Today I officially got lucky!! 
Called the local Target store and they had two AT&T 64GB SG 6+ in stock and the gentleman was kind enough to hold one for me until I got there about a hour later and in 20 minutes or so, walked out with my phone!
Ordered on 9/23, was still in back ordered as today
So you can remove me from the list, and I wish you all the best in getting your phones ASAP!

yeah this is crazy I wish I could climb through the phone and kick ass I had the phone in my hand so close but they would not cancel my order very pissedSo peeved looking at the MAP FULL OF PHONES ALL COLORS ALL SIZES AVAILABLE RIGHT NOW!!!
What is the point in ordering something if some dickweed can go to the store today and buy your phone?!?!?! Meanwhile, you KEEP WAITING until fricken Cali freezes over, or for some idiotic ordering system, aka a Fort Worth monkey on a megaphone, to remember DURRR oh yeah, that there internet contraption wants phones too. Is there an app for that APPLE?! I mean seriously WTF?!?!?!?
For what it's worth, I'm at the end of day two of my shipping window, and tomorrow is Sunday so I guarantee you date three is going to go by without any movement as well. Ordered on September 23, iPhone 6+, 128 GB, in space gray
One Million
Congratulations. This forum thread has passed the 1,000,000 view mark. That is a lot of whining! Ha. More views than all other threads. I hope you all get phones before 2,000,000...
Hats off to Love2bLeo who started all this September 15. I hope Leo got his iPhone by now! I will never start a million view thread.

For what it's worth, I'm at the end of day 41, day 4 of my "shipping window", for a 6+ 128gb SG ordered on 9/21. As the consensus is that AT&T doesn't ship on weekends, I don't expect any movement until at least Monday; day 6 of my "shipping window". For me, the 877# still says "back ordered".
I'm 4 day away from my shipping window... But was hoping it would have arrive before Halloween.. Guess I'll have to actually wait until my shipping window and hope it actually ships...
I'm pretty frustrated right now. There are 3 Apple store with a att 6+ 64gb within 45 minutes of me. But since I have a next plan started with my iPhone 5s. I can't upgrade at Apple only thru att. So I have to wait, shipping ranges 11/19-12/1 ordered 10/10. Att tells me I have to pay off my phone before being able to go to apple.. Another 200+ dollars.
Yeah same here. I was looking at istocknow.com today and the San Francisco Bay area had a whole bunch of them in stock, not space gray but silver and gold. If mine does not ship by the end of Tuesday, I'm going to go down and get one in the bay area, since my grandmother lives down there anyway I'll get to go see her too! As long as there are still some available by then of course! At this point I don't even care what color the phone is, I just want my damn phone!!!
We pretty much have the exact same details only I ordered on 9/20 and got 2 128 GB SG phones
9 days until shipping window. I'm right behind you on that GOLD FEVER

Shipments start moving Sunday Night. Beer Bottles Crossed.

i just reordered my phone and got the same shipping dates! ATT what a joke ! i also got my upgrade ability restored i think ill get my self a 6 plus !
I have been following this thread since the beginning and have waited to post until I was somewhat sure of the progress of pre-orders. I ordered 2 SG 64 plus phones via ATT internet...one on 9/14 and one on 9/16. Last week I suddenly saw a progressive pattern of SG 64 plus rders being processed beginning with 9/12 orders on 10/29 and 9/13 orders on 10/30...I was pleasantly surprised to get a message on 10/31 that my 9/14 phone was processed and my cc was charged. Later that day, I received a tracking number and my phone is due to arrive on Tues, 11/3. It is also out of Dallas/Ft Worth enroute to Philly. If my 9/16 phone gets processed Sun or Mon, than this is definitely good news for all pre-order dates that there is indeed a light at the end of this very long tunnel! Hang in there everybody...don't give up now...we're so close!! BTW my shipping window has always been 11/9-11/27

Agreed. In Store stock seems to be catching up, still no improvement in shipping times from AT&T. Some of the 16GB 6+ models are even down to 3-5 business from AT&T. Too bad there's no chance in hell I'm paying $750+ for phone with storage I could literally fill up in a day. My current iPhone 5 is the last 16gb device I'll ever buy.
Everyone I know keeps to telling me to not cancel my order and wait it out, but it seems pointless when there's 2 Targets and an Apple Store within 10 miles of my house that have the phone I want.
My ship dates are 11/28 to 12/9. 12/9 is 7 and a half weeks after my ordered date(10/20). That's ridiculous when there's SG 64s all over the place now. Hoping for mid-November ship. No phone shipped by Monday 11/24, I'm heading to the Apple Store.

