I talked to UPS directly today and they have absolutely no idea where my package is. I also talked to Apple, as there are plenty of iPhone 12 Pro available at nearby apple stores, but because I use the iphone upgrade program they won't let me pick up the phone in the store. This is following up nicely on the heels of my lost apple watch series 6 ordered on launch day which has still not arrived. I am cursed.
Never heard of this but tried it out and got this. I’m guessing it’s terrible 😑

Has anybody else had their phone lost by UPS. Mine was to be delivered yesterday it's shown no movement in the last two days. And now it shows no delivery time or date of any kind on the UPS site. I've had to call both UPS and Apple a couple of times and ordered a replacement that won't take place for four days. This is the most upsetting experience I've had with a pre-ordered Apple phone.
As you can see in my reply above I am in the same boat you are. My phone seems to be lost in the UPS system. Apple has put in an order for a replacement that will take place in four days. Good luck on getting your items.
Same issue here except I can’t even order a replacement phone because mine was ordered in the iPhone upgrade program.
the best part is nearby Apple stores have the 12 pro in stock. Lol
I've talked to Apple about my lost phone in the UPS system. They tell me it takes four days to order a replacement. I imagine that's because the current phone could show up yet. If you haven't talked to Apple I would certainly do that at this point. Good luck.
Yes, turn off FindMyPhone on your old phone but also, power down your old one before turning on the 12 Pro to start setup. I found the Verizon support article on activating: https://www.verizon.com/support/knowledge-base-235468/
Wait really lmao apple said we gonna get they asses with this 20watt
Interesting. I have never disabled Find My, iCloud, or iMessage when swapping SIMs/activating new iPhone. Has something changed?
Is this specific to Verizon? I am on AT&T.
With this group....the answer is always going to be "YES order it!" 😂
Yes, I think it's just Verizon. I used to be on ATT and never had to do that. Just switched to Verizon this cycle and learned this the hard way
So frustrating! I hadn't done store pickup in years but this year did it and it was so easy. I think I'm going to do store pickup from now on (or as long as I'm just 4 blocks from an Apple Store) just to avoid all this delivery stress.
Did they actually order you a replacement, or you mean they won’t do that until 4 days have passed since Friday?
Ordered 2 cases from Best Buy and they sent the order twice. I was only charged for one of each. I called and asked how I can ship one back and he basically said I can’t because it only shows I ordered 1 so it would just refund the one I actually paid for.

Lol ya. Trying to do the right thing and give the extras back but no one at the store wants to pickup the phone. It was an online order but it shipped from a store about an hour away so I’m trying to call them and see
usually they just let you keep them, i wouldn't worry about it bud. gift them to someone!`
Which is why I’m not to beat up about it. But the blue does look amazing.
Nice! I like to order 2 of my case so partway through the year I can get he phone looking new again with a fresh one. Although with that Otterbox...you basically have your phone in a vault
