UPDATE: Both have shipped! No email but can see on AT&T.com. Have FEDEX tracking numbers and est. arrival by 3pm TOMORROW.


Changing from backordered to "being processed" on 877# is absolutely the key! I had to wait 20 hours from the time I originally heard the change....but it happened for both phones. Can't freaking believe it. Hope every one of you is next!!

THIS!
Confirmed for me as well by around 20 hours by my measure also. Finally Premier space gray 64 plus is on her way to me!
 
I see them finishing up the 2-13 Oct people tonight and getting us our phones before the weekend. At least that's what I keep telling myself in order to prevent getting any crazier than I'm already at. Adding to this: Got my case on Monday and it feels great. NOW IF I COULD ONLY PUT MY FREAK'N PHONE IN IT THAT WOULD BE GREAT!!!! LOL

iPhone 6+ 64G SG
Ordered 12 Sep @ 2:50 CST
status: preparing to ship since the beginning
Est. date of delivery: 2-13 Oct from the beginning
Order #: 1012
877: backordered

What ever happened to those "5 planes" that came in today?
 
Anyone in my situation with a Estimated Ship Date 11/09/14 - 11/27/14 with a shipped confirmation? SMFH!!

I have for a iPhone 6 Space Gray preparing to ship. I think what's happening is some are being shipped at a given time and when they can get it sent, they will. What's your order starting with?

Mine is with 1019 so I'm guessing the next few days. Either way when it does ship, it'll be overnight.
 
New member here. Thank you for all the useful information here!

Just got my shipping status change from 10/2 - 10/13 to "pending confirmation".

Ordered: 09/12 at 1:30am MT
Premier
6+ SG 128GB
Order # 10141XXXXXXXXXX

Finally!
 
Don't worry, with my luck, I'll be here waiting long after my supposed 10/2 to 10/13. My luck with ANYTHING being shipped lately is horrible.

Apple case: Not shipping until October. Um, why?
Other case: Missed delivery date. Going on two weeks now. (Thanks Spigen)
iPhone: Everyone gets dates moved up and phones delivered, even those that ordered a week after me.
KT Tape sends me a sample that's to be delivered today: USPS lost the package.

I'll be right here with ya. Backordered4Life. :mad:

Alright peeps, looks like I won't be alone.. We still got a good little gang left. Nice we can be the Backordered4Life crew! Woop woop!! backordered4life! Lol
 
I did sign up with FedEx delivery but when I logged in my account there was no shipment. When I clicked on the tracking number, the customize delivery button was gray out. Any idea?

I had to specifically add the tracking number to FedEx Delivery manger before I could customize it. You've probably worked out your problem by now, but maybe this will help someone else. At the top of Delivery manger I clicked the button to add shipment, entered the number I got from the att.com site and then after that I could customize it.

Those people who got tracking info..they charge your account simultaneously???

Mine was shipped at 4:00pm est, but so far no charges.

ATT has done this iPhone release thing 7 times. you would think they would have it down by now.
Still waiting for shipment.

Exactly what I thought today when I was talking to a CSR who kept saying that they keep getting better with every iPhone pre-order. Really? You've had seven tries to get this right. I work in IT, and if I kept failing after 7 tries, I doubt I'd still be employed.

I'm really sorry. I dropped back in specifically to look for an update from you. I really freaking don't understand what they did with your order.

I feel the same. I just don't get it. :(
 
Who will be left here tomorrow??

I am 3:40 AM Order
6+ 64GB SG
Email at 8:03am

NOT changed to Order is Processing!!!!!!
Is it getting close or am I here in hell through the weekend?

I'm still here. Premier. 2 iPhones 6+. Both SG. One 16gb and the other 64gb.
Order numbers: 1014 & 1018. Ordered back to back
 
Well I don't know if this is anything or not. I have called the 877# at least 4 times today. I figured I would call one more time before bed. My regular reply has been "your order has been back ordered and will ship when available". But the last call of the day it has changed to " your order is being processed with a ship date of 10/2 to 10/13". Any thoughts on this?

I was able to customize it but the hold for pick up and other options were grayed out. I called Fedex and they told me the package can't be held for pick up until after the first attempt.

That's a good sign. Approximately 20 hours after the 877 number dud that to mine it just shipped with tracking this evening! Start a countdown. At least two of us here had this exact same scenario
 
Called several times today including now before bed and 877 still says backordered :(

6+, 128, gold. Ordered 2:50 CDT with email confirmation almost instantaneously. 10/2-10/13. Still.

If it is anything like the rest of ours, you will be getting tracking info within 12-24 hours. Keep checking like a mad person.

You will get tracking information tomorrow. The same thing happened to me last night at exactly this time. I'm getting my phone tomorrow.
