AT&T/FedEx Signature NOT Required

If they required it though it would show on your tracking page. Mine doesn't say that at all.

My tracking number appeared overnight, although I also have the carrier listed as "null". I tried the tracking number in the FedEx website, and it worked, has all the right details, and says delivery tomorrow (23rd).

It said nothing about signature requirement, so I just called them to ask, and they said one will NOT be required (and that the 23rd delivery date is real).

Good luck, everybody.
 
I just sat on hold for 30 minutes with AT&T and finally got through to a tech. Whom I could hear breathing. And tapping at a keyboard. And the various techs around him/her. I said "Hello?" a few times with no response. After 20-25 seconds, I said "I can hear you breathing, and all the background noise" and which point s/he scoffed a bit and disconnected the line.

If I could have reached through that phone and choked them I would have.

Order number: 680711****
Ordered 6/15 before noon via regular ATT site. Status says "In Progress".
 
Late order shipped

I ordered at 5pm pacific time (in store). I don't think anyone has anything to worry about if you ordered on the 15th.

by the way, those of you who are calling fedex, are yall typing in your tracking number through the automated system, or actually talking to a representative.

i entered my number through the automated system and it still says it's not in their system, but would i be told something different if i talked to an actual person?
 
still no tracking info =(

ordered on the 15th at 3:20 pm eastern online. two 16gbs. has been 'in progress' ever since, never backordered. order date shows at 6/16 though.

has anyone with a 6808 order number gotten tracking yet?? or has anyone who ordered at the same time or after me gotten tracking info??

i'm getting very sad LOL. if I don't see shipping info by tomorrow morning I will be cranky. lol.
 
That's easy for you to say. I ordered mine at 6 freaking AM almost 12 hours before you, and mine is still not shipped.

If FedEx does require a sig (Im sure they do) & no one is home they will leave a door "knocker" or sticker on your door they attempted delivery. You then have the choice to pickup from the warehouse or have redelivery the next business day.

Not true. I just got off the phone with FedEx and the rep told me that just because it doesn't show sig required online does NOT mean it isn't required. She actually stated that b/c it's from a cell company and a declared value of $475 it most probably will require a signature. The only way to tell is ti physically look at the box.
 
@geeluv thats lame.. I ordered mine instore at 12:30 on the 15th.
I'm going up there to at&t when I leave the house to do some moving because the customer service is no help.
 
Woohoo, my iPhone shipped! Ordered on the regular AT&T website around 6pm EST on the 15th. Order was listed as created on the 16th tho, not back-ordered, as of noon today however, it is now showing shipped via FedEx. FedEx tracking shows it was picked up in Ft. Worth TX and is scheduled for delivery on the 23rd!!!!
 
Sorry guys, this thread is going so fast it's hard to keep up with. I just assumed from the last few pages that everyone from the early ording group had received shipping.

Again, sorry. I hope you guys get a little relief soon.

I entered my number three or four times before it sent me to a rep.

It's as a safety issue. Think about it, if they would would your iPhone 4 at your door with no one home and when you get home and it's not there, what are you gonna do?

Sometimes you even brag about getting the iPhone and if the person or people you brag to are savage enough and know you won't be home, chances are they might break into your home or something.

Apple and AT&T put the indirect or direct signature required for a reason.

16gb or 32gb??
 
Date/Time Ordered: 8 a.m. MDT 6/15
Order from: Premier Site

Premier site: I had the "Attention!" status until 6/17 after a THREE AND A HALF HOUR phone call to Premier Support at which point they magically changed it to processing. As of 6/17, it has been in the "Processing" stage with a last update of 6/18.

Regular site: My order finally made it's way into the regular ordering system on 6/18. Since 6/18, the order says it was submitted on 6/17 and has been back-ordered ever since.

As of right now, there's no indication that my order is moving along and certainly no tracking #s at this point.

Despite my order time/date, I feel that for whatever reason, I (and many others) have been pushed to the very end of the line which is quite frustrating to say the least. I'm anxious because I'm leaving for a wedding on the 24th across the country and having my phone shipped to the hotel that I'm staying at. I really hope that it arrives on the 24th. I'm counting on the phone arriving so that I can take pictures and video of the wedding that I'm attending.

No luck yet... ordered early on 6/15. Still in progress.:(
 
Clearly AT&T's claim that they are processing all orders on a first come first served basis is a flat out lie. My order was placed on 6/15 at 11:30am EST and I am still in limbo. AT&T customer care is horrible and they have no answers. This is insane! I am seriously considering dumping them and letting them try to get a ETF for our lines. As far as I am concerned their claim of first come first served was fraud.

I just called them as well. The lady even knew what it was for because she asked if my order number ended in XXXX. LOL! She said even though it doesn't say that one will be required it will be and if I leave a note they will leave it.

I bet they are loving us apple customers up right now at FedEx. :D

Wow, so, well after the cutoff and you're getting yours early? I don't even know what to say.
 
Shipped -> In Transit

My status changed from shipped to in-transit now... So, looks like the trucks are moving out...
