Have any 11/17-11/24 shipments been bumped?

Exactly, and you (and I) will likely get yours (ours) the same day he gets his. Him getting his earlier doesn’t mean we get our phones later than was promised initially. The next batch will likely cover the next month of estimated ship dates. Hopefully, those of us with original 17-24 dates will likely get moved up some more, but I’m trying not to expect it so if it does happen, I’ll be pleasantly surprised. Doesn’t stop me from checking the Apple app a gazillion times a day, though. Lol. Anyway, after the horrific events in NYC (where I’ll be next week), I’m mindful that there are more substantial concerns in the world than my phone. I’m trying to have more perspective than I had last year for the iPhone 7+ launch when I was in similar position.

so the last 2 years that i ordered, i would receive my phone a few days prior to the quoted time from Apple. I'm guessing the majority of us with 11/17 delivery dates will see our cards getting charged around the 6th or 7th of this month (few days prior to apple shipping them out) and then receiving them around the 15th-18th or so.

I don't think IUP got priority. My husband and I have it and we've only moved one day. Not worth getting riled up, to me.

Not for nothing, but I'm a 40 year old woman. Just noting differences in the carriers and timing.

Me: 256 Silver IUP Verizon 11/17-24 now 11/16-24, ordered :11ish
Husband: 256 Space Gray IUP Verizon 11/17-24 now 11/16-24, ordered :19ish - errors on the app
Father: 256 IUP T-Mo IUP 12/3-10 now 11/16-24, ordered 6amETish

Just got off the phone with a senior advisor regaurding the shipment status of my phone(They were spouse to follow up days ago) and I asked about the error that (Most of us) had regarding the issue.. he explain that there would be plenty of phone getting shipped along with the pre-orders that we should be seeing a update in dates in the forth coming with some that could still get "moved" as early as Friday-Sat shipping... I then asked about Sat Shipping and he said it would be approved according to dates received(I'm guessing he is talking about when the order was placed).. He also said not to worry that we should see the phones before the 17th as they just plotted windows based of the volume not so much the window.. He did say that calling will do nothing about getting yours in sooner or a spot and that its all based on volume no one has a "Advancement" everyone is getting treated the same.. They understand there was a big issue with the servers but there is legitimately nothing he can do to make the process faster.. It was a win-lose situation.. He offered me a Wireless charger though because of the issue's that occurred .. :)

It makes sense that calling wouldn't help. It probably hurts more than helps since it ties up more human resources.

For my iPhone 7 Plus I used istocknow to find a phone at my local Apple store that Sunday after launch. I feel like I could probably do the same thing and get the X way before my 17-24 delivery dates.

I’m in the IUP and haven’t been bumped at all. 17-24 since I pressed the button to place my order. It was 11/3 before I pressed submit though, and then the next page said 17-24 :(

Unbelievable you guys. I ended up having to cancel my iPhone X order. When I realized I wasn't getting it on launch day, I had a complete meltdown and had to spend the money on a therapy session package instead.

TechnicallyTee, I am still waiting for your YouTube vid on your opinions of this thread, and you know what I mean, haha :D:p

Anyways, still no movement on mine 256 space gray, ATT next, reserved around 3:14, but encouraging news from others not just in this thread, but from other sites/threads, I fully expect the 17-24 people to get theirs around 10-15 range.

I created this thread as a purpose to notify and discuss those with 17-24 delivery dates and if they got bumped. Sure, a place for people to vent, but my primary purpose was to create a spot for people to share their experiences and check for users with similar happenings.

Then don’t buy anything from them. Vote with your wallet.
 
I'm in the same boat as most of you, except I am not in the IUP. I ordered the 256 Silver for ATT around :13 because of the site delay on Apple, and used their installment plan so I wouldn't be tied to ATT's contract. Got the carrier check delay, blah blah blah. Didn't get the email to confirm my order until noon later that day. This is my first time ordering a phone through their website...probably my last. The only other device I've ordered this way was the MacBook Pro about 4-5 years ago. I just don't understand why our dedication to PRE-ORDER results in us getting our devices after the 3rd.

So while I had 2 pre-Authentorized att iPhones that I had to order thru Apple, I did try to upgrade a third thru Att and I could not get thru. I was in a wait the the session ended and I had to wait all over. I tried with 2 devices.
So just saying that carrier order wasn’t necessarily any better.
