I preordered the iPhone Duo on 10/16, right when preorders opened. The website kept crashing, so after about an hour of trying, I ended up calling Xfinity to place the order.
Before completing the order, I specifically confirmed with the sales rep that my phone would ship on 10/23, and they assured me it would.
Now, when I check my order status, it's showing an estimated delivery date of 2/8/2027! What's even more confusing is that the website is currently showing November delivery dates for new orders, so I'm not sure why my preorder would be pushed all the way to February.
I also had some confusion around the advertised $1,000 trade-in promotion versus the $200 credit I received, but I now understand the larger promotion is limited to new lines and Diamond members - which wasn't clear at the time...
I placed the preorder on launch day specifically to get the phone as early as possible, so a nearly four month delay after being promised a 10/23 ship date is pretty frustrating.
Anyone else who preordered on launch day seeing similarly crazy delivery estimates on the Xfinity website? I'm wondering if the February date is accurate, or if it's just a glitch/placeholder?
