Auero said something about "backordered" via att online?
I cant tell what she means.
Her other posts points to her bailing on ATT, and ordering from APPLE, but it was because of some issue with her order.
I saw nothing about "backorder" so maybe it has nothing to do with a backorder.

he** ;)

What I meant was I started seeing posts and screenshots of peoples orders and they had a 1 in their backorder column, while some didnt. This scared me off but AT&T doesn't let you cancel an order, but instead they tell you to refuse shipment which is just a pain in the ass.

So I was annoyed I couldn't cancel and last night my blackberry starts going off saying they are going to cancel my order because the credit card was declined and if I want to continue, I need to call them to update billing information. I was happy now because I can order with Apple instead and be happy or go to the store, whatever I decide.

The reason my credit card was declinded was because they thought it was a fraudulent charge since i ordered an iphone from apple, canceled and then went to att and ordered so they saved me on this.

I then proceeded to call ATT to make sure their system doesn't try to retry to charge me and the lady said that she could just cancel my order and a few minutes later I received my email saying my order was canceled.

Thats that :) I posted the number in my previous post on where you need to call if you WANT to cancel your other with ATT since they give you such a run around. IT IS POSSIBLE no matter what they say.
 
FYI:

Go to bing.com search ATT WIRELESS

the 35 is still showing up for me.

It finally worked. The previously suggested "ATT" search did not show the Bing Cashback logo but searching for "ATT WIRELESS" did. Thanks.
 
Does this work for pre-order only? Or can you still do if even after the iphone comes out?
 
Cashback

The bing website shows that if you link your bing account to paypal, that you can receive you cash back sooner does anyone know if this is true? Have any personal experience with this? How much sooner can you receive the cash back?

If you are referring to 'quick cashback', then no. The store needs to participate in the quick cashback program in order for you to take advantage of it. Currently, only 2 stores participate, AT&T not being one of them.
 
Success!

I ordered a 32GB white iPhone yesterday morning from the AT&T website through bing.com's cashback program. I was aware that iPhones were on backorder, but I figure I can wait a week or two longer if it means saving >$100.

This morning I happened to check my status at AT&T and Cashback. My iPhone order, earlier marked as on backorder, shows a '0' in the backorder category and the order status is "In Progress." In addition, my cashback status shows $104.65 from a purchase at AT&T as "pending" and I will be eligible to redeem it in 59 days.

Looks like the system works!
 
did you guys know that this doesnt work anymore...I just went to bing.com and searched att wireless and there was no cashback logo, I think the deal is over...anyways can u guys check and confirm this?thx
 
Unfortunately for many customers they have not been reliable in honoring the cashback requests. Please read more about this at http://digg.com/d1wcdx - When presented with the screenshots and evidence from customers at this Get Satisfaction link, the initial response from Bing Cashback has been to stay silent. With only a few customers posting there so far, this is a good strategy for them if they expect this to go unnoticed. Negative experiences please post your Bing Cashback ticket number so they can help you if they so choose. Positive experiences please post so that it can be documented they have already honored this in some cases, and should do the same for the rest of us. By posting your experiences, you help to hold them to what was advertised and remind them to deal with you in an honest manner in the future. Thank you for your help with this.
