AT&T Pre-order status iPhone 6 Plus (only)

Oh believe me, I DEFINITELY agree. But according to the rep who probably shouldn't be giving out this info, but I think he was flirting lol, long lines at store create media hype, when people come in the store they buy even more accessories the don't need, they have the potential to be talked into changing their plans to more expensive ones, there's just more money making potential. I think if there was concern about that, they should have just not done pre-orders all together. I got screwed too. But my friends and I are making it an event and trying to make the best of it. Best of luck to you!

Smart but dirty business practice, IMO.

Exactly. And it worked fine.

I stay in philly.. Nothing yet on UPS, FedEx or AT&T.. Still says preparing to ship - 10/2 - 10/13.. I did not get any emails that you said above and my charge was never dropped.. I ordered around 2:50 am EST, 128 GB space gray..

Anyone with shipping experience knows what would be the cutoff time to still receive the phone tomorrow?? Hoping against all odds.. Have to watch others getting their phone and turn green and blue with jealousy.

I work with shipping a lot. If I was to overnight something the cut off would be tonight before last pick up. But I don't know the contract they have with ups and FedEx. They may be able to get it done into tomorrow morning. Doubtful though. Usually when it gets to a sort facility it doesn't move from there till the next day.
 
Just got an email from AT&T and got excited for ****ing nothing.

Sorry you're just getting this. Most here have been in the boat for a while.

Pre-order officially canceled and they were able to restore my upgrade immediately. I am currently first in line at my local AT&T store (yes I'm one of those crazies). I've watched both the FedEx and UPS trucks deliver a large quantity of pretty narrow boxes to the store and the store rep has confirmed there WILL be pluses available (no idea how many) and there will be no in store pickup for those who pre-ordered. If it matters, I'm in a relatively small location. Now just pray for me over the next twenty hours y'all! Good luck to everyone and here's to hoping we all have new huge phones in the AM!

Same situation. I'm first in line at the biggest att store in pensacola. I have a plus pre ordered. I've seen a FedEx guy bring in a couple of boxes. Manager said he would let me know by tonight if they have any pluses so I don't have to waste any more time here. Did you cancel your pre order today only after they let u know you will get a plus in the morning?

Hey! A fellow Pensacolan! Are you at the 9th ave location?

Oh I'm so waiting for it. I believe that the later I receive the email the later I get the phone.

Depressing, yet potentially logical conclusion.

However, AT&T has been anything but logical in this whole process, so who the hel| really knows

the handle is @ATTBusinessCare and the other one is @ATTPremier once you reach out they DM you to ask for a contact number where they can call you.

I tweeted/DM'd her at 12.34pm she called me at 12.43pm if you reach out to them they get back to you, but they are spitting out the same bs you get when you call.

Thanks, figure it was worth a try.

Believe it or not, when I pre-ordered the iPhone 5 at Best Buy and they didn't get enough in, Radioshack was there for me.

Me too. Honestly for iPhone 4 and iPhone 5 i have preordered at Radio Shack in Store and picked it up launch day in-store no problems ever. But my dumb-ass decided to do AT&T because of the $200 trade-in. It doesn't seem worth it at this point.. Also if no one else wants to trade-in to ATT, glyde.com has a pretty good iphone trade-in
 
Ok, so I just got off the phone with two of the largest AT&T stores in atlanta and each store is expecting not more than 200 IP6+ across all storage amounts. Looks like short supply of plus and waiting in line will likely be a bust.

I actually cancelled before hand because customer service basically said from what they knew, there was no indication that mine was coming and since it was still able to be canceled, that means it hadn't shipped. I also had pretty much decided that I'd settle for a 6 because my mom (who has AT&T and ordered 10 hours after me) has plus scheduled for delivery in the AM but thinks it's gonna be too big for her so she was willing to switch with me. But the rep came out and confirmed to me awhile ago that they had pluses, so I think I'm good. Hopefully they have the color and size I want but at this point I'm nowhere near picky.

Also, I'd be hesitant to cancel in store. I went in and the rep couldn't even see my order. I went outside and called customer service and they canceled it and restored my upgrade in minutes.
