So I went thru the pre approval process yesterday and everything went fine. Showed the CC I was currently using and everything. Get on the Apple store app tonight, pre approval pops up, couple of clicks and done. But now when I look at my email confirmation and Apple Store order it shows my Visa debit number and not the CC I’ve been using and went thru the pre approval with. Anyone else run into this? Thoughts as to what will happen next?

Do you have your debit card linked to your iTunes Store/Apple ID ? Cause that’s what they’re gonna use as a primary card. You have change it a checkout and use the card you use for iPhone Upgrade Program.
 
Yup the debit is the primary/default card and that’s what it used. So since debut cards aren’t allowed I’m wondering what’s next.

I guess you only got charged the tax and the first month payment of the new phone and maybe the 12th payment of your current loan (if you had one ) with the debit card. Once you get the new loan number just call Citizens and verify that they have your cc and not your debit for the remaining 11 payments.

Yeah I’ll have to check. They charged the debit the sales tax and remaining one payment from the X I have. Have to get online and check and then probably call them
 
The debit will be charged for the sales tax and CC charged for installments. You had to provide a CC not debit when signing up with IUP
 
Ah well then everything may be ok. Should be the same CC I provided last year.
 
I pre ordered last night using the upgrade pre order, I want to change the color and size I bought. Can I just cancel the order and reorder using the upgrade? Apple's phones/chat is of no help right now.

Yes, you should be able to but be warned that you may lose your spot and depending on your model/color/size, it may not be available for 9/21/18. Check it out before you actually decide to cancel and re-order.
