Actually had some trouble this year with verizon and had to cancel + reorder. Their online portal struggles with adding an apartment number. when i added:

MyAddress
APT 309
CITY, STATE

it kept translating that to:

APTMyAddres309,309, City State

had to just leave the apartment number off and figure it out when it ships.
That being said looks like verizon had plenty of inventory still for pro max shipping on first day (9/22) still whereas apple is already pushing back into october
I had this exact same issue when trying to change the shipping address on mine. I couldn't find any way for it to stop adding APT at the beginning, so I just am having it shipped to the main account address since I know someone will be there to sign for it. I didn't want to run into any delivery issues with the way they were formulating the address, but man so frustrating!
 
THIS MEAN FREE iPhone 15 pro max 256GB I have not order will do soon just testing around ….

Lol my Apple Card was declined twice as I manually inputted it this morning, I had to use Apple Pay. I was iffy with using Apple Pay because I remember an issue a couple years ago for Verizon preordering.

I have a delivery on 9/22, hopefully it goes smoothly.
 
This is what I don’t understand when every craps on the 36 month bill payment. If you keep it the full 36 months it’s a crazy trade in value. If you end up trading in 24 months from now, you lose the last 12 months of bill credits. That means Verizon still paid you $554 for a phone that Apple was only offering $250. I don’t see why people believe you are getting ripped off. Of course I would prefer the credits over 24 months, but $554 is still a good deal compared to the crazy deal of $830 for a 4 year old phone…
I read somewhere else that you can:

Sell your phone privately after 1-2 years (or trade it in on a trade-in website), buy your next iPhone from Apple and pay in full (or finance through Apple), have Verizon switch your device to the newly purchased phone, and still continue to receive your monthly credits from your current Verizon device payment plan. Basically, the credits don’t stop unless you enter into another device payment plan with Verizon.

Is this true? If so, I’ll just upgrade with Apple next time so that I don’t lose my monthly trade in credits from Verizon.

I was able to order a new iPhone 15 Pro Max 512GB as well as a new Ultra 2 (I have the Series 6 now). Both are giving me a date of 9/22. Hopefully true, but as long as it arrives by 9/29, I will be ok with things.
 
It showed up in UPS My Choice and then I got an email from Verizon about 30 min ago
Anyone remember logging into the backend of Verizon’s system to see status changes? lol I remember doing this for my 6 plus that was instantly delayed like four weeks because of high demand. Good times. Much easier now.
 
What’s the weight of your shipment? In past years, Verizon has fooled us with sending a trade-in box a few days before a new phone.
2 lbs. It also shows the same tracking number under the device on the Verizon order status page and the email confirmation that the phone shipped.
 
Went through Apple for a slightly different deal structure. I have a November 6th date. White 256GB Pro Max. I can wait no problem. Do you actually think it will take them to November to fulfill my order? I think they’ll be a lil faster than that. But then again I’ve never ordered through Apple before.

Apple usually will deliver before that date. In the other tracking thread last year, a lot people received their devices before the estimated delivery date.

I only like ordering through Apple, because I’m able to track my iPhone from Chine to my front door, but with the issues I ran into, I’m re-thinking next year.
