If I preorder the iphone....since I wont be home on the 19th, will they deliver it to my office or just our home address? Every other yr Ive waited in line.
If it's a contract phone, it will be delivered to the account holders address. If not, they will deliver to whatever delivery address you give them. I would check with your employer to make sure it's okay first, some places may not allow personal deliveries.
When i bought my iPhone 5 to be delivered on launch day i had it delivered to work. I was actually off but out all day so reception at work signed for it then emailed me to say it had arrived and i called in to get it when passing later in the day. Worked a treat!
What is your carrier? With AT&T in previous years I have updated my billing address to be my work address on my AT&T account. You still may have a chance to do that if you update it now.
With AT&T it can be tricky to have the phone shipped to an address other than the account billing address. Sometimes Apple is more willing to ship to an alternate address, but they might not always allow it. And it can depend on payment method used whether an exception can be made.
My AT&T iPhones ordered via Apple.com always have to be shipped to the billing address on the AT&T account. I just call Apple a few hours later and ask them to change the shipping address.
