Apple was late in opening. Ordered Black Max 512 at 3:02, arriving on the 21st. Whats this $30 upgrade fee?
I saw this too and was wondering about it as well. I'm on the IUP and I didn't pay a fee the last couple of years. I figured this was one of the benefits of not going through the carrier.

I still haven't gotten my confirmation and I ordered through iPhone Upgrade and did the pre-approved the other day. Was easy ordering. Except no confirmation still...

Yea, saw this too. Going to have to call Apple or AT&T in the morning.

Ordered two 256 gold maxes and a gold watch via the App. Got my confirmation emails quickly. Now time to obsessively wait to see when my card's charged. Got 9/21 on all orders.

It seems like sim free was the best option for the Max at least. I ordered a sg 256gb T-Mobile Xs Max as soon as the store opened and got a 9/28-10/05 delivery window. Sim free is still 9/21 delivery. Last year too though I got a week later delivery date but received it on launch day.

Well I fell asleep and woke up at 12:06 in a panic. Rushed onto the app and (after forgetting my account pin and having to do a bit of digging for it) I got my email confirmation at 12:14. Space Grey 256gb XS max to be delivered on 9/21!!

and now back to sleep.

Everyone has their hand out these days. Who's your carrier? I've had good luck getting AT&T to waive the fee... this year, I went SIM-free to save the hassle. First time SIM-free was available on launch day in the US.

Was finished with my purchase on the phone app before the website ever opened up. Gold XS 512GB, delivery on 9/21. I'm so excited! My very first non-black/gray iPhone!

I already bought a cool case that has Mulan on the back (yes, I'm a Disney freak, annual passes and all) and part of it is clear so the gold will show through.

Yup, IUP preapprived, Store app up at 3:02a, got the order through at 3:04a. Went back in, got my watch through at 3:10a along with some cases for the phone. Watch conf. email was instant, IUP email JUST came at 3:28a.

I was waiting up anxiously for it but it confirms my 9/21 delivery date. Now I need to see if I can sleep after that anxiety attack...
