Yeah me too, it sucks. I ordered a few minutes after you and still nothing new on my end. I contacted At&T support yesterday and they said that they are shipping them out when orders received, but that clearly doesn't seem to be the case.
Got a tip for us?

Called a different store today and Rep was really ****ing helpful. He told me I was not getting my phone until late october early november if I ordered when the retail stores opened. He also told me to called 611 and talk to someone who knows what they are doing because ATT CS should be able to view my order just as much as the reps in retail stores can.
I asked if they are expecting stock in store and he said yes, but very limited and don't know numbers until thursday night after they close
. He said if I'm early i will most likely get a plus, but he doesnt expect them to be available for long.
So I called my original store back and got a rep who was helpful. This guy said my expect ship date as of right now is END OF NOVEMBER. He also said they are expecting stock but don't know how much and etc. Both agreed 6's will be available no problem, which we all knew. He also told me I could cancel my order and I would have to before i pick one up on friday. So im going in tonight to do just that. I hope I don't get the rep I got on monday. She obviously fed me a bunch of ****. She also told me I couldnt cancel.
Now calling 611 from work and then later today canceling my order. Time to load up the nexus 5 and charge up the DS. Haven't camped out since black friday 2011.

Maybe they are, but the system being displayed is screwed up due to the overload
My Buddies order: two 16gig 6 plus shipped
my buddy got this a few hours ago
he ordered late in the day on Friday the 12th.
So he ordered about 10 hours after the opening bell.........
He was originally scheduled to get his order around Thanksgiving.

lucky him, 16gb might be easier to get. I'm thinking the highest demanded 6 plus was the 64gb space grey
He also got 16GB versions. I think 64 and 128 are more popular versions. By the way, you blacked-out the order number in one place but left it at the top.
still waiting
first post on macrumors...
thank you eveyone for the regular updates... it has been really interesting reading through everyones experiences...
IP 6+ SG 64gb ordered thru AT&T on 9/12 @ 5:30AM PST
Initial shipping estimate was 11/09 - 11/27. Then got bumped up to 10/13 - 10/22 last weekend. No change since then
Nothing on UPS or Fedex either!
I still see 2 pending charges on my CC - one for $467.99 and another for $1.
Does not look like I will get it by Friday. But hoping at least for next week. Lets see!
Congrats to everyone with shipping notices who will be getting their phones this Friday.

Orderd 6+ 16GB Silver at 3:10am ET on ATT website. No change from 10/2-10/13 dates yet
Same numbers here but a 64GB SG 6 Plus. No change in the 10/2 dates or preparing for shipment message. Ordered two phones at about 3:30am. By the way, both pending charges dropped this afternoon.
How late in the day did he order? Everyone has heard my sob story of actually having to cancel my 9/19 delivery of my apple order to ordering with ATT at 3pm Friday I'm in the end of November delivery and I've had no change yet. Any chance I might see a bump too you think?

I received my confirmation from AT&T premier on September 12 @ 1:57am. Have seen the described change from 10/13-10/22 to 10/2-10/13. The premier site says status still pending while the general AT&T site says preparing to ship. That is sure a long time to prepare to ship. I will be on the Next 12 and the device is 6 plus space gray 128G
Similar situation for me but no ship time yet. Ordered 2:20CST, 64GB Silver 6+, NEXT upgrade, original ship date 10/13, switched to 10/2.

I'll throw in my stats
Pre-ordered a 128GB 6+ Space Grey around 12.35a PST Was originally trying on the Apple site, but finally gave up and then when I went to AT&T for some reason it kept saying I was ineligible to upgrade (even though my phone is a 4S bought on launch day). Anyways, it eventually got sorted out. Didn't receive my confirmation email until 4.43am
Was originally told November, then last weekend it flipped to 10/13-10/22. Then yesterday it went to 10/2-10/13. Had pending charges on my Amex, all are gone as of this morning. Status is still 'preparing to ship' on MyAT&T site, and 'preorder processing' on the Premier site.
Hoping for a miracle that I get in Friday, but it's looking grim.

Hey everyone. I posted under a different user before but have lost the password. Anyway I ordered a 128GB Space Grey at :30 after midnight. My conf email came about 7 AM central that day. Anyway, I don't believe Space Grey is really an issue at the moment or anything else I've seen on this thread. By now ATT has their count of how many they have gotten. It's likely that the website updates via a batch process as opposed to real time based on what we've seen. Now considering the photos of pallets of phones, it stands to reason that same color/space combos were loaded onto pallets together. It also stands to reason that as the pallets are received by say AT&T, people pallet by pallet allocate the tracking labels to the phones. If pallet A was in this morning's batch those orders updated. If Pallet B missed the cut off then that group would be in tonights wave.
What does this mean? It's quite probable that the people allocating the tracking labels simply haven't gotten to the Space Grey Pallets yet to start labeling them. If true they'll come in a wave of them as the batch process updates. What time was the update yesterday? These types of processes tend to run scheduled at a specific time so it stands to reason that the update time we saw yesterday would be the same times as today (about). Meaning if the updates last night occurred at around 6PM central, 6PM central is when I'd expect the next wave. I'd expect about 8 hours worth of iPhones to be included in the next wave. Just a theory from a programmer
Since people post at random times throughout the day that their order updated you could feel this is incorrect, but we don't know when the update took place compared to when the user has checked which might explain the discrepancy.
