did they recharge your card?

I know it isn't 100% the same situation but my wife's 6 has shipped out and will be here tomorrow but ATT has still not charged my card. The hold dropped off 2 days ago with no need actual or pending charges. I don't think not having a CC charge is any sign that it isn't going to ship. My 6+ still has not shipped so I am going to very jealous of everyone who has one on Friday.
 
I was told the same by a Warehouse Shipping manager who is dating my sister this morning. The accepted terms are the time stamp on your contract. This is at the bottom of the PDF that was sent by Premier in email. My time stamp is at 9:30am. I ordered at 3:04 am Eastern. So the moral of the story is Premier customers were not first come first served. ATT set the original batch of accepted Premier orders to 14-21 day delivery. However, ATT has reallocated its preorder shipments to lower in store stock and increase the amount available for preorders. With this reallocation it evened the playing field to make your order time less important as long as you ordered within the first 12 hours for the plus. The reallocated stock are not yet all in place, that will continue to occur throughout the day.

He estimated 75% of the early preorders for the iPhone 6 plus would be filled between Friday and Tuesday and 100% ordered within the first 48 hours within the next 14 days if the Apple supply stays it's course. He believes 90% or higher will be fulfilled this weekend for the Iphone 6.

He also stated that a large portion of the Premier Iphone 6 Plus tracking numbers would arrive Thursday night into Friday morning. There are many phones that have shipped without a delivered tracking number, the ATT system is delayed in many cases at least 24 hours due to high volumes.

This is very much a fluid situation that is still playing out behind the scenes. Don't give up hope yet!!! He has been working 15 to 18 hour shifts, this is an around the clock operation with good cooperation between ATT, Apple and the shipping carriers. He said it has been a lot of work but cool to be a part of.
this gives me hope

Even if this is completely made up (and Im not saying it is at all) Thank you for restoring some hope to me. I appreciate this information. On another note if you did make it up you should be making millions as a head of public relations somewhere haha

Seriously no disrespect and thank you!:D

PS. the way the first sentence reads it seems like she goes threw a lot of boyfriends and the guy you talked to is just the guy she's dating "this morning" hah
 
Wow my order went through at 6:32 am. I thought it went through at 2:32 am. Very sad

You are the wind beneath my wings! :p
 
On my email I didn't have an attachment since I am a 2 year upgrade, but it was sent just an hour after my first email I received. Still waiting. Ordered 10 min. before they were supposed to open taking orders. iP6+ 64 GB Gold:(
 
For those who plan to make the line because you cancelled. I spoke to a friend whose a manager at AT&T store (no lie), she said she has every color and configuration of iphone 6. The 6 plus, she says she has less than 20. However, there is a drop shipment coming late night/early morning. Don't expect to show up at 8 am and get a plus.

I asked about premier preorders, and she said that in most cases she's seen... people are quick to cancel and then give her associates a hard time when they recieve the phone anyway and want a refund/eligibility reinstated. Her advice is to wait till the end of the day before making a line just because you haven't received your shipment notification.
 
From a reddit thread about At&T 6+ orders... Who knows if true, but i'll believe anything by now:

Apparently the premier orders had to be approved manually by the premier office.
That office didn't open until 8AM EST.
i.e. Anyone who ordered on Premier essentially ordered at 5+ hours after pre-orders opened, that is why the ship date is that far out.

I call BS on this article.
 
I ordered around 11:45AM CST on 9/12 and got my confirmation from premier @11:49AM CST. My 6+ 64GB SG is supposed to ship 11/9-11/27 and it hasn't budged at all.

The idea that AT&T has almost *anything* not automated in their systems is an insult to its customers. And AT&T should have to explain why Premier is treated so differently and is not on the same priority.

I can vouch for it. I ordered my 6 Plus on 12:14 AM PDT but that order was blocked by Bank of America at 5:00 AM and had to call in to reenter my CC info at 8:30 AM when I woke up.

At this point, whatever. It will be a nice surprise if I get it tomorrow. I was really pumped but now its just depressing. What a terrible automated system ATT has but I understand its not worth it to them to re do the whole thing for something that happens once a year.

Probably just how the systems work? I don't think it has anything to do with our place in cue. My coworker ordered his iPhone 6 plus one hour after 12pst and his card got hit about 5 hours after that, just like me. But, I'm premier and he isn't. So I don't think we should be getting this things to our heads

Well, at this point, I'm throwing in the towel. 10/3 is only 2 weeks and 1 day away...this will really help me appreciate the Plus.

This forum has helped tremendously. Too bad work wasn't very productive for me today.

That's assuming that you get it on 10/3 and not the later part of the window 10/13 :)

everyone that ordered from premier was supposed to contact ATT?
