To quote the mediocre Matthew berry, "this is soooooooooooooo frustrating.

I ordered a 16gb sg 6+ about 20 min after pre order opened because the site crashed on me. I got confirmation at about 2:45 am cst so 45 minutes after pre orders started. I am still in back order while others who ordered hours and even DAYS after have received their phones. I have been stuck at 10/2-10/13 from the beginning and if I don't get it by 10/2, I am going to cancel my order and switch to a new provider.
 
6+ 128g Silver... Waiting as well....just called 877 number, still "back ordered" :(

Let me squeeze the bitter berry a bit as well.... If I where you I wouldn't cancel.... Do you really want to start this crap all over?

I suppose not, but there is a tipping point where it becomes more about principle and less about actually getting the phone. I'm getting dangerously close to that....
 
And I AM still waiting for any thing other than the dreaded "your order is on BACK FREAKIN ORDER! :mad:

ME TOO! I cannot stand that woman's voice. LOL...UGH..... I hang up right when I hear the words "The items in your order are currently on...." I can't take the word "backorder" any longer. :mad::mad::mad:

Definitely know what you mean. I sooooo would leave ATT, but where I am they get the best service. It sucks. Terrible customer service. They can get away with it in my region since so many people have to use them. GRRR :mad:
 
Premier... 6 Plus 64gig Space Gray.

Est Shipping 11/9 - 11/27

Notified on Friday that it shipped. :)
I still get backordered when calling and both websites state the same.
Preorder Processing

Except AT&T is stating preparing to ship.

The tracking number is the number associated with an item in your order that is being shipped. Click the tracking number to go to the carrier's site. Pending Shipment
Carrier:

I tried 877 one last time before I try to get some sleep...no joy. I hope I do not hear that voice in my dreams... :(

I ordered on the 13th but people were getting their phones in line at the Apple store today which kinda pissed me off. I wonder what the preorder and inventory numbers look like which are causing these delays.
 
7 inbounds from anchorage from ups and one inbound from fedex. Two have also landed within the last two hours by fedex hopefully some of us get tracking today. 128g ip6p gold

Do we know if att is assigned inventory when the planes land in Alaska or Kentucky? Trying to figure out when I might switch from backorder to processing.
 
Thank you

For tracking the planes for us, it makes me feel a little better knowing that my phone just might be on one of those planes. :cool:
 
Progress! but when should i expect it?

YAY! yesterday to 877 number updated to "being processed" and at night i went to the ATT site and it said "shipped" with a UPS code. when to the UPS site to track and it states that the Label was printed 9/27. No estimate of delivery but shipping is "ready for UPS" being sent "next day air saver."

should I expect it on monday or on tues?

I just so happen to have Monday off so it would be perfect!:D
but my rational side is saying " you are going to get it tues" :confused:

The suspense is KILLING me~ i'v been waiting to get this phone forever and esp since my 4S' WIFI died on me in July. :rolleyes:
 
Yarrrggggg!

I was just checking the flight aware website and all the lanes going to Louisville are flying right over were I live in SE MO! How's that for irony!:confused::rolleyes::mad:

I don't think UPS does Sat. pickups like FedEx does so it will probably get picked up Monday and you'll get it Tues. Not sure why some are shipping UPS and some FedEX. Mine was picked up by FedEx in Dallas/Fort Worth yesterday for a Monday delivery.
 
Should I cancel?

Was thinking about canceling and just going to an AT&T store and just buying the phone. Anyone think that's a bad idea? Or should I just keep waiting?

My shipping date has been 11/9-11/27 from the start. I ordered a little late on the 13 th but I ordered a 16 GB gold. I haven't seen very many so I wonder if that is why I got such a late delivery date?:rolleyes::confused: or is it just the date.

I ordered same phone on the 12th about 40 mins in when it went live with an email few minutes after confirming my order. Still haven't received my phone or tracking. When I call its tells me back ordered. #####

Can you just go to an att store and buy a 6 plus? My stores local to me just chuckle when I ask for stock. They say mid Oct maybe for pluses

Horrible idea. I know around me no one has any pluses. I have like 10 apples that I can get to with ease and none of them had any pluses since after opening weekend. AT&T had only 6 phones.

Your absolutely right I should just hang in there
It's just soo frustrating hearing "backorder"every time I call the 877# then when you get your bill and realize your paying for something you don't have :(

Now that I think about it it probably is low stock in a lot of stores probably even the apple store they probably just have the regular 6

I know the feeling. I call atleast 5 times a day randomly and refresh the att order page all the time. Idk what I'm gonna do with myself when it's finally here. Lol
 
i signed up for next and ordered online and i have to pay the tax...$72.00. but i am in California, some states dont require tax

I also switched to Next but my state, Georgia apparently doesn't charge tax on the iPhone when ordered over the internet because while I did have to give a credit card number it showed $0 due today when I ordered.

Might I ask what DH is?

DH is a common internet abbreviation for Darling Husband. Theres DW (Darling Wife), DD (Darling Daughter), DS (Darling Son), etc.

Thank you for tracking these. It always gives me hope. Someone posted aircraft tail numbers the other day and I tracked them on Flight Aware. But alas, my iPhone was not on that plane. Imagine how positive it would be if Apple allowed people to pre-order and actually provided tracking for that iPhone from manufacture to delivery.
 
Bith if my phones are going to be delivered tomorrow. My wife's shipped out Saturday and my phone on Friday.

64 gold and sp.

Ordered on the 12th by 3:45am.
