well, maybe you didn't intend to be, but from the outset with the "didn't you get my question?" and then ignoring her initial question and simply restating your original question doesn't exactly come across as friendly.
What if she didn't get your question? It happens - but it's not their fault. IDK, maybe I am seeing something that's not there, but to me it was a standoffish at the outset.
I asked because she said how can I help you with out already referencing my question I submitted. I simply didn't see she asked the next question as I had already hit sent right when she replied.
In any event I am happy for you that you will get your phone on Friday. That's what it is all about.

OK.
Sorry for the false accusation, but I see a lot of people abusing those on the other side of the monitor. Maybe I am just jaded.

I understand a lot of people do give them flack, but I thanked her in the end. Usually the best way to get answers from these people is to be nice.
I have always ordered through Apple and have always had good luck for launch day for shipping and never worried
This time was different. Ordered through AT&T. So even though we have all the erratic shipping dates, they will eventually come on launch day or the week after. This has happened exactly like this previous years?
it is absolutely amazing to me that this thread has reached 88 pages on something none of us have any control over. We've placed our orders and now we wait that's the plain and simple of it... Yet, myself included we keep coming back trying to out guess and over analyze the process. There's only 2 outcomes, we get our shiny new toy on friday or we don't....
We know that the package will be ~1.2 lbs when it ships... We know the 6's are looking like they will definitely make it out, and it sure looks like they under estimated the 6 pluses and a few lucky will get them and most will have to wait.
Oh well, off to hit the refresh button on att.com, ups.com and macrumors.com to try to quell my anxiety
^this!!!!
Was likely a temporary hold to ensure the funds were available at the time of purchase. It will go through as a permanent charge when your phone ships.
I don't understand how this system works..
I ordered my 64gb space grey iphone 6 at 2:51am (est)
Been on preparing for shipment for a few days now, estimated ship date is 17-18 of September
Still nothing on ups or fedex

It's preparing for shipment because it probably is. They aren't just going to ship it over the weekend when it's not supposed to be delivered until Friday. Too big a chance of it getting out early. More than likely it'll ship when it says. It probably does have it's tracking and all but won't be uploaded to ups/fedex until they actually pick it up. I'd imagine most will start appearing tomorrow.
Can not get through to ATT customer chat, it just brings the page up....was wanting to ask a simple question....maybe their tired of us asking them about shipping info.....i just wanted to ask something about my plan....lol now i gotta wait until the hype is over to ask a simple question
Mine did and then my card was just charged again an hour ago. Look for the second charge, that means you're in business. Prior experience with AT&T and pre orders makes me not believe anything their website says haha
From my past experience It depends on your location the speed of shipping they use. For some people they will do typical ups ground. From my past experience with At&t orders(4S,5,5s) They have overnighted the phones so I have gotten no update until the day before launch day.
This is probably why mine says "preparing for shipping".
With iPhone 5, it arrived a day earlier than the supposed launch date. May be Apple is trying to avoid that from happening with iPhone 6?
Same date here. I was one of the ones who got in ten minutes prior to the midnight launch. AT&T's websites and dates are totally unreliable. I would bet my life savings that I am getting my phones delivered on launch day.
In the past (e.g. iPhone 5) AT&T used both FedEx and UPS. FedEx shipping info. showed up on Wednesday.
Just saying that for those who have "Preparing to ship" status today and nothing showing up on UPS MyChoice may be getting theirs FedEx with shipping info. showing up tomorrow (Wednesday).
