AT&T will never say they aren't fulfilling them in fcfs. I have had multiple reps promise me and argue with me that they are in fcfs.. we all know it's not though.
Such a small size.. I'm actually surprised Apple made the 16. I thought they would have bumped that up to the 32 and did 64 and 128 as well.. By the time you get a few apps, the software, on the phone you end up with like 4ishgb.
What time did you order it and in what time zone? also when did you get the confirmation e-mail?
I just went to UPS and tried the reference search and it says I have a package between the dates of 9/15 - 9/22. AT&T still shows me preparing to ship 11/9 - 11/27. pre ordered on 9/12 6+ silver 64GB. I'm crossing my fingers that i really have a package coming and they just didn't update AT&T site with tracking info.

What is this reference search you... referenced to lol.
Now see that is false advertising where AT&T stated that they are filling orders on a fcfs..apparently they're not but I'm sure they'll argue with you stating that they're not. Just really shady from AT&T's end. Sucks cuz I like AT&T in my area as they have the best download speeds and offer good plans. Verizon has better coverage but I don't like how they "control" you.. Had T-mobile and sprint and wasn't pleased with their cell service either. Just kinda sucks that we are left without our 6+'s. 
I found it on here actually you go to UPS.com and instead of searching with a tracking number you click track by reference and you put your cell number in there. I had to try all 3 options at the top, but I did find something under the mail innovations option. hope this helps you.
Silver 64, still waiting. Ordered in the first hour of official preorder opening time.
Considering just going to Apple here when they open and be one of the first in store. I know their website doesn't have the option for in store pickup but I would be willing to bet Apple has a side stock for walk ins.
I could have bought a 64GB Silver on Saturday morning, as I was first in line by happenstance at the AT&T Store. I really just wanted to try the size of the 6 vs 6+ out... and opted to wait.
Now I STILL have no shipping notification and am regretting not just going for it.

Anyone get a tracking number yesterday/today that was not a premier member? Hopefully now that it's a new work week we will see a bunch of phones go out.
Mail Innovations is where UPS hands it off to your local post office for delivery. That's how my screen protector came. You sure it's your phone and not just a case or something?
Just visiting to see how people are doing. My vanilla 6 arrived on Friday, but I'm here in solidarity with those of you who are still waiting.
If you haven't touched one yet, I'm just saying it's worth the wait. The combo of the new phone and iOS8 is quite a package. Wishing you all the best of luck, and hang in there!

Thanks Randy, that's nice of you. I got my 6 last Friday, and it is great. I love it. Still waiting on tracking info for 6+ though.
Me too, very frustrating. I have been told, like others on this thread all different kinds of things by ATT... It is on its way and should be there on the 19th, its on back order, All iPhones will ship on the 19th etc.
I ordered when ATT went live on their page, about 15 minutes before the official pre-order launch time and immediately got those estimated shipping dates for 6+ 64GB, Grey, 10/2 -10/13! Which tells me that they never had stock or knew, or know now when they are getting that particular model!
Very frustrating and like others will never pre-order on ATT, I should have waited until Apple went live
Ordered 2 phones within the first hour of preorders myself. Both phones 6+ 64gb gold. First one via apple app in the first 15 minutes of preorders. Received that one on the 19th no problem. Second one via ATT (couldn't get apple to go through on the second one). Order completed before 3:00 CST so within the first hour. Received 14-21 days to ship on order. Confirmation email said October 13-24. It was updated a few days later to 10-2/10-13. No changes since last week sometime. Guess that's about the normal right now. Although very frustrating, its nice to know I'm not alone and many of you share my pain.

Totally! I wished I did the same! It's aggrivating that people that ordered the same models way after us are getting their phones now or already have. It's like someone cutting in line.
The only thing I know is that calling AT&T or talking to the chat is pointless. You either need to raise your complaint to the CEO/Presidents Office level or just wait. I still suggest, for those of you who can, try to get one at Apple. I plan on making yet another run to my local AT&T/Apple store to see what they have if anything.. I expect to come back empty handed but we shall see.
LOL, thanks for putting that feeling in words
Imagine standing in line, one of the first and the ATT reps come out and totally look over your head and begin giving phones to those behind you! Congratulations, You have an iPhone! And you have an iPhone! "Oh I'm sorry, you will get yours soon... "And you get an iPhone!"Just went by my local Apple store to see if they have a new shipment of 6+'s and the line is from the door to about 200ft down the street. Really wish I could have waited but I'm on a break from work and don't have the time. Might try later but I think I'm stuck waiting on AT&T.
