IPhone will launch Globally in 24 hours with 15 million additional global Pre-orders to be added to the list. (Be sure to welcome our new foreign friends to the forum, interpreters feel free to apply here_____)

I wonder if the global launch will really affect the supply here. Most of the rest of the world is getting the 6/6+ models A1586/A1524 while the US and Canada get models A1549/A1522 (ours lack the 4 additional TD-LTE bands), except for Sprint/US Cellular/CSpire.

I do wonder why they didn't just use A1549/A1522 worldwide. It will mean most US/Canadian phones can't roam as many places with LTE internationally. Maybe there was an additional cost in adding those 4 bands...
 
I'm just about ready to give up hope on a delivery any time soon. Going to start telling myself mid October and move on with my life until then.

**** AT&T.

Me too. I was using the regular ATT.com site to track, today I started using the premier, cancel is still on it so I am no where near to shipping.
My premier order began with 1018, placed on 9/12 at about 220am CST, order confirmation arrived at 6:50am.
So early preorder person, premier, nothing happening, still.
 
yea I'm just gonna come to terms with the Oct 2-13rd delivery dates and be pleasantly surprised if it happens earlier. 128 GB Space Gray Plus. M.I.A
 
According to this list:

http://www.seaturtle.org/idevice/iphone6_grid.shtml

there are almost no 6+ phones at any Apple store.

I finally got mine but am still waiting on a 64GB SG for my brother-in-law. My brother waits for the same one (he's a premiere customer too). It's a big freaking phone. I love it :)

Maybe I'm reading this list the wrong way? But what I don't get is why does it say "Unavailable for pickup" on apple.com for the same store/phone combination when this spreadsheet has a number? Where are these numbers getting pulled from?

---------Nevermind...Those are the minutes...LOL MY B!
 
I hadn't seen any fellow Utahns here so I didn't know if we were having issues like certain other locations. I ordered 10 minutes after 1:00 MDT got confirmation right away. My contract was executed at UDC 08:38 for 64GB SG 6+ and 64GB Gold 6+. Can't figure any rhyme or reason for why we still don't have ours and others do that ordered long after us. We are premier. I do think that UT is low on their priority list and fist come first served is obviously a lie.

I agree we seem to be low priority. I tried to get a Plus on Sat and was told no one in the whole county had one. (Utah County) Even the Apple Store in Murray had only a few. I got my 64 SG Plus 30 minutes ago, finally. It's huge. I'm 6'4" and I don't think I'll be doing much on it with one hand.
 
So finally have to create an account to post this. Here is what AT&T premier told me just now. Basically they blame on Fedex :eek::eek::eek:

Adrian Seloterio A.: at 14:10:49
yes the fedex pick ups the order from warehouse and their also the one who gives the tracking number to customers
Ryan: at 14:11:35
I am asking if you confirm that AT&T has my phone ready in the warehouse and waiting for Fedex to pick up
Adrian Seloterio A.: at 14:13:43
yes your order is already in the warehouse and waiting to be ship out
Ryan: at 14:15:43
i am talking about the actual phone not the order
Adrian Seloterio A.: at 14:18:44
yes the phone also because if the warehouse have no stock of devices your order will probably in pending right now

As long as they're being produced out of the same facility, I'm pretty sure it would have some sort of impact. Sucks I know, but there's not much we can do at this point but to wait.

I think by next week we'll all slowly come to terms with our estimated shipping dates. Now if those dates gets pushed back even further, I have a feeling all hell is gonna break loose. :mad:

That's funny. I had someone the other day tell me to cancel my order. She "100% assured" me that every AT&T/Apple store had every size/model/color in stock. She kept pushing me to cancel my preorder and to go pick it up now.

I then asked her how come AT&T turned me away 25 minutes ago and Apple did an hour ago saying they haven't had any in days. She didn't have a response and asked if there was anything else she could help me with.

I did the same thing. LOL

None of them know anything, they just want to get you off the phone. The only surprising thing is that the callcenter manager hasn't provided a standard script for them to read, rather than having each one give a widely divergent, different, and equally incorrect answer. Poorly handled all around, really.
 
Apparently a mall near me (according to the seaturtle site) has a 128gb SG + in stock. On hold now to find out if I can go get it and use next.


and I was looking at the wrong column. No +'s lol

Thanks for the info but that is ridiculous.

AT&T is playing a blame game now. During my chat with AT&T, they kept telling me to call and ask Fedex more than 3 times. :mad:
 
Stopped by my local ATT store and checked out the 6+. Honestly, I imagined it to be bigger than it was! I'm an average sized dude with average sizes hands and it didn't seem awkward at all. Can I use it with one hand? Yes, but not easily (especially navigating to the top of the phone).

Given that, the extra screen size and sheer crispness of that display and it's ridiculous lightweight, I'm more content now than ever to wait it out; even if it gets to me between 10/2-10/13.

If you preordered a 6+ and haven't checked it out in person, I highly recommend doing so. It eased my anxiousness about considering a regular 6. I'm definitely happy with the 6+ size.

Same here. I did the same thing last weekend. It just looks amazing.
 
UPDATE....

Summary of Today's Headlines on the forum...

One person has recieved a tracking number in the entire forum... All day, and she may have been lieing.

IPhone will launch Globally in 24 hours with 15 million additional global Pre-orders to be added to the list. (Be sure to welcome our new foreign friends to the forum, interpreters feel free to apply here_____)

CSR's from AT&T told different customers different lies.

We had two (update now 3) people say they cancelled and went with a 6 and then listed reasons justifying the change.

Planes that landed in Alaska carrying iPhones may be headed to Russia for the global launch and not for us. (Wouldn't make much sense but nothing has seemed to make much sense yet).

The phrase, "Screw AT&T" may or may not be a verb. (this was highly departed on page 175).

An Asian guy tossed boxes all over in a humorous gif

IPhone 6 Plus may bend if kept in the pocket. (wouldn't know though because we don't have ours).

11 forum members have been put on suicide watch. (please remember to remove their shoelaces and any sharp objects)

There are planes in the sky. Where they are going and what models they are carrying no one knows. (Less planes than yesterday though so this may not be a good sign).

*And, as always, feel free to add whatever I may have missed.

:)

I'm in Utah too and haven't noticed any others either. I ordered a SG 128 shortly after 1 with a confirmation about an hour later. I am premier as well. I don't think its Utah that's low priority it's just us att customers ;)
 
64 GB SG + Confirmation at 11:57pm PST Upgrade
128 GB Gold + Confirmation at 12:02am PST NEXT

Still "Preparing for shipment " 10/2-10/13

Beyond frustrated
 
i have the same dates on 1 of my 2 orders. Strongly considering canceling and trying the stores, but i'm afraid to throw away a sure thing.

Yea I was planning the same thing but the stock for the 6+ high capacities in my area are extremely poor. The AT&T stores don't even have demo units of the 6+. Been also checking nightly the stock on apple.com but nothing there.

My co worker got the 6+ and i held it a couple times...feels great! Everyday he said he's liking it more and more!
 
128g SG t-mobile

I just ordered a 128g SG t-mobile from Apple.
No contract full price.

09-23-2014 at 4:55 pm central.

I'm going to see if it beats the one I ordered from AT&T at 2:45 am central on the 12th.

My shipping dates are 10/2-10/13.

I was bumped up a week about 7 days ago.

I paid full price for the AT&T phone, so I didn't have to wait on a confirmation email to "sign" a contract.

This should be interesting.
