Really hope you are correct. For the past 4 pre-orders, I have never had an iPhone package picked up before Thursday, or any upgraded in UPS from Ground to next day.
Only thing I can think would help is if, they process them ALL as overnight and reissue labels for each that currently says ground.
Right, I get that and I hope that is what happens. But it’s weird that a whole lot of people who ordered that phone, later that I did, seem to have tracking info.
Phones will get turned over to UPS soon and put on planes for Friday delivery.
Lets have faith that they will correct their mistake.. wait for origin scan then we’ll either celebrate or stress over it
Man most of the excitement honestly is here hanging out with you guys! Haha this is great! I’ve been doing for the past 4 plus years I think. It’s great! Haha
Better hope your boss doesn't see this! lol
So the new gold is the same gold as the 8 and 8 plus, which looks pink. Glad I went for SG.

@tstathakis are you Greek?
JoD isn't an option for the XS line ? T-Mobile still requires a massive down payment. $279 for the XS and $379 for the XS Max.
I've been with T-Mobile 4 years now, perfect payment history and credit score of 761. And they still say every new phone requires a down payment like this. Doesn't matter who you are, best #1 credit doesn't matter.
But I can get a Note 9 for zero down on Jump plan.
So is this Apple's doing ?
ATT and Verizon and Xfinity attracting new customers, saying no down payment needed for the new iPhone's

Not going to happeen. Just Wait untill UPS takes them and moves them around.
I was charged late Monday and my status still says "ships by 9/21." I have group shipping. This will be my third year pre-ordering, I know by now TMO is usually sloppy with communication as far as when we will get the device.. but I always get mine on launch day, so I'm expecting to see mine on Friday. Even if I don't have a tracking number yet.
Tmobile customer for 2.5 years, credit score 830+, completed 5 EIP plans. I see $99 down for Max and $0 down for Xs in the 64 GB configuration when logged into TMobile Store right now.
Based on experience, origin scans usually come tonight. All shipping tiers, despite the labels, usually make it on Friday. Even if you have ground and don’t get it Friday for whatever reason, then you’ll get it Monday. They still transport those packages on weekends, they just don’t deliver ground until the next business day.
For what it’s worth, I get ground shipments from UPS in Kentucky often and they mostly come within a day. I’m a few states away on the east coast.

We can take pics... just can’t power them on due to contractual obligations. These are getting locked up until Friday AM! Perk of being the store manager. ;-)

Completely different gold (not to mention material), unless you’re referencing the almost cream gold back and glass. It’s much less ostentatious than I feared, to be honest.
This seems to have changed. We got one XS Max on EIP for $99 down and $1,000 financed, and one XS Max on JOD for $109 down.
If you're a store manager tell us what you know about shipping.
