I really wish they would let you choose what you want. I absolutely don’t want or need Apple Arcade and that comes with every version. Meanwhile I would really like Apple news and that only comes with the $30 a month version, most of which I won’t use.

Where is costco deal listed? Can you still submit for the $200 loyalty rebate through tmobile
I think the only way you can get $200 loyalty rebate is by doing a trade in and an EIP for 30 months with T Mobile.
Otherwise, it's $150 rebate for trading in thru Apple.

So... while I preordered on the 16th, supposed to be deliver on the 23th (never left the T-Mobile warehouse), but last wednesday, the rep filed a claim to investigate where is the device... today they had to cancel the phone and file it as "never received"... so Had to do a replacement... I hope they don't F up the order.

Also, One of my existing line that I upgraded to the 12 (different device)... the promotion switched from P16 (promo for exisiting customers; monthyl credit of $10) to P15 (to new customers; monthly credit of $16.67)... so I don't know what's going on with these lines i upgraded to the 12... I think it's going be a nightmare trying to correct this...

Should ask them to put you on priority list. The wait time for the Pro is long (new order looking at End-November ship day).

Are iPhone 12 Pro with T Mobile SIM unlocked out of the box / immediately if paid for in full?

I am thinking of selling it because I have a second identical phone under the trade in program that I am considering....

Saw a PB 128GB in stock at a local apple store (still waiting on T-Mobile day 1 preorder) so I decided to grab it. Picking it up in a few hours. Let’s see what T-Mobile will do when I bring it in store to activate with my trade-in.

How do I transfer my numbers to Tmobile when the new phones arrive? I am making the switch to TMobile from ATT and ordered two iPhones for our family. I received a notification that the phones are preparing to ship. However, I was assigned two telephone numbers, one for each line. Is the number switch something that I can address at the time of receiving the new phones or is this something that I can address prior to that? Does this involve a telephone call to TMobile? I appreciate any thoughts or advice...

Many thanks

Yeah, I said the same thing. Lol. Hopefully to get an update this week, made this order about two weeks ago. I think T-Mobile is still going through pre-orders.

I can confirm the last sentence. Mine was a pre order early in the day (ordered around 9am central) and I just got charged. Haven’t got shipping information yet.

Same boat. The guy I talked to said to call 1-877-207-8009 to initiate the number transfer. I haven’t actually done this yet since I haven’t gotten my phone, so I have no idea what the process looks like after that.

I ordered mine 10/16 at 8am eastern and as of 7:00am yesterday 10/31 it was still Backordered. So I cancelled and bought one at apple. Looks like they still haven’t got to most of the day 1 preorders yet (at least Pacific Blue)

I wish this could be done ala carte. I'd like Apple Music, Apple TV+, News+ and 200GB of iCloud storage. That option is not available.

Anyone in the Estimated to ship 11/17/2020 - 12/01/2020 bracket? This was through a regular order & not pre-order

Me! ✋ Ordered on 10/25/20 for iPhone 12 Pro 128GB Pacific Blue. Got sucked into the Tmobile $500 credit promo. Hoping the deliveries start to ramp up here and we get phones sooner rather than later from cancellations, increased phone production, etc.

Any T-Mobile employees in the house that can give me an idea of how inventory is holding up? I want a 12 Mini but I dunno if I should pre-order it in-store or just show up on release day instead?

Well happy to report I finally got my 256gb Pac Blue iPhone 12 Pro that I ordered on launch day. Does anyone know when you trade in your old iPhone through the mail if you need to include the charging cable and power adapter?

Been crunching the numbers and came up with this:


Costco is the best bet right? I don't want to get stuck with 30 months worth of device credits again. (I did 36 months on my XS — which i'd have to pay off in order for any of the above scenarios to work). I want the discount/rebate now so I have more flexibility next year or the year after.

The APPLE scenario includes their $150 extra credit. But their phones cost more and their trade in value is less.

I still want to see the Mini in person before making any moves. I imagine once the Mini and Pro Max launch, they will extend the promo for all new 4 phones.
Am I missing anything (besides tax)?

So very jealous of those of you that get the same trade-in value across multiple retailers, I’d much rather deal with Apple than T-Mobile.
