Have you tried signing up for UPS MyChoice? See my post from the last page, took me 5 minutes and I got to see my tracking # and delivery date of 9/19. It's the only way I could get tracking info, my AT&T status shows the same as yours...ship date of 9/17-9/18 delivery on 9/19. I was a little concerned seeing some people reporting getting 'bumped' out of their 9/19 date, but with the UPS utility, you get a tracking # and it verifies your delivery date if there's a concern. Just an option
Got a tip for us?

It's none of those for me (and I don't have premier). I have three reference numbers, one is a 20-digit #, one is a 9-digit #, and one is 15-alphanumeric (with two dashes). I don't recognize any of them.
Not sure what to believe. The website says same October dates. The 877 number says backordered. The 866 number says it's shipped.
The 866 number should be all automated, right?
I enter my web order number, it makes a gurgling noise, I wait for a while, and then it tries connecting me to a live person.
I think killed it!
Yes, I signed up for that and see the tracking info for the one that says 9/17-9/18 but nothing yet for the second order. I placed the orders minutes apart but the rep told me that the second order did not go through for some reason, so she pushed it using another system and guaranteed that it would arrive on 9/19 as well. Let's hope so!

Yes, it's automated. Try again. I think you can also search by phone# and zip code.
I tried a couple times and searched by phone number too.
I really should resign myself to the fact that the Plus won't be arriving anytime soon.
iPhone 6, 64GB, Space Grey was originally said to ship in "7-14" days, then 10/13-10/31 and as of two seconds ago 9/23-10/02. Do I still have a chance of it getting even closer to the 19th or is this as good as I'm going to get?
Mine consists of the following format in the Reference line:
Line 1: 20 digit number, starts with 0000 - # doesn't match anything related to my account or order
Line 2: 9 digit number - # doesn't match anything related to my account or order
Line 3: 13 alpha-numeric in the following format "A123-BC-4567890" - # doesn't match anything related to my account or order
I'm surprised nobody has started this yet, but here's a quick Google Form that I created to help track all of this data. The more data we have here, the more we can analyze and predict.

Bumping this post so new-comers will see it.
Yes ! kindly help the ones who are unable to get any tracking info from UPS mychoice by giving the specific reference number you are getting while checking your shipment details.
I just called the 866 number to check on my 6+ and it said shipped(yes I know I'm lying..... Though I'm not). I'd give it a check, I have no other information to confirm this at the moment.
(Edited to add)
I also just tried the 877#. It said my 6+ was on back order. When I checked AT&T.com it says preparing to ship with date of 10/13-10/22.

What time did you order?
Around 8 or 9 am Eastern. I then had to call the next day and verify I was who I said I was and then got a confirmation email. I just tried both automated numbers. 877 didn't know where my order was, but 866 said it's been processed and sent to a warehouse for shipment
Shipped
Anyone figure out what time AT&T updates their servers? I know my bank rolls over pending to posted around midnight. I've used my chose and fedex apps for a while now and there sometimes is a lag between label made and server updates (deliveries are usually ~3 hours behind)
For added info
I've order my 4 and 5 on presale day. 4 was though artiste and 5 through apple, unless the 866 is is retrieving information that is 4+ years old, I'm stumped.

Am I the only one that read that post and did not know what the hell it was saying?
Just for kicks I hopped on the old iPhone 5 preorder thread and it was like I was reading this current thread. Same issues. I have a feeling if we got in early enough, we will be playing with new gadgets on Friday!
has anyone had their order number changed? I ordered 64 plus spg at 12:31 pst. got order confirmation email with the original order number then the second email status update. shows a different order number. the order number actually has my phone number in it with letters.
Mine is showing a 10/2 - 10/13 shipping estimate. it toggled yesterday from that date to back ordered then back to 10/2 - 10/13.

Basically no one knows what the UPS Reference Numbers correspond to yet. Thanks you two for posting the format for us! I wonder how they're coming up with them.
