I did the pre approval for the iPhone Financing and did not get charged tax or anything yet.
Got a tip for us?

The only thing that has hit my Apple Card is the charge for the case I ordered earlier today.
Okay makes sense is its just a pre preorder so nothing gets charged till its shipped or ready for pick up?
Correct - you haven't actually ordered anything yet, all you've done is prepared for the pre-order that will happen Friday morning. Friday morning you will actually make the order, and at that point, you will start to see charges to your card soon after.
This used to be me, tracking and then intercepting at UPS CC and before that waiting all day for the UPS delivery at home. Now I take the day off of work, do in store pickup and spend the rest of the day getting acquainted with my new device.

I did the pre approval for the upgrade program with financing and my apple card got charged basically instantly.
Yeah no charge until pre order. If you finance you should be charged tax and first months payment (if using iPhone Loans) shortly after order or around when it is about to ship.
same and my apple store is still telling me to get my pre-order ready
This is going to be a stupid question, granted I believe I already know the answer…
I decided I’m going to try the pre-preorder today. Does the card holders name have to be the same as the Apple ID account name? I know the shipping address doesn’t have to be, but just want to make sure the billing address doesn’t have to be the same either.

No the card and account don't have to match. You just need to enter the correct billing info if it's not the same as the shipping info.
No, just make sure the billing info is correct and more importantly, that the address it's being shipped to is correct.
Hi folks, long time iPhone serial upgrader here. This is the first year I am like eh about upgrading. I have a 14 Pro Max. I also moved to an MNVO this year on my IUP so upgrading is sort of a pain anyway as I have to do it on my wife's line and then activate the eSim for visible. Anyway, I pre-qualified today and I am trying to decide if I should upgrade--monthly stays the same, but I guess sales tax is the main thing.
Before the keynote I told my wife I was leaning 80-20 on whether to upgrade, she laughed and said I bet its the other way around--20% you don't and 80% you do!

You wish 😉
No, I’m just using my developer Apple ID since my primary is going to get that order cancelled 😰
I think I’ve landed on the natural titanium color. Tough choice between that and black!
Have stores started selling the new cases yet? I have to pickup a MacBook that was repaired tomorrow, so I might try to get a FineWoven case if it's available.
Yes. I was confused at first by the charge on my Apple Card, but it clicked.
