View attachment 728375 Hi everyone good morning I woke up and decided to check the UPS website under tracking by reference number and found that my ATT 256 gig space gray iphone X has shipped from Foxconn. Apple's website still shows that my phone is preparing to ship. I do this every year and I found out this simple trick on the forum here

For those of you that are not familiar with doing this here's how you can check your order.

Go to UPS's website. Go to tracking. Go to track by reference number. Put the cell phone number associated with your order in as the reference number. Put your ZIP Code. Put your country. Hit track package button. If your phone has shipped it'll come up on UPS's website.

I checked last night and my phone still wasn't showing up on UPS website. I just woke up at 4 AM Pacific time and decided to check again and it shows my phone has shipped and will be here by end of day on November 3. Oh and it's coming from China

Good luck I hope everybody can find their phones. This happens every year where Apple says it still preparing to ship yet you can track it through UPS

I hope this helps

And for those nonbelievers there's a pic

Also you should check your profile on Apple to see if it showing up in your devices yet I haven't done that yet but I just remembered about that
Nothing here yet
 
Still nothing here

Did anyone order through the Apple Store app for Att Next?

All I got was a reservation # and nothing after. I ordered at 3:15 am eastern, and at this point Apple has nothing to say but wait.

I have never been this frustrated over trying to order something before. Especially considering I’m seeing people getting preparing to ship notifications already.

Guess I stayed up late for nothing. Unbelievable.
When I was ordering my husband’s phone I first got the reservation thing but then Apple reconnected to the AT&T server and completed the order. Got an order number and email. However he’s still getting emails about the reservation member.
 
Dstopsie tracking system hint worked like a charm.
My 64 SG is in China. Scheduled deliver 11/3 by end of day

Like many others I used apple app and had no problem. In at x:03 and out at x:04 even using the att verification feature

Good luck all,
Mike

Yeah!!!! So glad you were able to find your phone. I to use the Apple Store app and had no problem buying the phone as I saved it in my favorites and used Apple pay to pay for it
 
Shipping : Nov 3rd, T-Mobile

Paid in full but order is still in progress is it ok or something wrong? :(
 
Now are you using destination. Country and zip and tn as reference?

You can go to UPS's website and sign up for My choice. It's free and then allows you to track your packages. If there's a delivery coming to you it will notify you. But once your phone shipped you should be able to find it using the method I said. Just may be that your phone hasn't shipped just check periodically through the day if I will definitely ship this weekend if it has November 3 delivery day

Iup orders here that is PFS... I haven’t been charged yet. Is that normal?

See my prior post on being able to track your phone through UPSes website even though apple still says preparing to ship.
 
I've created a little document document to keep track of orders. Maybe people here al also interested to fill it ?

I ordered through the AT&T next program on the Apple Store app and completed my transaction with in a minute. Have no problem whatsoever and I got a 256 gig space gray for ATT. I have saved the phone in my favorites and use Apple Pay to pay for it and it went very quickly
Same here - I have always used ATT NEXT via Apple Store to order my 6+, 7+, and X. I also got launch day delivery with the exception of last year where it was scheduled to be delivered on Launch day but a damn typhoon delayed it by one day. Let's hope for better weather this year in the Pacific :)

I am going to quit looking at the Spreadsheet for now .. tx for you're input.
People seem to like it to delete all the info or type random stuff in it ... to bad :-(

Anyone with a 11/17-11/24 date see date moved up yet? I don’t know how I got such a late date, complete order via app at 3:06am est got conf email at 3:08am this is on att next but everything flowed thru perfectly. Had issues with my wife’s order getting verification from att but not mine. And she has the same shipping window as mine
