I just got the same thing, card charged yesterday. Everything still says processing and no tracking on UPS either
ordered a Xs and XS max (me and wife) got charged for the wife XS. (66 bux) Sunday and the XS max (448) monday morning.
Sign up for UPS my choice. You'll probably find your tracking info.
Anyone gotten a email from tmo saying "Your T-Mobile order payment has been processed"? It's a brief summary on my purchase. It's new to me.
Got my “payment has been processed” and says overnight shipping. Still sitting on label created, ready for UPS. Has anyone had any actual movement on their tracking?
Did a cancel and reorder yesterday morning via Messenger for a gold Xs Max (originally Silver) that took almost four hours.. Still showing ship date of 9/21. Curious if I’ll see this thing by Friday. They set it up as free overnite. No charge or tracking on MyChoice yet
We won’t see movement till the phones arrive at T-Mobiles hub in Jeffersonville, IN. They should arrive there today from China. Once they do, they’ll box them up and slap our labels on.
I know some have stated that those quoted ground shipping will automatically be upgraded to next day, but what about those that have shipping labels created already and it says ground shipping on UPS’ website as well?? Probably too late, right??
I ordered a little earlier myself

I think what they meant is that everyone’s phone will be delivered on the same day regardless of shipping method. I remember this happening last year and people were requesting a refund for paying for next day shipping.
JOD for super-well-qualified buyers is $99.99 for the Xs and $109.99 for the Xs Max, 64GB variants.
Here’s a breakdown in a spreadsheet:

UPDATE: Just got my tracking number in the UPS app sometime in the middle of the night. Woot. No update in the T-Mobile app or website, though.
Yes I did

I was told I didn’t have pay anything. But I did to lower monthly payments
The Super Well Qualified is 3 years tenure with Credit Classes A, B or W. Or Class J at any tenure. Class W is the one where you had to do the 12 months on time payments to be well qualified in the first place.
nothing on tmobile and no email but this

Did you have to type a phone number in at all? Could it have auto filled her number? Did you call to make sure they aren’t porting it?

Well that was helpful!! Sent it to the man to decide what we are doing. Thanks!
The verge released the review today
I pre-ordered on 9/14 at 4:00 PM MST for the iPhone XS Max 64GB Gold and Apple Watch Series 4 Space Gray 44mm with both on EIP with a shipping estimate of 9/21. My card was charged yesterday and now today about an hour ago my order showed up on UPS with 2nd Day Air shipping. There is no delivery date on My Choice yet, but I’m confident it will be here on the 21st.
(P.S. It’s nice to see all you folk from the iPhone 7 pre-order thread!)

Initially that’s what T-Mobile reps on Twitter were saying for JOD on Thursday.
But, as reported on TmoNews last year, according to T-Mobile’s announcement, $0 down JOD was actually a promotional offer that was ending in August 2018, right before the release of the Note 9 and new iPhones.
https://www.tmonews.com/2017/08/t-mobile-jump-on-demand-down-payment-base-model-phones-2018/
Note that $0 down still remains available on EIP for qualifying customers.
So, when I showed T-Force that multiple T-Mobile reps were repeatedly saying that $0 JOD was going to be made available for the iPhone Xs, they felt they needed to honor it. Of course, they couldn’t modify the pricing or change up the financing on the fly, so they had charge me as normal, then credit the same amount back towards the account (less the tax).
