Does anyone know if Verizon will give out a form of tracking? I still have my pre-order confirmation number, and I can put that in to check the status, but it still says "your order has been received and is being processed" with a date of 9/21 on it. It's possible that mine hasn't shipped yet, but I saw someone say that Verizon doesn't allow you to track your package. Did anybody who ordered through Verizon last year get a tracking number?
Also, I live in an apartment style dorm building. We have people at the front desk 24/7 who take packages and sort them for each student. Will they be alright signing for my package?

Same with mine. Weird, I did not expect any of them to be in the US yet.

I ordered from both Apple and Verizon and my Apple iPhone has shipped but I have not received anything from Verizon at all.
Check the Verizon sticky at the top of the forum that's why they're there.
----------
Check the stickied AT&T thread. Last year I never got any tracking updates. I got a tracking number, but it's first update was the day my phone delivered (launch day).
It found my package on UPS with both my billing phone number and AT&T order number, but not all details were available yet. I'll take this as a good sign though, I was a bit worried since I ordered at 7:30am Pacific, and then had to call to confirm my identity which I didn't do until 10:30am Pacific due to work.
I see mine us on the way! Its a 64GB white GSM version. I got it ordered at about 20 after midnight.
The line that I upgraded didnt show the status but the main phone number on the account pulled it up. Try all the phone numbers you have!
Delivering to AZ.

Last year, I ordered the 4S when it was first available for preorder and I was able to track mine. I didn't get a tracking email from Verizon until two days before it was delivered, but I think I remember finding it before that with the reference number.
No but in the past few hours the backorder status changed from 1 to 0. No other info yet. ATT told me they would be shipping them Fedex overnight.
My tracking number is showing TWO packages, both weighing 0.90lbs?! I only ordered one phone though...

Someone make me feel better and tell me they ordered right when preorders started, but still can not view their tracking info by searching by reference...
Did you get a 16GB?
If so, it appears those are already in the US and require less travel time, that's why it hasn't been located on UPS. My 16GB still does not come up on UPS, but is "pending shipping" on Apple's website.
I've got the same.
Why would my phone number + zip return TWO packages with the same tracking number?
Anyone else getting this? As far as I know I only ordered one iPhone 5.
I got my order in with apple at 14 after for a 32GB and mine still hasn't shipped. Perhaps some of the 32's are in the US as well...
Perhaps i'm not doing it right.

FedEx ships all over the world. I'm on the West Coast, everything I order from Apple.com that originates from China, is routed through customs in Alaska, then on to California.
Best of all, Apple ships FedEx overnight by 10:30 am next day. It's nice to not have to wait until late in the day.
