Extremely happy for those who recieved their shipments and tracking info today, although the rhyme and reason for how the orders are filled is the 8th wonder of the world. I guess I'll be seeing my phone October 13th.

I hope you don't have to wait that long!! This has been the worst torture, I was having chest pains looking at all of the different sites today! Hang in there, I know it's easier said than done, but hopefully you'll get your confirmation SOON!!! ;)
 
That's been the key so far. My actual shipping info didn't come in until about 15 hours later, but the 877 "processing" status seems to be consistent.
 
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.


Well I am going to try to stay calm. Hopefully tracking by tomorrow, and then delivery on Friday. Hopefully that is, I don't think they will deliver on Saturday.
 
Well, like i said earlier, mine has shipped! But i ain't leaving anytime soon! My wife's 16gb gold plus is still on backorder 10/13-10/22 dates and she just told me that I'm no allowed to leave the forum or the refreshing until it arrives! So I'm stuck in here for a few more weeks #

That's kind of what it's been like here for my household, but in reverse. My husband doesn't like to participate in forums. He reads here sometimes though. I never told him my user name, but he just told me "I bet I know who you are. I saw a certain user name and it has to be you." And he guessed correctly without really even reading my post. I'm not actually that grumpy very often, but when I am, I'm REALLY grumpy...but in a comical way.

He placed the orders and has all the account info but I've been the one following the news here and trying to track our orders because his work schedule the past few weeks left him no spare time. And I had the flu for over a week and a half so I've had little better to do than haunt the forums.

But now, even with our phones shipping I feel a kinship with everyone here and want to see this thread through until we all get our phones.

I do think the long wait did mess with my head a little. It gave me too much time to lose the excitement and more time to build up anxiety that the phone will be bigger than I can realistically manage. Which is weird considering I used to carry much, much bigger phones in the past. Hitachi G1000 makes 6Plus look and feel like a wee baby phone in comparison, yet I wore it in a pouch clipped to my waistband for a whole year!
 
finally shipped

Exact same for me. Checked it about mid-day yesterday and it had gone down to 10/02-10/13 from 10/13 - 10/22. Still pending charge for the full amount on my Amex.

I ordered at 3:01am EDT on Friday (at least that's when I got my confirmation email).

Okay, in AM was preparing as it was from the beginning, then this afternoon says fedex planned for tomorrow.:eek::)
 
So finally got shipping notice today after all said and done. Will be here tomorrow!

Hang in there guys, they're making progress!
 
I've been following this thread since the 19th to see how close I was getting. Decided to join to post this. I just got an email stating that my order was cancelled. Turns out someone cancelled mine by mistake while trying to cancel somebody else's. I called CS and the girl was nice and tried but couldn't do anything about it. Waiting for a call from a supervisor...
Holy...wow...just wow. They really need to make this right for you. Somehow. You shouldn't suffer for their mistake. I really hope they resolve this for you. Please come back and let us know what happens with your order.
 
Question for those shipped after hearing back order changed to being processed on 877. Did it still say shipping 10/2-10/13 after being processed for item number blah blah?

yep, I got that same message but mine shipped this morning early. I think it was just a standard phrase put in the automated message.

Sweet thanks. Hoping to get shipping in next couple of hours, with me being in Austin and the phones 3 hours away in ft worth I might receive it tomorrow if shipped tonight! And I have a day off tomorrow, so I'll be home to get it :)

I'm in San Antonio and mine is coming out of Memphis. Surprised that mine did not come out of Ft Worth since it is closer.
 
Ugh!!! So many of you getting your phones and yet here I sit, with two orders in the first hour, and still stuck at preparing.

More planes on the way, so maybe tomorrow. :(
 
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?

same thing I got last night and mine shipped early this morning. You are good to go.
 
Guess I'll add my info here.

Phone: iPhone :apple: 6 Plus 128Gb SG

All I get is that I can order again. So I go from close to getting a phone ... to the end of the line. I don't intend to let this lie but not real sure what I can do.

It means your phone is likely going to ship tomorrow or Friday. :)

My status also changed from "Backorder" to "it's being processed" and within an hour after that, it shipped. This is for a 6+ 64GB SG through Premier.
