I have chase as well, and they emailed me a couple hours after my order with an email that allowed me to authorize the transaction with a click.

Interesting, I did not receive that options.

I ordered mine at 7:30 EST without a single hiccup on ATT's site...boy I hope Chase didn't ruin it for me.
 
Soo, on the AT&T regular site for checking order statuses, most people's status as of right now is still "In Progress", correct?
Mine has been like that since I pre-ordered it at an AT&T store on the 15th. It changed from having 1's in the backorder to 1's in the qty order that night. My card still hasn't been charged, though.

Just checking to see if I'm with good company on this one. :D

Yep, that's the same for me. You are not alone.
 
Who actually notifies you and ships the iPhone if you ordered through ATT? Does Apple ship them or what?
AT&T is the one who lets you know. People who ordered from Apple are getting there shipment info already because its coming directly from China. A&T have to get there phones first to the warehouse then they process the information. So if you ordered on the 15th and ordered it before the cut off then your fine.
 
Where are you guys actually seeing a QTY or backordered?

Is it where it says:

New Service
iPhone 4 - 32GB BlackData Plan for iPhone

?
 
Those that are getting their orders cancelled are probably those who, like me, didn't have their credit card charged when they ordered it. I actually called the next day and they were able to run it then. They probably didn't call.

Those of you who were backordered and now showing not backordered are probably benefiting from those cancellations.

But, this is my WAG.
 
So why is it that I pre-ordered my iPhone at the AT&T around 10AM and my order status still says, "In Progess", but Apple already started Shipping others their phones.

Why doesn't the AT&T site say they started shipping as well? This is making me mad because it's already going to be Monday tomorrow and they are still In progress? I better get my phone on the 24th, thats the reason why I waited for hours in line at my local store.

Apple says shipping because they are being shipped from China. AT&T doesn't ship from china they have to get them to your local warehouse and then ship them out. It will probably be tomorrow since Fedex dont work on sundays.

Because Apple is shipping from China whereas AT&T is shipping from Texas. You won't see anything from AT&T until AT LEAST Tuesday probably Wednesday.
 
Premier Order Status

FYI all, just called AT&T Premier to check my order status. Was told 'your order has been processed and will ship shortly'! Looks like they are making progress.
 
Can't get through online (just keeps taking me back to the order status page) ... phone number still says "processing" :p

AT&T does not update interim status like Apple. They should because it will eliminate calls to the customer service centers. Pre-ordered will flip to shipped and you will get a confirmation number on Monday or Tuesday. I venture to say that it is for the backorders as well. That is if they made it in onetime.
 
My tracking info now say in transit from Lantau Island HK! What a sense of relief. I was worried about mine getting canceled with all the craziness going on.

I ordered from apple.com at about 10:00 EST.

Edit: sorry wrong thread...

Oh, so the people who ordered through ATT won't get theirs on the 24th????
 
I thought I was fine with my "processing" status on the premiere page... then I checked the non-premiere page linked to here, and sure enough... backordered.

If I don't get one on launch day after surviving the great AT&T server meltdown of 2010, I'm going to be peeved. I got in at about 11:30 A.M on the 15th, if that helps anyone (my first try was at 7 A.M pacific :( )
 
AHH!!! I think you got it! I had them ship the phone to the store and not to my house...It's all starting to make sense now! The store probably will have their own supply of microSIM cards available so they don't have to ship it with the phone...nice observation

Thats weird because i had them ship to the store and i have "various sim" on my order status.
