Just another person here in the same exact boat (or pallet in this case). I talked to Apple and they started an investigation and said the same thing of it taking up to 12 days to find a resolution.


What. The. Actual. Stuck.


Jon Prosser from Front Page Tech on YouTube is making a video about this since it seems to be many people with this problem.


if anyone gets their iPhone or a resolution post it here please. I will too but not looking like I’ll get either of those any time soon.

Latest update....my gf’s (same household) phone, which was suppose to be delivered Nov. 30 and was in limbo like the rest of us here...is now considered LOST. Apple has processed her replacement phone being sent out in 2 days.


As for my phone chatting with a different rep at the same time....is still pending an investigation (12 days), but Apple believe it’s also lost in “Clearance in Progress”, but due to protocol, Id have to wait for an official investigation. (Sigh)

I mean i wouldnt have worried if it had not passed the delivery date. Its been 3 days now passed the delivery date and apple reps just stick to their policies. I read on other pages that this investigation in nothing serious. They just make us wait for some more time and expect the carrier to deliver the package. Worst purchase-shipping experience ever.

Your gf is getting a replacement because she didn’t do an investigation? I had the same delivery date but then the tracking changed to “clearance in progress.” So then i contacted Apple and asked me if I wanted to claim an investigation so I said yes and I couldn’t do anything after 12 days. but here all of us, have the same issue as your gf’s. Ugh!

I had an email today saying they are replacing mine as well and i “requested a return” which i never did. and it will be delivered on Dec 24th, another 3 weeks of waiting -_- and i have to return the first iPhone i purchased but then idk if that one is ever gonna get delivered because it seems like it got lost and stuck somewhere. When’s your gfs’ delivery date for her replacement?

If it’s coming directly from China, there’s a chance something else on the freight needed clearance. I can’t begin to tell you how many times I have run into this. Meanwhile my roommate preorders from t-mobile rather than Apple direct and it comes from Kentucky. I don’t get it. But I’ll have it tomorrow I hope then o can start dealing with all the problems. And I hope they fix them quick. As my screen is cracked and I’m not moving backward, unless I absolutely need it.
