Originally ordered through Verizon - then Apple - canceled all orders.

Best Buy took orders for less than a week - 9/23-9/27 (I believe).

We ordered with them - received two iPhone 6+'s (64GB) in 5 days.

Our BB store had plenty of stock for people walking right in. - Just FYI. However, they will not share over the phone that they have inventory; we were told they always tell people that call in that they don't have any.

With contract?
 
I don't know what UPS did, but THANK YOU! Ever since Wednesday night, Thursday morning my phone has been on a one way ticket to be delivered. Here is a brake down of my experience so far for those who are waiting.

So as you can see, once it hit the states, it screamed to get here. It seems like UPS got their stuff in gear, I have a feeling the thousands of calls they were receiving might have actually made a difference, but it's just speculation.

Anyway, happy to be receiving my phone today, 3 days earlier than Apple guesstimated, and 2 weeks earlier than originally promised. Hope this helps anyone else out there waiting. I'll be honest I didn't think I would get it till Monday due to it not getting into KY until this morning, but they had some hustle in them today. :)
 
Oops

A team member just got a notice that they put my phone on the WRONG PLANE out of Louisville.... You couldn't make this stuff up... Now it is saying a 2 business day delay... Losing my mind over here...

Ugh..I feel your pain. This entire experience has been horrible.
 
What does this mean?

Can someone tell me why I'm showing an "early delivery" date and then and "original delivery" date. Does that mean that the phone will be here on the 9th for early delivery or will it be delivered on the 14th?
I really hope it's the 9th because the 13th I will be flying to Miami and it would suck to not have the phone for another two weeks! Lol Screen Shot 2014-10-03 at 10.34.02 AM.png
 
Am I the only one on the A-team still waiting for a departure scan out of KY? :(

I wish they would just update mine with the same already. I'm pretty sure mine will be delayed until tomorrow as well. But seeing that on the screen would make me feel a little more secure. :p

Hey, I got the exact same thing. I think we should have it at the latest by next Friday. What phone have you ordered? and where do you live?

----------

I have been in preparing for 3 days. And I was in processing for 15 days
I think apple moved us to preparing stage to Stop us from changing our mind and buying Note 4 which was released today

I really hope you get your phone. Don't go over to the dark side. Mine shipped today. Keep the hope alive.

Hi, shayshay02:

When I first entered this thread, I started to look at the tracking info that some members were publishing, and realized that that info was pretty much the same that mine. So I started to name each of us in each post, and we finally became the "A Team". Currently, most of us can say that our phones are together, stuck in Louisville due to bad weather.
Z team is a way that one of our fellow members refers to his own tracking information because he hasn't seen any movement for his phone, but hopefully things will start to move soon.
I know this can be a little weird and everything, but we actually have had a great time posting news about our tracking information to give hope to others.
Welcome to the blog, I hope you enjoy reading it as I have!

Sincerely,

Commander Skipper (Yeah, I that's me, LOL)

Aww thanks for explaining. I have been reading it for a while and just decided to join. I also think I am on the Z team because my phone just shipped today and its still in China

Anyone in the OCT-31-NOV 7th group ????

Ordered on OCT 2nd
6+ SG 64gb at&t

Close. I ordered 6+ Gold 64GB on 9/26 and my estimated dates are Oct. 27-Nov3.

My wife ordered a 6 on the same day and hers is delivering by next Wednesday.

The wait is killing me.
 
Mine says it will be delivered today even though this was the last scan:

Louisville, KY, United States 10/03/2014 3:51 A.M. Import Scan
 
Yippee! Yahooey!! My phone as of 8 am is on truck and out for delivery! Thank you all again for the company on this wild ride. The pre-sign delivery note is in place. Going to try and stop and check at lunch.
 
Even though I got a message saying my package will be later today, I just got an update saying that my package will actually be on Monday.

*sigh*

I have felt your pain. I got 3 emails saying that I would get my phone on these respective days. But no dice. I will get mine today finally.
 
Does anyone know if there is anyone left that ordered on the 12th that hasn't received their phone or at least a tracking number? Please tell me they have finally finished processing orders from the first day of preorders!
