when trying to connect to PayBright to make the payment for my delivery order...
 
Just placed my order for a black iPhone 14 Pro Max 1 TB on launch day for delivery next Friday unless something goes wrong with delivery.
I’ve ordered a Spigen case from Amazon.

Got in my order for two Space Black 256GB 14 Pro Max by 8:15 because of some lags and hiccups on the app.
Expected delivery Sept 27-Oct 4.

Can't believe I missed launch day delivery so fast! Any chance of it being bumped up?
 
Mine doesn't even try to load paybright anymore. Just get an Apple something went wrong page. Cool.
 
Paybright is a mess. Not sure I will manage to get through before my order is cancelled.

I placed my order within a minute of it opening up and the arrival is Monday the 19th instead of Friday the 16th. Probably depends on your location. Your delivery time could improve.
 
Hmm kinda having regrets choosing deep purple, too feminine? Anyone have experience switching colour of a preorder?
I reserved deep purple as well for pick up. Throw a case on it and you won't see the colour. I've been buying white/silver for the longest time.
 
Anyone else’s order disappear from their account? I can still look up by order number and login through that page to see details but it’s gone from my orders screen….as for PayBright, it was an absolute nightmare to use last year, but I believe Apple made good on most orders. Thankful I didn’t bother this year.
 
Wow that was more stressful than in previous years!

Had the app on my iPhone and iPad and the site open on my MacBook and Windows PC and none were up by 8:10am.

When I finally got the app to work on my iPhone I got an error and had to start over again and try Apple Pay.

Thankfully I got the 256GB Pro Max in deep purple for 09/16!

paybright order will probably get cancelled, good thing i bought one outright. i'm guessing the secondary market will have these phones at a premium given the delivery dates being pushed back

I have noticed this for the last year or so for any Apple pre order. They show up properly soon after

Maybe. I live in the Greater Toronto Area. I'm not used to having to wait for anything. When I order from Amazon, items arrive almost before I finish checking out! 😂

Holy. All reservations for pick up are done. All greyed out for the GTA.
Maybe just for your model/storage/colour combo? I just checked a Max a few minutes ago and it was still available downtown Toronto for Sept. 16 pickup. (Home delivery said Oct. 4-12.)

I won't be ordering until Oct. 12 anyway though, since my credit card doesn't get free mobile device insurance until then.

BTW, PSA: My understanding is most credit card issuers with this insurance don't cover paybright purchases.
