Well, not getting it today. :mad: Apparently the "scheduled delivery" date is the scheduled date for when the package gets to KY, as told by a supervisor at UPS. Makes no sense...Whatever, hopefully I get it tomorrow...

Well, same experience....

I had a scheduled Delivery Date of Sept 25, all day it stated that it was on schedule. Never showed!

I called and spoke with a lady at UPS who told me that its Apple's issue because they shipped in Bulk. So it was being sorted and would arrive today.

I'm fairly sure that UPS was aware that it was on a skid when they picked it up in China. At what point does UPS take accountability for their error?

So why wait at home for the package when it may or may not arrive?

MESSAGE TO APPLE: PLEASE DO NOT USE UPS AS A CARRIER FOR MY PURCHASES.

UPS Sucks!

I just ordered the Plus.
Funny thing though, according to Apple it ships within 5-7 business days, however the delivery date is estimated at Oct 9 - 13... That's not 7 days at all, but I can't complain. At least it's not 3-4 weeks.

The Plus models all show 3-4 weeks in the US. You must be special over there.
 
Ordered a Verizon 6+ Space Gray 16gb Sept. 16 through Apple online, with Oct.15-22 Delivery, status now preparing to ship. Not a bad wait time, definitely quicker than the 5S I ordered last year.

I think we are ordering from a reserved pool of phones, specifically produced for the 'second wave' countries. In other words, we are just ordering from a big supply until it's empty, after which our dates will slip to 3-4 weeks also.

What were the shipping estimates for the Plus when it just came out in the States? Was it always 3-4 weeks or did it slip into that after it was sold out?
 
My 128g space gray plus, ordered at 2 min after the Apple store opened on pre-order night, just got a confirmed of delivery date of Oct 6.

I did go to the local Apple store to hold one, it's big! I will take my 14 days to decide if it's too big to live with every day. The 6 feels very nice, but I have some applications that would be better with the plus, tough choices.
 
So I went to the Apple store on Wednesday and they gave me a replacement 6+. I must say that the Air bubble was really small, but it bothered me and I paid almost $900 with the tax for a new phone, I expect nothing less than perfection. They even gave me a free silicon case because I had to wait 3 hours and the guy thought my $10 ebay case was "ugly" :p
 
I ordered a Space Gray 64GB plus from Apple for AT&T at about 7:30am central time sept 12. Mine now went to Preparing to ship. Edit: Also charged my Credit Card

wow...wait what? lol Thats awesome!! You even ordered the same phone after I did. Post that in the verizon thread, if you don't mind please.
 
My boss just got her Verizon space gray 6. No heat or wifi issues. I am happy for her. It's good her first iPhone is smooth sailing all the way.

if you can buy at an Apple store, go with Personal pick up. I was in and out in no more than 20 minutes for a 6 and under 10 for the 5s. *Pretty darn stellar.
 
I were up early and got first in line for my local NetCom shop here in Norway, I managed to get the only 64GB Space Grey iPhone 6 they had in this release, it have no issues, screen is perfect, and everything is good.
 
Well this sucks, I was planning on taking advantage of the AT&T trade in thing for the 200 credit from my iphone 4, but I wont have the 330 I need before the 30th like I thought I would so I guess that one's out. That was my best shot and now I'm going to miss it by about a week.

Any other deals like that I should know about?

Just received my tracking number for my gold 6 plus!!! :D Woo hoo. It'll arrive October 3. Of course it would be too easy to have it arrive the day before--on my day off :mad:

Don't judge me, but I'm thinking of putting my Friday shift up for a swap...
(Work 9:15-5:45)
Will I need to go to AT&T to have my sim swapped out of my iPhone 5?
Click to expand...


LMAO....I would put my day up for swap. With Verizon the cards do not have to. Just
back up everything in iTunes.

I placed my order on the second day after
the 6+ came out and my shopping estimated
time is 3 weeks out. I did not pre-order bc I
wanted to see and use both in person. I was
not sure if I wanted to upgrade from my 5c.
I fell in love with the plus.
 
Well, I got a 6 on Tuesday....but I am still torn between the 6 and the 6 plus, so while I was ordering a 6 plus for my husband I just added on another 6 plus for me on our dummy line to see if I like it. Here is our order

iPhone 6 Plus, AT&T, 64GB, gold ordered 9/26, delivers 10/27-11/3
iphone 6 Plus, AT&T, 16GB, SG ordered 9/26, delivers 10/27-11/3

I wonder which will get here first haha
 
I ordered my iPhone 6, TM 64 GB midday Monday. Wednesday at 6am I got a text alert saying it has shipped and will deliver October 3.

On the tracking information nothing has changed, last update was:
"China 09/26/2014 12:19 A.M. Order Processed: Ready for UPS."

It says scheduled for early delivery on the 1st but I have a feeling that if it gets in the US on that day it will be a miracle.
 
It seems my just received ip6+ has strange blinking pixels in the camerasensor when you go in a complete dark room and switch to 120fps mode. Maybe this could be pixelgate because most ppl will not even realized it yet, the pixels will show up in the recorded video
 
Well got the tracking info on my Verizon 6+ for an Oct. 6th delivery, expecting it sometime late next week. Between ordering and having it shipped took about 10 days, not a bad wait time at all.
