Curious for California buyers only. Anyone have any updates? I think the last time I did a pre-order with Verizon, California was the last group. Just wondering...

I ordered 256GB Gold Xs Max
California here and my Max 256 SG shipped yesterday.
 
Looks like no 256g/512g silver phones shipped out yet, but I'm not worried. Verizon always does a good job. If your email says 9/21, you will get it on 9/21.

My 256 Silver Max shipped Monday. Still waiting on my other 64 Silver Max to ship. Both ordered at the same time! Wtf
 
Though my phone has not been shipped yet, the Apple leather case is arriving tomorrow. At least I have something new to unbox;). Long week...
 
Just checked my email and had an email sent at 4am with tracking number. It’s currently in Memphis and is scheduled for Friday;) I’m located in Nothern California

Ordered iPhone X S Max 64 Grey at 1am thru chat support on Friday.
 
I just got a text from Verizon:

Your order #REDACTED was received on 09/18/2018. You'll received a text message with tracking information when your order ships.

Ummm, WTF?! I have ordered multiple phones from Verizon and never gotten a message like this. Also, why was the order JUST received today when I placed it on preorder day?

Apple pay payment just showed up. It shows as declined. What do I need to do in order to get this corrected so that I will still receive my phone on Friday?

The whole preorder for me has been total cluster F***. I have a feeling I am not alone.

Same here, my Apple Pay transaction showed up in Wallet transaction history as declined. I'll be awaiting the email from Verizon allowing me to update my billing info. This is really frustrating. Why even offer Apple Pay as an option if everybody is just going to get declined? I even notified my credit card company of the upcoming charge, and even told them it was an Apple Pay transaction. To me, this puts into question the whole utility of Apple Pay. Why would I ever want to use it instead of a credit card if I'm going to risk this happening?
 
Just got charged. Order placed 12:30 pm cst(had to cancel/ reorder out of Apple Pay issue fear) on the 14th. No change on vzw account other than a text that the order was received/ payment was received.
