**AT&T iPhone 4 Order Status Thread**

PezRadar said:
We have to remember that last year Apple Orders shipped before AT&T orders.

AT&T Orders came out of Dallas for me as Apple sends AT&T theirs beforehand then AT&T ships them from the US.

Apple ships out of China.

EXACTLY!

Plus, When I called ATT, the consultant informed me that all the Phones being shipped from ATT will be shipped via OVERNIGHT. Any ATT customer shouldn't receive any tracking info until the day before. The consultant offered me piece of mind, in that, he said he would personally give me a call back on the 23rd to personally give me my tracking info. I am not worried in the least bit! It will arrive here on the 24th.

My brother is the manager at the ATT store nearest me, and he said that I have no need to worry. Even though I placed my order at 7:30PM EST by pen and paper. He's checking my account periodically on their systems (which aren't experiencing errors) and nothing has changed, still looks good!

hmmm I wouldn't think thats a good thing.. maybe I'm wrong and yours is one of the lucky "early shippers" I've read about... Still haven't seen anyone post a tracking number from ATT though.

Standard practice as mentioned 100 other times in this thread. If AT&T doesn't claim the money within 3 days (typical), your bank will release the hold. This is normal, and won't affect a thing unless you go spend all the money before your phone gets shipped and billed. Then you'd be in trouble.

And mine goes to the store as I swap this one with my 3Gs for my wife.

In any case - guys, its just a phone! Chill out! The world will not cease to exist if it is not arriving on the 24th (and I say that even though I am leaving the country on a trip shortly after, either with 3Gs or 4).

Yeah, good luck with that. Ever been to a car dealership that takes credit cards, but only allows you to charge $3,000 or so? That's also against the card agreement rules, but they've been doing it for decades.

I can't say that I have OR would ever charge a car on my CC. :eek:
 
capital one will drop the hold after 4 business day i just got off the phone with them but att can still take the funds out from what i understand
 
Ordered 32 black at 01:16 PST time. Premiere's site says processing. AT&T site showed backordered a couple of days ago. No longer backordered now.
 
That link made a lot of sense and was enlightening, but I still can't understand why my order placed and confirmed at 8:15 AM ET wouldn't clear backordered before those place later. Maybe it has to do with 16 G vs 32 G.

That could be it! It could also be that ATT is literally taking whatever order comes through for processing first and just because you ordered early might not mean squat. With this cluster**** who knows. Like that link stated, they are literally going through orders on at a time, by hand!

I'm in the same boat as you. :confused:
 
anyone noticing a trend? Mostly everyone I heard from that is no longer back ordered are people who ordered the 32 GB hmmmmm
