Still no tracking on my poor 512 :(
did you register your phone number when checking out? you can track by your phone number on the UPS website and get tracking info prior to a tracking number.

I have a question. If I did the IUP for my iPhone X and paid sales tax for the full price of the phone. Do they refund me half that? Since technically I am sending it back after 12 payments? For example. If the phone was $1000. And you get charged $100 sales tax up front from that $1000 purchase. But you give them the phone after $500 worth of payments. Do you get a refund for the other part of the sales tax not used?

Not that I've seen, this will be my 3rd year on the iUP program and I've had to pay full sales tax each time.

I think it has to do with the amount I paid. I ordered the Max and paid in full. $1.6K and they wanna make sure it's actually delivered to you.. Makes no sense, it's safer for it to be held and for you to personally pick it up. ugh
Weird. I paid mine in full and was able to place a hold. Doesn't make any sense to me either.

So I did some research, apparently when you can't have your package held at a CC is because the shipper has placed a restriction on your package, in this case Apple. Why would Apple put a restriction on my package whyyyyyyyy :mad::mad::mad:
It’s probably because Apple doesn’t want you to be able to pick it up before the 21st.

Really? So maybe that’s not it. Will have to give them a call to figure out what’s happening.
Yea definitely give them a call. In my location, it's not grayed out.

My usual ups cc is showing up, but only the ups-lockers available on sight, not the actual ups cc, at least when trying to place it on hold for my watch or phone. Strangely enough, it shows up fine on other parts of the website, just not when diverting the package

Same thing here. Annoying not knowing what’s happening.
