Congrats to all that were lucky enough to get their phones either through delivery or from a store. I think I'm throwing in the towel. It's mid day and still no changes in shipping status. I guess I'm not getting mine until October. So much for a "pre order ", never again will I order from AT&T #epicfailat&t
 
I got a tracking number this past Wednesday. The phone actually shipped on 9/14.

Well that is the difference. A number of us are still not receiving a tracking number and at this point there is little reason to expect a phone today.
 
I was online a few minutes after pre-orders were SUPPOSED to begin. Ordered the iPhone 6 Plus 128GB in space grey through Premier. Have had changing shipping dates. Right now, my online status says "Preparing to ship" with a date of 10/2-10/13. I called for info and the rep told me that he is seeing a November ship date. IF that's true, I guess I could cancel, order through Apple and get earlier (even with their 3-4 week delay).

Premire 6+ people got shafted this year. Im in the same boat and I am very disappointed in this service. It seems like the 10/2-10/13 dates stand. No one from premier has reported a delivery of a 6+. Hope has now left me. Worst part is my 4s broke last night son now I have no phone. oh well...i guess
 
I'm in Philly, ordered my 128 GB SG IP6 at 4:09 AM after haggling between ATT and Apple. Got a confirmation a few hours later stating a 9/19 or "around then" arrival. I subsequently noted my order showed ship dates which were "pending confirmation" on the website and a $1 hold on my CC. Finally called Premier on 9/16 only to learn that my order apparently had never processed and the guy "re-processed" it then. My order date updated to 9/16 and my ship dates showed up online saying 10/15-11/4 (does anyone else have this range??) and it's stayed that way since.

I'm hoping for a surprise but it sounds like that hasn't happened for anyone (yet)?
 
Up until yesterday morning when a tracking # showed up, mine said expected shipping 10/13-10/31. So hopefully for those who don't get it today, they get it much sooner then the date listed.
 
To those of you who have received your phone from Fed Ex how long did it take for Fed Ex to update your tracking to delivered? Just curious if it's worth risking leaving with a 30 min window to see if phone has arrived or not.

10 minutes in my case. I live in a high rise and I saw the fedex truck pull away. Had a feeling I would be getting a notification and sure enough ten mins later I got an email stating the package was delivered. I'll go down in a bit and open it up

Yeah, I'm curious which steps to follow for activation and all that. I know when I got my 5 there were conflicting instructions from the website, e-mail and on paper inside the box....

You should have recieved an email a few hours after you ordered with a link in it to activate.
 
Anybody from San Francisco

I preordered from ATT on 9/13, expected ship date 10/13-10/31. Anybody in the same boat???:confused::confused:

When did you pre-order? I have on my att account "Preorder Processing" with 10/17/-11/6 date.

Does anyone know how long it takes to get a tracking number for a order placed?

I preordered from a local AT&T store 9/12 at 6pm and my shipping dates are way beyond yours.

I'm guessing that I'll get it sooner but who knows.

Carrier: Shipping Date: 11/09/14 - 11/27/14*

I have a ship date of 10/13-10/22...iphone 6+ - two of them - SG & Silver. :(

Side note: I was also told that there is no way a representative can see if you can cancel your order unless they actually try to cancel it. I don't know how true this is, but I've been told that three times now.

I preordered on 9/12 at 3:15am EST. My credit card did not match the billing address on the ATT account so I had to talk to them to fix it. They then processed a 2nd order on my account on the 13th and deleted the order from the 12th. I definitely did not expect to get it today since my order said the 13th, but somehow I did.
 
Well, I am officially giving up not he idea of getting it today or even tomorrow. :( The rep on the phone said mine hasn't shipped yet. Basically told me what I already know. Felt bad for even calling him. Ship date still says 10/2 -10/13. Hasn't changed since Saturday and no email saying anything about it still being my ship date. No my choice, no nothing. Getting iPhone plus Gold 64gb. Ordered 39 mins after open. Hate that I stayed up late for nothing. Oh well! Defeated...
 
I actually tried canceling my order online and it got denied. I tried calling the customer care, had a huge wait (about 45mins). I had to hang up. Will try again calling them monday morning or something. Do you think canceling order and buying at store will be easier?

iPhone 6 Plus

I just called ATT, asking about the ship estimates online, and if there was a chance they were incorrect and the woman said that only the 6's were getting moved up, not the 6+'s.
 
To you October people crying, I would gladly trade you. I'm in the dreaded 11/9-11/27 "Place holder" window. Just remember it could always be worse.
 
Pickup

Hey, first time post for me, but, I had a preorder with AT&T, and, it started with the 10/31-11/14 window, that changed to 10/2-10/13. I took a chance at the Apple Store here, and the mall would not let us in until 6am. So, prior to 8am they started to do the Reservation Pass, however it crashed just as the first group went into the store. Then, I did get a reservation for a 6 Plus, and I chose the 128GB Space Gray. I was number 82 in line roughly by my count, and then they ran out shortly after me. Verizon's were gone before they even got to me. That said, Reservation Pass was a disaster. Also, due to it being launch day, people that are using personal pickup as their option from presale are being alternated with people that waited in line. It took over 6 hours for me to get to the front of the line. So, even though you may have personal pickup, do not be upset if you have to wait. It WILL happen. By the way, I cancelled my preorder, so there is one more that AT&T have to stock.

When did you order? They are crying because they pre-ordered earlier than most and still have to wait a month (unless that's the same for you, then :()
 
For those who had a ship date of 9/17-9/18, and possibly a SECOND email stating that they still plan to deliver on 9/19, but never received tracking. UPS and FedEx just came and left my town and didn't deliver. I wouldn't get your hopes up.

The only reason I can think of why ATT delivered phones to those who ordered after me (regular iphone 6) and not myself is possibly because I didn't sign up for next and I also traded in an iphone 4 for $200. I'm sure I'm not high priority.
