I'M PISSED! I just found out that mine isn't shipping until tomorrow. The rep said with T-Mobile this year they are not shipping them early! I said BS, I'm in a forum with people that are already tracking their orders. He said I only got 2-day shipping, but I was never even given an option - like every other year that I have done this and I've ALWAYS got it on release day - otherwise I wouldn't wake up in the middle of the night to order it. I'm waiting to talk to a manager now.
Sounds like my frustration when the 12 Pro was launched.

There should have been an option to get overnight delivery for an extra cost (depending on where you live - urban vs rural).

But Apple will never release a phone earlier than launch day for sure.
 
Gotcha. Yeah, that's where I'm checking. Still no movement. I'm hoping that since it's iPhone Day they're just loading on extra trucks and instead of being later on the route I'll be earlier on a new route. A fella can dream!

mine is now showing loaded to vehicle and out for delivery. with my past experiences i’ll be getting it around 4-5pm

That seems to be around when I get it too. How late is T-Mobile support open these days? I want to be able to activate it when it arrives.

I finally got a tracking number, but it's not going be here today :( But hey - it's 2020, so this is not unusual. I guess waiting one day isn't the end of the world... just a bit frustrating since I ordered as soon as the preorder started and I've done this EVERY year and ALWAYS had it on launch day. Enjoy your new phones today.

We decided to do the trade in route, however, we are having 2nd thoughts about it. More than likely we are going to upgrading to the 13 Pro Max next year if it comes with increased battery life. My question is if we pay off early do we get reimbursed for the rest of the bill credits?

I’m thinking about canceling the trade in and selling the phone on my company’s website and I can use that money plus the large down payment to pay it off.

If you pay it off early You'll keep the bill credits
 
My phone is finally out for delivery! But for some reason UPS My Choice isn't showing it so I can't obsessively track the truck on the map.:(

Its been nearly 5 hours since my phones left Newark, NJ and have not been scanned in anywhere yet. Still says 11/13 but I doubt it at this point...
 
Awesome, Got it. Then we will continue with our trade in then. My sister told me that we would lose our bill credits.
Our phones are out for delivery 🚛 📦. Just patiently waiting now.
I mean you'll still have to pay off the phone. So if you owed for math sake $500, youd have to pay off the whole $500 but you'll still get the bill credits for the next 12 months or whatever you have left. So you have to lay out the money ahead of time but technically aren't losing anything...

How do you know its out for delivery if you cant see it on UPS?
I can see it on UPS. But UPS My Choice has an Inbound section which shows packages being delivered to you at your address. The package is not showing up there so I won't be able to track the truck stop by stop on the map. Unless there's some way to add it I'm not aware of.

Yeah, we plan of paying the rest of the phone off when our tax refund comes in early next year.

Glad you’re being patient I’m sitting here refreshing the Follow My Delivery map like crazy. I should probably get some work done while I wait... lol
