Apple Singapore Keeps Canceling My iPhone 5 Order

Hi,
Apple Online Singapore keeps canceling my order of iPhone 5 - a gift for my mom and dad for their anniversary (they are still using the 3G iphones.)
The first one being I used my husband's credit card (we wanted the credit points for the purchase). They informed me that my husband already bought during the pre-order period (one for him and another one for me.) Understanding their policy of "Limit 2 per customer", I did not complain. So I decided to order again,  using my own credit card and Apple Store credentials - this is my first time to actually purchase from the online store as typically my husband buys for me. Just yesterday, Apple canceled my order again - receiving the same email that says "Apple is unable to fulfill orders that exceed the quantity limit per customer." I gave their customer service hotline a call again, and they are unable to explain why the 2nd order got canceled. I requested them to reconsider my order, as I believe it complies with the limit. The polite CS rep said he will submit a request but it will take 2-3 days to be assessed, and not sure if approved, and that the delivery date will be moved depending on the approval date. The 1st order's delivery date was 1st November, the 2nd one was 5th November. My parents wedding anniversary will be on the 10th. The Online Store is again closed for orders and I am worried that either the delivery date slips (if approved) or I am not able to buy the phones anymore since Apple might cancel it again. I am frustrated that  I cannot find any contacts to Apple to complain about this and that we have to be at the mercy of their ordering system/staff to purchase the devices. Why do I have to go through all this hassle even though I followed the store policy? They cannot even approve my order right away when I called when my credentials are obviously valid. Sigh. If only the items are available on the retail stores here (and they said not sure when it will be avialable).
Anybody can point me out where to complain or voice out my concerns to Apple? Or anybody from Apple Customer Relations? I cannot find any link on Apple's website to send this concern. I feel like Apple Singapore is short of customer service standard too.
Thanks to all and have a great weekend.

Apple has already reactivated my order after a few follow-up calls. ;-)

  • My canadian iphone 4S screen looks yellow and its looked to rogers, will apple singapore can replace my iphone 4S screen for free coz its under warranty for another 6 months

    my canadian iphone 4S screen looks yellow and its looked to rogers, will apple singapore can replace my iphone 4S screen for free coz its under warranty for another 6 months... i'm in singapore at the morment so what is the best thing i should do ?? will they send my iphone to canada for the repair or do i have to wait till i fly back ???

    No.
    You would have to send your iphone to someone you know in Canada, then that person would have to get the iphone to Apple.
    Apple will not accept a shipment from outside the country.

  • Cannot cancel delayed iPhone order

    On the scheduled arrival date if my order, I was informed by email that the iPhone I had ordered overnight shipped would not arrive for another 10-21 days. The email stated that "If that's okay with you, and you accept the delay and new delivery date, you don't have to do anything prior to shipping. Once your order has shipped, we'll send you the tracking information"
    Of course it did not tell me that if this delay was not okay with me, or that I do not accept the delay that there was absolutely nothing I could do. I have spent over an hour on hold waiting for customer service representatives to inform me that my best course of action is to allow Best Buy to hold onto my $800, wait three weeks for my phone to arrive, and just deal with it.
    I placed a purchase on your website based on the promise of overnight delivery of in stock inventory. Since you are unable to fulfill the promise that you made via your website, I expected a means to be able to cancel my order. Holding my funds without delivering the product is theft.
    Please let me know if there is any possibility that I can actually get my money back, or if you will simply keep it without fulfilling your end of the transaction.

    Hello Gonesailin,
    As someone who is considering purchasing a new cell phone, I can imagine your excitement to purchase a new iPhone! It would truly disappointing to place the order, only to find that your order would not arrive for a few weeks.
    Using the information you registered with the forum, I was able to locate your iPhone order. Presently, it appears that your iPhone was delivered today, two days after you placed the order. As you chose express shipping, this would be within the 2 business days that we estimate for arrival.
    I apologize if you received any notifications that your iPhone would be taking longer to arrive. If you should have any questions or other concerns, please let me know!
    Enjoy your iPhone!
    Regards,

  • How long will a local Apple Store keep an Ipad Air ordered online for me

    Hi,
    I may want to order a 64gb Ipad Air online during Black Friday and pick it up in a NYC local store when I get there on dec 28th.
    I'm actually in Europe and will not be in the US before the end of december.
    This means holding the item for me for about a month.
    Is this possible since it is already paid for ?
    Or is there a limited time to come to get the item ?
    Thanks
    Regards,
    Marc

    I would call them and ask. No one here will know exactly what they'll do since this is a user to user forum.

  • Can I cancel my iPhone 6 plus pre order and still keep my upgrade?

    We pre ordered the phone on 2 month contract upgrade, but now we want to cancel the pre order. The phone still hasn't shipped yet, it's supposed to ship out by the end of the month, so can we cancel the pre order and still keep the upgrade for a different phone?

        ba1696,
    Ordering a new phone and being able to purchase one at any time is certainly exciting. If you purchase a new phone and have not received it,you most certainly can cancel the order and keep your uprgade date the same. Was there any particular reason you were wanting to cancel the order for the iPhone 6? Was the order placed online or over the phone? We have all of the options available for you.

