I was originally 11/17-11/24, then moved to 11/16. Now I, too, have a shipping notice and tracking number that says delivery will be 11/6, Monday.

Well, this morning it showed an arrival scan in South Korea so I am wondering if 11/6 is realistic.

I'm in Tennessee too! My delivery date is Nov 9th, but again I think it will get here a day or two sooner.

I paid in full, nothing has happened.
I bought 3 phones paid in full for all 3. Ordering was a nightmare!! Apple.com was crashing & I even ordered 1 phone by mistake ( bought a smoke grey 256gb but wanted silver) because I wasn’t even sure it went through! Very frustrating, all phones ordered almost at the same time & I still have a November 17-24 delivery date. I have always preordered my iPhones for the last 9 years usually I have to wait weeks or in some cases months to receive them. I thought paying in full would move my order up a little in line but so far, no such luck! I guess I’m just happy to be getting my phone in the same month it launches.
 
Mine has shipped.

Ordered around 3:20AM EDT
Confirmation email for order after 6:00AM EDT
November 17-24

Then got bump to November 16-24

My card was charged around 3pm on Nov 2 and moved to Preparing to Ship around the same time.

Shipped overnight tonight.

Delivery estimated November 8 or 9. It's currently in clearances.

Mine is showing on UPS as delivering Monday. Currently showing that it’s in Korea. Wonder if I might actually get it tomorrow. I am 50 minutes outside of Louisville.

Same here, exactly except for I ordered the 256GB version.
 
I was able to get one in store walk-in. Screw preorder, screw executive relations team. They couldn't get a damn device within their power. All talk zero action.

Unreal the way IUP's are just moving ahead of orders that were placed nearly 15 minutes earlier!

That's wrong.
[doublepost=1509716290][/doublepost]I'm really pissed at the fact that I could probably walk in to AT&T today and get one or more.

Very happy for you but this is what pisses me off. I completed my order at around 3:06 and received a confirmation email at 3:10, but somehow i have no movement. I got charged yesterday at around 3-4AM for the tax but have seen no movement. Still OIP with a delivery date of 11/17-11/24

256 Space Gray ordered on Apple's Website using ATT Next at 3:12 am EST on 10/27 and it's still Nov 17-24, no updates.

Apple better be careful, prioritizing their own IUP customers sounds like what a MONOPOLY would do. They are trying to force customers to sign up for IUP to get better treatment even though they claim to treat every customer equally. I guess at $900 billion, they don't care.
 
Dont get me wrong, i’m happy for you but...
wtf apple, why is my (fully paid) money not good for you?
Either you bump everybody or nobody!
Better to bump somebody than nobody. Phones are available so Apple wants to get them into people’s hands.

I'm in the same boat (256 GB grey ordered at 3:15 AM). Well same plane I guess. I'll be happy if it shows up Monday.

You shouldn’t compare different size and carrier.

For those that want to get one today, try Target. I’m the only one here looking for a phone and they just told me they have some in stock. They don’t preorder so if you’re there and they have some, you’ll get one for sure.
A Target near me supposedly has them in stock and I reserved one for in-store pickup. It wanted me to select from a Mobile Share plan to proceed. Just to process the reservation I did. Do you know if the store can just keep me on my existing plan? It does require a drive and I’d rather not waste the time if they can’t process the transaction. I’m not giving up my grandfathered data plan.

At this point I am feeling like a broken record but here we go again.

We have a very small sample size here. I think more people in this thread used the iPhone upgrade program than any other method of payment, so we are seeing a lot of movement. The sample size is too small to determine whether one group is actually getting preference over another.

I got my reservation placed between 12:05 and 12:10 and am seeing people who paid in full or used carrier programs after me get their phones shipped first. I’m on the iPhone upgrade program. I have had no movement on my order and no charge. I am still 17-24. Apple is not doing this to be evil, there has to be some kind of a method to their madness.

It’s likely a combination of the phone you ordered, when you ordered it, where you live, and how many other people near where you live ordered at a similar time to you. I’m in a smaller city in Oregon and don’t doubt that’s why I haven’t seen movement. They probably couldn’t fill a truck to me so they bumped others ahead of me. Yeah it sucks but what can I do?

I would call your provider and ask them to switch you back to your regular plan
