I am cautiously optimistic. All the various AT&T information sources are currently listing the status differently:

877 phone - two different order numbers: Backordered & Received
866 phone - Cancelled!!!
611 phone - two different order numbers: Received Processed & Being Processed
Premier web - Preorder Processing (10/2 - 10/13)
Regular att.com - SHIPPED

So I am going to hope that the regular AT&T website has the most accurate information. It doesn't list any shipper/tracking information, but maybe I just got the update while it hasn't posted the website.

But it is insane that I have a total of FIVE different order numbers on this new phone - and each source has a different status showing.

I ordered the 128 Plus SG at 12:10 am and didn't receive the email confirmation until 4:41 am. I was included in the group that was pushed into November and then moved to the 10/2-13. So maybe there is hope...
 
I leave the dentist office walking to my car to a series of alerts on my phone:


6+ 128G SG using Next, Premier account
Ordered: 9/12 at 12:10 AM PST
Email Conf: 9/12 at 01:48 AM PST
PDF Time Stamp: 01:48 AM PST
Ship Est: originally early November, then late October, then Oct 2-13
AT&T "877" Status #: Shipped
Premier Site: Email Shipped-Tracking#
MyAtt: Shipped
Will arrive tomorrow FEDEX... Finally
 
I purchased the Iphone 6+ 64gb SG. My order was done around 3:45AM EST and received my confirmation email a little before 7am. I was bumped up a few times and landed in the 10/2 - 10/13 bucket. I posted yesterday that everything was still preparing to ship but when I called the 877 number instead of tell me my item was back ordered it gave me the delivery dates of 10/2 - 10/13. Then today I called back again and it said shipped. I first got an email from fedex delivery manager (1:54PM EST) then 2 hours later I got the email notification from premier (3:40PM EST) and then finally got the text notification at 4:09PM EST. My phone shipped fedex overnight delivery and should be here tomorrow by 8pm. Now I finally have to commit to a case. I hope this is helpful and that everyone else gets their phones soon! :D:D:D:D:D

Also wanted to add that my reference number for fedex has nothing to do with my cell phone number nor the order number from myatt or premier

Same here. Out of the blue, gonna be delivered tomorrow!! 128 GB SG.
 
I got a good news at 5pm today that my phone was already shipped!

So I'm gonna provide you my info. Hopefully it will help you guys out.
I ordered iPhone 6+ 16GB SG on 9/12 at 3:15AM.
I got a confirmation email around 5:15AM.
I'm a premier member bc I'm a college student.
My estimate shipping date was 10/31-11/11 then it bumped up to 10/02-10/13 last week. Nothing changed after that.
I called 877 yesterday and today's morning. It always said my order is "backordered."
I kept checking BOTH premier and regular AT&T website, but they both showed me "preparing to ship and order processing."
My order ID is 1014....
I live in Ohio.

And finally, I got an email about my shipping from AT&T premier at 5pm today.
It will arrive tomorrow around 3pm!!

Hang it there guys! Everything can happen! Do not cancel your order. I kept checking on Apple stores, but my iPhone 6+ version is unavailable for 3 days now.
 
mine is still stuck with Preorder Processing
Expected Ship Date: 10/31/2014 To 11/11/2014

on the regular wireless.att site, it shows as Shipping Status Preparing to Ship but with same dates.
 
iPhone 6+ SHIPPED

Finally my iPhone 6+, 64G, SG, got shipped!!

Preordered on Sep. 12, 3:20 am ET
Bumped from Oct13 to Oct2 group and no change since then
Called Premier and was told the preorder was placed at 8:00 am, Sep 12
Received "Information about your AT&T Plan" email on Sep 24, 12:00 pm
Received "AT&T Premier Order Shipment Notification" email on Sep 24, 3:30 pm with tracking number!!
Deliver time: Thursday 9/25/2014 by 8:00 pm by Fedex :)
 
iPhone 6 Plus 64GB Gold

Ordered at 3:25 Eastern 9/12

2 texts the next day around 11.

My status' finally changed to Shipped on ATT site and Premier site about an hour ago.

Called the 877 number, gave me the fedex tracking number

It's due here (Baltimore) tomorrow, shipping from Fort Worth, TX.

Order number started with 1012

Now my wife can get off my back. My 6 SG arrived on launch day.
:)
 
Thank you to everyone who previously posted!!

When you encounter such problems, it is easy to think it is only you, but by reading 100's of people having the same frustrating problem makes you feel better.

I also ordered within 15 minutes of on-sale for the pre-sale and had a late November date. Then it changed to 10-2 to 10-13 shipment date as late as today. I also received conflicting status reports from premier vs. regular AT&T site. At 3:09pm LA time, I got the text about the 6 plus 128 SG being shipped. The tracking claims it will be delivered tomorrow afternoon. The lesson to AT&T is that they need to update the accuracy of their systems by the time the next model comes out. I usually get their text survey after speaking with someone, but was never able to get through on any of my calls in recent days so I will not be able to rate them 1 on a scale of 1 to 10.
 
