Hi can anybody confirm if the F&F discount for 12pro max has opened as I’ve a mutual friend who has agreed to use his discount option and I’ve already troubled him twice to check if the discount is open 😂 I don’t want to trouble him more. Please post here if the F&F for 12pro max has opened.
Thank you.

I am in exactly the same boat, very inpatient but not wanting to hassle!

Im also waiting for my friend to make the purchase, I think a possible indicator is when they dont have delays for the main market, right now if you try to order pro/pro max it shows there is a 2 weeks wait. whereas Iphone 12 is available for direct collection. its just my guess that maybe once the pro/pro max have enough stock for the stores they will be open for F&F discount

I have just contacted Apple and I have been told that it should still take some weeks for the Pros to appear on the EPP F&F store since they are the most requested models. They said that on average the waiting time for the most demanded models could go from one month to even up to 2 months since their release date.

Thanks for the update. That's what they've always been saying. Last year they said the same thing and 11 Pro Max showed up after a week of the release date. So let's hope this year's the same...

Anyone here use the Blue Light card EPP? It seems like iPhones are only 2% so not sure if it's worth waiting potentially 2 months or not.

Last Year iPhone 11 Pro Max was available in F&F on the same day of Pre Order but at around 2 pm PST and not 5 am PST

The Apple person I spoke to on the phone said to keep checking at Apple.com for when the employee pricing is available for the iPhone 12 Pro Max, anyone know where this would be seen on their site?

Only an Apple Employee can do that. It’s their internal employee login portal.

Does anyone know is there an email or number to contact to ask when an F&F discount will be available.
Nope. When I contacted Apple, they asked me that we as a non-apple employee can't ask them about it

Hey guys! Need your suggestion. I have a friend working in Apple, Cupertino. He is gonna get me 12 Pro max thru F&F. I am residing in India and to my rejoice Apple India has actually launched its official online store here - please read @ -https://www.apple.com/in/newsroom/2020/09/apple-brings-online-store-to-india-september-23/

Can my friend order me 12 Pro max thru this India online store site? If so what would be the final value - like in $ or in INR after the 17% off?

Yes he can order from US. And the discount would be calculated in INR not in USD. He has to go through the Apple india website

Really? My Apple friend once told me that his F&F discount does not work in another country, e.g. in Australia.

Have you or has your friend successfully ordered one via another country's Apple store with 15% F&F discount? If yes, do tell! Appreciate it!
