Did anyone else have an issue with Apple during the preparing for shipment stage? Mine prepared for shipment monday afternoon and Apple charged my card...today on friday, the charge disappeared completely...

I dont think this is a good sign
 
I think something is telling me to stay a way from :apple: BS

Chula Vista, CA, United States 10/03/2014 2:42 P.M.

The receiver was not available at the time of the first delivery attempt. A second attempt will be made ( Monday ).

Thank you UPS from Chula Vista :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:
 
Crap... :(

Did you call UPS? Are you on the east coast?

I'm in northeast Florida. I can't keep sitting around waiting for this phone. I was lucky to get to work from home today so I could sign for it. If it gets delayed until Monday I won't have a way of getting it. Oh well. :(

I don't blame you! If you don't get it today, you will definitely get it before or on Monday for sure! Have a great weekend!
 
My phone has been stuck in Louisville on Import Scan it's almost been a whole 24 hours and no update :(
It still has a scheduled delivery for today 10/3/14 can anyone help !

Mine was the same but it magically appeared here local this morning. It will either show up tonight or tracking hasn't updated and u will have to wait til Monday. Did u have an original delivery of 10/2?
 
I think the most frustrating part of it is that by leaving a customer's order in "preparing for shipment" for this long you realize they aren't actually preparing anything. It is, in fact, still being processed. The frustration comes from realizing that Apple is only putting the order in "prepare for shipment" mode so they can charge your card and lock in your order.

To be honest I doubt my phone has even been manufactured yet.
 
preparing to ship

I also called apple today because the pre-authorization also fell off my card and apple told me not to worry as they already have the authorization from the pre-authorization and it will be fine
 
I sure hope so. I hope you have a great weekend as well. :)

Don't worry, my friend.

They will arrive, and you'll tell us how great your new device is... It's just a matter of time. I hope I will get mine by tomorrow... Last chance, Monday... If I don't get it before Tuesday... Well... It's no phone for Commander Skipper.

So let's cross some fingers, hehehe...
 
Well, I just ordered a pizza. If my iPhone doesn't get here before the pizza I guess I won't be getting it.

Yeah it was actually for 10/1 then it went to 10/3 but no updates. I'm guessing I shouldn't rely on the tracking system? Have you gotten your phone? :)
 
Can someone please answer this for me, i ordered a 6+ but it wont come in until nov 7, i found one at a store and want to know if i cancel will i be able to order the one at my local store within 5 mins? }

Yes I got it today. Mine was originally 10/2 then 10/3. I never got a departure scan from Louisville it just was in Tulsa all the sudden. I just think there is so much going on that the tracking is screwed up

I've seen others cancel and have their upgrade available in just a few minutes. U may have to call ur carrier after u cancel and make them update it.
 
It's after 8:00pm now and still no iPhone. I'm getting ready to give up on this for today. The frustrating thing is that it's going to be extremely difficult to get it next week since I will have to be at work every day. Oh well.

Call Apple and ask if they can update your delivery address and have it re-routed to you job for delivery on Monday. Im sure there is something they can do especially if you will not be home to receive it.

Go for it go in store get them to get it out and harass them to reset it at least you will have the phone in hand n waiting
 
I received my 6+ earlier today from UPS in Oklahoma! Very happy with it; I hope that you all receive yours without much delay! :)
 
So pissed right now. At work all day watching tracking. Right now it says:

Location Date Local Time Activity
Louisville, KY, United States 10/03/2014 7:35 A.M. The UPS Proactive Response intercept for your package was completed. / Delivery will be rescheduled for Saturday.
10/03/2014 7:16 A.M. Severe weather conditions have delayed delivery. / Delivery will be rescheduled for Saturday.
10/03/2014 6:16 A.M. We've missed the scheduled transfer time. This may cause a delay. / Delivery will be rescheduled for Saturday.

Come home to delivery notice on my door and rescheduled for Monday. On hold to complain right now although I know it will be pointless.

What exactly is the point in tracking?

What I would do in your case is to wait for the one I really want. If you rush just to have any, you could end up getting a device which is not likely to satisfy your daily usage. Think about this: 16 GB now a days are not really a great space to store photos, videos, games and all sort of apps. Definitely is something to think very carefully. I would stick to the plan to get the best one, even if I have to wait a while to get it... A friend's advice.
