iPhone 5C Order Status Thread!

Just been changed to despatch...Due to arrive tomorrow morning..My Fiancee is suffering from Iphone withdrawal as we sold her 4S yesterday..
so i see there are a lot of blue and yellow phones....just one green? and some white...no pink still
Common guys pick some pink and green
Picked Green here. 32gb. My 5C went from "Preparing for Shipment" and "estimated shipping date 9/18/13 - 9/19/13" to "Back-ordered" lol. Although as people can tell from my previous posts here (I work for AT&T) and backordered doesn't always mean anything. However ...crushing to say the least lol.
Which is weird because I got an automated txt from AT&T Tuesday saying "Your phone order has been sent to our warehouse, we're getting ready to ship it. You will received another text with tracking info when it ships"
it's funny how i stated yesterday that my Blue 16gb 5C was in Harrisburg, Pa and I live in York, Pa. Now I check the status and it went the whole way to Kentucky? I understand that it may have been grouped with others but what a waste of money on UPS's part. I also know I wouldn't have gotten it early but I thought I would share my findings.
Looks like no new iPhone for me tomorrow - order status still hasn't changed, my credit card hasn't even been charged yet and all the rep from T-Mobile could tell me was "some of the iPhone 5c are shipping as early as today, and it will take 2-4 business days after it is shipped." It's 4 PM here, so I doubt mine will be among those shipping today.
Isn't the whole point of a preorder to have the item delivered to you on the day it is released? So much for waking up at 2:30 AM on the 13th!
If I had known this, I would have just ordered directly from Apple. Lesson learned.

I was about to post that I am in exactly the same boat as you, but T-Mobile updated my order online sometime in the last 20 minutes. Says I have estimated delivery of tomorrow. The tracking number hasn't shown up in the UPS system yet, so I won't decalre victory until I see the same info there.
Thank you for posting that - maybe I have a glimmer of hope?
If you don't mind me asking, has your credit card been charged yet?
And I'm in PA. Oh well. This is how it goes for all packages via UPS. It goes through Harrisburg then to Kentucky then to Pittston, then out for delivery in the early afternoon.
They all come from china. The phones have been sitting in UPS and Fedex world hubs in Tennessee for probably a week or so now. They were most likely shipped when they announced them.
Same here...sitting in Ontario, CA since the 17th. Is there a way to interdict and have it delivered to a UPS store? I won't get home until late night tomorrow.
You can contact ups. I have seen people do it. You can ask them to hold it at your nearest ups office
Logged in to see my order status this morning and it has been updated to "backordered." T-Mobile, 32 GB yellow and I ordered as soon as preorders went live on the 13th.
My card has not been charged yet, so I'm going to see if it's too late to cancel the thing and just go to the Apple store next week. I have a trip coming up soon and I don't need the added stress of wondering when my phone is going to be shipped and not being able to get any answers from T-Mobile.

Just got home with my BLUE 5c!
I originally went intending to buy the S but they only had the grey available and I really, really didn't want the space grey.
Anyway, as soon as they showed me the c and I held it I had to have it!
I upgrade in April as I'm on a 12 month contract with Vodafone so if I really want to I can get the S then.
For now, I'm LOVING my 5c! Such a beautiful phone!
