Once you receive the phone, don't activate it until you call AT&T and they can switch lines over the phone. Your dad needs to be available due to it being his account.

Is is the same for Verizon or no? I used my dads number on the apple site to order because he had the upgrade on his line. Couldn't I just activate on the Verizon website as a replacement phone for my line?
 
So is this correct or not, the White AT&T 16GB is not on the list with known serials, because no one has his tracking # on ups yet?

I've ordered at 2:24CST, right now the status is "preparing for shiping" and it doesn't show up on UPS no matter what reference I use.
Nothing in the apple support profile as well.

Not worried, just curious.
 
Today my iPhone 5 32gb black verizon changed to preparing for shipment. I wish I could get a tracking number now but none of my phone numbers work on either fedex or ups when using track by reference, anyone know what needs to happen in order for that to start working?

You just have to wait until a tracking number is assigned. The phone number trick only works on UPS, as far as I know.

That's correct. My 16gb black is showing up on the support site, but not my 16gb white.
 
Just to clarify those who are confused...

1. Apple has not officialy set any Order Status to Shiped yet. The most current status you can have is Prepared for Shipment.

2. To find you're tracking number, go to UPS, track be reference, and enter the number associated with your BILLING INFORMATION You can also search by you're Apple order number (W***) minus the last two numbers of the order.

3. At this point no one has said anything about tracking through Fedex, so I would throw that out completely. Sorry folks, it seems to be UPS this time around.

4. iPhone 5s currently seem to be showing up 1) Leaving China 2) In Nashville 3) In Illinois . These seem to be the main 3 places

5. If you're order is still processing, don't panic. Many users have not have their status updates until the day of launch.

Hope this helps anyone confused. Glad we can all be apart of this together!
 
i'm sorry but I'm late to this party (only about 62 pages late :p). Can someone please tell me how to find out my tracking number? Thanks!

Last year same thing happened some came from China, and some shipped 2 day, that were here in the states.
 
I've been reading posts and I see that there is no logic to the shipping order. I've seen people who ordered after me and are able to track theirs... I'm still not able to track or view at Support Profile page. Ordered it at 3:20am EST...

Back to the waiting game... Maybe after WWE Night of Champions... :rolleyes:
im watching to!! lol
 
Ayee my iPhone 5 White ATT 16GB model just showed up on apple's website. The last few letters are DTTP. Glad it's making progress!

Same here...
 
Mine is still processing with a 10/5 delivery date. I did order a little late at 7:45 CST. I guess I can always hope it gets here early, but not going to expect it.