    Hi there
    I'm getting a similar problem with my Macbook Pro. itunes match was working fine until two days ago when i created another 'user id' for the laptop and then an itunes account for that user under their profile. Now i cant turn on itunes match on my itunes under my user account. Contacted Apple today who said to use the Express Lane and email the problem and they might be able to make an 'exception' on the account. Otherwise I'll have to wait 88 days to access a lot of my music on the macbook pro. itunes match is still working on the iphone 4S and ipad2.
    Can anyone help? The only thought was too re-stream the laptop. Ive already tried deauthorising the other user but it made no difference.
    Thanks

    Hello khanhlinh98,
    I would recommend performing the following steps in order to stabilize your iPhone.
    Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
    Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
    Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIsand corrosion.
    Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
    After at least 30 minutes, if:
    The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see the battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen. Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
    The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
    Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
    If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
    If the display turns on, go to step 4.
    If the display remains black, go to next step.
    Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
    If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
    My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?
    Contact Apple Support.

  • Why does my iPhone keep cancelling my syncs no matter how many times I try?

    Please don't try to give me advice like "have you tried restarting your iphone?" Yes. I have. Several times.
    I want to know why my syncs keep cancelling for seemingly no reason. YES I have the usb cable plugged in. YES I've updated to the latest version of iOS.
    I've tried doing complete syncs. That doesn't work. I've tried managing my music manually and dragging albums into my iphone. That doesn't work. Every single time the message at the top of the itunes window all of a sudden switches to "cancelling update" or "finishing sync" and I'm left with nothing.
    And this all started because I was trying to solve the problem of iCloud creating doubles of all the songs I purchased on my phone directly, which is another stupid problem that this "support" website has failed to fix. And by trying to fix it myself I've reduced my phone to a state of total uselessness as a music player.

    Hello, stashmore94. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    Usually the reason for interrupted, stalled or canceled syncing alerts is a result of either security software interference or TCP/IP modifications.  Also, non Apple cables and low powered USB hubs can cause this issue.  Here are a couple resources that I would recommend going through as they may help resolve the issue.

  • After I updated my iPhone with IOS 6.1 my old Apple ID keeps popping up on my iPhone for me to type in the password that I no longer know. On the Apple site the Manage my Apple ID says my old Apple ID could not be found. How do I get this to stop?

    I just updated my iPhone with the newest update IOS 6.1. My old Apple ID keeps popping up on my iPhone for me to type in the password that I no longer know. All the passwords I type in do not work. I no longer have access to this email which is my old Apple ID. After installing the newest software update my old Apple ID came up to finish configuring. Since I no longer have access to this Apple ID and email account and after trying some passwords I skipped the step. It then said FaceTime, iCloud (which I do not use), and more may not work. I clicked that it was OK since I could not remember the password to my old Apple ID. I then went to my settings to be sure my newer email was my Apple ID by typing in my current Apple ID and password.  Also, I went to Manage my Apple ID online and my old Apple ID could not be found. Is it OK I skipped that step in the IOS 6.1 configuration? How do I get my old Apple ID to stop popping up?

    Blue
    It sounds like you restored from an old back-up.  Did you back-up just before your software update?  It will use your last one and if your last back-up was a ywear old then it will use that one.
    In general, if you are getting these messages on your iPhones select logout (when you get that Apple Id request) and then log back in with your newer ID.
    Sorry for your losses.
    Cheers

  • Iphone 5 got wet, now apple logo keeps blinking and phone is unresponsive. When I try to restore it I get error code 21 then on another computer I get error code 2006.

    My iPhone 5 got wet and I dried it out for 3 days. Now when I charge it the apple logo keeps blinking. Phone is unresponsive, so I tried to restore it but got error code 21. Tried on another computer and got error code 2006. Any suggestions, or is it impossible to get it back?

    Error 20, 21, 23, 26, 28, 29, 34, 36, 37, 40
    These errors typically occur when security software interferes with the restore and update process. FollowTroubleshooting security software issues to resolve this issue. In rare cases, these errors may be a hardware issue. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.
    Also, check your hosts file to verify that it's not blocking iTunes from communicating with the update server. See iTunes: Advanced iTunes Store troubleshooting—follow steps under the heading Blocked by configuration (Mac OS X / Windows) > Rebuild network information > Mac OS X > The hosts file may also be blocking the iTunes Store. If you have software used to perform unauthorized modifications to the iOS device, uninstall this software prior to editing the hosts file to prevent that software from automatically modifying the hosts file again on restart.
    Error 2000-2009 (2001, 2002, 2005, 2006, 2009, and so on)
    If you experience this issue on a Mac, disconnect third-party devices, hubs, spare cables, displays, reset the SMC, and then try to restore. If you are using a Windows computer, remove all USB devices and spare cables other than your keyboard, mouse, and the device, restart the computer, and try to restore. If that does not resolve the issue, try the USB issue-resolution steps and articles listed for Error 1604 above. If the issue persists, it may be related to conflicting security software. If the errors persist on another computer and known-good USB cable, the device may need service.
    If neither of those fix it, then it's toast. it will have to be replaced.

  • My iphone 5 cannot restart in itunes or by the power charger.  The apple icon keeps flashing

    my iphone 5 cannot restart in itunes or by the power charger.  The apple icon keeps flashing

    Basic Troubleshooting Steps when all else fails
    - Quit the App by opening multi-tasking bar, and swiping the App upward to make it disappear.  (For iOS 6 older, hold down the icon for the App for about 3-5 seconds, and then tap the red circle with the white minus sign.)
    - Relaunch the App and try again.
    - Restart the device. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    - Reset the device. (Same article as above.)
    - Reset All Settings (Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings)
    - Restore from backup. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766 (If you don't have a backup, make one now, then skip to the next step.)
    - Restore as new device. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137  For this step, do not re-download ANYTHING, and do not sign into your Apple ID.
    - Test the issue after each step.  If the last one does not resolve the issue, it is likely a hardware problem.
