Why would jailbreaking make or break the deal?

Just a reminder

Richmond Centre Apple Store is opening this Saturday (9/11) at 930am
so if you are looking for iPhone 4, they'll most likely have the most stock that day
or you can go line up at other stores since the opening will probably attract many people there.

my friend lined up at roger's and wasn't as lucky.

If you already knew you're getting an iPhone from retention, why did you still go around looking for one? Anyways, they will just charge you full price for the second one when you get your bill.

I wasn't. Retentions fucked up my order then told me nothing they could do about it.

Here I posted this on Hofo with more detail.


So I ordered my phone on the 25th thru retentions. The guy ****ed up apparently when I didn't get a confirmation the next day. I call back, they said there's a 3yr agreement but no evidence of ordering an iphone. The guy said he'll contact that person who ****ed up and have him call me in 24hrs.

No call back...so I gave them another call. Got a nice lady who filed a complaint against that guy, reverse the agreement and put me on her "personal callback list" for when they get more phones.

Sometimes next week...I check my account online and the 3year agreement is STILL there. SO I call back ONCE AGAIN to get that fixed, negotiated a new deal that I will accept once i find an iphone.

TODAY...I went to the Fido store at Brentwood and picked up an iphone. I told the lady I had a plan worked out with retentions and so she called them and they tried to get everything place correctly and I get the plan I wanted and the properly discount price.

It took a while and there was a lot of back and forth between the two so I called back an hour after I left the store to confirm everything was ok. The guy said that the plan is there but they charged me for the full retail price instead of the 159 discount price. He fixed that, gave me a confirmation and case #. All is good.

I get home, check my email....

Hardware order shipment confirmation

Order date (dd/mm/yyyy)

27/08/2010

Expected shipment date (dd/mm/yyyy)

08/09/2010


O_o So apparently I was put on their back order all along yet none of the CSR saw this?

So what does this mean. Am I gonna get 2 phones?? Will they charge me for both? Am I in some lucky situation that I get a 2nd one for free?
