My iPhone 13 Pro Max is now in the UPS system for 9/24 delivery!

Well folks I'm off to bed soon. Today was a very long day. Probably the longest out of this whole weekend. It feels like we have been waiting for this iPhone 13 forever. I was really hoping we would see our scans. Due to not being able to see any scans a little desperation was setting in. I'm hoping we get to see movements tomorrow.

Two good things happened today. 1st majority of us received our tracking #'s. That alone is a huge relief. Second, people were reporting their Apple card was being charged and they no longer were seeing the pending transaction.

Some people believe we have a delay in scanning. That could be true however, last year for the iPhone 12 pre-order on Sunday we were experiencing lots of activities via UPS scans. Our iPhone 12 made it to Alaska by Monday and then we didn't see any activity by Wednesday evening/Thursday. (This seems to not be the case this year).

I strongly believe we are still stuck in China. UPS may be waiting for all the pallets to show up from Zhengzhou, China so they can all ship it out all at once. It's a high possibility all of us might be traveling together. Tomorrow is another day. I'm expecting lots of scans to hit. There are only 3+ days left (China time). We should be expecting the departure scans back to back. I'm also expecting flight for Cargolux to show up.

Finally, rest assured! All the tracking information will be revealed to us on Thursday night (PST time). Once Apple lifts the restrictions from UPS and sends out a notification to us that our iPhone is arriving on Friday. We will be able to see all the internal scans. We will find out the truth and know exactly what happened on Sunday.

Have a wonderful night and I will see you guys tomorrow with "DEPARTURE SCANS". Sweet dreams!

LX-VCD is airborne out of Luxembourg. It’s heading eastbound for now. Time will tell if it is actually going to CGO. Based on the schedule posted earlier, it’s really delayed or they did a tail swap.

Good morning all! back to work. Let’s hope for some departure scans today!

seriously woke up multiple times in the middle of the night checking my UPS app 🤦‍♀️
I’ve checked my case about 50 times today, meant to arrive tomorrow, shipping update hasn’t updated since Friday 😞someone must’ve stolen the delivery truck 🤦‍♂️😂
 
I just put in the order to cancel my 13 mini order using online chat. After I placed my order, I received an email from my carrier with an offer for the same phone for $300 off. So I will go into the store next week and just buy one. This is apparently the most unpopular model so I'm pretty sure that they will have them in stock. My case should arrive tomorrow.
 
I have buyer remorse with the 128GB pro max I checked my settings in about i have 68GB out of 128GB

I always come back with the pro res stuff

If I do have buyer remorse can I exchange the phone for 256 GB IUP ?
Yes you an exchange but it will have to be a new loan. So you'll have to return the 128 GB model and they will close that out, and you start a new one.

If I exchange it there a wait time to get the 256 GB and I bet apple won’t let me keep my 12 pro max longer ?
Basically if you don't send your 12 Pro max back, then you have 2 loans and you'd have both. Did you do in-store pick up or delivery? If you did delivery, you can just return the 128 GB and not have to send back the 12 pro max, and they will close out the loan for the 13 pro max 128 gb. You can then start again with the 256 gb and then turn in the 12 pro max to close out that one, once you get the one you actually want.
 
I still have no tracking info since preparing to ship. I tried both my phone # and order #, but nothing comes up.
It’s your billing phone number on the reference number tracking you also need my choice
