Apple iPhone 6 & 6 Plus Questions / Reservation numbers!.

[Meowmix]

Hello Everyone!

Once again i am making the iPhone Questions / Reservation thread!!!!! Apple just announced the new iPhone which is called iPhone 6 & iPhone 6 Plus . The new iPhone's includes a bigger screen, different backing design, better camera & VoLTE & much much more. . This thread will be where you need to post questions & even your reservation numbers once Rogers announces it & puts it up. Please do NOT make another thread about reservation & or about the new iPhone . I would like to keep it as one thread & clean..I am sure getting the iPhone Plus !!!

1). Once Rogers has announce when they will add the iPhone 6 to the reservation list & the day comes, sign into your My Rogers account - Product & Services – Wireless & you will see a Red wording saying “Device Reservation" on the main page. Click that & it will take you to the page. Once there you will need to pick which device you want " iPhone 6 / 6 Plus  16GB, 64G,128GB  " & the color of the device you want. You also need to pick the store you want it to go too. Just to make it clear, reservations are for current Rogers wireless customers which have contracts with them. Rogers will put up the Pre order list for people that want to pre order the phone which have no wireless accounts with Rogers. Also just too add below is the meaning of the statues .

- If your status is "OPEN", your reservation has been made and we are awaiting product from our supplier. At this time you can change your pick-up location, contact email address or cancel your reservation.

- If your status is "CANCELLED", your reservation has been cancelled and your reservation fee will be credited back to your account.

- If your status is "IN PROGRESS", we have begun the shipment process and you will not be able to edit or cancel your reservation any longer. The next email you will get will be the one that confirms shipment to the store you chose.

- If your status is "SHIPPED", your device has left our warehouse and is on its way to the store you chose. Keep in mind that you can NOT reserve a device via calling them. It can ONLY happen if the reservation system is down but they will to reserve it via online. Plus if you reserve it via phone, you will NOT see your status or know what number you are VS reserving it online.

2). Please keep in mind that if you pick a Rogers Authorized dealership, you may not be able to get the device soon after it ships. This has been the main issue with all the iPhone reservations & most of the other devices which have been on the reservation system. I would suggest you pick a Local Rogers store (Corporate Rogers store or Rogers Plus) to go to get it. When the Rogers warehouse sends it out, the Rogers stores will get them first. Some of the Rogers Authorized dealers have their own warehouse in which the devices will go to. After that there is no tracking until the device ships from that warehouse & goes to the store & they call you. You can also look for your FlexTab aka upgrade fee online via My Rogers or contact Rogers & they will let you know.

3). Also remember you are going to have to put down a $40 fee to reserve the device. Once it ships out, the $40 fee will be reversed back into your account. IF you want to cancel your reservation, that $40 will also be credit back to you. So either way you will get that $40 back. Also remember you may NOT be the first to get the phone if you have a high number or a low one. The Reservation system is made to have a device reserved for you as the stores will be sold out. If your reservation status still says “ OPEN” after launch & a store has a device in stock, you can still go in the store & get it. Then come back home & cancel the reservation online. If the status is “ IN PROGRESS” & you get a device via a store that have one for u, you have to wait until it ships out & then tell the store that u picked u do not want it. Do reemember the reservation number is CANADA - WIDE. This means if lets say you are #45 in line for the black one, you are #45 for that GB , color & model Canada wide. Also keep in mine you have to be the account holder in order to pick up the device at the store. No one else can. You can try adding a family member as Level  on the account but some stores will decline it.

For frequently asked questions about the Rogers Reservation System, please click here Rogers Reservation FAQ

4) .For Corporate / Business customers. You guys will have a different line then regular customers do. This means you guys have a few different statutes then regular customers do. Also keep in mind for the past few years there has been issues  / confusen about business customers getting the phones via the reservation. You guys will be getting them the day of launch or after depending on your status & what goes on.

Pre orders will come out Friday Sept 12th & Launch date is Next Friday Sept 19th. I am sure Rogers will follow those orders. As for the device orders & which models Rogers will get. I am sure Rogers will get botboth models like they did last year.

Also the prices for both phones are different. So if you are going to get the iPhone 6 Plus, it will be much higher price then the iPhone 6. Rogers will announce the phone prices within either today or  sometime before Friday!!!

Also remember please post anything related about iPhone 6 & 6 Plus in here please. I know this is a long thread to read, but read it before asking multiple questions in which have been already answered in this post ( if they have been answered on this post / thread). I will do my best like I have for the past 4 years of doing this to answer any questions you have about the reservations or device.

Here are both links from Apple for the iPhone 6 & iPhone 6 Plus. I know for sure i will be getting the iPhone 6 Plus!.

Thank you!

@Buckwheat - What model did you reserve?

[Amandacasey]

I read down the line that a couple people who reserved theirs through rogers finally got to "in progress" but it stayed that way for a week 😞

Buckwheat which position were you?

