Hello from Germany! Maybe you are interested how things went here! :-D
Ordering online was a bumpy ride, but I managed to place an order with store pickup on the 17th. Deep Purple 512 GB.
I just looked at the German Apple store and atm ALL of the Pro Max models (every color, every size) switched already to 12th October delivery.
Nearly the same for the Pro models, only the 1 TB versions of Gold and Deep Purple are still available for launch day delivery.
Store pickups are still possible for some cities and sizes/colors on launch day.

On tap at Cheba HutWhat about Grape Kool-Aid?
each one is a separate loan. just start a new IUP
LOL, but in all seriousness, some people just sit there and stare at it waiting for it to magically change, and they don't know they have to refresh it.
Hello! Thank you for stopping by and giving us an update. Good stuff! 🇩🇪
Hahahaha, me too! I didn't dare jump on here until my order was completed
Yes I see all my orders but their system is so overloaded, don't panic, just give it a little while and they should show up. I just spoke to a rep to cancel my 41mm Apple Watch 8 order so I could order the 45mm. She said people are upset because she can't see their orders yet so there is a delay.
I notice that some websites overestimate the taxes before actually purchasing and then it evens out after the total goes through. I wonder if it's just that? Do you know what the percentage is for your tax rate? Then you could calculate it. I bet it's just that.For those of you that did the iPhone 14 Pro Max in 256GB with Apple Upgrade Program, what was your first payment? On my original receipt, it said about $110 in tax and $58 for first month payment, bringing the total to $161.
But then when my payment had issues going through, the Apple associate said it only tried charging my card $88 for taxes and then $58 for the first month's payment.
He updated my payment info to a new card and it seems to have "cleared", but it is now showing initial tax $88 and first payment $58 for a total of $146.
Worried that I am going to get a email in a few hours saying that the payment isn't right again.
Their advice was to call Citizens One, but as soon as I get to someone, it hangs up.
@belindaquek
Did you place your order? Did you get the Launch date delivery? Don't forget to share your tracking from Singapore, please.
"wipes"??? do they have those $30 microfiber cloths again? ohhh I think you meant "wifes" Got it
Two orders, 14P (256/Black/Vzn) for me and 14PM (256/Purple/Vzn) for my wife. Both said Sept 16 at checkout and both now have the dreaded Sept 23 "Postal Service." Postal Service is a disaster here (had a lost package last week) so I finally got through on chat. The agent first gave the "system is too busy to check" that others got but then I was surprised to see: "I understand your point of view here however the volume of pre-orders right now is really loading up the carriers that's why you suddenly have USPS right now." Surprised me to see this chat agent basically saying that it's possible it will ship USPS.
Really hope this is all a glitch and it will go back to UPS/FedEx...

Thanks this is enough of an edge after getting in right away at 7 am cdt and then having this snafu hour later LOL
I've never had a problem with the mail in return (IUP program) but I always take it to UPS.
Certainly did not happen to "anyone using the iPhone Upgrade Program", as it did not happen to me. I had everything saved from the pre-pre-order, and completed my preorder in two taps. I'm sorry that happened to you - did you get launch day?
I’m picking mine up at Apple store next Friday at 8:15 am. If I let them deliver it to my home, I always get it after 3pm. Besides I don’t like to be stuck at home all day waiting.
Didn't happen to me either, got right through, two taps and back to sleep.
I gotta say checking out with the Apple Card is the way to go.
I don’t.
I thought about it as soon as I posted, instead I’ll leave this order and grab something at the store if I see it come up and then cancel this order... I really needed this off day 😜
i did and ended up paying off two phones. i’m still feeling some type of way about it.
My order says “delivers sep 23rd by postal service” I’ve never seen that before and the other iPhone order says it’ll be on launch day with express shipping.
Anyone else have a “postal service” delivery instead of express? They’re going to the same address.

Thanks! So the 24th payment on the old phone will just come out as it's supposed to and then that'll be done, basically? That whole October release date when the 12 came out really messed up that payment schedule, lol
I might have to look that up! Thanks for the tip. I don't know off the top of my head what the Minnesota, US taxes are, but I am sure that is it.
While I guess it's possible that they are actually using USPS or SurePost via UPSP - that wouldn't explain why apparently many orders done in the first couple minutes this morning, which were promised 9/16 delivery at the time of order, all got emails with 9/23 Postal Service delivery dates. Can't imagine Apple would sign a contract for launch day deliveries with whomever that had a built in week long delay and/or randomly allowing some percentage of pre-orders to be delayed a week.
