Tried to buy an iphone online. Lack of credit history.  Got some questions.

Hey, just tried to buy an iphone online, but cause of lack of credit history I had to pay a $100 deposit and pick it up at my local store. Does any of you know if I need to go and pick it up in person or if I could send my brother to pick it up and pay the $100 deposit, as long as I order it online in advance. Kind of on a busy schedule for the moment .

Call the local store and ask. Most likely, you'll need to pick it up yourself, as there will probably be a signature required for the contract.

  • Why does it keep telling me that my account is locked when I am trying to buy the iphone 4s?

    Why does it keep telling me that my account is locked when I am trying to buy the iphone 4s?

    Why does what tell you that what account is locked? 
    The Apple Store says your itunes account is locked?
    Your carrier says your wireless account is locked?
    Your bank account?

  • HT201493 Hi guys I'm wondering that if you buy an iphone online and have paid for it you've been using it can the seller get the phone blocked ?

    Hi guys I'm wondering that if you buy an iphone online and have paid got it and you've been using it can the seller get the phone blocked even though you own the phone and you have proof you bought the phone ?

    Sorry, there is nothing you can do until the device is removed from the sellers Apple ID.
    Without that, your device can't be used, check these articles:

  • I would like to buy an iPhone for my friend in Iceland.  Two questions: will the phone work with complete utility in Iceland, and if so, what should I do to confirgure it while in the USA so that it can have full utility in Iceland?

    I would like to buy an iPhone for my friend in Iceland.  Two questions: will the phone work with complete utility in Iceland, and if so, what should I do to confirgure it while in the USA so that it can have full utility in Iceland?

    Bad idea. There are no supported iPhone carriers in Iceland, thus some features may or may not work. Further, there will be no warranty or support for a US purchased iPhone in Iceland...your friend will be on their own. If you still want to go down this road, make sure you purchase an officially unlocked iPhone(GSM model) directly from Apple.

    The page that you posted from has instructions for how to reset them i.e. if you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then steps 1 to 5 half-way down that page should give you a reset link.
    If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple in your country to get the questions reset (these are user-to-user forums).
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
    When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down the HT5312 page that you posted from to add a rescue email address for potential future use

    iTunes only keeps one backup, every new backup replaces the old one, only backups used to restore from are not overwritten and marked with a time stamp.
    If you can't find any other backup in iTunes/Edit/Preferences/Devices, your contact info's are gone. Only if you included the backup folder in your computer backup routine, you would be able to restore the old backup folder containing the latest backup at that time.
    The location of the backup folder is described in this article: iPhone and iPod touch: About backups

  • Trying to buy an iphone in hongkong

    im getting really frusterated.  I am from canada living in china and want to buy an iphone from hong kong.  I spent alot of time trying to reserve one only to find out that If I am not a scalper it is impossible.  Scalpers use a program here to find out when the iphones will go on sale at the online store and then automaticly reserves as many as they want with in seconds.  Whats more sad is that there are people who are able to purchase many times with the same apple id.  I feel by the time I am able to reserve one that it will be close to the time the new iphone is released.  What is the point!!!!  If I want to buy one from canada I need to pay Canadian tax, shipping, insurance, and chinese tax for recieving a luxury item.  It is impossible to get an iphone in china with out paying the grey market price which is double of the regular price in alot of cases.  I give up!!!!!   I will just buy a different phone from another company, unless someone knows a way to make a reservation.  everytime I go online to check to see if there is one available it says the system is down do to high triffic.  why would there be high traffic 24 hours a day,  because scalpers have there programs checking the sight 24 hours a day.

    You can buy an iPhone without an AT&T subsidy or contract, but the prices are $499 (8GB), $599 (16GB), $699 (32GB). The iPhone (sold in the US) is configured to work only with wireless service provided by AT&T. It won't work in the RP. Also, nothing in the iPhone will work until activated with AT&T.

  • Question about buying an iPhone online

    Hi there. I would like advice regarding buying an iPhone 6 thru third-party sites such as Ebay or Amazon.
    I have heard that if the person fail to turn off the Find my iPhone feature it might "lock" the phone and it will render it unusable with the one buying. is this true?
    Surely if the phone has been factory reset can i not use it again as normal and use all the features?
    Also, i'm on O2. As stupid as it may sound but would a "locked" phone be better than an unlocked iPhone in relation to the above query?
    Please advice. Thanks.

    No, because unlocked does NOT mean this.  If someone sells a phone as unlocked, it means that it is not locked to any particular carrier, so you can use any sim card in that phone.  It does NOT mean the same as activation lock, which is a security feature on the phone to prevent theft and is totally different from the carrier lock.
    Also, E-bay is not a legitimate source to purchase an iPhone.  If you are in the UK and you want to purchase an iPhone, then go directly to any Apple store in the UK and buy one or go to the UK carrier stores, such as 02, EE, 3 or Vodafone and buy one from there.  Note, that if you buy the phone through the carriers, it will not be unlocked and you will have to take out a contract with them, so you cannot use any sim card in the phone.  If you buy directly from an Apple store, then you can buy an unlocked phone and you can then get a sim only contract with the carriers and can change carrier and use any sim card in the phone.

  • HT4061 How long is a guarantee if I buy an iphone online?

    I want to buy an unlocked iphone as a present for Christmas.  How long does the guarantee last if I do?  Can the person then buy themselves phone insurance if they wish? 
    Thanks

    The manufacturers standard one year warranty on a new phone is the same no matter how you buy it (as long as it is from a legitimate source: Apple online store, Apple retail store, authorised Apple reseller or authorised network provider).
    Anyone can buy phone insurance if they wish.
    Insurance is not the same as a manufacturers warranty.
