If my ship date is truly going to be 9/30, i am going to have issues as my closing on my house got moved up a week. Went to my local verizon store, but they can't do anything because it was an online order. Now trying to change addresses or see what can be done. Hopefully this doesnt turn into a bigger CF than it already is.

Your best bet may actually be to deal directly with the carrier if VZW won't help. UPS will hold it at a distribution center, FedEx will reroute to a FedEx store, both at no charge.

My local apple store had the phone I wanted so I came to pick it up and now I'm waiting for the cancellation of my Verizon order to go through. It was still showing that I had an order with them:mad:. Also, for those of you who were asking, yes, the Verizon Monthly Payment Plan can be done in the Apple Store. That's what I'm doing

Did they cancel your order or did you cancel it yourself? How long did it take for it to cancel?

Did you have the iPhone for $0 offer too
 
Done. Phone in hand. 100% painless. I'm surprised it went so smoothly. Had to step up to the 256gb model because they didn't have 128, but I'm fine with it. I don't think I'll bother with a preorder next cycle.

I cancelled it myself. It says it's cancelled but it kept showing on Apple's system. A Verizon rep told me it could take 1 to 2 hours. Hopefully not or I'm going to lose this phone

No, I'm not doing that. Just the payment plan with Verizon

Nice man. Glad it worked out for you!! I was thinking about going to. But I kinda prefer the jet black. I just wish I knew how much longer I had to wait. If I know I'd be pushed back I would get the black but I have a ship by 28th of this month. So I prob hold off to see if I get any movement this week. I don't want to jump the gun. So they were able to cancel pre order and activate that one on spot no issues ?

Do you have the reserve link?

Not sure. Canceled it via phone through an automated system. About an hour later I tried to order on Apple.com to see if I was eligible and I was.

No I cancelled ahead of time. That reserve link doesn't check your eligibility, so I reserved one before cancelling.

No more pluses left guess im still waiting thanks

There were a bunch on there when I checked but you could see them dropping off. Initially I tried with a 128 but it was taken before I could finalize the reservation. It says they update at midnight, but they had to have updated just before I checked mid morning.
 
Im all alone.... there's no cc charge to comfort me.... lol
Anything yet? My original date was also 9/23 - ended up shipping on Thursday but 2-day shipping. Scheduled for Tuesday but I hope it gets here tomorrow. 256Gb 7+ Black. I ordered it at like 12:02am on the day they went on sale.

Anyway, I'm sure yours will be shipping soon too. Previous years I have had luck finding them at Best Buy and Target. They would be able to cancel your order and it usually takes just a bit for it to fall off. Something to check into while you wait. Every year it seems like I end up ordering and then it doesn't come in right away, so I start the hunt locally.
