Can anyone give me hope?
On 10/7, times EDT:
o 04:55am ordered 64gb black (Mine!) from ATT. Order confirmed via email, delivers 10/14.
o 11:57am ordered 16gb black (grandson's) from ATT, [perfectly valid] card not accepted, used another, order confirmed, not backordered, now in Ft. Worth. Good.
o 01:48 64gb (Mine!) needs attention email, called told that some credit companies were rejecting early am orders, used another credit card, confirmed, told "This will not change your place in line."
At 11:10, mine is still listed as Pending / Backordered. Can anyone reassure me? Thanks!

I had the same issue until I copied the tracking number and pasted it in the tracking box on the FedEx home page. This revealed the tracking screen, with an estimated delivery of "10/14 by 3:00" while clicking on the tracking number in the AT&T e-mail still shows "not found." Give it a try, and good luck!
Not sure what you mean? My order number through the at&t order status gave me a fedex tracking number.
Haha on me.
Someone at work had ordered and iPad. I tracked it all the way here.
Bad on me.
No iPhone 4s for me today.
I still have no tracking number.
My order has shipped. I have a tracking number and it shows it left Texas and will be delivered by EOD tomorrow. My credit card no longer has a pending charge and the actual charge for the phone has not hit my card. Maybe it'll be free? LOL!
I hope everything is ok with mine. The most recent movement on my tracking number is: "Agent pickup; in transit to UPS facility." but that was at 1am in Memphis. I'm a little concerned about the pending charge disappearing and the money being returned to my account. Has this happened to anyone else?
We ordered 2 white 32 from a corporate store 10/7 at 11:00 EST. Still back ordered. I am POed. We are switching from blackberry to the iphone and after yesterday's blackberry outage a little more anxious to make the switch.
If you have a tracking number, you're getting your phone friday. Why worry?
That is not true. I have had packages turn up missing before and ever since I filed a claim, my house is on a "do not leave package" list. If a delivery is attempted, then it goes to the hub OR a UPS Store.
I have confirmed this already.
Remember, they can still mark your phone as shipped and overnight it to you.
The time to worry is if you wake up tomorrow and your progress is still the same.
OK, some don't get it, so I'll splain it to ya all
debit card = draws money out of your checking account against your available balance.
credit card = draws money out of "virtual" account up to your credit line
I have NEVER in all my years, ordered something online and had to "wonder" if I was actually going to get my purchase, (att's process flat out sucks, and it needs to change)
All I know is that I will be getting my 4s tomorrow, and I hope everyone else here does as well. The amount of bs/uncertainty att has put us ALL through is absolutley unacceptable, total crapola !!!
This is my last post on this thread, and I sincerly hope everyone here is smiling come friday night.
I used phone number and zip in UPS reference tracking.
Sadly it was an iPad that someone at work ordered.
It just got delivered.
Blah.
Sorry everyone.

No sweat, its all cool.
Well, now both the AT&T Premier site and the AT&T Order Status pages show a tracking number. This time, though, the tracking number (FedEx) actually works. It has updated to show that the iPhone left Fort Worth, Texas, today at 6:00am and is estimated to arrived "October 14, 2011, by 3:00 PM". So far, so good...
UPS told me twice that ALL alternate delivery options (holds, redirects, notes, pickup after initial delivery, MyChoice, etc...) were null. AT&T specifically told UPS NOT to honor them for any reason. You may have some trouble if UPS is following the rules. She told me they even told UPS that no changes to delivery were approved even if they came from AT&T. This is information that is current as of 30 minutes ago. If UPS doesn't follow the request by AT&T you may be able to pick it up. But I am certain that will be the exception and definitely not the rule.
