Hi all, so I finally managed to reserve an iPhone 4S for next day pickup. Now the bad news, I was using my father's iPad, so it was under HIS apple ID.

So, what kind of information is required upon pickup? Thanks in advance.

EDIT: Oh also, can I pickup EARLIER than the time I selected?

I just picked one up. They don't even check ID when you pick it up. All they need is Apple ID and the name that phone was reserved under. That is all.
 
Since it's under someone else's name, bring a copy of the confirmation e-mail just in case. I had a colleague pick up my iPhone 4S and the e-mail was sufficient.
 
OK thanks for the information!

They asked for my ID when I picked one up I reserved. But I can't remember at which point they asked. It was twice tho, the second time was checking ID when I used my debit card.

Hmm that's not so good...
 
Hmm I bet they asked the first time because I was adding a line to my family plan. They were probably just verifying I was the owner of the account.

Hmm I'm getting an unlocked one, so hopefully I won't get much hassle over this...
