Carrier T-Mobile iPhone X/8 Pre-Order and Dispatch Thread

[eric3312]

I'm a little late to the party here. I'm preordering for my wife who wants to ditch her old phone.

What's the best way to ensure a launch day delivery?

So, my brother and I got off the phone about an hour or so ago with a supervisor from T-Mobile. He told us that we are able to use Jump through the app (not just by calling in). He also mentioned to sign the EIP agreement ASAP when we received it through our email. How quickly you sign the agreement determines when you receive the phone, so be quick to fill it out!

Just wanted to give everyone a heads up Good luck guys!

Yeah I remember getting that agreement like 2 hours after I pre ordered my phone last year

Does anyone have an idea of the best number to call? They all seem to lead to a weird robo answer portion in the beginning and I want to make sure I waste as little time as possible. (P.S. can't dial 611 because I am a super new customer and don't have an activated SIM yet)

Here is the document I was talking about earlier in order to qualify for the $0 down.
I’m assuming it’s going to be different for a lot of people. Hopefully all of us get what we want!

Same question. What's the number for sales?

i think the number is on tmobile’s site

I plan to buy Iphone X from Apple Store. Can I still get insurance from T-mobile?

Yes, I discussed this with a TMO rep yesterday. A store manager will check the device's condition before enrolling.

First time ordering a new iPhone under a T-Mobile plan. I favorited the T-Mobile phone I want on the Apple Store iOS app. Paying upfront. Will I have to input my T-Mobile details like I did with Sprint in years past?

 

[vega07]

after ordering tonight, when do we have to go into the store to trade in our old devices?

also for some reason, they can't detect my eligibility for trade in online. does that mean I have to call in?

Wait until you receive your iPhone. More often than not, T-Mobile includes a package for you to send your phone back to them. Optionally you can do it in-store I think.

Does anyone know the price down on JOD?

 

[jercompton]

Is everyone gonna call 611 or you guys have another number you’ll be using?

 

[2SwiFt29]

Is there a specific link to the x?

Good info. Called and asked how much the down payment would be on the base model Note 8 and was told $0, so I’m assuming the 64 GB X should be the same. Makes my decision on where to buy that much easier.

Can I buy a Verizon phone via the Apple Store App, pay full price, and not have to have a Verizon account?

I just don't wanna go through the heartache of ordering through T-Mobile and get my phone after Christmas or something.

When I got my 7 and 6S I bought a Verizon phone outright at the store and they didn't need me to be a Verizon customer.

Unfortunately no. In years past, the Verizon option requires you to verify with a Verizon account before you can order.

Less than 30 minutes...

Even when buying outright? I never had to in-store

That's been my experience ordering a Verizon iPhone 6s on Apple.com, yes. It required me to enter my Verizon account, even though I was paying up front. Could have changed since then, but I doubt it

crap, that totally ruins me if so. the Verizon phone's the most versatile too, easier to resell cuz it works on every network

 

[effort]

Already on the phone with a rep, she told me I'm a little early and is going to call me back in exactly 10 minutes. I doubt it but let's see what happens.

Also refreshing the App Store.

 

[jercompton]

Good luck to everyone!
