I have close to the same thing. I'm not really sure what it all means...but my delivery date is staying firm at October 1.

they removed my delivery date...I have no idea what that update means at least yours scanned in another city so you know it's moving and still somewhere.

been having the same issue here. Oct 1st expected delivery date. Very annoyed that apple wouldnt even let me cancel my order so i can just walk into the store and buy one. Very disappointed with this experience especially since a co-worker ordered his same day but at 7pm and already has his. :mad:
 
Ditto... Hey, if we have enough can we do a 'class action' something? :)

well I have about 6 different reference numbers wrapped around my package so I'm hoping that means I have at least 5 other people I can team up with :eek:
 
Hopefully mine comes soon. It does not have a estimated delivery date, and these items just appeared this afternoon on my tracking "Package has shipped and the delivery is being scheduled; check for updates later. / Forwarded to the facility in the destination city.
09/25/2012 4:43 P.M. Package has shipped and the delivery is being scheduled; check for updates later.
"
Hopefully it doesnt mean a delay or anything bad. Mine right now, the latest scan is..

Louisville, KY, United States 09/26/2012 2:02 A.M. Arrival Scan

Ordered from Verizon
16GB
BLACK AND SLATE
IPhone 5
9/16 at 11 am

Any help would be great.

I had order the below:
32GB
BLACK AND SLATE
IPhone 5
9/14 at 4.45 am EST

Apparently UPS lost my package and Apple sent me the below email:
"Dear Abhishek,

We’re pleased to inform you that we’ve completed our investigation, and will ship a replacement for the iPhone 5 as requested. We apologize for the inconvenience.

Your shipment will be expedited under your current order number. Once the package ships, you’ll receive a Shipment Notification email with the carrier information and tracking number.

To view the most up-to-date status of your order, please visit online Order Status at apple.com/orderstatus.

Thank you for shopping with Apple. We appreciate your business.

Sincerely,

Apple Online Store Team"

And now after I check the status of my order it says "Processing" again with 3-4 weeks and Oct End delivery.

I am pissed with Appler and UPS.

Whatever you do do not Hold the package.
 
Those flights could be delayed due to a number of reasons. You may want to check what's sitting offshore... :(

If you are really OCD like I am, go to Flightaware and track the UPS flights coming out of HK

Well flightstats has both flights as departed within 15 mins of their scheduled time, so I guess flightaware doesn't have them until they get closer.

The bad news is tracking didn't update for me with a departure scan, so I guess I get *another* layover counted in *days* before my phone actually leaves asia.

Origin scan on this phone was 3 days ago.

That really sucks but I almost wish this would happen to me so I could just cancel my order, its a joke at this point. I've never seen such large corporations such as Apple and UPS create such a Cluster F.
 
Received my new iphone yesterday, 16GB black and slate. It is flawless, no issues with it. No yellow screen, everything works as expected. :)

I agree, I almost cancelled my order but later found out that the stores are now out of stock too. So I had to undo my cancel.

I feel like I need to file a complain somewhere, can someone help?
 
Anyone else have their phone arive in Louisville this morning around 2:02am? Mine seems stuck there for now... No delivery date from UPS. I am aware of the bad weather, and the delay at custums that sometimes happens... Just wondering if anyone else is in the same boat as me...

Oh man, I'm so sorry to hear that. Did you know that your package was lost and then contacted Apple/UPS? Or were you in weirdo tracking limbo like a lot of us?

If you could please post your tracking info, prior to receiving word that a new one was on the way, that would be really helpful. Good luck in getting your iPhone and godspeed my friend.

I sure hope this doesn't happen to me :(

I get the feeling that most of us left monitoring this thread are either stuck in Asia still, or haven't shipped yet...

I'm part of the group stuck here:
Incheon, Korea, Republic of 09/25/2012 8:30 P.M.

I just completed a live chat with UPS who told me the phone is in fact still sitting in Korea. I had gotten a My Choice e-mail yesterday with a delivery date of today and the website delivery still shows tomorrow. The UPS chat guy said the e-mail was not correct and to "keep checking the website", wow, thanks Captain Obvious.

Yeah -

My group was hot yesterday with updates... Which makes me think my phone missed a departure scan, or is sadly sitting in KY waiting out a storm While everyone else in my group gets their phone today!... Oh, well... It will get here sooner or later!
 
So it's coming directly from HK to my town?

The China order processed is when they just billed my bank. So it wasn't shipping because I hadn't been billed yet?

I am working in office right now, but I'll be definitely not going to let this go today, maybe in the evening.

I am already talking to the Apple Supervisor.

I'm in the same shipment. UPS sent me an email yesterday saying delivery today, but since it hasn't imported yet I don't think I'll see it today. Web tracking still says tomorrow.

Ughh... So we didn't make it onto the UPS61 flight to Anchorage that left a few hours ago? Some of the folks yesterday said that they didn't get a tracking update until the plane landed in Anchorage... Was still holding out hope that that was the case again today and mine was on it even though UPS tracking is saying it's stuck in Korea.
 
So annoying..
