Upgrading Phone Preorder Issue

[L-C]

I placed a pre-order for the new iPhone this morning, but had to cancel it since I needed to update the shipping address. When I went to re-purchase the phone an hour later, I was no longer able to upgrade my line despite receiving confirmation my order is canceled. I spoke to a rep and they said I would have to wait for this to fully process. I'm reading online that it can take days to process. This is so frustrating. It looks like I will purchase from another retailer, such as Apple. Has anyone else had luck with purchasing somewhere else with this situation?

legit having the exact same problem. i preordered at 7am, then realized my account had a bogus shipping address listed in the order, so i got a chat support rep to cancel it. now when i go to try to re-order, it tells me i have a pending order on my account.

there's no pending orders, just the canceled one. hopwever, when i look at my upcoming bill [the next bill, not my current one due], they've added the monthly charges for the new phone's payment plan as well as a bunch of other charges i did not ask for. the support chat reps just keep bouncing me around to different departments, between sales and back to CS, and no one is seeing anything pending on my account, but the issue is still there. this is beyond frustrating and i'm ready to switch carriers if i have to pay a bill for a phone i don't even have.

Exact same thing happened to me, even though the customer service agent who cancelled my original order assured me that I would be able to go back into my account and reorder the phone that I wanted. Really angry, and ready to switch all 5 Verizon lines that I have to another carrier.

Having the same issue. I have spoken to over 10 agents...none were able to figure out how to get it removed. Been a customer 15+ yrs, and i will move to a different carrier if its not fixed TODAY. Spent hours on this already

@vzw_customer_support  Where do I authenticate it?

This is ridiculous. This is the exact same garbage I'm going through right now. I've spoken with 6 people over several hours. I cannot accept terms and conditions on my pre-order and the account is on HOLD.
