Anyone having problems logging into AT&T and checking order status? It logs me in but gives me pink text and doesn't let me click anywhere.

What is everyone's take on the whole "ships in 14-21 days" thing??

Kind of like purchasing tickets on an airline. I think AT&T overbooked their orders and are now giving themselves time to fulfill their current requests. I mean they had to have had an idea of how many units they could commit to delivering on time. Then again it's all about the numbers and I gotta wonder out of the 200k that they pre sold how many are actually going to get their orders on time.
 
It depends on when you ordered it. If you ordered later in the day like me then I expect it. If you stayed up, or got up early, then that's messed up.
 
I ordered mine around 4:40 am on the 7th. (EST)

Mine is in Anchorage right now, estimated to arrive here in NC on the 14th.

I think that anyone who ordered within hours of preorder opening up should expect their phones to arrive on launch day, as was promised.

Or earlier, as is the case with a few people here.


I'm sure that if I was in Alaska, my phone would show up at least a day or 2 early.

Pending shipment on both 16GB black & 16GB white iPhone 4s. Received an email stating that my order has been processed and sent to the warehouse for shipment. Excited!:)

I pre-ordered by phone on 10/7 and I barely just got my T&C email today. I go to check the status on AT&T's site and it says "Date Ordered: 10/10/2011" and backordered. I'm not worried about it being backordered by why the heck does it say I ordered the phone today? I hope this doesn't mean I'm getting my phone in 1-4 weeks! What do you guys think?

How did you get your tracking number to see where it's currently at?
 
Be on the lookout for shipment notification emails. Looks like a new batch is heading out. Me and 3 of my friends (all of us on ATT) just got emails from Apple in the last 5 minutes.

I had auth hold on my account for the iPhone - now the money is listed as back in my account... what is going on?

It happens pretty often.

Last year the pre-auth charge disappeared on my order, the phone got delivered, and then I got charged like 2 days later by Apple. I wouldn't sweat the payment thing.
 
What time did you guys place your orders?

Edit: NVM, I see you ordered from Apple.

We all ordered between 5am and 7am on 10/7 from Apple.com. And we're all in Pittsburgh, PA so that probably counts for something. Maybe they're shipping them regionally?

This thread is for orders placed through AT&T's website, not Apple

We are fully aware of people getting tracking #'s from Apple

Correct me if I am wrong but wasn't their some type of announcement by AT&T stating that they maxed out all pre-orders in 12 hours? So doesn't that mean that whomever ordered their phone within that 12 hour window should receive their phone on the 14th and anyone after the 12 hours will be pushed to the 1-2 week window?

There is no dedicated thread for Apple so they are posting in the thread for their carriers.

Take it up w/ Arn.

What time did you order?
 
What is this terms and conditions email everyone's talking about? I know when I was preordering I think I remember checking a box saying I read and understand the terms and conditions. Are people who didn't check this box getting the email?

Somebody posted a link to it and I tried to fill it out but it gave me an error saying something about I don't need to do it.
