US Orders: Starting to Show on FedEx

[bgdrew]

If you head to FedEx and use the Track by Reference (https://www.fedex.com/apps/fedextrack/?action=altref&cntry_code=us) your shipment might show there.

For reference number use all three of these numbers: your order number, your order number MINUS the last four digits, and your phone number. Remove the ship date then make sure you plug in your nine-digit zip code (https://tools.usps.com/go/ZipLookupAction!input.action). When you hover over the status you get "In Transit."

As of right now there's no tracking information but it looks like at minimum a label has been created for my order. I'm in the 4-6 week time if that matters.

That's interesting. I got the same results. 4/24-5/8 group.

site glitch, sorry guys.

Not right, just a FedEx glitch. Try typing in the wrong order number by switching some digits around. You'll get the same results.

Mine looks the same as the OP's. Also 4-6 weeks shipping estimate.

Nevermind, I see it's just a quirk of the FedEx site.

When I intentionally spoof my order numbers and phone number I get an error message that the numbers can't be found?

I see what you're saying but this is very unusual for FedEx. Usually, your package doesn't exist in their system until the first time the label is scanned.

Very unusual.

This is nothing more than a site glitch for FedEx. I can confirm this as I entered a bogus Apple Order # but with the same digits and still received results.

 

[killawat]

between this and the faked order page someone posted a while ago, I suspect this thread will blow up soon lol.

 

[omegis83]

site glitch, sorry guys.

Tried using just the order number and zip code with no ship date and it didn't work. Tried using my phone number and 5 digit zip with no ship date and also didn't work. Maybe it is a glitch.

If it's a site glitch I apologize. I found the info on the Apple Watch Reddit (http://www.reddit.com/r/AppleWatch/comments/3338nf/fedex_reference_tracking_page_has_been_updated/). I wasn't able to spoof numbers without an error but I'm sure it's possible it's a glitch.

This is what I get

4-6 week group

 

[killawat]

it's ok. You've given alot of people something to cling onto, even if it doesn't pan out. The endorphins and adrenaline are real lol.

Yes good job nevertheless. Keep it up.

If we all work together we can obsess more efficiently.

 

[Lobwedgephil]

Same glitch happened with iPhone 6, so probably hasn't been fixed yet.

LOL!! This forum is THE most obsessive place in the world. Yet, here I am....

Ok that was hilarious!

Haha, If you guys keep searching long enough, I am sure you will find a shipping number corresponding to the Roswell UFO. I mean you guys do know that was shipped to Area 51 by Fedex right?

Mine says in progress, but there's no more information. It looks like the pics that others have posted.

That is incorrect.
FedEx was not in business until 1971, although at the time they used the name "Federal Express", not FedEx.
The Roswell UFO incident was in 1947.

Very unusual.

i don't think so. i buy a lot stuff from amazon, and if you keep checking the tracking frequently, you can always see some status as 'shipping label created', when the item has not yet left amazon facility.

 

[ToverT]

Mine shows as Delivered!!

That is exactly the response I would expect from a government agent. Men In Black over here guys. 😀

Just a glitch, bummer!

That's UPS. UPS bills the account for a package when the label is created- even if that label never gets used.
