I ordered 16gb White and my order's still processing and backordered 1. Ordered in store at 9am CST. U?
I came to that conclusion earlier today and cancelled my order
Pi preordered the retina MacBook from apple on release and apple was much better at handling the order
At and t sucks !
Anyone ordered instore and already shipped or still processing? Please reply with time and model ordered. Thanks! 
Seems like those who are getting UPS packages got tracking information but not yet shipped. (Object was assigned and scanned but is still in facility)
Those who are getting Fedex packages are shipped (left facility) but haven't yet received tracking.

Nope, I have fedex tracking number, and it has not shipped yet. It's still in progress.
Nice try though
Ordered through FAN / Premier portal @ 7:58 CST on 9/14. Got email immediately, but another on 9/15 saying terms were accepted (must have been done by someone at Premier, since that did not happen by anything I did / clicked).
Was billed on 9/14. Then auth fell off credit card yesterday. But went to 0 back ordered yesterday as well, then "shipped" today but no tracking info.
So I have progressed up to "shipped" - just waiting for a tracking email or #.
16GB white seems to be the one in this shape from most of the posts I've read.
I didn't want to make a whole thread just for this simple question but, I'm not planning on transferring anything over to the 5. Since I ordered through AT&T, my number is already on there and everything right? I'll be able to start using it as soon as I turn it on? Or do I have to activate/go through any kinds of red tape.
ok so get this.
according to the "manager" of the supervisors....
"anyone who preordered an iphone from att will have to wait 14-21 days to receive your new phone due to a "massive mistake" by att."
: The shipment dates are between 10/4 and 10/15 if that helps
: on just mine or all iPhones?
: im confused
: This is what is appearing on your order
: However the 14-21 days is true for all early orders

As much as it does seem like this whole ordeal is a "massive mistake" at AT&T...there is no way that a "manager of supervisors" would even been allowed to make this statement. Or if they did, they were shooting from the hip. This kind of bad press would have to be handled by levels above a "manager of supervisors".
No problem, huge LSU fan here myself, from NOLA, but I'm living in Hell-abama right now. Just kidding, it's not bad here except during football season where one teams mascot is an elephant and I have no idea what roll tide has to do with an elephant and the other team is a tiger and they yell war eagle.
White iphone 16 gb and 32gb iphone 5

Yea and my grandmother had wheels so that makes me a trolley car and I've seen dinosaurs and I French kissed kink kong and slept with Pamela Anderson all in the same day
At and t will tell you anything to get you me and every other apple nut off their case
Not to call you out too harshly, but one thing we've seen from all of the chats/convos with reps over the past few days is that they never ever fault AT&T for any delay or order error. We just get an "It's unfortunate this has occurred" with no real reason or explanation. Just sayin'...
basically told me that all the ordering before 9am thing is bs, and that everyone that preordered from att will be receiving phones from 14-21 days. that noone will be receiving one sooner.
not down for me...unless this is some big joke... ive cleared all browsing history just to make sure its not picking up results from earlier in the week... but nope...still on backorder