Never really thought about saying something about this until now. Has anybody placed an order, cancelled it, and placed a second order? I have and when I call, it says I have MULTIPLE ACTIVE orders. think I'll give AT&T a call. Like now, on Sunday morning. No way I'm waiting this long and letting something screw it up.
Yes. I originally ordered 9/17, cancelled because a store was holding ia phone for me but they didn't, had to reorder on 10/13!! When I call 877# I get that message too however when I select one of the order numbers it says that order is cancelled. I confirmed with ATT (hoping they know what they are talking about).....
There is away around this. I was in the same situation, I had a 5s and on the next plan.
Yesterday I found a gold 128 at an Apple Store. I drove there and they told me the same thing that would have to pay my phone off first (225.00) if I want to do the 2 year contract, which is what I wanted to do. The 225.00 balance was forgiven when I did my upgrade through AT&T, I was worried that AT&T would not reimburse me if I paid it off at the Apple store. The guy at the Apple Store said he would hold my phone until 9:00 that night. I went to a AT&T store and asked them what I could do, since they couldn't get me a phone sooner. They took my phone in as a trade in and gave me the trade in value. I ended up getting 300.00 for my 5s, which I used to pay off the 225.00, the remaining balance was put on a gift card. Then I went back to the Apple Store to picked up my gold 128, 20 mins later I walk out of the Apple store with my 6 +.
AT&T informed me that I could use the gift card to pay my phone bill.
My order through AT&T was for a 6+ gold 64, but my husband said if they have a 128 available we would go get it, so I could finally have my 6 plus. He's so sweet
Back your phone up before you go to AT&T!
I will never do the next plan again.
So I'm off the list and I hope you all will get your phones soon.

OK you can cancel me off the list of pre-orders!
I picked up a SG 6+ ATT at Apple store in Knoxville, TN yesterday. I was going to get a Verizon one, but couldn't do edge plan with them. I had spoke to two reps previously about switching and porting number and the first guy had ran a credit check to verify everything was good, then on friday called to ask if I would have a temp number and port when ATT contract was over tuesday, didn't know he ran app to didn't pull the first one. SO yesterday in Apple store there was a Third one done had to call Verizon rep closed out two we finished on the Apple store reps phone and bam approved but not eligible for edge.
He had to then quickly get the same ATT version while I called and cancelled my upgrade which went fine, I'm getting happy it's almost in hand. Apple employee goes ahead and starts activation so my 5S is out of service, but BAM when paying for activation and apple care my debit card gets rejected! Call my bank it's red flagged as fraud, so they connect me to fraud dept and rep says well it shows it's trying to be used at an electronics store to purchase something. I said yes I'm here upgrading my cell phone and this is embarrassing. They removed the red flag told me to wait 5 min, tried to run it after 5 nothing s we waited 5 more while I am sitting the like geez how much more is this going to take! finally swipes it and approved and I open box and we get everything restored from iCloud.
Yea was a long morning wondered if I would get it. Have my skin for phone coming this week I stopped at BB and got a holster with case and a seperate clear rubber case fit the holster perfect too! I would like to find a decennt leather sleeve to use sometimes also anyone have any reccomendations for something around $30-$40

Just got off the phone with a CSR and she wouldn't really let me get a word in edge wise giving me information I already know. Total waste of time. They did state I should be getting my email this week stating it is being shipped. Tried to tell her that people are going much longer without any notification, albeit few. Just a total waste of time. Going to just have to play the waiting game.

You and me both! I am not encouraged I'll get anything but madder by the end of this week. I have two jobs and will try and concentrate on those and basically keep myself preoccupied throughout the week. We'll see. At least we have each other!

Lol! True. We're in this together. Hopefully my 20 month old can keep me sidetracked. I swear the day I check my phone and have a shipped email or bitch lady says processing I'm going to have a heart attack.
