I'm done for my twice a year family shopping spree (wife+in-laws are all hardcore apple users, so I'm basically always lining up for the 2/person allocation. One for wife, another for sis-in-law)

Apple is actually making it easier and easier. I don't even have to go line up this time around.

@terkan: I reserved a grey 128GB, which's for myself. But I'm having a second thought about the storage option. Let me know if you want to trade it.

Reserved a couple of phones. Might flip to bulk dealers if profit is good. Anyone know any bulk dealers looking to stock up?

Spoke with retentions for Bell, they won't grandfather my corporate plan for the 6. Contract expires in October paying currently 50 taxes in for 6gb data, unlimited everything else caller ID Voicemail etc, they want the 80 min (60 for voice + 20 for 500mb of data) for a subsidized 6. Might as well just buy an unlocked phone and keep my plan and save 300-350 or buy in the U.S. and save 400 over 2 years.

Can't seem to be able to reserve a device only through store? They have stock for contract only.

Wife is currently with bell and wants to get a new plan with data. Figure buying unlock is cheaper than paying for the 80 min a month plans. Any suggestions?

i just spoke to Rogers retention, and they wont grandfather my plan either. to get a subsidized phone they require the min $80 plan as well. and these 80 a month plans suck donkey dick.

i pay $60 a month for 6GB, unlimited canada wide and VM pack and to switch over to a similar plan with their new "share everything plan" its a $78 diff every month, which at the end of 2 years means an extra $1700+. what a joke!

Oh well.

That's why it makes absolutely no sense whatsoever to do a HUP

I had the same issue when I got my nexus on contract and I kept escalating it until I got to the office of the president support.

If you have time just keep trying and you may be granted an exception like I was.
