Apple has egg on its face as Apple Card snafu pushed back iPhone 13 delivery times
Apple Card issue might have forced some customers to accept a later delivery date for their iPhone 13 Pro or 13 Pro Max model.
Apple responded on social media by stating, “Some Apple Card Customers are temporarily unable to make iPhone Upgrade purchases using their Apple Card. If you’ve completed your purchase with a different card, you’ll still get your 3% Daily Cash for this purchase. We’ll email you the details later,” supposedly tweeted an Apple support agent. Those attempting to use the Apple Card multiple times ended up receiving multiple error notices.

This had to be frustrating during a morning that is usually known for being hectic at best. And missing an opportunity to complete a transaction early in the morning could have pushed back the date when you will receive your new handset into October. If this happened to you today, perhaps you’ll feel better by getting this off of your chest by leaving us your experience in the comments section below.
Some iPhone models won’t be delivered until the second or third week in October
Sure, most iPhone buyers are very impatient but if you had the entire transaction already planned out and you started early enough in the day to get a September 24th delivery date, we can’t stress enough how it would suck to have your order pushed back because of an issue that was not only beyond your control, but was apparently Apple’s fault.
The saying that “Man plans and God laughs” is also valid when it comes to pre-ordering a new iPhone. To avoid this in the future, you should have a second method of payment ready when you begin the pre-order process.
If you ended up an unwitting victim of the Apple Card fiasco today, we are hopeful that you can put it behind you; just look ahead to the day when the delivery man rolls up to your front door with your brand new Apple iPhone 13 series model whether that is a week from today or more than a month from today.
