Oh my gosh! I've never commented on a forum. This is hilarious and so entertaining ! Thank you all! I'm also still awaiting a tracking number. Ordered iphone 6+ 16gb at 12:30 AM on the 12th. Still says Oct 2-13th #

Well that's most likely the date you'll be getting the phone you ordered. The 6+ is back ordered until then. I myself preordered the 64GB model but am going to the AT&T store in the am, have my preorder canceled and get the regular 6 64GB model since i'm without a phone. I think i can do without the huge screen size although it looks gorgeous! I've been on this forum for the past 2 days and decided to say screw it haha
 
Told that if you are stuck in the 10/2 ship for a plus, date thats the date, will not be shipped sooner you will not receive an earlier shipping notice. You can cancel and take your chances in line tomorrow for a miracle left over device, will be difficult to cancel your preorder in store. So be patient in 2 weeks u will have your miracle device. I ordered a 64 GB silver 3:05 shipping date 3/2...

It's very easy to cancel in store. If not, all you need to do is pick up an extra phone at full price, "return" it and then repo it as an upgrade. You can activate any phone once you have a plan. You aren't married to the one that comes in the mail, and if you return an unopened box to ATT (from ATT), they won't give a crap if it's a different serial #.

Worst case scenario, you end up with one you can return at no cost, or immediately flip for profit.

In fact, as many people have learned on this thread, you can get customer service to do almost anything if you are persuasive enough. In the end, the customer is always right.

I actually have a 6+ being delivered to me in Chicago, today (Friday). Due to an unforeseen event, however, I had to skip town to my Podunk hometown. Fortunately, it's the kind of place where I can show up at ATT at open and be the only one there. Checked with the manager and while he couldn't say how many pluses, confirmed I would be "fine". I plan and buying it as a free option.
 
Just press the quote button under the post lol. i've been lurking this forum since the 11th. What is your current status?

I've only been lurking since this afternoon. Still waiting for a tracking number. Still saying preparing to ship. I did call the premier customer service and the lady I talked to said that it would be sooner than the 2nd but that's all she could tell me. #
 
Yup! That's what i was told. He said last time for their iPhone 5 launch they didn't exhaust their inventory until about 2PM (considering it's the lower end of town)and that i should be having an iPhone 6 by the morning!

That's what I posted earlier this morning... My friend manages a corporate store and said as of this morning they had 70 iPhone 6 and no 6 plus! He didn't sound too optimistic either they would be getting any.

I was told "your phone says 14-21 days, so expect it before the 14th day" That's next Friday. I would have gotten gold if I knew Space Gray was this popular. I ordered at 2:46 EST smh. Early and i'm still not up for shipment.
 
Everyone should go check out Sprint's (SPRINT FOR GOD SAKES) forum. EVERYONE IS getting tracking numbers for iPhone 6 PLUSES. It's sad. It makes me so so sad and ANGRY. I HATE U ATT!

ahhh then it all makes sense! at least they'll have that many units available. and they won't be getting any (at least this store) until around thanksgiving. so i'll be lining up in the morning. I desperately need a phone. lmao are you still on preorder?

I got the silver one. I ordered at 12:30am pacific time. She told me since the east coast got to order first that that's part of why mines delayed.

Doesn't matter, since its Sprint they won't have service to use it anyway.
 
All you guys getting 6 Plus with only 16 gigs, aren't you concerned about running out of space?

See you in line tomorrow!
 
Seriously. I had to put all my binge watching on hold, my wife started having an affair on me due to lack of attention, and my kids are calling the neighbor "Dad." To top it off, my dog just bit me.

I'm just holding out hope ours are on those planes that are about to land and they'll be magically teleported here by tomorrow.

Hahaha, made my night.
 
Well it's a phone so just wait and see! It will be more fun to read the comments when people get phones with dead pixels or bugs in them! I know it's not funny, well sorta is lol, but here we all are waiting and waiting and there is always something wrong once in awhile with the first batch and forum opens with people screaming about quality control lol!
My only gripe is if I don't get it tomorrow I'm just calling att and telling them to waive my activation fee! Done it before, be nice and they will do it! Say you were in a store and said it was ok, but could approve it and told you to call them due to this mess! Always works!

I'm pretty sure everyone was able to preorder at the same time minus the cheaters that ordered up to 20 minutes early no matter where you were it just depended on your time zone so east coast would be 3:01 am that it started as opposed to the west coast which started at 12:01 so same time

Not at all. I don't often store videos or music on my device - just photos/videos i've taken, some game apps/puzzles, and anything I use for work/school. I listen to my music library through Google Music or Pandora, video with youtube, and if I travel for an extensive amount of time I have my iPad or laptop.

I've never reached a point where my 16gbs were not enough.

They are going by when it was processed. It's a terrible situation. The site went live at 2:39am EST. The prices kept disappearing and reappearing. Any of the 800 numbers giving you any info?

Well ios 8 takes up 8 memory units so it's technically only an 8 memory unit phone

P.S I can't type the letter between f and h just so you know

The 800 numbers say back ordered. But when I was talking to an actual person she said it wasn't. I don't know ## lol
 
Remind me why I ordered the 6+..? I'm starting to forget, lol!

Hey, that might be fun to switch things up...! Anyone want to share why you're getting the new iPhone?

I'm getting the 6+ 128GB because...
- big ass screen
- love that it's so thin
- the most radical iPhone design change since the 4
- better camera with ois
- phone is faster, better LTE call coverage
- faster WiFi
- battery sounds like a BEAST
- I like the landscape view with dual pane, that is damn cool
-LOVE the recent contacts avatars at the top of the screen when you double click the home button
I message now shows contact pics
-wow, there are a lot of reasons.. <sigh>
