just got off phone with premier customer support...she told me that my order has already been completed and ready to ship even though my EST is 10-13/10-22...it's an 6+ Space Gray 128 GB ordered 3:31 am 09/12...she told me that i would have my phone friday....so that's something i guess....also i see no info on the UPS tracker

I placed my order 13 minutes before you did for a 6+ 64GB Space Gray with the exact estimated ship date. Hope I'm on the same boat as you. :)

----------

I can confirm from AT&T that my iPhone 6+ 64G Space Gray that was ordere around 15 minutes after the AT&T store opened has shipped. My order on their site says shipping 10/13 - 10/22. It had previously been longer than that but moved up a few days ago to that range.

Anyways, customer service confirmed it shipped. Seems they were under promising on date ranges.

I was three minutes behind you. Hope they shipped mine as well.
 
Mine still say this...but I was charged the $427 the other day so, which if I remember correctly is the key to know if your going to get it on Friday. Last year, I never got a tracking number, the phone just showed up the day of the launch. So, if your not charged by now you may be screwed.

iPhone 6 (128GB Silver)DataPro Enterprise 5GB with Tethering for iPhone on 4G LTE
Preorder Processing
Expected Ship Date: 09/17/2014 To 09/18/2014
 
I remember with my iPhone 5 my CC wasn't charged until a week after my phone arrived, so even if you haven't been charged I wouldn't sweat it.

Your definitely in the minority and very lucky then, never heard of any retailer shipping you goods and charging you a week later.
 
I think a lot more people are going to be receiving their iPhone 6 (and possibly a few 6 Pluses) on Friday than the order statuses currently indicate.

This is how it has been with AT&T in the past (personal experience with iPhone 5, 4S and 4.

Color me optimistic.

Agreed, I wouldn't worry about the status page, just as long as you get charged and possibly the less than 1% of the people that don't get charged for a week later.
 
Long time lurker, but just talked to ATT and thought i would post what they had to say just to add to the fun.

I ordered two ATT Iphone 6 Plus, one 64 GB Gold, one 64 GB Silver. Both ordered around 230 AM CST.

Here is the convo:

Welcome! You are now chatting with 'Gilbert'
Craig : Hey Gilbert
Gilbert: Hello, thank you for chatting with AT&T today. I am currently reviewing the information you have supplied.
Gilbert: How many I assist you today Craig?
Craig : i am curious as to whether the shipping dates provided are a conservative estimate and if there is a good chance we may actually receive our orders on Friday/
Gilbert: I see you want to check your order status and I will be more than happy to assist you today. May I please have the order number?
Craig: I have two orders:XXXX-XXXXXXXXX & XXXX-XXXXXXXXX
Gilbert: Thank you I will check both as soon as possible.
Gilbert: In order to protect your privacy, may I please have the First Name, Last Name, and the last four digits of the Social Security Number associated with this account? Can you also provide me with the full billing address, including street, city, and zip code?
Craig: XXXXXXX
Craig: XXXXXXX
Gilbert: Thank you for verifying the account Craig. Looking at order XXXX-XXXXXXXXX the estimated shipping time frames are up to 10/13/2014 To 10/22/2014, for order number XXXX-XXXXXXXXX the estimated time frame is up to 10/13/2014 To 10/22/2014.
Craig: do you happen to know if these dates are a conservative estimate or the actual date these orders will be shipped? I see others who ordered after my who have sooner delivery dates and im just a little confused by that?
Gilbert: Let me check into it Craig, thank you for your patience.
Craig: i really appreciate your help
Craig: thanks
Gilbert: Your welcome.
Gilbert: Good news Craig looking into the order further, your orders would be shipped out and delivered on the 19th.
Gilbert: Is there anything else I can help you with today?
Craig: that is great to hear! is there any way i can get a confirmation for that through the system?
Craig: or will it update automatically?
Gilbert: Unfortunately there is not a way to send you confirmation, however you should be able to receive an email tracking number once shipped.
Craig: and i guess it should ship tomorrow to be received by Friday?
Gilbert: Correct.




So not sure if he was just saying what i wanted to hear or not, but we will see if i get a tracking number tomorrow.

If not there is probably a good chance i will be in line thursday night, because im not waiting a month for my phones. Not that patient.

An authorization and transaction are 2 separate things. What likely is happening is AT&T just authorized the anticipated amount initially. That will stay on your card X days (determined by your issuer). Usually the actual transaction from the merchant will come through within that X days and the hold will be taken off and the actual transaction applied. If the actual transaction isn't sent in before the X days, the hold would come off and whenever the merchant sends in the actual charge, it will post to your account (because it was already authorized). If you go out in the interim and spend all your available, that could put you over limit/overdrawn. It's also possible before they actually ship, they may re-authorize your account.
 
So for everyone that had the authorization charge drop off today, we should expect a charge tomorrow or Thursday that sticks. That will be a very good sign that you're getting your iPhone 6 Friday.

Good point, should have noted it will pending until the 17th/18th when it ships. This is my pending charge.

Might be useful info to some....

Spoke with an a Premier Rep @ AT&T.

According to what he told me, our estimated shipdates are just that... estimates.

He stated, the latest advisory he got,
"As far as iPhone 6+'s, At&t will receive their shipment on Friday 9/19, and will being processing and shipping those phones out to customers shortly after"

So with that being said I would assume most of us 6+ Customers will get our phones NEXT week. 9/22 -9/26

Is two-day shipping the default with AT&T?

Hey man. I have the exact dates as you. I haven't talked to then. I feel scared. Don't want them to screw with my emotions hehe.
 
Your definitely in the minority and very lucky then, never heard of any retailer shipping you goods and charging you a week later.

Not at all, most all Premier charges for the 5S didn't happen until about 7-10 days after the delivery of the phone at launch last year.
 
Cancel Button Gone

Well...just checked and my Cancel Preorder button is gone. Crossing my fingers that this is a good sign.

Spoke with an agent earlier, and she said that all orders had been sent to the warehouse and would be allocated on first come/first serve basis. Tracking numbers and shipping would happen tomorrow. No idea how accurate that is, but at least it makes sense.

128 6+ Gold

I have the same shipping dates (and always have except for the period where we all went to Backordered).
