Okay so let us get this straight, absolutely NO ONE has received a tracking number as of TODAY?
----------
When did you order the device?

No just no tracking number
No even an acknowledgement that the order was actually placed.
As far as we know, those orders are in some sort of limbo and no one here is on any waiting list.
As far as we know, every day, we are all getting pushed farther back behind all the lists building up, everywhere.

According to that one poster, you can call that # directly and force them to cancel it. I don't know why the store said they couldn't cancel for you. Sounds like BS to me.
But as it stands now, this feel like robbery. They took our money, and we are limbo with no info or idea where our order stands. And now they refuse to cancel the order because they haven't processed it yet? What kind of insanity is this.
My order is placed and every time I enter it into the system I can get a message. I have my order number and everything. No tracking number yet
1st mistake going into the sprint store.
They do not want to cancel any orders. And i could have cancelled mine easy but mine came but 2 more for my Son have not.
But dial *2 or 800 2114727 and after you confirm your number you are calling about and it says "what would you like to do" hit 5 then 5 then 2 that department will do everything they can for you.
Anyone who does not have there phone should call them. They can't hang up unless at the end you say they have answered all your question to your satisfaction.
If you do not believe me try it. But they can't make your iPhone appear but they can find your order no matter where you made it and cancel and credit your account that fast.
If mine did not come and my sprint store had 1 there and i really wanted it bad i would have done this and it would have been done fast.
But again i would give it a few days but that is just me
Keep us posted with it..
I don't know what was the purpose for preorder if some didn't receive it yet. I was calm last year when they didn't do preorder for iphone 5s. I ordered on launch day with Apple.com, but didn't receive my phone until Oct. 16th last year.
Alright, so here's an update on my status:
I ordered on 9/13 at 6pm from a NON corporate store. Just like most people I was given the 4-6 week window. I've been in constant touch with the store and up until today they have not received a single 6 Plus. When I called in today they told me that they have started receiving the pre-ordered 6 Plus' and that although mine is not in today it should be within the next few days.
So, for all those who ordered in store, and especially at a corporate store, don't lose hope. There's no way a branch location will receive the phones before a corporate location, and it looks as if today is the day they're beginning to come in.
The wait is almost over!

Corporate store ❗️
The corporate stores here in Ga said that the iPhone 6 plus will be delayed for 4-6 weeks. And none of the stores got any shipment in on release day ❗️

Long time lurker here. I pre-ordered a 6P 16GB SG in a corporate store on 9/12 11AM EST and of course I haven't gotten any kind of reply. So I decided to call today and the sales rep who took my order went ahead to check my status. After about a 25 minute hold she came back and told me that my pre-order is awaiting shipment and that I will be seeing it relatively soon. Don't know how much this information if worth at all actually, as I think they are just saying it to get people off their back. But it definitely is better than when it gets here, we'll call you. I know don't know when could be 4 weeks could be 8 but we'll call you.
I can't get my store to pick up the phone when I call so I just drove over there and was told "awaiting shipment" as well. The sales rep was rather negative about it not having a tracking number but I told him the gold 6/64g I picked up on Friday that was part of the same order never had a tracking number either.
Frankly I don't think these guys know what they're talking about.
They found my order by my phone number. I don't think theres a serial # attached yet since they said they are still awaiting shipment. To me it seems that Sprint ran out of 6P 16Gb SG and is waiting on more supply from Apple.
Or they were just pulling that line out so people stop calling them.
I tried online the morning of the preorders. I didn't trust them sending it to me by the release date, which ended up being good because I was out of town for an unexpected funeral Friday. Ended up getting a 64gb White for the wife at a Sprint store on Saturday. If I was getting one it would have been the 6+
Visited Store
Visited store today.
At least I was able to confirm my phone was worth something - they quoted $234 for a iPhone5 with 32 gigs storage.
That being said, they claimed they had no way of confirming or denying anything regarding an online purchase and or cancelling/changing an order and I would have to call to get details.
The woman in the store claimed that some people might be waiting as long as november for their devices(!)
I got to see the iPhone6 and 6+ in person today. The 6 didn't seem that much larger than the 5 and 5S, the 6+ was a more dramatic size increase but not a deal breaker for me.
Calling Sprint as soon as I'm done with this post.

Okay, f that. Really? So if you ordered ON DAY 1...you might be waiting till November? And on top of that they charged us the full amount? WTF is this. I've never heard of someone charging you the full amount for something they didn't actually have, and then make you wait for 2 months without any kind of updates.
I hope she was just talking about those that ordered the + models much later than the 12th. Because this is beyond unacceptable. Gosh I'm fuming.
