That’s just not how it works. You even need to buy it through EPP again, when you want to change it (e.g. when it came out of the box broken).
Does anyone know when does the quota for F&F discounts get refreshed? Is it per calendar year or something else?
Other have said it before, but for me it didn’t happen yet. What is the difference now?
I followed this thread for 2 weeks and I was really excited when you wrote the f&f is active. Really, thank you! I messaged my friend who ignored me for 2 days and on the third day we ordered together at night my iPhone 15 Pro Max 256GB in Natural titanium. And now I have to wait for a month 😭🤯. I hope Apple will reduce the wait time and I receive a flawless model. Good luck everyone 🤗
If you live near an Apple Store, the trick is to order for pick-up. The stores get a a bit of new stock every day and if you check every morning and you’re lucky you can get a pick-up for the same or the next day. Worked for me.
Thank you for the idea, but there are no native Apple Stores only distributors. Shipping is the only way to get directly from Apple.
Seeking clarification : Can someone please tell me what the discount is in the US?
I thought it was 15% for F&F and 25% for Employees. I normally just do the 15% F&F because my friend has multiple of those whereas the 25% is strictly for employees only and only available for 1 phone per year.
My friend just told me that he does not have 15% discounts until Jan 1, but he does have 10% in-store discounts. Have the discounts changed from years past?

15% for F&F is correct.
You’re allotted a specific amount of F&F discounts per calendar year, so it’s possible your friend used all of their F&F discounts for this year already. If that’s the case, it will renew again on January 1st.
10% in-store discounts live separately from the other discounts that need to be purchased via the EPP online store.
Ah I see. So he likely has used up his 15% for the year and can only offer the 10% for this year.
hey guys
does anyone know when will the Middle East will get the EPP? (I'm in Israel and I have been waiting for the last month or so to get the phone and no update yet..😭)

Why annoy friends asking for discount? Go work for Apple if you want the benefit.
(unless a true Family or Friend offers without you asking them.)
Get's annoying really fast to be constantly hit up for discounts. Especially 'friends' who magically appear when they need something.

Now you need double luck... someone to give you the discount, AND be willing to check every morning until one's available
Nonsense. If a friend or family member works for Apple, ask. They only get a certain number every year so it's not like they're going to have to spend 100 hours doing it over the course of the year. And of course, the answer could be "Sorry, no, all out this year."Why annoy friends asking for discount? Go work for Apple if you want the benefit.

People ask me for favors related to my work all the time, it's just "Being a member of polite society" IMO.
But not on here. Find an actual FRIEND that works for Apple; asking a random stranger over the Internet "Hey could you put forth this effort just so I can save 15%?" - Nah.
