it is actually on the UPS site, track by reference instead of number and then select mail innovations (package and freight are the other choices). I have been trying to do a screen print but not pasting in here. Don't do it very often anymore and forget the steps.

Oh and try a couple of times. It every once in awhile bugs out and says it can't find it, but I refresh and it shows up again (guessing it is swamped)

Thank you so much after a week of getting no answers from ATT and no order update info, this worked. No tracking # yet, but at least I know it is there!!

(my order #) Not Available
 
If your phone shipped, you're most likely getting it tomorrow. Why worry? We don't need to see your entire tracking list. Some of us don't even have ANY info
 
Are you sure the charge isn't just pending? That's what happened to me, my order has shipped but the charge hasn't actually gone through yet...

Im not sure if the charge is pending or not. I know that $218 is missing from my checkign account and that was almost immidiately after i ordered....Come to think of it, i didnt see a charge for "apple" on my recent purchases...hmmm
 
If you can imagine it, it's happened (except for early arrivals). Status changes from backordered to shipped, orders cancelled without notice, perpetual "processing" statuses, etc., etc. Nobody's experience on here seems to be at all indicative of what will happen with anyone else in the same circumstances, which is, I think, why we're at 4200+ posts and many people are very frustrated.

I totaly agree. I just dont get what 1-2 weeks really means. Does that mean 1-2 weeks after launch, or 1-2 weeks after i ordered. Is it possible ill get it before that estimate? Meh, questions without answeres im afraid.
 
Well, in the past half hour I went from Backordered to Processing to Shipped. My tracking number doesn't work though... Still, feeling very relieved.
 
YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY ITS HERE!!! At destination sort facility!!! I will be looking at the window several times tomorrow for the good ole fedex truck!! CAN NOT WAIT TO ASK SIRI RIDICULOUS QUESTIONS!!!!!!:D:D:D
 
I wonder how absolutely stupid some people that have been going off the deep end are going to feel when they get their phones tomorrow. Will everyone get them? No. But a lot of people will.
 
I'm thinking that a lot of the people wigging out in this thread will be a little embarrassed about their meltdowns tomorrow, when they are opening up their new phones.
 
You: From today? I preordered it under the impression that i would be able to get it tomorrow?
Jessica Morgan: All orders placed on 10/7 prior to 5:30PM have an expected delivery date of 10/14. Devices are shipped on a first come, first serve basis and will begin to arrive on 10/14. However, the actual delivery date depends on when the pre-order is placed, when you accepted the pre-shipment terms and conditions and available inventory. I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
I do apologize Mr. Bartlinski however I see your order completed after 5:30 PM.
You: How is that possible? I have the receipt right here in front of me and I signed the terms and placed the order
at 2:30
Jessica Morgan: I am very sorry Mr. Bartlinski however the system shows a later time. What I suggest is that you visit the store in which you purchased the phone from to clarify.
You: What will that do?
Jessica Morgan: I hope that the store in which ordered this for you would be able to clear up the confusion and maybe have it fixed for you to receive sooner.
I am so sorry for this inconvenience.
You: That's ridiculous.How can the store not just reserve me one to pick up then?
Jessica Morgan: Well they did reserve it for you but unfortunately did not meet the deadline to receive tomorrow. I am hoping that if you contact the store they could replace your order with one they would have in stock tomorrow.
That is not a promise but a hope.
You: Ok, How should I contact them now are they still open?
Jessica Morgan: I could understand the frustration Mr. Bartlinkski and I am very sorry.
Yes, the store should be open until 9. If I were you I would call first.
You: ok thank you
Jessica Morgan: You're very welcome. Is there anything else I can help you with today?
You: No
Thanks for your help

The contrast in tone between this thread and the Verizon Pre-Order thread is incredible...

Ordered over phone with AT&T, still no confirmation of an order online after > 24 hrs...

Yea, thanks for that info! Maybe there is a glimmer of hope. I found that UPS has my package. No tracking info available but they do have my order.

Everyone that is lost in ATT backorder hell should try this!!
 
SHIPMENT STATUS: Processing. Our order fulfillment center is processing your order for shipment.

What the hell does that even mean, processing? Deliberating? Thinking about it? They've been "processing" it for the past 8 hours. Bah.

Still hoping to get a tracking number soon, but if not I'm heading down to the AT&T store to get in line tonight.
