AT&T iPhone 4S Pre-Order Status Thread

still backordered for me

I'm seriously starting to think there is something wrong with our orders if they are still backordered. I've called AT&T twice about it, but of course, they can't tell me anything. If I don't have shipping information by tomorrow night, then I'll strongly consider canceling my pre-order and trying my luck at an AT&T store Friday morning.

As I sit here and read page 131 of all us biting our nails and trying to countdown to the exact minute our UPS/Fedex tracking info will switch to shipped, I can't help but think the mass media has it all wrong. I'm guessing at some point tomorrow, we'll see some random kid in front of an Apple Store with a lawn chair and a case of RedBull's listed as a crazy Apple Fan... I think all of us would agree that the real fans pre-ordered their phone between 1-4am and then sat on message boards for a whole week until d-day!

So true. Been an apple fan since day one and frst thing I do when I wake is check this forum. Read every post check it every hour and before I go to bed lol. I pre ordered mine at 12:45am pst have made multiple calls to AT&T cs reps and fed ex cs reps I just want to talk to my newest best friend Siri end of story

ATT Premier site now has all 3 boxes checked: received/preordered/shipped

But my UPS tracking still isn't working...guess I'll be up all night!

What a way to spend a weeks vacation!

last I checked my premier site, only the recieved box was checked, though it said it type that it was shipped

 

[Geckotek]

AH HA!!!!! my tracking just started working. YES!!!!!!!! SIREEEEEE!!!! It at DFW!

----------

Next Business Day
Delivery typically by 3:00 p.m.
UPS Next Day Air Saver

Does this mean what I think???? i am acting just like my 5 year old at Christmas!!! Some may see it as just sad, but Im excited!!!! It was scanned at DFW at 12:31am. Im not going to hold my breath on a 13th delivery though! hmmm... I just might any how!

Wow, gotta wonder what the chances are for a Thursday delivery. Or maybe that's why they waiting until after midnight to scan them in?

 

[xian67]

Damn you FedEx

 

[Mech63s]

OK Premier site says it has been shipped now that I just checked it again.

 

[Iphone4sjosh]

Why

Why do I feel doomed because I have fedex?! I ordered online and stuck with no tracking still. I know I'll get mine by Friday as I ordered at 1250 am pst on the 7th so I'm just gonna say our chances of getting Thursday are gone. Mine says shipped on the 9th on AT&T.com and it's been shipped for 4 days now. No luck getting it early at all. Friday I'll be stuck on my 4s enjoying it running iOS 5 better than any other device! Ios5 was made for 4s. Not 3GS or 4. Were all good we will have it on the release day no lines involved. That's the brightside

Hmm I have to wonder as well. Its only an origin scan at DFW though. Still not gonna expect it until Friday. But hey, it does make me wonder. By the way you can see this info at the UPS site. They are being shipped UPS NEXT DAY AIR SAVER.


YAH!!!!

I ordered my iPhone 4S 32 GB White on 10/07/2011 last Friday morning online at 7:45am P.T ( from Midnight onwards it took me nearly EIGHT hours of trying before eventually I managed to get the order thru) I am so glad I saw it thru. AT&T Premier. My Shipping is with UPS. This just in ... Hot off the press as they say ... DFW Airport, TX, United States 10/13/2011 12:29 A.M. Origin Scan YEAH my phone is in the US!!!

 

[last.september]

Looks like I'm sitting on the short list of those who haven't gotten a tracking # yet.

Ordered 1 16GB black and 1 16GB white in store at 9:45am HST (so that should be 3:45pm EST) on 10/7.

Crossing my fingers for a tracking number tomorrow morning. If not, I shall go distract myself with iOS 5 on my ipad lol.

I ordered mine at around 2pm Friday and I am good as well. I have a 12:31am origin scan at DFW. I got through on the ordering I think on the first try if I remember correctly.

White 16gb 4S. I am thinking maybe I should have went for the 32gb. but I don't use even 8gb on my 3gs (white).

try using your phone number instead of order number.

----------

ahhhh! Scheduled delivery from UPS os the 14th by 3:00pm

 

[itsthemacaddict]

I did...

 

[jTreu]

still no update, stuck on backordered. I'm gonna go to the AT&T store tomorrow where I ordered and see if they can tell me if it will come on 10/14. If not I'm gonna cancel and try to get one at the AT&T store or best buy on friday morning.

If mine isn't coming on friday that's pretty obnoxious, people ordering 24 hours after me have tracking #'s. What's the point of even having a pre-order if they just randomly fill orders?

 

[Mech63s]

my credit card still hasn't been charged

 

[albatross83]

Has anyone's order gone directly from back ordered to shipped?

Well my tracking just updated and shows delivery on Friday before 3pm mine is in Dallas and I live in so CA so people can go to sleep now!

 

[cake90036]

still backordered for me

I have a White 32 GB that has shipped (ordered around 8:30 AM PST)
My brother ordered a White 16 GB (ordered around 9:00 AM PST) that's backordered.

Anybody else still have 1 under QTY-BACKORDERED?

I hate to b the guy to break the bad news but apparently I got off the phone earlier today with an AT&T rep who told me the time you "ordered" your phone differs from the time you received the "AT&T processed email" .... In my case... I ordered 2 phones in 2 separate orders

1 32gb black
1 64gb white...

Both were ordered online at 4:10am EST.... Then I had fraud alert and cleared it OVER THE PHONE WITH AN AT&T REP! Who clearly stated that both orders went through at 11am on 10/07/11.... About an hour later I get the confirmation email from AT&T confirming they processed one order... And then I get the second emal... On 10/10/11 at 1:30pm....

Because they decided to process one faster than the other (which doesn't make sense since I cleared it over the phone with an AT&T associate AT THE SAME TIME!.... Only one of my phones was shipped and now the other stays back ordered....

Go back through your emails and look for the date and time it was "processed" email.... It's different from the confirmation email that u get immediately after u placed the order...

Based on the date from the second email... If your order was processed after 5:30pm on 10/07/11 then ur getting the second shipment... Doesn't matter if u ordered it earlier... It matters about the time it was "processed" by AT&T....

Due to the fact that AT&T decided to process my 2nd phone 3 days late.... I am know having to expect my second order between the 21-28 day gap.... FUN!!! (sarcasm)

After all the run around I got from AT&T... This was the most useful information I received after all the crap I had to deal with.... And unfortunately it wasn't what I wanted to hear....

If you're still in back order by now.... Face it... We're not getting it on launch.... Unless by some miracle they process it over night... But that would b wishful thinking coming from AT&T....
