fucking apples!!!BULLSHIET iwas inline for the iphone and they say they don't have it at both location early in the morning and none have it!!. I just check craigslist someguy bought 1 and got it at 12:20pm wtf!!

Hondaracer 08-27-2010 06:44 PM

so when they are mailing me the phone, does it have a micro-sim with my number on it already? or is there just a sim card i need to phone in to activate?

way2quik 08-27-2010 09:00 PM

Apple doesn't provide a micro-sim in the box. Go to an Apple store with your receipt and they'll give you one free of charge, at least they should.

fido rep had no idea wtf i was saying about APN3CON, and told me he was never trained in it nor his supervisor had no clue.

also said that if it wasent offered on the fido.ca website then i cannot do it.


im thinking once i get my new plan ill just tell them to leave it on BBM DATA instead of iphone data... even though im renewing my contract with data for the iphone lol

that way.. im hoping i can switch my sim out and use both no problem

the problem i had with bbm data was i couldnt get data to work on any other phone unless i used wap..even if it was a smartphone like the x10...so i switched to smartphone data instead

fido shipped my phone with micro-sim. only need to go online to fido.ca and you can activate yourself instantly

I have similar to yours, but i pay 60$ taxes in and i get unlimited networking as well as unlimited texting on top of what you have. also i have 300 minutes
call back and negotiate a lil more!

ericthehalfbee 08-28-2010 07:51 AM

Got my e-mail yesterday that my two iPhones have shipped. Not bad, only 3 days from when I called to complain. Much better than running from store to store hoping someone has stock.

Yeah...but only for a bit...I'm planning on keeping the iphone for a few months and then selling it...just want something new to play around with...I'm pretty sure i'll get bored of it fairly quickly like I did the iphone 3g...

Yeah...I now meet all criteria to be a drug dealer! :D

CRS 08-28-2010 11:09 AM

Street pharmacist! Not drug dealer!

efa5 08-28-2010 11:25 AM

called in fido retentions yesterday, they had the 16gb in stock when I called to confirm, but were out 5 minutes later by the time the rep finished processing everything haha.

Anyone line up at the Apple store @ PC or Oakridge? How was it?

Hondaracer 08-28-2010 11:48 AM

With the amount of times retentions has had phones is it really worth lining up?

Haven't got my email yet confirming my shipment, only goes through on business days?

c3m 08-28-2010 12:09 PM

^ I think most people are lining up for the Apple Unlocked ones not the provider locked ones

Also, do try to track it on ups even if you don't have a confirmation email on shipment
Just use your 10 digit cell phone number in the UPS Track by reference

DanHibiki 08-28-2010 12:55 PM

I'm still pretty pissed bout them fucking up my order. If they dont' get it to me next week.....HFKAHKJAHAHKADHJAHkfjHAKjAFHDAHKFAH BREAK IN THEIR OFFICE WITH A M16!!!!!!!

Ronin 08-28-2010 02:38 PM

Called Fido and they didn't have anything available.

Retention did let me change up my plan though to a newer retention plan without having to renew my contract. Paying about $20 less now.
