iPhone upgrade program . Correct credit card info in the app when I upgraded but realized after the order it had an old billing to address. Will this effect the order?
 
Yep, Verizon was on point. Got my pick. Shipping 9/16. Now the next nail-biting phase begins. Waiting for the UPS or FedEx truck lol. It was weird though. As I always do for Iphone pre-order day, I had my phone, ipad and laptop all fired up and ready to go. The count down clock on the laptop was almost a full minute earlier than the phone and ipad, but the cart on the laptop never went through. Pays to have back-up devices :).
 
Wow the silver sold really fast where I am... only the 1TB silver is left for in store pickup 16 Sep. All the other silvers are unavailable for in store pickup at all for now. Most of the other 3 colours still have in store pickup 16 Sep available.
 
Store didn't go live until 0805. I was sweating. Finally it went up. Took me 45 seconds to order. Fastest eveah! Pro Max 256 Deep Purple. Oh, yeah. Now the wait begins.

Haven’t gotten anything yet… gotta wait until it’s delivered for that
 
That sucked logged in as soon as the window opened. Selected store and time. Kept failing no matter what time I picked. Tried different store same thing. Then I get an error saying to call or wait for email.
I checked email, and it said it’s gonna be mailed at the end of the month. WTF Apple. I didn’t even choose that as an option and it’s delayed by two+ weeks
 
Kept trying to place my order in the Apple Store app, but it kept erroring out. Then I checked my email, and the order had gone through. I had select in-store pickup for 9/16, but my order says delivers to my house 9/28-10/3. Never even finished checkout in the app, where I could select a pickup time.
 
I ordered from ATT, then decided I’d rather get from Apple - got the deep purple 128 pro (I still have 90+ gigs available on my 128 mini) for delivery on the 16th. I NEVER get a color (except my pink 13 mini because I want to save it for my granddaughter), but it’s so pretty I couldn’t resist.

REALLY toyed with the pro max for pickup on the 16th, but I think it would be overkill coming from my mini. I had the pro before and it already seems a lot bigger to me after using the mini. Maybe next year.

Cancelled ATT order - just wasn’t sure if I was gonna have a bunch of trouble with the e-sim since I was upgrading on a different line than I was gonna use the phone on.
 
I would say I'm now old and slow but thats only partially true.... the Apple Store App hung up at the very end and kept giving me errors so I switched to my computer, I got to the end of checkout and took too long to review the screen, I thought the Pick Up/ Delivery screen was a little confusing and wanted to make sure I had the right store selected and pick up was my option, I wanted to pick it up as it was available on the 16th and delivery was Oct 3; however, by the time I figured out that I had everything selected right, all the pickup options were gone!

I was definitely frustrated but not like I would have been back in 2010 - 2018, upgrading my phone is just not that big of deal to me anymore... In fact, I almost decided just to keep my iPhone 12 once I wasn't part of launch day pickup but I ordered it anyway.

OH... the other thing was I couldn't complete check out because it told me I had to pay my Verizon Phone balance off to upgrade.... a whopping $14 that probably caused me to lose my place for the 16th after I logged into Verizon and paid off my device.
 
Got in 10 mins early via ATT and was all checked out before the launch time. Then went in to order a 2nd phone and the ATT servers went down for about 10 mins. So ended up getting 2 and should be delivered on 9/16. We shall see.

Ordered 3 Pros. 2 via web 1 via app. I only got 1 confirmation email so far, but I do have 3 order numbers. So I can only assume they all went through. In store pickup showed available and after selecting the time I then got a delivery only option. All 3 say 9/16.
 
Had it I. Saved items. But the order process and everything took 3 minutes. 256 Pro Max Purple for 9/23. Not sure why I slipped a week.
Mine also slipped a week to 9/23. I ordered the 512 Purple Pro Max.

Maybe delivery location?

Also, love your profile pic. Miss the ol’ touchID process.
 
Quick checkout process via the app. Picking up my Deep Purple Pro 256GB on the 16th.
 
Placed order at 7:02 on iPad Apple Store App. 14 Pro 128GB Space Black. Delivery on or by Sept. 16th.

Been trying the app for the last hour. Had all financing pre-approved. Just throws errors every time and delivery has already slipped well into October. I'm not sure my current phone is going to live that long :(

I’ll live vicariously through y’all. Purple 256GB Pro all the way*

(*If I had a penchant to drop a cool thou’ whenever just for fun 🙃) maybe an Apple store visit to play with them and buy in store a few months from now 🫠
 
Got mine ordered about around 8:05, Apple Store App, after much fighting, finally opened.

Deep Purple iPhone 14 Pro Max 128GB, on iPhone Upgrade Program.

Was trying to do an In-Store Pickup, but like many, it switched it after the order was placed to home delivery. But in the end, it is a 9/16 delivery, so I am fine with that, and now I get to have the fun (if not stressful) journey of tracking the shipments. Yay!
