Spoke to the Premier rep for over 2 HOURS tonight and couldn't get anything out of them. The $40 "upgrade fee" is silly to begin with and I've never had a problem having it waived before. Tried to complain (very courteously) that I was told an earlier date for my 6+, and the fact that my wife was without a phone all day because the "activation" turned off service on her old phone, but never kicked in on the 6 until an hour into the call.
Got a tip for us?

Where do you look up the order status on the myAT&T app? I can't find it anywhere.
Was anyone able to purchase their iphone 6 through Apple's website using the NEXT program, if eligible? It's saying I'm eligible, but that I cannot do it through the website - that you have to go through AT&T? Despite THREE apple CS reps telling me I could??
Anyone??

It's a good sign, in all respect. I'm putting my hope on the one that's flying down to Ontario for some reason.
i think those planes are carrying phones for those with tracking nimbers on their accounts already that have not been scanned in. Let's pray for the next flights out to anchorage.
well try this tomorrow , I called every store with in 50 miles toady and they were all out of stock but hopefully tomorrow they will get more .
I would assume these are probably for the customers that are getting the Monday delivery estimate. I know with the iP5, I was able to reference find my phone after the Departure Scan in China and discovered the FlightAware tracking. I don't think I got an actual email with tracking until Anchorage.
Got my iPhone 6 Plus on launch day
So it happens that I decided to go to the Apple store in the mall after work to check out the new iPhones. I already preordered gold 6 plus (64) form ATT around 3:20 am on 9/12 and my shipping date was bumped up from 11/9-11/27 to 10/2-10/13 however I still pissed off. So I arrive at the store and I find people in line and I spoke to one of the Apple guys and she said to stand in the line and wait for them to check for me for available phones. It turns out that they had all sizes and all colors when the ATT store told me "We don't have it and no one in town has it". So I ended up reserving a gold 6 Plus (128) and canceling my preorder with ATT. I got my new iPhone 6 plus on launch day walking into the Apple store at 5 pm
. Again lesson learned. DO NOT PREORDER FROM ATT EVER AGAIN.

call the number and follow the prompts my phone was activated in about 5 minutes, power down the new phone and turn off find my iPhone on old phone
What time did you put your order in? That's the exact phone I ordered and was told by a premier rep was supposedly on back order. What ship dates had they been quoting you?
Ordered at 8am mountain time at the local AT&T store bc the shipping situation where I live is screwed up and only shipping to poboxes not home address and ups/fedex won't ship to poboxes. I was orig quoted 9/19 delivery but am not upset about getting it Monday. Reading this thred made me more stressed than anything else in the ordering process.
I agree...getting it on 3 days later is not terrible when you're quoted dates like that. I'm still anxiously awaiting some update but my account hasn't budged in 3 days and I have no faith in these AT&T idiots. Did you get an email or just noticed a update in your order status page?
