Ill know in about an hour


Nope phone was not there... fake news from Apple telling me it was there and the emails are a glitch in the system.. The apple rep behind the counter said more than likely we should get more on Monday to fill pre orders..but walkins got phones this am....hmmmm :eek::mad: oh well I guess i have to put up with my crappy X this weekend :cool:
 
My original pick up for 2pm which was "delayed" actually ended up updated to ready for pick up for the original time lol..

Nonetheless, that's good news for some of you as I do think that UPS is clearly delivering throughout the day and pick ups are being rescheduled.

As I left the Apple Store at International Plaza in Tampa (11AM), they were unloading one heck of a delivery from UPS. They had police surrounding the van as it was unloaded and it went directly into their back door. Perhaps some of the delayed deliveries.
 
I did manage to snag a 512gb Gold unlocked. But I wanted a 256.

Did trade in my series 3 for a 4. I will cancel the pre order.

Seems to me that pre orders never work for me.
 
My appointment was 2-2:30 and I still have no status update. I won’t do in store pickup again, that’s for sure. At least with the home delivery, UPS tracking would tell me where it’s at. In store pickup has NO INFO at all.

Not the end of the world of course, but definitely a hassle considering the store is not close to my house.
 
Had an appointment for 9 AM - arrived at 8:35 and they took me right away. I had my new Space Grey iPhone Xs in less than 5 minutes :)

Yeah I definitely agree. I checked in with Apple and mine was still sitting in China as of 30 min ago.

Nope, never doing in store pickup again. I thought it was a done deal when I ordered it and chose my pickup window. It definitely isn’t the end of the world, but it’s just really annoying.
 
I got an email saying it’s ready for pickup now lol.

Can’t be bothered to return the 512.

My window was for this morning
 
I’m in the store and the “servers are down”. Globally they say. They can’t sell an iPhone. Dozens of customers here staring at iPhone boxes and can’t leave with them.
[doublepost=1537561205][/doublepost]I was originally a 2pm appt but got the “logistics issue” email. Then got an email at 2:45 that it was ready. Still waiting for apple to get their servers online.

Nice...still hoping for today on my phone also.. At least I got my watch this am !!!
Mass confusion at apple store. “Servers are down” and they can’t sell phones. I’m in upstate NY, but they say it’s global. Been here for almost 90 minutes so far.
 
Had to go in to pick up my wife’s phone and asked about mine, a 6-6:30 pm pickup that was delayed. Was told no idea when I’d get an email that my phone was ready and told me that cancelling my iPhone Upgrade Program preorder would probably pend for too long to finalize and I’d be unable to buy an available model in-store.

I was told the same ..I had a 10am pickup now they said ill be lucky to get my phone by Monday .. Not sure why but that's what i was told from my store ...
 
My order page says “your item will be ready for pick up shortly.” It’s been like that all afternoon.
 
Had the 8AM slot. Basically I got there, there was a line, I talked to an Apple employee and I was pushed to the front of the line (there were a bunch of 8:30 check in people there).

Got to work by 9. Definitely will be doing this again.
 
anyone part of the iPhone upgrade program? Did they make you turn in the old iPhone when you picked up your new one? Just wondering if I can keep the old one for another month since I am paying an extra month to make up for the 12 month contract.
 
Well, no phone and no idea when it’ll come in :-/ the store had no Verizon 64 max Verizon’s and the store employee thankfully pointed out that cancelling my order and trying to get a 256 might mess up my IUP.
