I will be pre-ordering on Verizon. I went to one of their stores this morning to make sure I knew exactly what to expect since I'm trading in my iPhone 5.
 
Getting it from Verizon's online store to keep my unlimited data. It'll be pricey, but I use a lot of data so it'll be more than worth it in the end. Hopefully they'll let us pre-order for the off-contract price.
 
Full retail

Is apple offering full retail with verizon? I did not see it only t mobile
 
I want to trade in my old iPhone 4 i have laying around for that $200 special verizon has. Can I order from apple and turn the phone into verizon and still get the deal?

in other threads it is looking like no, phone must be ordered through verizon. I was hoping the same but am going to order through verizon to not take any chances.
 
Does anyone know that if we pre order on the verizon site if we will be able to charge the phone to our account ?
 
Unlimited data?

I was told that I cannot keep my unlimited data with Verizon if I upgrade the phone. How are you all keeping the unlimited data?
 
Where can I see info about that promotion?

Info on the trade-in promotion can be found here.

I'll be ordering from Verizon to take advantage of the trade in promotion. Getting $200 in return for my 4S is pretty sweet. :D

Can't wait to start the pre-order process! Tracking and all that jazz is really exciting.
 
Actually you can order from apple. As long as its an upgrade price you are good to go. After it is activated go to a verizon store or mail it in and you will get the gift card. Just chatted with a verizon rep. I will post the convo below.

Hmm... That makes sense I guess. Basically, if you renew your contract, the deal is good.

Exactly. I want to do in store pickup because I work the night shift that night and I really don't want it sitting by my front door until I get home. Not that I don't trust the neighbors but you know....

Totally understand

This sucks for me though, because I am paying full price for my iPhone 6 plus, and was planning on taking advantage of the trade in offer.

Oh well...

Thanks! We have a spare 4 and 4S just sitting here and now we'll get $400 back in gift cards. I got a $100 off an iPad gift card from VZW Rewards today for 14,400 points too. Free iPad!!

Hmm, I called up Verizon an hour or two ago and was told the opposite. Specifically asked if I had to order from VZW.com, or if ordering from the Apple website would work too. Was told that I couldn't order from the Apple site and take advantage of the promotion, the order had to be directly from Verizon.

But it's possible that they didn't know what they were talking about! Either way, I'm not taking the risk. Although I've had better luck pre-ordering through Apple in the past, I'll give Verizon a shot. I have faith. :p
 
Anyone preorder from them in the past? I'm not waking up in the middle of the night but plan on doing it around 6am. Does that mean I won't receive my phone until next year? :)
 
I just called Verizon to check on some other stuff and the rep said they are SHIPPING on the 19th so I wouldn't receive it till the 22nd or 23rd. I told him he must be mistaken. He assured me he wasn't. Anyone else confirm/dispel this?

ETA: I'm in San Francisco
