Google Nexus 6 on T-Mobile

Re: Question about buying nexus 6 on T-Mobile store..

Can you JUMP in store and do the Direct Ship to Fulfillment? Since I'd be JUMPing to the 64gb. Would they take my device in store or do I ship it later like with a normal online order? Ahh maybe I'll just order online. What timezone is the midnight time in?

Too many questions... Lol.

Yeah its ridiculous that people have to jump through hoops just to get a damn phone. I miss the good old days when all you had to do was drop a deposit and you're guaranteed a phone.

Exactly what the play store should have done! $50 nonrefundable deposit and get in line!

Yes, you can go into the store and have the device shipped to you, in fact that is what will happen since TMo stores will not be carrying the 64gb version. I'm JUMPing to the Nexus 6 and will be trying to complete my order online. I have already checked my TMo account and it indicates I'm JUMP eligible, so it looks like I'm good to go.

I've read that TMo sends you the upgrade and a return shipping label. Then you send them your old phone. You have a limited amount of time otherwise you will be responsible for the full price of both phones.

I just wish I knew what time ordering is going to open......really don't want to stay up all night. I'm afraid many who want the 64gb N6 will be hitting TMo since the phone is unlocked. Not really fair to TMo subscribers.

I don't think they will let you just buy the phone outright... At least not on T-Mobile.com.... I just tried to get an LG G3 in the cart without a plan and it won't let you skip the plan part... You have to add a new service plan and pay $10.00 for the SIM card... I ran into this last year before I had switched to T-Mobile.... The site won't let you just buy the phone without a post paid account already in place or set up a new post paid account.. I am on a prepaid plan and my local T-Mobile store told me they'd sell me one outright on launch day (Nexus 6) but they had to finagle it a little as usually pre-paid customers and people who just want to buy a phone outright pay a premium over the regular retail... I think he said they are (in store) charging $100 extra on top of the $649 if you just want to buy the phone outright without a plan....

Only way they could do the 64 and have it shipped to me is if I signed up for post paid..... The problem I have with that is I use that $30 a month 100 minutes of talk, unlimited data (5 GB at LTE) and unlimited text plan..... I usually use up all my 5 GB of LTE each month so I'd need to upgrade to at least the $70 a month plan to keep 5 GB of LTE ($50 a month for the basic post paid plan).... or $40 a month more than I pay now... So I don't want to go post paid.... I like my $30 little prepaid plan....

From what I read it opens up on 12am PST.....that means 3am my time lol. Which is why I'm having them order it for me.

How are you having them (TMo?) order for you? I was in my TMo store today and they can't order either. The sales person tried.

im sure he means on wed. the phone isnt released yet, so you wouldnt be able to have them order it today.

One point, if it matters in your decision, is the blue has a blue-tinged metal band whereas the white is a silver band. If you're adding a skin, it would have a major difference in the look.

That $30 plan is really tempting, lol.

I only originally got it to do a test drive on T-Mobile with my Nexus 5.... Really thought it was going to be a one month and done.... Then I looked back at all my bills and I only averaged 60 - 80 minutes of talk per month... My highest total was like 118 minutes but no other month in the previous year went over 100 minutes.... So I just kept it.... So I've been saving almost $50 a month over the last year... pretty much paid for my Nexus 6 right there......

Yeah my T-Mobile store said they could order the 64 GB and have it brought into the store or directly to my home.. but they couldn't do that until 11/12 when it went on sale... It's blocked from doing so until launch (because I asked if he could go ahead and get me one on the way for the 12th)

2 AM for me.......central time. Do you have a link for that info? Just curious. It makes sense since TMo is headquartered on the west coast.

Good luck to any of you getting up before the Rooster does to check if you can buy it on T-Mobile.com... I just hope my Motorola preorder ships early this week.... They said ships 11/12 or 11/13 and shipping from their Fort Worth, Texas warehouse... Which works for me since I live just 20 minutes up the road... Ground shipping should get to me in just one day... HOPEFULLY all goes well and I have it by the weekend....

No clue what I'll do if the store calls to tell me to come pick one up Wednesday........

GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!!!!!

If you order in the store, how do they ship? Is it free overnight? I know when I JUMP online you pay $7 for UPS Ground.
