I put in an order for the exact phone on the 13 and got 11/7-11/28 shipping dates. I would feel lucky if my dates were that ranfe

If I were you, I would be so upset! What region do you live (if you don't mind my asking)? I am in Central Texas and am wondering if they ship "X amount of phones" to certain parts of the region based on the history of past orders, etc. I just spoke with AT&T and they are giving me the same old story about "sticking to the estimated ship dates". They did say that if I cancel, my reinstatement of my upgrade will go into effect immediately, but it takes 24 hours for Apple to acknowledge it on their end. I might just cancel mine right now and place the order with Apple.
 
Got it.

Ordered 128 SG 6+ at 12:30am for presale and it finally arrived today via USPS. It's big! I have it plugged in and restoring from a backup (had to run the update to 8.0.2). ATT estimated 10/2 - 10/13 shipping and the came through on that at least for me.

So, with that, I'm outta here! You're going to like your phones when you get them.
 
I can understand why people are annoyed but cancel my phone. No!

If one lives close to an Apple store and can get their phone much sooner, why not? For me, it's not about having the coolest phone to flash around. I didn't budge when the 5 came out and kept my 4s and was just fine. I am at a point where my phone has limited storage due to all of my pics/videos of my German Shepherd - lol! It's not running as fast and efficient as it once did, so my urgency is more of one in need of a newer phone. If it weren't for my prehistoric phone, then I'd just sit back and wait another 2-3 weeks. :)

Congrats!!! Have fun! :)

I'm in Boston and no store has had any stock to speak of. I've seen some but mainly 16 (too little storage) and most have been for sprint. I have to order with Att because I need to trade in my phone to be able to upgrade. I'm not too bummed or actually upset but more impatient than anything else. It'll get here in time and these forums definitely help pass the time!
 
Not good day. Internet outage. No wifi. Wish I had a big phone today. My on:cool: only Internet is on my phone.
 
Crazy that sprint at least by me has 16gb plus in stock in all 3 colors.... Not that I want a 16gb or sprint, but still.... It's crazy the demand for the ATT version

So, I just got a shipping alert via USPS that doesnt quite make sense to me.

I ordered 3 128 GB SG 6+ on 9/12 at 11 am, ship estimate of 10/31-11/11.

Have called the 877 number and still says backorder. Website still preparing to ship.

Here is the info I am showing for the tracking. Does this at all look like it could be one of the phones. I assume they are shipping individually. Was hoping to compare with others who have seen theirs ship via usps and how their tracking looked.
I am not aware of anything else due to arrive, 2 day priority and the 50 dollar insurance added on caught my eye as well.

I doubt that is your phone. Mine was insured for $100.
And I think most are shipping from Fort Worth. Where are you located?
 
HELP GUYS!!!!

I ordered on the 12th around noon. Ever since then, my order has always been on 'Preparing to Ship' on site, backordered on phone. Shipping dates are 11/09/14 - 11/27/14. Today, everything changed to 'Canceled'. Called AT&T and they said that it was probably an error. Has anyone passed through a similar situation? :$
 
Northern Virginia. Yeah. I assume it will come from Ft Worth as well. Though was told by CSR that they ship from all over the country.

I am guessing it is not a phone, the lack of information on USPS site as to who its coming from is kind of weird. I guess I can only hope(but not too much lol)

Hopefully it is, but I hated to see youi get your hopes up,.

I think most of them were insured for $100

Oh I wont. I am all to familiar with ATT and their preorders. I am fully prepared to get it with in my estimated window at this rate. Only thing I can guess if it is is that it is either insured for less because ATT is getting cheap and dropping the amount they are insuring it for. Or because it is shipping with in the state that it is lower(not that that should make a difference)
 
you just might be the only one left. my dates are 10/31=11/11 ordered on the 12th. 128 sg 6+ still backordered.

This sucks

----------

I don't think I'm ever gonna get my phone. Ordered the 12 @ 3:02 am ship dates never changed. And I did say about 50 pages ago I was gonna stay till everyone got there phone
 
Late orderers?

It's great that most of the pre-order people got their phones. I'd like to see posts from those that ordered later maybe?? Ya'll still waiting with earlier dates I feel for ya.

I ordered from San Diego on ATT website on 10/1 Gold+ 64 shipping dates are 11/10-11/19 I'm prepared to wait it out so...
 
I'm still here, the 877# changed to being processed yesterday but the online order checkers & the 866# have not changed as of this morning.

6+ 128 Gold ordered 3:24AM CDT 9/12

Same thing with me ordered on the 12 at 11 am. 877 says processes no change anywhere else. Is it normal for the 877 number to say processed but shipping dates to remain the same?

Still waiting, 6+ 64, GRAY. Ordered on 9/12 @ 4 pm est, 11/09-11/27 shipping.

Everyone has been saying that once the 877# changes things move quickly. I have seen no evidence in my case to support that.

This is my first & last preorder & my 2nd & last purchase of an Apple product because they left their indirect customers hung out to dry.

I'm still using my 4S, I don't get new until the old no longer does the job, so by the time the 6+ gives out I will have done enough research to settle on an android or anything but an Apple product.
 
Still waiting. 877# changed from back ordered to processing a few days ago, but still giving 11/9-11/27 ship dates.

Ordered 9/12 430pm est @ AT&T store
128GB 6+ Silver, Premier
Northern West Virginia

I really hope you get yours soon! This could be some good luck for me - I ordered the same model 9/13 same ship dates
 
How many of us 9/12 people are still here? If you are and wouldn't mind putting your model, color, time you ordered, and state. I would like to put some stats together

I have said since day one there are orders that got screwed up and even though the system shows the order its not making it through for some reason. I would like to see if its all in my head or did people just give up and stop posting

I have SG 16gb, 10/12 at 9:30 am, in Maine and never received email confirmation. Ship Dates are 10/31-11/11 (which we now know mean NOTHING)

Thanks to those willing to post their info
