Just got the charge on my card, guess having the wrong address number wasn't an issue

If the street number is wrong call Apple. They’ll send a note to UPS and when it gets to the local station they’ll fix it.

Just got charged on my card, guess having the wrong address number wasn't an issue, first problem solved, not waiting to get a tracking number and call UPS.

Also, for people interested, placed my order 12:25am PST by phone for a X 64gb space gray.

Check your charged amount folks. I see they charged me 24.99 for overnight shipping when it should be zero. I am going to get that credited back after I receive. Not going to get into it now and risk them screwing up the order.

Update - took a closer look. Shipping charge may be just a cosmetic issue on the order history. Even with the alleged shipping charge, my total payments still come out to 1149.99 so guess it's ok. Still plan to confirm after I receive though. And yes I hate CA tax.

Just spoke to T-Mobile. If your card got declined or anything you have 5 days before they cancel your order if you don’t pay. Running mean the order is about to ship. So I’m good since I updated my information

Those of us with 11/3 delivery from T-Mobile may start seeing "Ready for UPS" notifications by tomorrow evening. Here's the timeline from an iPhone 8 pre-order I did on my other line last month...

Noticed full phone cost now shows as "pending" in my credit card a/c. Posted today. My TMob a/c shows shipping by 12/2-12/03 now -- before it was "unknown." Order was placed Fri @ 3:45 eastern.

Question -- if it ships on 12/3 does TMob pay for weekend delivery? If not can it be p/u at station on Sat or is it restricted to Monday delivery only? Tad painful knowing my phone is miles away but I can't retrieve it. Ha.

Damn, 2.40 LBS?
[doublepost=1509292000][/doublepost]All, I have a question:

View attachment 728830

Is this for an iPhone? Anyone else getting WORLD EASE as a product ident? I checked, and the weight of 0.40KG (0.88 LBS) seems to be reasonable:

I haven't ordered anything else apart from the iPhone X from the Apple Store. Any thoughts?

World Ease is UPS's "budget" international air service for big shipments. So instead of shipping as individual units it goes as one big self contained pallet. When the pallet passes customs it's broken up into individual units and sorted for normal delivery. It has a longer delivery time vs the normal "next day" for international air -- but irrelevant to us since delivery isn't suppose to occur until Friday anyway.

Brilliant! Seems like it is my iPhone, after all! Thanks for clarifying!

Ordered about 12:22AM - 256 GB Silver. Order status going back and forth to don't know and 11/2-3 ship date. Got a fraud alert today from my cc 5:50AM. Got a Tmobile text at 8AM. Called TMobile at 8:30AM and got immediate answer and cleared charge. Confirmed with the rep this means preparing for shipping and overnight delivery

My brother and I had the same issue with a fraud alert on his card at about 8am. Apparently my iPhone 10 went through for the charge, but the bank instantly declined his and it was put on partial preorder. He corrected it by calling in to his bank, and then back to T-Mobile after. They said they would push another automatic charge to his card, and it would take about 24 hours.

Do you know if my brother will still get his shipped out at the same time as mine, even though there will be a delay on payment for his phone?

Nope, haven’t seen anything. Since other people’s estimated ship dates seem to be right im still happy knowing we will probably have ours in a week or two.

If the dates prove too be correct it will be a much better situation than last years iphone 7 pre-order disaster.

The earliest they will ship out is on 11/2 although the bulk shipment from China is leaving now. You should be ok, but may want to call back and confirm. The agent that I spoke with re-charged and confirmed as I was talking to him.

CANT BE THEM HERE IS MY REASONS
1.)I DIDNT APPLY FOR A CARD.
2.)I DIDN'T ASK FOR A NEW ONE
3.)NONE OF MY CHASE CARDS ARE EXPIRED FOR THEM TO SEND ME A NEW ONE
4.)THEY DONT SHIP CARDS OUT OF Louisville, KY:p:p:p:apple::apple::apple::apple::apple::apple::apple::apple::apple:
