They wouldn't just mess up and not do anything about it. I don't buy that nonsense for one second.

They wouldn't just mess up and not do anything about it. I don't buy that nonsense for one second.
How were they allowed to pre order pickup through att? I'm pretty sure Apple was only doing in store pick-ups. Either way I'm not canceling my pre order until I know for a fact they have at least one 64gb + at this store.
Ordered through AT&T, Premier member. 128GB SG 6+. Order placed 3:35 AM EDT 12-Sept. Dates have shifted back and forth but sitting at 2-Oct since Tuesday.
FWIW g/f is also premier member through Verizon. Ordered 16GB SG 6+ shortly after I ordered mine. Been at Delivery by 14-Oct since.
No tracking for either of us.
It doesn't make sense to talk to any of them, no one at AT&T knows anything. The only thing different she told me is that my order was messed up because of the time I placed it and the time I received my confirmation email.
whatever if I don't have anything by Monday when the madness calms down I will cancel my "pre-order" and head to an apple store which I'm pretty sure will probably have ample stock by then.
same here, and I'm one of the few that had a 10/2 date from the beginning.
feel like those of us who truly ordered in the first hour that the system went live (I was about 3:30 AM EDT) are getting screwed.
I actually do believe that they screwed up the initial orders. It almost seems like there's a point where they flushed the system and started fresh sometime in the mid morning last Friday, and the lucky orders that made it through from then on were actually considered first. Then maybe they reallocated all of us seemingly unlucky people who actually ordered at midnight PDT behind the ones that ordered later in the morning for some reason, and we got reallocated when many orders switched to "backordered" and then back to a proper shipping date over the weekend.
I guess I'm just playing devil's advocate and trying to make sense of why the hell I don't have a tracking number yet lol

Hope you are on to something. I live in SD, and still waiting for my tracking info. Maybe if we head out to Ontario and ask nicely?
I have two apple stores in my area, they are insane with lines and I didn't even ask about pre-orders. I have a radioshack and bestbuy both took pre-orders.
That's a terrible idea... whatever stock they have will get sold out within minutes of opening the doors tomorrow morning, and then they won't carry anymore in store until the preorders have been filled and there's a surplus of phones (hard to imagine right now that there ever will be, ha!).
If you wait until Monday to make a move on an in-store purchase, be prepared to only be able to get the 6. After tomorrow, no stores will have stock of the 6+ until late October/early November. I think most of us know that.
It would take a lot for ATT to publicly comment on such a thing. I don't expect it.
Which email did you not receive till then? The first "confirmation" or the second "ATT ORDER STATUS"?
I ordered my 6+ 64gb silver from premier a few minutes after predate started. Didn't not receive my conformation until 4:34am that morning. I am in Jacksonville Florida. I'll wait until tomorrow to complain since the phone still may show up tomorrow. I do not have a tracking number and still says preparing to ship.
Per their flyer the offer expires on 9/30/2014.
Oh I see, you take your phone in and get a quote and then have another 21 days to trade it in? Odd.

That's what I thought. I got in ten minutes before launch and received both of those emails before the midnight launch time. I am still in the 10/2-10/13 ship date status. These reps have no clue what they are saying.
For what it's worth, I have a twitter chain saved from @ATTCustomerCare that told me as long as we Pre-Ordered by 9/30, we are eligible for the trade in offer regardless of when it ships. The shipping confirmation email should have info on the trade in.
If for some reason that's the wrong info (From AT&T? Shocking I know to even suggest it), then I will ask to speak to a manager and show them the proof that I was told I would be eligible for this deal.
