Is there any guidance yet on that date? Thanks.

Tell us you're a retail rep without telling us you're a retail rep....
V makes more money because of their employees and their people who tend to not change carriers, which should naturally be rewarded. Better off having unsatisfied employees at a high risk, rather than external churn locked into a contract. The hierarchy do not care what phone an employee has.
Last year with iPhone 16 was late October
My experience three years ago for the 14 was about 30 days they wait to allow employees to be able to order and then whatever the delivery wait time. It will probably bump up to about 2 weeks out in mid October so you’re looking at possibly activating late October. Just a guess based on history. They won’t let our accounts order on Apple site either because the phone can’t be activated but once they do delivery that way may be faster and they offer the same carrier discounts
@at, go to an apple store for the immediate gratification you're seeking.
@at VZ makes less money on employee accounts and people tend to not change carriers because of the discount. Better off having customers at a higher risk of churn locked into a contract. Customers do not care what phone an employee has.
It’s always months behind. Customers EXPECT us to have the latest devices BEFORE official release, because they want to see us stand behind them.
“Saving supply for customers” makes it look like we’re weary of new tech and customers hesitate to buy if they’re left wondering why employees haven’t taken the leap yet.
