How to pre order the iphone 5 from apple?

I know i have to wait until sept 12th after they release the date but after that how does it usually work if i want to go through apple? Do i have to go to apple that day to make sure i get one? If i don't want to get the first batch of them how long does it usually take until they have them again?

Nobody knows yet. Keep in mind your trying to purchase a product that doesn't yet exist.

The first stop to check upgrade eligibility is Verizon, AT&T and Sprint. Each carrier offers different upgrade paths, but logging in to your account or calling customer service is the fastest way to see when you can upgrade. Apple offers a handy iPhone upgrade eligibility check, but you'll need the last four of the primary account holder's SSN. For the iPhone 5 preorder make sure you have the following information at hand. Preordering the iPhone 5 is the best way top make sure you have a new iPhone on release day, but preorders go fast.

If you are not the primary account holder, you'll need to know;

Number to upgrade
Account Password
Last four of the Primary Account holder's SSN
A means of paying online

The lack of the primary account holder's SSN is the most likely to trip up users who want to jump on the iPhone 5 preorder as soon as it is available. The preorders may very well take place on Sept 14th as well but we'll just have to wait and see.

Apple is yet to release any details on the iPhone 5, besides the fact that it is being released on September 12.So you will have to wait until the announcement until you can find out how to buy one. Most likely it will be Online and/or through Apple store or Apple retailers.

  • When the heck is apple going to let people pre order the iphone 5? What time do you know that the will open it? They were supposed to at midnight and I've been waiting for 31 minutes now.
  • Verizon iPhone 5 Pre-Order - apple.com or verizonwireless.com? I'm planning on signing a new contract with Verizon (not currently a customer) and pre-ordering iPhone 5… Will it be best to go through apple.com or verizonwireless.com at 3am, or is there no difference?
  • Should I pre-order the iPhone 5 online or wait until the launchdate? Ok so here's the problem, I'm looking to get the iPhone 5 on a new 2year contract with Verizon & I have no credit backgroundd cause I'm 20 so I heard they would charge me for the phone & I guess like $400 cause I don't have any credit. I'm not sure how this all works or if I should wait till it comes out & go purchase it at the store but not sure if they would do all the same? Lots of answers with detail would be awesome! A deposit of what? How much?
  • Should I pre order the iphone 5? I figured this was a no-brainer, but when I went to pre-order it, they said it will be shipped in 14-21 business days. So I would be receiving it well after the September 21 release date. Will I be able to get my hands on one on the actual release date, or are they going to be sold out everywhere? I would probably be going later on in the day because of work if that makes any difference.
