No disrepect, but i believe if you call your credit card company, they will tell you the merchants cannot charge the card prior to shipment. Again, yours is a pending charge, so it’s not yet charged, there is a BIG difference. You aren’t charged any interest (even if you are carrying a balance) until it moves out of the pending status and into an actual charge to your account.

This happens every year...just look at previous years threads and you’ll see for yourself! :)

My phone has shipped meaning the charge my cc received this morning was true. It’s going to pend for a another day or two before it post. It’s the same thing that happened last year with the 7+.

Oh cool! I’m assuming it wasn’t originally dated for delivery Nov 17-24? I guess that’s why I assumed it hadn’t shipped considering that’s what this thread was about.

No change for me I wonder if there were any AT&T folks that have had shipment dates changed.
THIS AT&T person is still at Nov 17-24. :-(

The 11/17-24 order I had got canceled for an error, so I think they are at least starting to process them. I was going to cancel it anyway because it was a backup order, so that’s fine, and hopefully the cancellation of my order will move at least one other AT&T customer up in the queue. :)

The one that shipped today is from T-Mobile with my estimated dates 11/2-11/3. I still have a order with Apple processing and the date for that one is 11/17-11/24.

I was in a hotel with a not too fast internet. If I was doing this from home, I would have gotten in much sooner. Some people did order from the web at 2.05 AM CT. I could not get in until 2.15 AM CT. It will be a good compensation, if we are bumped to second batch. We should know by the 3rd November if that is the case.
 
My Amex just notified me I got charged $111.21. I'm not sure if this is for my iup instore pickup on launch day or my wifes 17-24 iup order. I don't think they charge ahead of time for instore pickups so i'm assuming this is for the 17-24. The status still shows 17-24, but it's a promising sign.

Edit: Also that amount seems to be the tax on the order. Not sure if that's what they charge for iup or not pre shipment.

Could be worse, at least it gives us time to stock up on all the accessories and read up on their reviews.

Off topic but what Cases are you looking at? You know, since we all have time on our hands now .... I am conflicted on how to go, I want protection but not sure if ready to give up wireless charging capabilities. I do need something that could withstand a toddler getting her hands on it though.
 
I am also 11/17 to 11/24 :( If i cancel and try my luck at the apple store, will they have to run my credit all over again for ATT next?
 
I ordered 2 phones one at a time that were pre-approved IUP as soon as the app was working for me - probably closer to 3:10 EST. ATT space grey, 256 & 64. Both are Nov 17-24.
As fast as the checkout went, I was surprised with the ship dates. Sadly, one option was pick up in store Nov 3, but I went too fast to catch and didn't want to risk going back.
No change.

If you’re already a customer of AT&T I’ve read they don’t run your credit at all, assuming you’re paying them on time.

My two T-mobile phone orders on Apple's web site are:
W473xxxxxx
W415xxxxx
Still showing 11/17-11/24.
We will know in a week's time, we are going to get a bump or not. At the least I hope I get before thanks giving.
 
I am thinking (and hoping/praying) that if we are going to be bumped up at all, it will happen sometime this week, Monday-Friday. I am an AT&T customer that got screwed because of their faulty system, though Apple is not blameless either. My breakdown is 90% AT&T's fault, 10% Apples for the App not working right, and the different times that it came online for people all over the United States. I ordered through Apples website, which was not my plan at all.

:apple:
