It worked for me, too. You do have to tap call as if you were calling. The text that came didn't make a sound. I did find an answer though when I checked. Unfortunately, I'm not eligible for an upgrade until June. Oh well.

Hello:
No, the person who reported that the *639# code does not work is correct.

I wanted to be sure about my upgrade status, and get no message back after entering the code.

I tried several times to no avail.

You have to be sure to enter *639# and be sure to put the * at the
bbeginning and the # at the end. I suspect you are not putting the #
at the end and that you are only dialing *639.

Hope this helps,
Jim

Hello Everyone,

I went into the A T & T Wireless store a few hours ago to see if I am
eligible for an upgrade. Somehow I knew I wouldn't be but I just wanted
to
confirm (Smile).  Not that it matters as I have decided to purchase
iPhone
5.

I was amazed at the fact that the store was jam-packed with customers.
While I no longer frequent the A T & T Wireless or Verizon Wireless
stores
as much as I used to, I visit enough to have been truly surprised. There
was a waiting list to enter the store.

I asked the receptionist why the store was so busy and she said it was
because of all the people who are pre-ordering iPhone 5.

It would appear that not everyone was underwhelmed by Apple's keynote
presentation.

After leaving the store, I decided to go over to the Verizon Wireless
store
and, it too, was jam-packed with people preordering.

All I can say is that there appears to be something magical about the
Apple-effect, as I have come to think of it.

By the way, I decided not to wait at the A T & T wireless store.  The
receptionist reminded me that I can check to see if I am eligible for an
upgrade by doing the following from my iPhone:

1.
Open the Phone App.

2.
Switch to the Dial Pad.

3.
Dial *639#

4.
Tap the Call button. By the way, 6 3 9 spells the word NEW. You will
receive a text message stating your eligibility status.
