Verizon iPhone 5 Preorder Status Thread

I ordered Black 32GB on 10/31. Got shipment notification today from Verizon. Should be here tomorrow or Thursday. FedEx 2-day. Was told ships by 11/16. Hope this helps!

Woo Hoo phone has been delivered!!!!! Finally the wait is over. Can't wait to get home and play with my new phone #

Ordered iphone 5 white 16GB on 10/22.
Just got FedEx tracking and should be at my door on 11/08. I'm pleasantly surprised considering my expected ship date was 11/16.

Just a heads up. I ordered a black 32 gb and white 16 FB on 10/26 and never had an order update. Just got off the phone with Verizon and he said my order didn't go through. After it went to fraud it fell off and nothing I can do but reorder them. Luckily tomorrow is the last day to still have ship date of 11/16. Sucks I've been waiting for nothing.

I just got a tracking number!

I ordered 3 Iphone 5's 32gig (2black, 1white) on Oct 30th, with an estimated shipping date of Nov 16th.

I just got the tracking number this afternoon, with an estimated delivery date of Nov 8th

Got my tracking number and my phone should be here on the 8th! Very excited! Now to see if I can exchange/trade my black Mini for a white one...

I tired to do that a while back and Verizon said they can't do early upgrades for iPhones per apple's request. But it never hurts to call and ask. Verizon cs people are usually pretty cool.

Yeah. I forgot to mention that I want to try the "Verizon Loophole" to keep my Unlimited Data Plan that I have now. I have 1 phone lines, my dad's phone, that's a "dummy" phone that has the upgrade eligible on 12/02/12. I want to upgrade his line to iPhone 5, order it, have to put a data plan on his number, have the iPhone 5 shipped to me, go to Verizon to activate new phone under my phone number and put his dummy phone back on his number, and remove the data plan from his number. Anyone know if this will work?

I'll try calling them tomorrow to see if they can do an early upgrade since it's not an Apple to Apple upgrade, technically.

The 8th! Can't wait!

Maybe this week? seems like Verizon just received iPhone 5 shipment from Apple. just chill out haha my status message suddenly changed @ around 8 PM PST.

I ordered two 16gb iPhones (black and white) on 11/02. Estimated ship date is 11/16, was told by Verizon on the phone that they don't have black iPhones in stock because of which they won't ship before 11/16. Hopefully the rep was wrong and I'll get the phones early.

they might extend shipping date to 11/30

the ones i ordered for the 9th delivery should be delivered today see they have 11/16 shipments once i get these and sale them off today ill order 3 more hopefully i get them next week as well.

Something changed. I now have two + sign radio buttons but when I click on them all it tells me is "Your order will ship by 11/16/2012." There is a spot for Courier and Ship date which are both blank...

No that makes sense, I was just curious. I actually was wondering because I was thinking about getting a black mini at some point and wanted to make sure you didn't have some flaws that I didn't know about.

Got my phone yesterday and I'm loving it!!!!
