I also experienced difficulty at every step but was eventually successful. Some errors included inability to apply for T-Mobile payments option. This was unresolvable, even with T-Mobile agent on the line. They couldn’t get access to ordering either. Applying for Apple interest free payments impossible due to date of birth window consistently malfunctioning, barring ability to continue. I applied for Apple credit card option, and was ready to pay in full as last resort. I tangled with application errors but got approved. Then there were errors connecting to wallet. Oy. Wells fargo helped there. Finally back to order and got it completed after 90 minutes of efforts. Sadly of how this speaks to me, I was overjoyed. Expected delivery date stated: October 3-10.
