For the people that have a 10/2 to 10/13 ship date, what does your online status day? Mine says, "In Progress". I am gonna hashtag twitter #iPhoneOct2 and post any movement if you care to follow and contribute. I think this will make it easier to follow progress of others in same boat.

Online Status Isn't anything special to go by, its all about the 877 number. One that changes you will then see a change online usually within 24 hrs
 
I ordered 6+ 128gb space grey 3:45am pst 9/12
ONLINE says "In Progress: 10/2 to 10/13 Our warehouse is still processing this item for shipment."

(877) 782-8870 days "back order" as of this post. Original conf. Email said said 14 to 21 business days.
Why would there continue to be retail shipments when preorders aren't filled?

The status on the 877 # is what you should go by. The online status "in progress" means nothing. If the 877 # is still telling you backordered, you're probably not going to see your phone tomorrow.

This. It's about the only solid thing we can go by.
 
I have called the 877 number several times and instead of the automated response it has gone to an agent 3 times. I don't want to stay online indefinitely so I've hung up?
 
Getting really tired of this ****. So while new customers are able to walk in and then out with a new phone in expected to wait over a month or more. Why? Because they already have my money.
 
The phone are ther other part haha. And going to a resort in the poconos.

Haven't fallen off the 10/2 date yet so there is still hope.

Good time of year to be going. :)
So you did get a head start on next years anniversity after all. lol
seriously have fun and good luck hope the phone ships soon. :)

so far my dates have stayed the same 10/31-11/11 supposedly 2014 lol 128 sg 6+ ordered 09/12 11:30 eastern time.

I'm hoping to have the phones before we go. Watch they will come when we leave haha in two weeks
 
I just recieved an email from ATT reminding me to buy new accessories for my new phone. The new phone I'm still waiting for.
 
I'm stuck in backorder hell and AT&T sends me an email just now:

"Enjoying your new phone? Don't forget these accessories!"

Uh hey bishes, no I'm NOT enjoying my new phone. I do wish I wasn't roped into them I'd tell AT&T to sod off.
 
So clearly no movement today for anyone....

I think I will just let go of any expectations of getting it prior to the last date of my shipping window (10/2-10/13). Maybe that will help with some of the frustration.

This whole experience has been very disappointing.
 
I remember reading earlier in this thread that a CSR told someone that they were expecting a large shipment of phones to go out on 10/2 and 10/14. I'm hoping that they've got their hands full getting ready for tomorrow and that's why there hasn't been a ton of movement...hopefully tomorrow our prayers will be answered! I'm not counting on it though...still stuck in the dreaded end of November group...:mad:
 
Yeah I got the same e-mail too. I almost feel like replying "what new phone?", but I know it's a auto generated inbox. Oh well.
 
No buano. Luck has been pretty good lately especially at the casino

Thats good to hear. I have not had any luck at a casino either. not that i have been to one very often. lol maybe you can play for me. or pass me the winning lottory number will do too. lol

This made me laugh a lot!!!

So I decided to try one more CSR before I gave up for good. This is by far the most interesting conversation I've had. At this point they may just be messing with me, but this CSR confirms that there is a big shipment going tomorrow...

This dude seemed a little too positive...but I reallllllllllllllly hope he's being sincere!
 
Can you give an update on if you spoke to order management and if so have they given you any insight? THANKS!

I didn't. I have several times in the past and they have given me the same 10/2 - 10/13 estimate as the website shows and not an ounce of additional information. Didn't see the need to waste my time...

Long time lurker here and I finally decided to post. So is this big shipment only for 10/2 - 10/13? I've been stuck in 11/9-11/27 since I ordered.
 
A tip for those of you who might not know. If you already have a nano sim from a previous phone, it will work in the new Iphone 6+.

While I was at the Apple store, the At&t rep who I was on the phone with overheard me talking to the Apple rep about trying my sim card in the new Iphone. She said it wouldn't work and the iphone is different. That didn't sound right, because I had used the same sim card in several Android phones and even an Iphone 5S. From my understanding, a sim card is a sim card, you just have to have the right size, and even then you can use adapters.

When I got home and tried it, it worked, no calling or activating. Data, phone calls, everything works.

I only asked about those dates because that was my shipping window. Sorry :(
