few days and trying all the tracker sites, I thought I'd take a run by the Apple store in person and see if I could chat with someone about when stuff shows in inventory and if they hold stuff back to sell. The Apple person I spoke with said as phones come in, as soon as they scan them they show up in inventory and it's live on-line. I asked if it would be worth coming early and just waiting in line - he said they seem to get a few each day, but they sell out to the first few people in line.

That's the part that doesn't make sense - if they have them to sell to the first few in line, why don't we see them pop up in inventory around the country at around 10 when the stores open? They have to be keeping some out???

The other piece it find interesting - he said they only received a few today and none on AT&T, this is at the Apple store on Michigan Ave in Chicago - I'd venture to say a big market and a flagship store. That's more than what I would call "constrained" - that's sounds like they're just not ramped up at all. I mean look at everyone trying to find the plus and a large store is only getting a few? Sadly it also just fuels the scalper market.

Thanks, my hopes were not high. The store employee that said there mobile guy wasn't there showed me a list with a few different 6,6+ models on it.
 
For me saying it's live-stock is kind of false. Cause we saw some major updates during the night at 3 am, and at that time no employee is in any store.
If stores would update live when iPhones are received upoon UPS delivery it would be during the day.

The stock showing on the Apple website is only for personal pickup. That is separate than the stock for sale in the store.

So they do keep it separate? So if we aren't seeing stock show up for personal pick-up, we may be better off waiting early at a store?
 
pay 2 yr price and switch to att next program when you pick it up

Last night I was able to almost get a 6+ for at&t but the problem was the att next does not allow personal pickup when I went to complete my order. I wanted to know if anyone has been able to pay the 2 yr price and then switch it over to the att next program?

Thanks!

i saw live stock at store an hour away from me every single day around 2-3AM, so to me, live stock is true around 2-3AM
