    The threads regarding Next being unavailable online in NY were true. As a result, I upgraded using a 2 year upgrade. Since it was 3am and I could barely see my iPhone screen, I upgraded the line without an available upgrade. $808 is the charge, but only $405 was available on my CC and the app only allows one card.

    The order went through, but I need to put the extra money on that card before they try to charge the full amount.

    I'm putting my iPad Air 64GB on eBay today and I'm hoping I can pay the bill in time.

    So how long do I have before Apple tries to charge the full amount?

    I already have a hold on my debit card for the whole $749 amount. Showed up about an hour after I placed my order on apple.com
