Well guess I will stick to ordering from At&T after this, didn’t realize that Apple favored IUP over others

Don’t draw conclusions from the tiny sample size here.

Plus, IUP orders were a mess. Carrier connectivity issues. Citizens One connectivity issues. The fact that the App Store app was the only place pre-approved IUP upgrades could complete their order and for many people the iPhone App Store was the last store front to work. So if Apple is attempting to improve IUP dates (which we don’t know for sure) that could be why.
 
17-24 changed to 16-24 here. Is that a joke? (carrier is at&t, 256gb, ordered at :10 due to app being late, IUP)

While all that is well and good, I too had issues with the site and app loading and the. Issues with the verification of At&T servers and yet I don’t see either of my orders budging a bit. I mean it isn’t like just iup orders had issues.

My third order was an att upgrade and new IUP. It also has 17-24. I also had a connection issue with att for verification but it went pretty quickly into a reservation and I got that email right away. That system seemed to work well.
 
Seems like my andecote theory might be right.....maybe. Seems like att is on specific batch. It’s possible they are pushing verizon and tmobile up first...just a theory.

My Verizon order hasn't budged. Hung at the account verification and eventually sent me a reservation email two hours later.
 
confirmation came in a 3:11, joined the IUP, att 256 space gray. First date was 11/3 when I began ordering, ended up at 11/17-24. My date hasn't changed and status still says order in progress. I saw somewhere where an order was bumped today from 11/17 to 11/3 this morning. Any possibility of our dates being bumped to 11/3 still? Never preordered an iPhone before

11/17-23?

Unfortunately. It's actually 11/17-11/24. I'm not saying you're wrong or anything, just that my order doesn't fit that. I also did the survey where I explained that I couldn't access the store on any device for several minutes. I don't expect that to change anything, but of course I wouldn't mind if it did, haha.

For an 11/3 delivery it would have to flip to PFS yesterday and be on it's way from China. I feel like the earliest anyone will see is 11/10.

Not true at all. They can ship a phone here much faster than that, even from China. Also there are distribution warehouses in Mt Juliet TN, Reno NV, Ontario California, just to name a few locations where I’ve had products dispatched from before.

No change in my delivery date. still showing 11/17-11/24

Placed an order for a space grey 256 GB TMo through apple.com at 12:23 PDT. Opted for full payment option. Received a confirmation email right away followed by a survey link 2 days later. No pending/pre-authorization charge as yet and my order shows "In Progress" since the 27th.

I dont think will be noticing any movement till the 3rd.