Anyone who is showing shipped with no tracking can check this page to see if you can get your shipping details.

https://www.att.com/order_status/ord...us_results.jsp

I was able to check there before the tracking actually showed up on my order status page.

Yeah that was the best link. I only saw it today. And it was through that link that I found out that first my husband's SG 128 GB Plus shipped. About an hour later my status changed and now mine has shipped, too.

I thanked fellow online queue sitters on the AT&T Plus Preorder thread and I'd like to repeat my thanks here for the company, support, info and encouragement. Congrats to all who received their tracking info today. Best wishes and encouragement to those who are still waiting.

Special thanks to Ice44 for...he knows what.

I'll continue to follow this thread until I see everyone out of AT&T 6Plus preorder purgatory.
 
did you ever talk to someone and they tell you that your ship date was just an estimate and that you could get it sooner??
 
AT&T business premier account pre-order (iPhone 6 Plus) only!

Mine changed from back ordered to item is being processed for item 6643a sometime between 4:53pm and 7:13pm central!!!!

No shipping yet, but I'm sure as hell refreshing away :)

They cancelled my order

You guys aren't going to believe this (on second thought, you probably will). I have been watching this since the 19th to see how close I was getting. Decided to join just to post this. I just got an email that my order was cancelled. I called CS and found out my order got cancelled by mistake. Waiting for a call back from a supervisor...
 
Annoyed..iphone 6 plus

I just don't understand how everyone who placed their orders around the same time I did and some time after mine....are getting their phones shipped?!? AND that their dates have been pushed up!!! Why has mine remained at the same 10/2-10/13!?! The supervisor told me that orders placed before 4:30 am EST had this ship date...so I still can't understand how and why my ship date us remained the same :mad::confused:
 
Don't know if this is a ray of hope, for the "few" Oct 02 - 13th people....or not..........


And I swear I'm not rubbing it in.....

I Fr&@king FINALLY! received my shipping notice from ATT and fed ex today, for my iPhone 6 plus - premier-, after:

Fr@&$@ing "pre" ordering at 3:10Am ET on sept 12th. Then receiving a Oct 02-13 delivery date, and reading about "later than my orders" being used and enjoyed. What a f$@&ing joke!

They shipped me a iPhone 6 plus in the nick of time. Unfortunately, doesn't mean I wont reevaluate, my services and see that I can't be paying less.

Keep your heads up.....Oct 02-13 people. I hope you get yours earlier than what ATT cares about getting your phone to you.
"We told you Oct 02! So that's when you should expect it",ain't gonna get it! This was a piz poor execution of product release regardless of if it was apple or the carriers fault. Guess it's worse when you get the short end of the stick. Especially after wasting time "pre" ordering.


Edit: sorry for the rant. Still pizd even after receiving my "shipped" order. Takin' all the fun of receiving my phone. This used to be a really fun time. The anticipation. NOT THIS SH$&! What a Bummer.

See? I told you I wasn't rubbing it in!

No it said "Your order is being processed" for about 24 hours. When I checked the number after it shipped, It said, "Your order has shipped... Your tracking number is...It is being shipped via Fed Ex and will arrive by 9/26 at 12am (tomorrow night)"

FedEx site says tomorrow by 8pm

ATT site said shipped with FedEx tracking number
Premier site said "Pending Confirmation" then changed to "Shipped" after about an hour.

Hope that answers your question.

If you don't get anything tonight you probably will tomorrow, watch.
 
Shipped!! 128gb 6+ SG. Ordered at 3:45EST on the 12th and then had to confirm CC# 12pm on the 12th because of hold. Was showing end of november the first day then moved to Oct 2-13.
 
It's a miracle... Finally SHIPPED!!!

I've just been catching up with the thread and sad(but happy for them) seeing others getting their shipping notices. I had actually just got back from the apple store where I was fondling the 6/6+ trying to convince myself I still wanted the 6+ after all the crap going on the past few days. The answer was yes I still did. The 6+ actually felt pretty sturdy to me. We'll see how that goes.

But anyway, finished up the thread and decided to check one last time for the day and shocker when I actually saw Shipped on my order (almost feinted) then I looked and had got my ship notice at 8:45 while I was at the Apple Store.

Ordered my 128GB SG 6+ on 9/12 at 3:45am EST and being shipped to Atlanta area.

Good luck everyone!
 
I'm so happy for everyone. Yes I also have my tracking number. Mine is set for Friday. Why? Because it is being sent to me via USPS... Yes you read right.

Anyway. I remember something similar happened with my iPhone 5 2 years ago, but mine came on launch date even though it always said erroneous ship dates. But this year? Man have we had it bad with at&t and their inconsistencies. I'm gonna fight for them to waive my upgrade fee. All of this? It was uncalled for.
