Good morning! I just caught up on the pages here. Checked my choice… no tracking for me yet. I know I’ll get mine Friday but I’m hoping I can pick it up early that day because I need to go into t-mobile and get a new sim.
I was with sprint, went in recently to get a T-Mobile sim, all good. I still have to migrate to T-Mobile plan and asked if I could put my sim from my 12pm into the 13pm when it comes.. nope, it doesn’t work like that. So.. a trip to the store will be needed.
Question, can/should I do the setup to move everything else to the 13 before going in to attach it to t-mobile?
Ah, another Sprint person. IPhone 13's do not require SIM's and I am going to TNX (staying on Sprint's Billing keep my plan on Sprint but activating my new iPhone on the T-mobile network loading an eSIM online.) I am doing mine at home sweet home...after a Phone to phone lighting transfer...

Update: The “Shipped” status will

For tracking, everyone should be routed to UPS. See you people in China 🇨🇳!!!

Better check...many UPS areas have stopped doing this. Mine did. And to hold is no longer free and the only options are UPS stores or stores where UPS stops. Customer Centers are no longer listed.

Your area may be different, but I would double-check.
Same with me. For the past 9 months or so, I haven’t been able to select a Customer Center for any UPS delivery even with an upgraded MyChoice account.

If you got this message, what does it mean? Are they sending a SIM-free device instead that can go to any carrier technically?

"We're unable to contact your carrier to verify your account, but we can still proceed with your order. However, this iPhone will not be connected to a carrier plan. You can connect to a carrier on your own later."

I got it on 2 of my lines on T-Mobile and went through with it anyway. Just curious if it's still technically locked to T-Mobile because I'm thinking of maybe switching carriers.
If you paid in full, the phones will not be locked and you can easily connect to T-Mobile via eSIM or use a physical card.
