I said it yesterday and I'll say it again... I don't think a single Jet Black phone will ship in the month of September for T-Mobile customers (those who ordered direct to T-Mobile, not those who ordered from Apple).
 
The wait is finally over. It's been real!

It's not their fault that they're not getting stock but it is their fault that they're not being transparent and they just throw dates at us as if they are 100% on them. At Least with Apple, I can check from factory to my door where this phone is.
You have some good points there! LOL. I'm pissed too. I just think Apple should have waited a week or two for actual launch day. Don't they typically have two weeks in between pre-ordering and actual launch day, and this year it was one? Probably to capitalize on exploding Samsungs. But a bad bad bad bad bad move on their part. They should have at least warned customers pre-ordering of severely limited stock of pluses, matte blacks, and jet blacks.

I have no idea what's it's called. Pst or something lmfao
I forgot I started to write something earlier then changed my mind, oops. I lived there for a few months when I was younger. It was really strange when the time changed because the rest of my family was in mountain time, so half of the time they were different and the other half they weren't. Really messed with head

Unfortunately, I've been down this road too and it proved to be the biggest time-waster and source of frustration imaginable.

Remember last year's T-Mo promo where you traded in a phone and got a credit each month? Well they listed the right IMEI number, but the model number was incorrect. I was assured in a 30-min follow-up phone call that only the IMEI number mattered and all would be ok. Glad I took pictures of my device before sending it in, because Assurant solutions rejected it. It then took me 5 months, hours of phone calls, and numerous emails to get that one resolved and get the monthly promo credits that were promised.

This may sound like an exaggeration, but between last year's launch and this year's launch, I know I have had to invest at least 20-25 hours of my time just to get things squared away. And I'm not abnormal...I don't call for no reason to check on my order status or any of that crap. I simply place an order for phones, I make sure they call back the info to me to ensure they input it correctly, and then somehow T-Mobile just screws it all up.

The next thing I'm doing is getting an app that lets me record phone calls and I'm going to record every single call I ever have with any CSR from any company from this day forward. I'm sick and tired of them telling me one thing only to discover something else later. Happens all the time and not just with T-Mobile.

Hey, I really do appreciate your feedback on the IMEI number (don't want to sound ungrateful). It's just that I was royally screwed over this last year and I'm not going through that butt pain again.

I totally understand.
 
You know what they say... Save the best for last! Lol I personally didn't want the Jet Black because of all the micro scratches and smudges it could get. You could have a case I guess.. but I'm sure eventually it would end up with scratches.

The feels when you get a UPS shipping notification for something else you ordered but forgot about. Thinking it's the iPhone, but instead some random Amazon purchase.

All those accessories you bought for your phone?