I'm literally 2768 for a 6+ space grey 64

[MaaMnfNaf]

I'm disappointed right now buckwheat u said you just made it to 200 for 64gb 6+ gold... I was 199 originally & am now 141 & still have yet to ship... Or even go in progress for that matter.. Really hope this means I'll be getting my email any minute.

[Dlim58]

@jimmy2x2x: I did the same thing.  Picked up my SG 64GB 6 + at Dix30 as well.  Cancelled my Rogers reservation. I hope you enjoy your phone.

I now have both the 6 and 6 Plus to play around with and figure out which one I like more. 

For everyone else, try the Apple reserve site while keeping your existing reservation with Rogers.  Apple stores are getting priority to replenish their inventory over wireless carriers and electronic stores.  You'll need to refresh the Apple reserve site throughout the day (huge distraction at work btw lol).  I was able to get my phones that way (yesterday and today).

Also, for those who seem to not be able to access their MyRogers reservation, try the following:

1. Go to rogers.com/reservation

2. At the bottom of the page, there are two options: 1.  "Already have Rogers wireless?" or 2. "New to Rogers wireless?" 

3. Select the "New to Rogers Wireless?" and then select "Manage your reservation"

4. From there, you'll get to a login screen to enter your username and pasword

5. Hopefully, from there you'll see your reservation status

Good luck!

I reserved the +64g, Gold. I was #200 on the list. I received an email from rogers saying Im in progress and will received email with UPS tracking number when its ready to go. That actually could be days but I'm at least seeing progress. At #200 I did not see this coming this soon !

My status on the resversation site still shows open, ....hum..

[MaaMnfNaf]

Did the email say you were in progress or did it tell you your place in line and say when your device is ready to ship you will recieve tracking?

[Georgekhoshaba]

@Buckwheaat, hey thats's awesome! Welcome to the club aha, maybe they were waiting for more of our model to be processed before they start shipping it out, that's great so at least the first 200 of the 64gb 6+ Gold have been processed! Let's just hope we get shipped out soon!

I didn't get that email btw I just went in progress LOL

[Georgekhoshaba]

Ir maybe it was that email all you guys with numbers received, then he's not really in progress?

[lopes66]

@georgekhoshaba

I was #3!! Next time I'm just going through apple and buying it unlocked. I think this will be my last contract renewal!

[Buckwheeat]

@ MaaMnfNaf

Thats it, read a second time and your correct.

Was trying to post email here, but the phone wont forward it to my MBP email address. 

Shows store location they are sending too and that once shipped the UPS number will be sent out.

[Georgekhoshaba]

@lopes66,

I know man we've been in progress forever and still waiting, it better change tonight...

[MaaMnfNaf]

Oh ok lol Ya we all (open status) got that pointless email earlier.. So annoying.

[lopes66]

@george

There is no excuse for them to not ship it tonight. I know they ship over night for next day delivery and they don't go out Saturday or Sunday night so it HAS to be today!

The warehouse people probably twiddle there thumbs all night or something. I got my space grey 6+ on Saturday so I'm not sure why it didn't come together!

[Buckwheeat]

I should have ordered the 128g, maybe my Best Buy 128gig reservation will show before rogers, then I'll just cancel IF not to late.  Time will tell.

[mattc1989]

im still 226 Open for a 6+ 64gb gold........If i dont get it this week I am cancelling and leaving rogers....this is rediculous. I will never give them a good review again.

[lopes66]

@mattc1989

You might be waiting a while. They're yet to get there first shipment out for that model! It's been very frustrating. If you can try ordering from Apple but keep your Rogers just in case to see which comes first.

[MaaMnfNaf]

I'm with you Matt I'm 141 open for the same model if I don't see it this week and have no answers or apology from rogers I will be moving all my services elsewhere.

[Georgekhoshaba]

@lopes66,

Exactly and they had all weekend to process and prepare these phones for shipment, they're already late by now they should've had a ton of extra agency employees and people working OT to get ll this done, it HAS to ship out tonight, they had all weekend to work on our order, or obviously Rogers is doing something wrong, and UPS has to be there, if they aren't UPS and Rogers are both tools.

[Georgekhoshaba]

Lool so basically all of us messaging at this moment are waiting for that gold 64gb model

[KittyKat43]

@buckwheeat - I almost flipped out when I read that u were in "progress". Ur 200 and I'm 88 and we're in line for the exact phone and I got nothing but this lossy update email... Unfortunately Rogers was playing with us a bit by sending this update! I am not expecting my phone anytime soon... Based on what I read Rogers has no iPhone 6 plus stock (and when they get, I assume it's for all the in progress people). Rogers should never have allowed walk ins to purchase before reserved people- which they did do...

[MaaMnfNaf]

They had better got a shipment of at least 200 of them (64gb 6+ gold) today and are planning on shipping them tonight lol
