I actually was going to initially wait a few months to get the phone (this is the first time I will ever own a "current" iphone version. waiting is not a problem for me), but it is clear from the ordering experiences, AT&T did not have a single iphone 6 Plus available to ship for launch date. I haven't heard of a single person getting one. If they had zero, this information should have been known. Additionally, when you order and they tell you 14 days -- then they switch everyone to 2 months back -- you feel like you were given bad information, possibly on purpose, in order to get your money. They've already drafted my account but I won't get the phone til November. These are legitimate reasons to be frustrated. No one's head is exploding. Complaining about the complaining is obnoxious in its own right.
I ordered 2 iPhone 6's one for myself and one for my wife. I did it through At&T because we changed to the Next plan.
I ordered mine (64GB Silver iPhone 6) at approx. 1:00am MST.
I then ordered my wifes (64GB Gold iPhone 6) approx 10 min later.
Both email confirmations said they would be shipped 9/17-9/18, but now mine has changed to 9/23/-10/01. Not as bad as some people that I have read, but still, I got up in the middle of the night specifically to get my phone shipped to me on launch day, and now this? Anyone talk to AT&T and find a solution?

The carriers have, and have always had, their own stock of phones for launch. One selling out doesn't help the other and AT&T doesn't get to pull more phones from Apple just because they are out. They have to order more to be manufactured.
So you were 1 of 2 that got through on Apple,congrats. I got through at 255a on AT&T site while a gazillion others were,well,I'm sure you know by now re: the Apple site.
So AT&T had what? 10 phones? I have to think I was one of the first people who ordered. Makes 0 sense.
I don't think they had any. Order confirmation received at 2:58 AM EST and it may not ship for 2 months.
I'd guess they had around 30K phones staged. Even if they had 200K, which is possible, Apple sold >2M 5S's on the first day and most were first thing. They could blow throw 200K in a few minutes easily.

Same thing here. Ordered at like 2:48 AM ET, prior to 3:00 AM, and I have a delivery date of 10/2 to 10/13... That makes no sense and I'm hoping its an error with their inventory/order system. Also ordered one on Verizon and it is set to arrive on 9/19. Both 128 GB 6+s
My account was charged this morning at 9:30am for a phone I'm going to receieve accourding to ship date in 6 weeks. LOLOL
Ok, so you made the decision to order from At&t instead of waiting for Apple to figure out/fix website.
Sorry, I would never mess with carrier sites. Never have , never will. Been on this board a long time (have owned every iphone) and each year there are the same issues with carrier sites. Never fails
Crap!
Placed my order 3:10AM EST on the AT&T website as the Apple Store & Apple Store App would not work- just got a confirmation and an expected "Ship Date" of 09/23-10/02. What is that about!? I even got notification they charged my card also!!!

On chat with someone at AT&T...
I don't understand how I can place an order BEFORE it was supposed to go on sale (5 min early) and not get release day.

Good idea,limit yourself to 1 option. There is never a problem with Apple,except for last night of course.

I did the same. I noticed as I was placing the order that the shipping estimate was 2 to 3 weeks. I don't know that AT&T had *any* 6 Plus available.

Yes, I went with 1 option and it was clearly the best option. How many people are complaining about their order through at&t on the message board? TONS, same way every year. Apple worked for me, I'll have mine on 9/19...When will your phone be delivered again?
Bottom line, you went with At&t, your choice and decision.

Yea, so you think lol
My order number starts with 1010(premier) and the email says on or around 9/19 but expected shipping date 9/23-10/2. Ordered at 3:11am EST

Okay dude, you're awesome and we're not because we looked for different options. Enough already. Enjoy your phone on the 19th. I'll enjoy mine when it gets to me...not that big of a deal but you gloating about the fact that you did the "right" thing is childish. Go play with your ball.
