AT&T Pre-order status

Just talked to the "Premier" line and was a dead end. The only piece of information I can offer is this: AT&T Consumer and AT&T Premier were each allocated a certain number of phones - they didn't come out of the same pool of devices - which is why we are seeing some folks getting phones shipped before "Premier" accounts even though they ordered later. She said that the consumer bucket of phones was much larger than the premier bucket.

This is the first reason for the delays that I have heard that makes any sense. Unfortunately - back orders are being filled in the same manner - allocated by Consumer and Premier.

So - cancelling and getting in line might actually get you a phone sooner. If you can stand the lines...which I have no intention of doing. My 5S will serve me fine for a couple more weeks.
 
I ordered an iPhone 6 from the AT&T online store at 11:45PM on 9/11 and I got the order confirmation email at 11:47PM.

The order showed as Picked Up by FedEx at 10:03AM on 9/17 in Ft Worth, TX with an estimated delivery by Fri 9/19/2014 at 8:00 pm in Seattle, WA.

As of 3:00AM this morning the 18th, it was still in Ft Worth, TX with a status of Shipment information sent to FedEx.

I talked to a AT&T rep at a store, and he said that he has been setting up shipments of phones to arrive Friday (9/19) and Monday. He said the ETA dates we got are just something they put up. My estimated date is Oct. 2nd - 13th and he said ill get mine tomorrow.
 
Ok, they just charged my CC and sent me the coupon code to get the $300 for my trade in (which they said I would not receive until my oder shipped) but my order is still saying its in Texas. No movement since 4:30 AM today.

Ordered 6 64GB Space Grey. Ordered late afternoon on Friday.

My estimated date was 10/13-31 up until they marked it as shipped last night. It left Memphis on it's way to my greedy hands sometime tomorrow.

Mine is currently in seattle, (6+) it took a few hours for it to show up as in seattle. It should probably be in seattle hopefully by midnight

he was able to pull up your order and guarantee you're getting a phone delivered tomorrow? you have tracking details?
 
So I pre-ordered my iPhone 6 64Gb Space Grey at the AT&T store. They were like: " yeah we can have it shipped to the store, it'll be quicker." That sounded pretty decent since I'm away at work and didn't really want to drive to my house 2 hours away when I didn't have to. I get an email from Fedex last night saying that its being shipped to my house.:mad: I call the AT&T store and they said they fixed it and it will ship to store. I had a bad feeling so I called FedEx to see if it was just an automated email, Nope. It is getting sent to my house. I know theres some iPhone madness, but come on. Anyway on a lighter note, my iPhone will be home tomorrow after I get out of work! :D

Cool. Looks like the 6+ are on a different shipping manifest then. I'm guessing my 6 is in the process of being shipped with all the other 6's.
