I feel your pain! Also been a 10+ year customer with them. :mad:

to be fair... i dont think my frustration levels would be nearly as high if it wasnt for seeing all those people that ordered after me on this forum getting their phones before me

honestly when I first saw the original dates of 10/13-10/22 i just sighed... said "oh well" and went about my day... then the stress levels increased when i found the threads here...lol

either way... att screwed this up royally
 
ordered iPhone 6+ 128GB Space Gray at 1:30am PT

stuck at "Preparing to ship" and "Oct 13-22" since then.

First year I haven't received got my phone on release day.

Got my case today though!

I'm considering cancelling my order and switching to iPhone 6, but wondering what the chances are I can find an iPhone 6.

Chances are pretty high you can find a six im pretty sure but if you cancel maybe it will move me up even though I ordered before you but we ordered the same phone #

I'd say don't do it as there 5 UPS planes going to Louisville within the hour pretty sure we'll have confirmations by tomorrow night at the earliest.

Shipped (confirmed non-premier)

Didn't even bother checking this morning, and I stayed busy until lunch so it kept my mind off checking. I decided to check at lunch and happily surprised to learn that it had shipped! Got the tracking number and everything. It should arrived tomorrow from Ft Worth, TX.

Having been in retail for 35 years, I am pretty hard to piss off when it comes to "things", I fully understand things get back ordered, orders can get messed up, many things can cause delays and most of them are out of the businesses control. AT&T cannot poop my phone out. I get that.

I don't scream and holler at folks, especially those who have no way to change things, I've endured that.

But I find it intolerable to be getting 2 or 3 or 4 different answers depending on which avenue you inquire. If you're honest upfront, you don't have to backpedal.

It's hard to do, but 611's back ordered status has now made me mad.
 
So many premiere people r getting there shipping info today. If the 877 number goes from back order to processing you r getting yr phone soon. Seems to be only prime members and they all ordered after me. Im so pissed it's not even funny. So many 6+ 64gb sg are flying to homes and mine is no where in sight..I could literally punch something to a pulp. But hey at least the Dodgers are one win away from clinching the WesT!

Ha why are guys so hung up on order numbers. It has nothing to do with this process. If what time you placed yr order doesn't matter then why would order number....
 
Over on the AT&T Community Boards Premier customers are whining that they are getting shuttled to the back if the bus but whenever someone posts their phone has been shipped, guess what, their Premier. SMH

I ordered after 3 and have a 1626 the shipped orders seem to all be the low number ones like 114, usually premiere. Dunno if some people don't think they are premiere and are or some of the normal orders ended up in that pool

Non-Premier customer.
877 gives back order.

Just wanted to share my details. Also talked to a friend today who ordered right after 3:00am on 9/12, she received her package today with her name on it, opened it up and invoice had a random name with another Visa card number on it.

AT&T needs to get its act together.
 
I've pretty much given up on hope at this point. Where everyone who kept saying "This happens every year! You'll see, you'll have your phone on launch day!" and it kept me going through the first week. Now, I 100% believe the dates we have for shipping estimates are legit. I think I've given myself an ulcer constantly looking at these threads, and then refreshing AT&T every time someone received a shipping number.

All I know is, this sucks. I don't feel entitled, but when I (just like all of you) stay up late, and pre order in the first 30 minutes of going live got bumped this far back, it's pretty hard to remain hopeful and loyal to AT&T. I'm sure once our phones are delivered, and we're all happy again, we'll forget all about this until next years release, you know, the iPhone 6S Plus...

I'm ranting. Ugh. I'm tired of checking / waiting. I'm jealous of those who ordered after I did, who are now enjoying their new devices. I regret not camping this year instead. FIRST time I missed launch day since the first iPhone. Thanks AT&T.

I camped too just in hopes of trying to find one, in my whole town of 100,000 they only had 3 ATT iPhone 6+ is in the whole town
 
Ok everybody I got my tracking number just now it will be delivered by ups tomorrow. 6+ 128gb SG
