So $15 iPhone Forever price offer ends today and tomorrow it will be $22?

So people will have a phone for possibly 15 days before trading it in? Seems like now that we know the official preorder and available dates Sprint should extend the $15 until the end of the month.

They did extend it. I was off today but that what i heard. Ill chek tomorrow.

 

Also if people had a down payment on iphone forever whether it wa 50 or 350 when they do their upgrade it will be only $25 down.

So I used the setup tool on the Apple Store website to check out the Apple leasing/upgrade program and it says my plan is not eligible. It directs me to the Sprint website to order a phone. I am on Framily. So if you are on a plan that normally requires you to go through Sprint to do upgrades or changes it looks like the Apple store option would not be available to you.

Same thing happened to me. Looks like it's a roll of the dice tonight with Sprint at 12:01 Pacific...

If you lease a device from Sprint, can u buy out lease and be upgrade eligible again?

I assume so. If someone does it, please let me know the results.

Yes once you terminate the lease it will make you eligible for an upgrade. Customer care has to send an escalations ticket and the upgrade eligibility should reflect within 24 hours.

 

For the apple upgrade program, I will only be financing the device correct? Will I need to activate the iPhone at the POS? I have an employee plan through sprint and the only way I can purchase phones is buying them outright. Also I have to go through Sprint employee accounts to activate my device...

 

I just don't want to make the trip to Apple if they can't help me since they won't have access to my sprint account

Id be shocked if you could get the iphone on employee account at launch. EWD and SWAC both are blocked from having iphone 6s.

How does one trade in a phone to do the lease via the preorder?

 

Can I preorder and then turn in a device at the store after getting the phone or do I send one in via mail before the phone arrives?

My order confirmation said a return envelope would be included to return my trade in with.

I have a pretty big scruff on the corner of my device I have to return. Let's hope it isn't too bad!

    • Definite usage quirks in hunting down these sites with a rainbow sim in a s24 ultra. Fell into a hole yesterday so sent off to T-Mobile purgatory. Try my various techniques. No Dish. Get within binocular range of former Sprint colocation and can see Dish equipment. Try to manually set network and everybody but no Dish is listed.  Airplane mode, restart, turn on and off sim, still no Dish. Pull upto 200ft from site straight on with antenna.  Still no Dish. Get to manual network hunting again on phone, power off phone for two minutes. Finally see Dish in manual network selection and choose it. Great signal as expected. I still think the 15 minute rule might work but lack patience. (With Sprint years ago, while roaming on AT&T, the phone would check for Sprint about every fifteen minutes. So at highway speed you could get to about the third Sprint site before roaming would end). Using both cellmapper and signalcheck.net maps to hunt down these sites. Cellmapper response is almost immediate these days (was taking weeks many months ago).  Their idea of where a site can be is often many miles apart. Of course not the same dataset. Also different ideas as how to label a site, but sector details can match with enough data (mimo makes this hard with its many sectors). Dish was using county spacing in a flat suburban area, but is now denser in a hilly richer suburban area.  Likely density of customers makes no difference as a poorer urban area with likely more Dish customers still has country spacing of sites.
    • Mike if you need more Dish data, I have been hunting down sites in western Columbus.  So far just n70 and n71 reporting although I CA all three.
    • Good catch! I meant 115932/119932. Edited my original post I've noticed the same thing lately and have just assumed that they're skipping it now because they're finally able to deploy mmWave small cells.
