I am still waiting to be charged too. So nervous since I had a lot of trouble putting my order through. It took me over half an hour!

Same. I have two orders for the same line (bc Apple gave me 2-3 weeks due to app issues) which is why I'm extra obsessive this time. Until the phone goes out I won't feel relief I'm actually getting it!
 
My credit card flagged it as a fraudulent charge too and declined payment. I’m on the phone with Verizon now hoping it gets straightened out and not screwed up further. The aggravating thing is I called my card company yesterday and told them about the charge.

What time did everyone else preorder when they launched? Will give us a good idea how they are prioritizing deliveries.

Got my confirmation emails for

First phone
11:57pm iPhone X 64GB Silver

Second phone

I got my confirmation email at 3:40am eastern time (12:40am Pacific) for an iphone X 64gb in Silver. I haven't been charged yet. :(

My Amex Green has the entire $192.86 pending now. And i got charged for the $80.74 that i owed to put me at 12 months of payments. So....I expect my phone to be here Friday. Guys be patient. If you're seeing charges or pending charges of $xxx.xx instead of $1.00, you're getting your phone.

Apple does a lot of just in time shipping and it is very organized and streamlined. They know what they are doing logistically.
 
Let me know what happens to you two. Going through the same thing with AMEX. I hope they just try to charge again soon.
I just called and they redirected me to their Internet Orders department and just resent the charge, and are good to go. Still on for 11/3, made sure to say 100x that I just want to recharge NOT cancel and reorder.
 
For those wondering about pending vs processing... My order status has only ever said processing but my debit card was charged the $32 upgrade fee an hour ago. I don't think there's a difference between the two statuses.

(Silver 64G, ordered around 12:10am)
 
Nope just the regular tax fee whatever, was like $120 something.
If you don't make a lot of online purchases with the card that may be why it was flagged. I just contacted American Excess and told them the charge was real, even though it wasn't flagged. The gent made a note on my account and appreciated me letting them know. I normally don't do that, but don't want to risk any unnecessary delay in shipping.

General comment to the forum: In the future, it is best to make purchases with a credit card, instead of a debit card, especially online. Never give a company direct access to your checking account.
 
Got charged for my second order, which went thru at 3:01am EST for a 64GB Silver X, but not for my order that went thru at 2:59EST for my 256GB Silver X.
 
I too was declined and requested to authorize my payment via Chase. I did authorize then got an email from Verizon maybe half an hour later asking to update my payment. I paid with the same card and now have a pending charge.
 
Just got the $32.70 charge about an hour ago. Glad to see it.

Edit: Although the "deliver by 11/3" date is no longer even shown. Just says "Processing."

I did everything you stated here before I ordered. Still ran across the problem. Trust me, I know.
 
I didn't look at the clock, but I was done with my order (256gb / Space Gray on a new Device Payment Plan) a couple of minutes after the site went live for me (at exactly 3:01 am EST, their standby page had a timer on it or something to load reload right at 3:01 am EST). My order confirmation came at 3:05 am for delivery on 11/3, and it is listed as "Processing" but I have yet to see a charge on my card. I use a new bank now, Huntington, and they have not as of today ever denied a payment, regardless of size. This should only be about $120 bucks anyways (tax and upgrade fee.)

Sure hope it comes on Friday, I already ordered the cases :p
 
No iPhone X will be delivered before Fri.
People say this every year. Yet, every year a few lucky people get a mistaken delivery from UPS/FedEx Thursday. There's always hope in human error!

Ordered 256GB space grey at 2:53 ET with 11/3 Delivery. Confirmation email received at 2:56. Card charged for tax and fee a little while ago with everyone else that posted.

I thought mine has said "processing" for the longest time, since I ordered it. Did I just misread it and it said "pending?"

This just happened to me as well. Confirmed payment with the same card and now I have a pending charge for the full amount on my Chase card. :)
