People’s delayed iPad Pro 4th gen
I ordered an the iPad Pro 4th gen last Sunday and I was reading through the forums and is it most likely I will experience the same delays? Or has things decided to shift and have products pushed fast...
- 6 years agoHello Momonkey76
I foresee us getting them at the end of this month or end of Aug at this point. When I ordered mine ok the 24th via Telus? I checked out Apple ( same model and all) and their website showed 3-4 weeks ( July 15th- Aug 5th delivery. So it seems like it would be the same time for us. I heard Telus is getting 2 batches in July so who knows if that’s true.

Hello Momonkey76
Jesus. That's ridiculous. No other email other then the first confirmation?.
So I contacted Apple and they said anyone who order early June with them? Got them already and those are the same units as Telus is offering.
So Apple can supply then faster to their customers but Telus is having difficulties. Their 6-8 week is just based on what they get told BUT they shouldn't be offering the tablet if they is almost 2-3 months wait time.
I wonder why no Telus Rep can shine light regarding the no communication... BrandonT can you explain? It's ending of July so there isn't any excuse at this point of " not many are working". If that's true, why just make it clear on their website that no one will get into contact with you. I walked passed the Telus building downtown Toronto which has the call center and I can assure you that building was busy and I even asked a couple of them outside and they said and I quote " most are coming back to work or work from home. There are only a few which aren't working".

- Laurenz6 years agoOrganizerWell I’m in luck my parents asked a bell store if they carried any and luckily they did so I got the iPad I recommend u guys go to your local malls to see if they carry any iPad pros and just cancel your orders best regards to the rest of u guys

So did Apple just cease production of these or what? 😅
- Laurenz6 years agoOrganizer**bleep** week 7 and still no update what is this 😂😂
- Momonkey766 years agoOrganizer
10 weeks today. Still no update.
- Laurenz6 years agoOrganizerWell let’s just hope most people cancel their order cause to be honest if they call us asking if it’s cool to give us another colour I couldn’t careless I just need this iPad 😂😂 and the silver one is much nicer anyways but likely of that happening is very slim

I checked with Bell and they haven't received any form Apple since early June. So it seems to be a issue with Apple bit supplying the carriers the tablets more then the carriers having them.
I spoke to Apple regarding a issue I had and asked them about the tablet. They said they have had some unhappy customers call them too regarding the wait. Apparently Apple is having issues supplying the 12.9 LTE models to carriers and to their own stores too.
At this point I got a couch I ordered back in April faster then this tablet and the couch wasn't ever in production before that. So km starting to think Apple is having issues and not telling anyone...
I'm also with you on how Telus isn't communicating either. The least they could do is send out a email and reply back. Laziness. - Wynn6 years agoOrganizerNope, still no shipping email. And still no response to my emails that I sent 2 weeks ago. It’s been 8 weeks as of yesterday, website still says I should receive my iPad within 3-4 weeks.
I’m starting to mind the waiting a bit more now. I’m really starting to wish I had just ordered directly from Apple at this point. I don’t know what else to say other than this really sucks, and Telus is awful at communicating with their customers. - Meowmix6 years agoAmbassadorHello Laurenz
So Ashley Furniture called me regarding my couch order from late March I did.. They just told me it's in their warehouse and delivery is next week. This took almost 4.5 months to get. ( brand new couch which was never in production before and a new model).
Apple? Still has issues building the new IPad 12.9 and sending then out. Still waiting at 6-8 weeks lol. So who truly knows haha.
Let's hope I get both next week to enjoy! Lol - Laurenz6 years agoOrganizerFunny how Telus is called Telus but they ain’t telling us a anything little dad joke to make u guys feel a little better about our VERY VERY LATE iPads
- Laurenz6 years agoOrganizerIf anyone has updates please post them here for the 12.9 inch IPad Pro thank u guys 🙂
- Laurenz6 years agoOrganizerI mean if the 11inch got shipped out the 12.9 inch should of been shipped out too, no?? Like I get it high demand but like a whole month ago and some change so I should have shipping at least. I hope anyone that got the 12.9 inch got the shipping info
- Meowmix6 years agoAmbassadorHello NewTelusCustomerxx
Sure seems like it. Seems like many got the 12.9 inch instead so the demand are in those ones!
I'm glad you're got shipped out! Enjoy it 🙂 - NewTelusCustomerxx6 years agoNeighbour
I also ordered the 11 inch! I got my shipping confirmation last night & it is currently out for delivery. I ordered on June 24th so it took exactly a month. I guess the 12.9 inch was in higher demand than the 11 inch, causing the delays to be much longer.
- Actionjax6 years agoOrganizerI ordered the 11 inch. What model did you order?
Sent from my iPhone - Momonkey766 years agoOrganizerUmmm... I ordered May 21 and you ordered June 7. I’m wondering how I haven’t gotten an update yet? I’m in Ontario - is that a reason perhaps?
- Actionjax6 years agoOrganizerJust woke up to an email that my device has shipped. Should see it in a few days I guess. Tracking number not populating yet.
- Meowmix6 years agoAmbassadorHello Laurenz
LOL! Yeah I would be doing the same thing too and snap lol. It happened with my iPhone 7 Plus actually. I got it from Apple and the screen was cracked. The Apple store Rep just looked at me and yeah that look I'll never forget. Let's all just hope they come in, in working condition without any problems 😂 - Meowmix6 years agoAmbassadorMomonkey76
Well if Telus lacks communication what are we supposed to do?. Why have a product online showing " in stock limited availability ( 6-8 week wait) when it's truly not in stock? U see what I mean?.
Also when Telus fails to send out biweekly emails to let customers know what's happening. That's what is upsetting most. The lack of communication from them. They could easily have a email scripted to send out each week or two until the tablets come in right?. That's better then 0 replies and no communications at all. While everyone's working from home and such, the webstore team receives and sends out emails. They could easily reply back within a couple of days or week but they haven't even done that.
Every Rep I spoke to? I was always kind with just one which kept calling me " mam" and tried to overtalk ontop of me lol. The managers I spoke to o even said that telus webstore shouldn't have it shows " in stock" and surprised that the webstore team hasn't emailed anyone back. I actually had one Rep that read this thread while I was online with her and she was surprised. - Meowmix6 years agoAmbassadorHello @ Wynn
I said that out of frustration on this matter however that doesn't give a excuse of " they don't know" right?. They are a telecommunications company. They could easily send out a biweekly email giving updates. Even if it's the same thing or saying " unfortunately at the moment Apple has not shipped us the IPad for u". That would be a better communication then 0 replies back. Look at Rogers. With all due respect? They are actually emailing customers and have a agent that gave someone a answer online and asked then to message then privately to look into it. So why can't Telus do this?
Why can't they even reply back to the emails? Even if they don't know. Why haven't they made the effort to reply back to anyone?. It seems like they want to use the " pandemic"
I need the tablet for work as well and my old ipads battery is dying within an 1-2hrs. I won't dish out money to get a new battery for it since I am getting a new one. I'm not blaming Telus for the delay. The delay happened on Apple because of the COVID-19. However I do blame Telus for the lack of communication and responses back to us.
