Eagerly anticipating wave 2 orders leaving China so us wave 3 orders can start scouting outgoing flights from ZZ. 😀

I'd rather my phone be sitting in Louisville for a couple of days, than sitting in ZZ right now. I know there's time. Plenty of time. But tell that to my anxiety. It doesn't listen.
To be clear, i'd rather have my phone sitting in Louisville right now! lol

I love poking fun at the human experience of expectation, anticipation, and fruition. The trials and tribulations of awaking my iPhone!
 
Two iPhones 16 PM ordered within seconds of each other. Not on same order. Mine is in KY, theirs still in China. Mine 512gb gold and theirs 256gb gold.
Looks like the phone that’s in wave 1 is already in KY, seems quite fast. Wave 2 is what I believe is in the photo that still shows Arrived at facility at 6:30PM 9/15. Hopefully wave 2 starts moving out tonight.

Probably. I have had some lunch calling ATT customer service and asking them to waive the fee. My account is on a corporate benefit plan (Foundation Account), and they usually do waive the fee. YMMV
When I had AT&T, they were always good about waiving the fee.
 
Does anyone have experience purchasing/preordering a phone and applying an Apple balance as a “down payment” before financing with Apple Card? I’ve been in the store and on the phone and no one can figure it out or tell me if it’s possible.
 
Yeah, I chatted with UPS through IG and got them to give me the tracking number.
Provide them with the following:

Shipment Reference: (Web Order Number)
Destination Country: United States
Destination ZIP/Postal Code: (00000)

Got this: (I sent them what I saw)
xxxxxxxxxxxxxx1111
On the Way
Estimated delivery: Friday, September 20 by 7:00 P.M.

I also provided my full name, full address, etc.
Long time lurker, used to be poster. First time doing through Apple instead of VZW on launch day. 512 PM black. I just chatted through instagram, chose the option that had a technical issue with MyChoice and used all the info stated above and they replied within a few minutes with my tracking. When I called earlier they said I had to contact the shipper. So now I manually added tracking to MyChoice.
 
In fairness AfterShip will give you false hope 😂 it doesn’t update regularly like UPS or even USPS. I have literally received packages and the AfterShip site will say in transit still after delivery and sometimes it will stay stuck on in transit until you mark it as delivered. Js.
