I'm So sad about my phones lol
Ordered on the 22 because I was still undecided about getting the phone (stupid I know ) I didn't think the wait would be this long when I placed my order in store he told me 14-21 days but guaranteed me it would be before then now when I called at&t their saying 21-28 business days So not cool that's way to long for me I was better off camping out. I ordered two white 16gb in store
 
I got off BO this morning, and now status just changed to shipped via FEDEX!!
Delivered by 28th 3pm !!

Ordered on the 15th at noon in store
 
I'm trying to be patient here but it seems like I aint never coming off backorder. Pre-ordering on the 17th was the biggest mistake I coulda made
 
I cannot believe this goat rope, never, never again will I order in advance.

Some phrases come to mind:

Att is more screwed up than a turned over tackle box.
&
Att is more F'ed up than a football bat...
 
Well... I am still on backorder, so far I have been on backorder for 8 days since I got my conformation e-mail with the wireless number on 9/17. I am only counting Monday-Friday as business days.

The iPhone I ordered is a black 32gb. If I knew more people would have ordered it I would have gone 64 black or white. But I was thinking that they would make less of those. Meh. I am not good at gambling or guessing.
 
Finally replying to this thread using my iphone5 so it was exactly 12 days from order date and 12 hours of CSR ranting...
 
Did anyone else know that you can't do FaceTime over 4g if you have unlimited data? I don't want to lose my unlimited data and switch just for this feature. Anyone finding a way around this?

And

9/14 order 32gb 730pm ordered in store.... Still back ordered

Jailbreak, then download 3g restrictor???? Hasn't been tried yet....

There is already a lawsuit pending over neutrality... Doubt if we will win though...

The 3rd email was indentical to the 1st.
 
Preordered 9/14 @ 5:40AM.
Apple finally processed my order on the 22nd and prepared it for shipment.
Then they shipped it on the 25th from china. It was scheduled to be delivered on oct 1st but ups is doing an early delivery tomorrow.
 
Shipped!

64GB Black, ordered in-store at about 14:30PDT on Sunday, 9/16. Email before I got home.

Moved off backorder sometime in the last 3 hrs. No further email... fingers crossed for tracking soon... since I'm moving this weekend. :D

Shipped Fedex for delivery tomorrow by 15:00. Still no further emails.
 
How many of us are left that ordered on 9/14 that are still on backorder?

I ordered at 6:00 am on 9/14 but my order status page shows it didn't go through 'til the 18th. EXTP889987. It's a new line so I'm guessing they texted my non-existent phone a bunch of times telling me to accept the T&C and then just did it for me on the 18th.
