So AT&T charged my card today for the phones, but my order status still shows backordered and not yet shipped.

Does this mean they will ship today/tonight? We were scheduled to leave for vacation (1 week) early tomorrow, but I may be able to stick around a while longer to pick them up if they come in tomorrow morning.

When does FedEx usually deliver overnight boxes?

This all depends on your location and the route the delivery truck has. Mine was shipped on 7/29 from Ft. Worth to Memphis (Fedex hub), then out here to Sacramento on 7/30 at 7:45am. It didn't make it to the ATT store I ordered it from until 1:29pm.

Only thing I can suggest would be to F5 that Fedex tracking site every so often. When you see it hit "Delivered", make a bee line towards that ATT store, and get your phone.

Ordered mine yesterday afternoon. Hopefully it will get here before August 16th, before I goto chicago!

i cant figure out what im doing wrong. ive tried all the different ways and it always says that my info isnt in the system or something like that. i ordered on the 26th so i kno it should atleast be in the system.

The white phone I ordered for my wife last Tuesday shipped Saturday and will be at the store tomorrow (Monday). Glad I didn't pay for faster shipping.

So for the white phone, it will be 6 days from order to pick up.

When checking your order status from the AT&T site where you put in your order number use the AT&T store's zip code instead of your zip code then it will pull up your order status.

No problem i had trouble with the same thing at first since i only live about a mile from the AT&T store but its in a differnet zip code.
 
Ordered mine (16GB Black) on the 21st and it is finally coming in tomorrow! It shipped yesterday, but since they do not deliver on Sundays I have to wait until Monday.
 
My qty back ordered changed from a 1 to a 0? Does that mean the phone will be shipping out soon?? There are about 60 phones in front of mine that havnt shipped yet...:(
 
How are you guys checking where you're at in line? I have gone to this page:

https://www.wireless.att.com/order_status/order_status

And have tried searching via Order Number and Wireless Number, and it always says this "We're sorry, but the information you entered was not recognized by our systems. Your order may not yet be available or the information may have been entered incorrectly. Please try againf"

You guys are using the "Order ID: #" correct? And I've tried with both the store zip code and the billing zip code which is my zip code, nothing works, so what the hell am I doing wrong?


Andrew

EDIT: Nevermind, it seemed to just finally work for me, but what the hell does this mean? How can I tell my spot in line from this:

Pretty much the same scenario as me. Ordered on the 26th and delivered today. Going to pick up at lunch. Fingers crossed that it will be a perfect and crack-free (the cracks in the plastic, not drug related :D) for the months/years to come!
 
I ordered a 16GB Black on 7/26 and am still waiting. The status for back-ordered changed from 1 to 0 yesterday and is now back at 1. However, seeing that there are others who ordered on 7/26 who have now had theirs shipped, I have some hope that mine will ship today!
 
their shipping is half-assed at best. Unless certain phones are more accessable to ship, why does it look like they are randomly shipping orders out? smoe before me in line are getting phones, some ain't

seems everyday the order status changes for me, from 0 back ordered to 1 several hours later.

don't get it, but whatever. as long as I get my phone before the 29th I"m ok

I would try calling your AT&T store I had noticed that last thursday they shipped everyones iphones that had ordered on 7/21 except for mine and someone elses so i called on friday and asked about my order and they said it was in a pending status but on my side it showed backorder still, later that night it had shipped i dunno if something got stuck or my AT&T store had something to do with it getting shipped out.
 
It Shipped!! :D

I order on 8/02 and it shipped today. Will get here tomorrow, 8/08. Only 6 days, thats not to bad!!
 
I ordered mine on the 9th and it still says "in progress" for me. I hope it comes really soon! I see some people say 6 days and others say 10 so maximum time of me waiting is the 19th which is good news. My credit card hasn't been charged so I know it hasn't been shipped yet.

I think this Friday or Saturday would be fair...has anyone tried calling their AT&T store and asking if they had an iPhone anyway to pick up (even though the one they ordered in their name is coming)?
