ordered on 7/13... still in progress and backordered

maybe they produced new phones and it's taking a while for them to come over to the US

also, I saw a copy of Jobs' script for tomorrow....he's not recalling the phone
 
Well after sending off some "unhappy" emails to several different account reps last night, low and behold what do I have in my inbox this morning? A tracking number. Almost a month later, scheduled for delivery tomorrow. Hallelujah. Tracking number says it shipped today. Coincidence?

If they announce a recall Friday, my head will explode.

Congratulations on finally getting a tracking number. After a month, you deserve it. Maybe I'll send some emails of my own. The press conference tomorrow should be interesting :rolleyes:
 
Very anxious to receive my Iphone 4!

I placed my order for the iphone on Saturday afternoon and my status says backordered. The guy told 5 to 7 days, but I seriously doubt that will be a reality. :mad:

My OCD has me checking my order status about every hour or so. My fiancee wants her phone too. Hoping for a miracle. I made the mistake of getting an LG Expo first go around a few weeks ago, what a mistake that was.
 
Ordered 16gb on 07/08/10 from At&t corporate owned store in Los Angeles

As of 11:45 today, 07/15/10 - shows backordered still, which is inside of their estimate anyway.
 
Just spoke with an AT&t rep and had he looked up my order and said it "PENDING" :confused: We ordered 2 phones on the 6th of july and it's still pending?? Really bummed out here:(
 
I ordered mine on the 6th of July from an AT&T store and my order still says backorder:( I'm really starting to get worried here.

Same exact boat...backordered since 7/6. I just got off the phone with a very rude, very unfriendly At&t sales rep. For my part I took the more bees with honey approach, but I did ask her nicely to explain the problem with orders seemingly getting filled in a haphazard manner. I asked if it had anything to do with location. She seemed to get very indignant (or more so, she was rude from the get go). She said the other people must be ordering from Apple or other stores. I explained that the thread made up of people who ordered from At&t. She stuck to her guns and said all orders are filled first come first serve. Yeah, right. If anyone gets the same rep, please give her a pile driver through the phone (kidding of course). If it wasn't for being stuck in a preexisting contract, I'd be tempted to walk.

It's great to know that im not the only 7/6er lol. The rep i spoke with was actually really nice and was kind of taken back when he saw that my order had not yet been shipped yet, stating that it normally takes 3 to 7 days. So im kind of worried but my wife even more so. Just hoping I get it before there's any really bad news tommorow lol.

I hope we both see our phones soon. It looks like I might be spending another weekend without a cell, but I guess that's my fault for selling my 3GS early...lol.:eek:

16gb ordered 7/8 am.. still backordered.. we gotta be getting close.. anyone else heard that they are fixing the antenna problem and this is what is slowing down shipment?

I saw that story on page 1 of this site. I was also thinking that could be what's gumming up the works...if it's true? Either way the wait is getting excruciating.

If that's the case, then boy will I be happy when I receive it.

Ordered 7/7. Still back ordered.
 
it looks like almost all of the people who ordered 7/6 or before have came off backorder.. maybe that means up 7/7 and 7/8 people are getting close..

Nope, I posted a thread about the possibility of phones being held back earlier this afternoon. There was one guy who ordered on 7/8 who just received it. I think it's too early to tell since it's still within the 7-10 day window.

I've seen very few comments about phones off backorder today. There does appear to be a pause in processing today. I could be wrong. You have to remember to take these statements with a grain of salt...for example...

My order just got off backorder and will be shipped tomorrow!
