I had the exact opppsite experience. App refused to work (it’s my usual method). Website worked perfectly.
Got in my order by 3:07. Nov 3rd.
Got my husband’s in 5 minutes later. Nov 13-24. His said Nov 3 until I got to the cart to finalize. Wild.
My son was ordering himself one and had to give up halfway through. App freaked out. Used my laptop. Got Nov 13-24.
This one reminded me of the 6 plus launch.
I ordered over an hour ago, the process seemed complete, but I too have received no confirmation email. The Apple Store app says I have no recent orders for my account, and no recent activity whatsocer, in fact; but when I go to the full website it says it cannot display my orders, and to try back in a few hours.
Pre-ordered through Apple. Store crashed twice during checkout. By the time I got through shipping was Dec 3 -11. Sigh...
Question.. are the non-crontract iPhones that are paid in full (no monthly payments) unlocked?
I normally don’t go through AT&T to upgrade. I normally just buy the phone when the unlocked ones come out in the Apple store. Thx.

Got in at 12:05 ish using the app, pre approved, upgrade program. 256gb ‘black’ shipping in 1-2 weeks, delivery approx 10-17 Nov.
Cannot upgrade with ATT. I select my existing device to upgrade, but the only option on check-out is to pay full price.
And of course, it is outside of business hours, so there is nobody available to help. (And "chat" is down as well.)
Outside of a new queueing system that I guess keeps from overwhelming their servers, ATT is a big fat zero.
Really screws people on the new-every-year plan, because now I'll be paying-off an iPhone 6S+. I will be demanding some kind of compensation or accommodation.
It's not their fault that they don't have much availability. It is that they screwed-up their order system, and trade-in is not possible.
Edit: I managed to upgrade! I had to go wandering off on the ATT site and stumbled into a page where I could choose the upgrade option. I wish I could tell others how to get there - but ... no clue!
They claim delivery by Nov. 3.
Makes sense, since nobody would ever figure out how to do an upgrade order.

Been there. Done that. Chose not to. After forking significantly over 10K to Apple over the years I decided to approach my Apple habit differently. But no doubt people are def going to get a major retail “fix” over this.
Yeah the site was up and running for me at 1:55am CT order placed 2 minutes later says 11/2-11/3 ship date.
Same here. I have the order number (I did screen shot of it just to have proof in case this goes bad). I got a November 14-24 date on my 256 space grey and an order number but nothing there (but I have seen this before where server overload, nothing in your orders and such and you see mail later). Oh update I just got first email that my citizens loan was approved for when the phone ships so I guess that is confirmation LOL
To be fair, the thing is about 45% black, 45% white, 10% silver, and 100% gorgeous.
It does ship till Nov 2nd I believe, so you should be able to call apple and have them make the change before then. Might be a long wait on the phone though.
Same here. Nothing was working for me at all. App, site, ATT app or site. Gave up, came back 30 minutes later and bingo. Ordered a 256 silver through the att app around 4am. Showing a shipping date of Nov 3rd. Let’s see
Just got my citizen loan confirmation email so that is good enough to know my preapproved order went thru. I have seen this before and my order is not seen on apple site til later in day.
Apple is now accepting pre-orders for the new iPhone X through its online storefront and through the Apple Store app.
The iPhone X features the first major redesign Apple has introduced in years with a 5.8-inch OLED display that is nearly bezel-free with no Home button. It also introduces a TrueDepth camera that supports a new Face ID facial recognition system and it supports Qi wireless inductive charging.
Apple's iPhone X is in high demand and all of the rumors we've heard suggest supplies are incredibly limited. Those hoping for launch day delivery should order as soon as possible, or a months-long wait could be in store.
Pre-orders are currently available in the first wave launch countries including Andorra, Australia, Austria, Bahrain, Belgium, Bulgaria, Canada, China, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Greenland, Guernsey, Hong Kong, Hungary, Iceland, India, Ireland, Isle of Man, Italy, Japan, Jersey, Kuwait, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Mexico, Monaco, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Puerto Rico, Qatar, Romania, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Taiwan, United Arab Emirates, the UK, the US and the US Virgin Islands.
All of the major U.S. carriers -- Verizon, AT&T, Sprint, and T-Mobile -- are accepting pre-orders for the new devices. Major online retailers including Best Buy and Target are also accepting pre-orders starting today.
Pricing on the iPhone X begins at $999 for a 64GB model and goes up to $1,149 for a 256GB model. Pricing for iPhone Upgrade Program customers starts at $49.91 per month and goes up to $56.16 per month. iPhone Upgrade pricing includes AppleCare+ support.
Customers who successfully place an order for launch day delivery can expect to begin receiving their devices starting on Friday, November 3, the official launch date for the iPhone X.

Ordered my pre approved grey 256gb at 1202 when the app let me in, delivery 11/3.
Did a new iUP application process for a white 256gb for the wife and the app crashed. Tried again and it said I had a phone reserved for me and I’ll get an email when the carrier servers come back. That was scheduled for a 11/3 in store pickup though for some reason. Fingers crossed but it looks like I got 2 on launch day!!
Got both my tech21 cases in the mail today and spent some more $$ on a couple Apple 29W chargers. Ready for next weekend!

Got an iPhone X 256GB Space Gray VZW preordered right away for Store Pickup at my local Best Buy for 11/3, also got another iPhone X 256GB Silver VZW preordered for Store Pickup at my local Best Buy for 11/3.
As a backup, I got one preordered thru Apple Store App for pickup for 11/3 for a 256GB Space Gray Verizon. So I should for sure have one on release day!
