Just checked the 877 number my phone has been on "backorder" and today moved to "being processed." My wife's phone is still on "backorder."

However, it did still say that delivery date for my phone was still 10/2 to 10/13.

My phone: 64GB SG 6+, wife's phone 64GB Gold 6+.
Ordered about 1:10 MDT, my confirmation was time stamped 8:36 UTC, her's is about 2 hours later even though she completed her order as soon as mine completed.

Still no UPS or Fed Ex activity, but hey, any movement is welcome.

I wouldn't hold too much stock on the timestamp from the confirmation e-mail. Ordered mine at 3:44am EDT; received confirmation at 5:09am.

Just spoke with CSR via chat and asked what was the actual timestamp of when AT&T received my order... After about 45 minutes, I finally got the answer that it was received at 8:24am (over three hours after my confirmation e-mail said).

**Ordered iPhone 6+ 64GB SG (Premier).**
 
Anybody else been turned down by AT&T by trying to cancel over the phone?

I was able to cancel my order over chat. I ordered 9/11 @ 11:50 PST and still don't have a phone or any updates. They gave me no problems canceling it. They CAN cancel it unless it has already shipped. Don't let them lie to you.

Just checked my order for a iPhone 6+ 64GB SG and yesterday it was backordered and now its "being processed".
 
Question: Now that I want the regular 6 and I'm unable to cancel over the phone, when I do receive the 6+ in the mail should I leave the box unopened and return it? I would like to at least open it up first and see if I like it.

Also, if do bring it back, can I return it to the Apple Store or does it have to be an AT&T store?
 
I wish I could fly to China to assemble my own Iphone 6+ :mad:
I wonder why AT&T didn't have an automated system that tells us the phone is out of stock. If stores like Best Buy,Targets and Gamestop are able to stop pre orders for game consoles, why can't AT&T?
 
If you guys think this phone is so beautiful and perfect. Just go look at these https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/1784043/. It will deflate your hopes like it did to mine. Some guy had to exchange 5 times. They are pumping them out so fast the quality is garbage. Lets be happy we get the second wave..

i bought a $5 ghetto Otterbox with belt clip. **** aint bending on me...

I just played with the Iphone 6 plus at the At&t store. I have to admit, the performance wasn't what I expected. It was ok but not as fluid as I remember the Iphone being. I pulled out my OnePlus One and it seemed to operate smoother and my friend agreed. I had heard that IOS 8 wasn't so great but it seems to run well on my Ipad Air fine. The screen didn't seem to get as bright either.

I still can't wait to get my phone but my excitement level has went down slightly. I'm hoping it was just a flaw in the display units, unfortunately it was this way at best buy also.

Anyway, I don't want to bring anymore negativity to this thread LOL, it was just an observation. I still really want this phone.

Yeah, a lot of us are getting that. But the "Order Status" over the web still says the same thing.

Interesting...

AT&T will charge you a restocking fee ordered from AT&T I believe you can only send it back to them also think you can refuse delivery but you'll still get a restocking fee
 
Mine finally says processed on the 877 number, can anyone confirm 100% this is good before I get my hopes up too high?
 
Moved from 'back ordered' to 'processed'!

6+ 64gb SG
3:30am EST
Confirmed at 7:28am

Been 10/2 through 10/13 since last Tuesday.

I see the light, friends!
 
Called 877 number this afternoon, said back ordered. Called 5 min ago now says being processed.

Crossing fingers and hoping, but at least it a change after about a week.
