Apple Store iPhone 6 Plus 64 GB Space Gray Orders stuck on PROCESSING....

[stephen1108]

I ordered 64 GB Space Grey 6+ (Carrier: AT&T, just a 2 yr renewal) at 2:57 CST (which was as soon as I could get in they Apple app). In ordering process it said 9/19 for deliver date, then I got bumped back to 10/1-10/6 delivery when I finally got thru. Currently hanging out in processing status. *sigh*

Ok so it looks like you made it riiiiight outside of the cut-off time for launch day supplies of the 64 GB Space Gray Plus I don't want you to feel like you're singled out, but I'm not gonna add you to the list since your phone isn't a 9/19 delivery date. Although you have the same exact model as the rest of us, we're all expecting our phone on launch day and we're tryna figure out what's caused this delay in moving to "Preparing for shipment"

It really REALLY does suck that you got pushed back almost 2 weeks by the time you were done with check out

So that's 3:24 EST right? Lemme add you to the master list.

So it appears these orders are going to "Preparing for shipment" in reverse of the time ordered.

Stephen1108 your confirm was 3:24 EST too right? You should be getting an update soon

 

[spazma7ik]

I ordered right around 1230am PST on the opening night and initially got 'Preparing for Shipment' on Sunday, then reverted back to 'Processing Items' on Sunday night. I just NOW went to 'Preparing for Shipment' once again..

Still not showing in my support profile though or no Tracking No.

Yup. I literally ordered as soon as the app would let me. It failed and timed out a couple times, but ended up working then. My wife got through 10 minutes later, ordered a white 6+ and hers was preparing for shipment Saturday eve.

I ordered at almost the exact same time. I got my order in at 12:56am PDT and am getting mine the 19th. My 64gb att space gray model kept showing as unavailable so I kept jamming on the button until it finally said available for delivery on the 19th.

Wow you barely made the cut!!

So are you in processing or preparing for shipment?

 

[bgdrew]

I ordered a GSM 6+, 64gb @ 3:30am. Scheduled deliver of 9/19. But, mine is a silver and I'm in the same boat. It's processing for shipment but hasn't been picked up by FedEx or UPS yet and not on my support profile.

You're not in the same boat lol, yours is preparing for shipment, so you're fine. Ours are just "Processing Items".

This problem seems to be limited exclusively to the Space Gray 64 GB AT&T i6 Plus models.

 

[noobinator]

Preparing for shipment. I even have it listed on my profile and have found a UPS tracking number.

 

[Devlonc]

I ordered a space grey 64gb ip6 at 0730 on Friday morning from Apple and it's Preparing for Shipment currently.

Great!! I'll add you to the list, but grayed out, since you do apply, but you're not in the "Processing" boat ☺️ The info you provided actually helps prove the theory we have at hand!

You're right, I'll copy the info as is and paste it here for those who haven't checked the OP.

-------------------

Compiling the information presented by members experiencing the same problem in this thread, I came up with this:

All orders listed were made on 9/12 when pre-orders kicked off, they all have 9/19 delivery dates, and I'm assuming they're all AT&T GSM iPhone 6 Plus 64 GB Space Gray models.

fossen: 3:26 EST

All times in AM. Greyed out orders were done later on in the night.

There's a consistent trend here time wise with the exception of rollerbones' order. All the early orders are still stuck in processing. This leads us to believe that the early orders' stock is already in the US, and they're not coming from China. Hence why they haven't been prepped for shipping yet and are still in the processing stage!

Just to add, I'm not 100% positive on the exact minute I ordered but I did get an email confirmation at 1:01 am. I placed my order and checked my email very soon afterwards (not more than 4-5 minutes) so it was 12:55-12:57 I'm guessing. iPhone 6 Plus 64gb Space Gray AT&T

Ahhhhh ok, well, you made the cut! That's what counts in the end

I'm glad that this is all coming together. I'm REALLY glad I made this thread now, because our complaints about still being stuck in processing was getting lost in the other threads.

Here we can compile all the data and update in real time as our orders change from Processing to Preparing for shipment!
