I have to order at ATT.com because the subsidy option was removed from Apple.com.

Does ATT put any writing or stickers on the iPhone shrink wrap at all?

Finally, is the outside cardboard (brown shipping box) packaged fairly well? I remember when I ordered for some other family a few years ago at ATT.com, it was the tiny iPhone box in a monstrous box with no filler, so it just bounced around like crazy.

Thanks.

Mine had my name and cell number on a white sticker.

Ok, thanks for that. Maybe it will peel off, or I can save the shrink wrap from my first one and try to put it back on it. ha-ha. :)

They used paper filler on mine. And a sticker on the shrink wrap. I really wanted to save it, but it's not worth it. It's ruined imo.
 
Just ordered a 6S+ Gold 64gb off of AT&T website.. have an ETA of: 10/29/15 - 11/05/15

Hope it will arrive sooner..
 
Didn't pre-order mine per say, but ordered last night from AT&T's website, shipped yesterday, will be here tomorrow. So stoked.

I didn't pre-order mine either, but placed an order for a 64 GB Gold iPhone 6s about 3 hours back on www.att.com and the status now is 'preparing for shipment' with an estimated ship date of Oct. 6 - 8.

Anyone here know if phones have been shipping out sooner than the displayed estimates?

Don't take my words as gospel, but I would assume it could ship today, since it's the 64GB, though I could be wrong.

Glad to see the phones are getting quicker delivery estimates, and being shipped quicker.

Is the Plus 128GB Space Grey having longer times to ship?
I actually wanted the Space Gray, but the shipping said mid november, so I went with the White/Silver.

Seems the one in most demand is the 128GB 6S Plus in Rose Gold.
 
I'm looking at some of the previous posts and I'm seeing where people are activating their phones with the SIM that comes with the phone. If you have an existing iphone6 or 6 plus the SIM should be the same. All you have to do is pop it out of the old phone and pop it in the new one and viola it should work with no problem and there is no activation needed what so ever.

That may be true that it works, but my corp rep specifically warned against doing this and recommended activating the sim that comes with it.
 
I created an account here just to post in this thread. Either Apple was way overshooting their targeted delivery dates or they doubled their factory staff to fullfill pre-orders, lol

I upgraded the wife's line on Sep. 19th online at att.com. Ordered her the 6S+ 128GB rose gold phone. Estimated ship date was Nov. 6th-Nov. 13th. Just got an email saying it was shipped today.

Quite the pleasant surprise.

I don't get it. I ordered mine on 9/12, have a ship date of 10/06-12 and my order still says processing and I have received no shipment notification. Boo!
 
Anyone else still in the same boat?
Processing Items Available to ship: 2-3 weeksDelivers: 20 Oct, 2015 - 26 Oct, 2015 by Standard Shipping
Mine is supposed to deliver between 10/06-12 and I still have yet to receive any notification from ups and apple still says its processing my order. :/
 
I did my orders last night but had to pay to upgrade. Got confirmation email on the payments but nothing yet on the actual orders. Not in a huge rush but expect I am just waiting for the backlog to clear. I do not see the orders on the ATT website yet either. Ordered 2 64G plus models.

Now that I have received the "Your items are on their way!" e-mail, I guess I can take your words as the gospel!

I have a UPS tracking number, but as anyone would imagine, no tracking information yet. I live in greater Houston area and on my past AT&T orders, the phones shipped out of Dallas. I wonder where this order will ship out of. Anyone know?
 
Finally got an update from the eternal "processing" to "preparing shipment" today.

Problem is, I am on an ATT account with my Mom and since she is the primary account holder it will ship to her and then she has to turn around and ship it to me. :cool:
 
They are STILL sending more planes with iPhones so those of you that are waiting probably won't have to wait as long as quoted even though it seems like forever.

Next time just change some settings in the account. I don't live with my mom but I'm on her plan. I changed the primary address before preordering and it shipped directly to me. After I got my phone I just switched the address back

My brother's line is on my account. We typically change the billing address to his address when we upgrade his line. Saves on time and additional shipping costs.
 
I ordered a white 128gb iPhone 6S Plus yesterday and got an estimated ship date of October 28 - November 4th. Today I got a notification saying the phone shipped!
 
Hi all!

On September 29 I went into the AT&T store and through the AT&T next program I upgraded my wife and my iPhone six models to two iPhone 6 S Plus
Models. I got my wife a 64 GB rose gold 6S plus and I got myself a 64 gig gold 6S plus. My phone, the gold one, has an estimated shipping date from the middle of October to the end of October. On the other hand, my wife's Rosegold says November 3 through November 27. We knew that we would be behind the curve by not pre-ordering or standing in line on launch day, but didn't know it would be that long! Any chance it may show up earlier? I see a lot of people posting that they are getting their shipments earlier but I haven't seen anyone with estimated times as long as mine. I've been checking my status update daily, and both are stuck on preparing to ship. Any and all input would be greatly appreciated. I know we are all excited to get our phones, and for those of you who already have them *stickstongueout* so jelly. Seriously.

Thanks!!
Ro
