Finally had to add a line to get my phone in store now am waiting ffor a upgrade reversal so I can cancel my other line. This has been such a nightmare to get this phone and it has some pretty bad lag when it boots up to home screen gets stuck going into standard mode and it did look bent out of the box. But after laying it flat on table it appears to be fine.
Got a tip for us?

I ordered a SG 128+ on 9/27 with a shipping date of 11/5-11/14 I was hoping to get it before my cruise but did not get it. After coming back it is now in back order. But before then it always said preparing to ship. I hope I get it before Christmas.
I'm getting a bit curious if AT&T will ever ship my phone, or any of the other 128G SG 6 Pluses.
I have two iphones on my AT&T plan at the moment. I wonder if I should just cancel the order and order through Apple. Or, even switch carriers. I've had good service with AT&T for the last number of years, but this ordering fiasco is simply not acceptable. I am not sure if I should wait out the ship window until 'Black Friday'. Or just go ahead and cancel now.

I have a 5 that I'm waiting to get my credit on. I'm now over a week into my shipping window and still no word. 6+ SG 128 ordered early 9/19.
That's what I'm really hoping for. Also secretly hoping that they're fixing the memory issue at the same time, so we'll get perfectly running phones when they come in, whenever that actually is.
If that's why they are making us wait forever, then why not just tell us? Wouldn't it make the wait a bit more easy to deal with?
3:1 6 to 6+ Ratio
How many people have been seeing the news about the 6 outselling the 6+ and thinking, "Doesn't availability come into play here?"
I'm not sure how well I'll keep it together if I find out AT&T is stockpiling 6+ SG 128's for Black Friday instead of sending them to people who have already committed to a purchase.

The Ala Moana Store had a few... When I talked to them Sat Night, they said they had several 6+ 128 Silver.
Talked to the Apple Manager about that... He said they had no idea about MLC versus TLC. So, I would say that the new phones are not being shipped with MLC yet. It'll probably be January or February when they change over, and they'll just have everybody come in to a store... I hope they would rather get all their orders fulfilled before putting out the problem and starting the line at the Apple Stores.

So.... the AppleStore in downtown Honolulu has the 128GB SG 6+.... gonna try to get a copy!! Wish me luck!
Nope! No Joy!
PS: The Apple Store website did say that there was another one available on Sunday after the Apple Manager said there won't ever be shipments on Sunday. Of course, when I did stop by on Sunday, the next manager told me it was a problem they had been dealing with all day... Apparently, it will say that it is available all the way up to the last page.
PPS: The first manager did say that they (HI Apple Stores) should be getting shipments in of the 128 6+s from 11/14-11/21. Here's hoping I'm one of those in line!
I wonder if it would help if you had completed order numbers from some of the users on this forum to back you up when you called AT&T.
I really feel bad for you on this one, my order aside. I know about situations that tie your hands--I'm in one of those. No real alternatives to my corporate Premier order, placed by a corporate department.

How do you know if you're Premier when you look on the site?
Why is iPhone Silver referred to as unicorn?

Thanks for the sympathy. I've called and chatted with CSR and get no where. Yesterday, I sent an email to Randall Stephenson's office describing my plight. I haven't heard from them yet either.
I've been waiting for this order to get the trade-in bonus for my iPhone 5, but I'm 2 hours away from any apple store. They just started showing stock of the 64GB SG 6+ this week anyway.
I got my tracking number but when i put it in the USPS website, the tracking number its not recognized. I remeber reading about it but cant recall if the package was still sent of what. If someone with this issue could shed some light, i will appreciate it
Still in back ordered hell.... Past my so called, will ship in 28 to 35 business days.. Week 9 of waiting.... This is sick....
My sympathies to all of you who are forced to order through corporate premier accounts. A two month wait for a phone is pretty ridiculous - even more so if the delivery date you were promised has been missed.
While I certainly share your problem (Premier), at least you are still within your shipping window. Mine was 10/31 - 11/11, so I am already 6 days past my window, and I am also in backorder hell. Chats with a few CSRs are, of course, no help, though both were hopeful that it would ship within a few weeks of the original promised ship date.
Since we seem to have seen a large influx of 64GB models last week, maybe this is our week for our SG 128GB 6+ models. We can only hope.
No iPhone 6+
I ordered my iPhone 6+ 128 GB on 9/23 from AT&T...shipping date was 10/31 - 11/11. I haven't received it as of 11/17...ugh!!! Stopped by AT&T store this past weekend, & they couldn't give me a date...WTF?!!!

Entering week 9 here as well. No line of sight to having my phone anytime soon. Now reading someone throw out there that ATT is hoarding these for Black Friday... If that's the case, I would lose it.
Apple will meet the shipping window they give you, thats the difference. Mine was 3-4 weeks and it shipped at 2 weeks and 5 days, ordered on Oct 25th and will receive it Wednesday. Thats for the same phone you're waiting on.
