It sounds more and more like reps kind of color in between the lines with what they say about shipments and timing. I can't imagine they actually know much with how conflicting they can be.
Got a tip for us?

Geez FedEx tracking is literally horrible. It's supposed to be here today, but they do not update at all.
Doesn't say what time it left until like 10 hours after it happened,

I guess I've only used fedex twice, and both times were a bad experience. I've never had a problem with USPS, but then again I've never tracked with them. I've always use UPS and I feel their tracking is the best. Pretty much updates when the driver goes pee or gets fast food..
Looks like many of the orders placed on 9/25 and 9/26 have been seeing movement, which is great. I'm hoping the string of 9/27 orders follow that same day or two behind trend, which would mean it could have potential to ship today. I grow nervous once again, though, reading about others having continued woes with their payment information. The same thing happened to me when I placed my original order, hence having to do so again on the 27th. I don't like having to watch things like a hawk in order to ease my nerves soooo...crossing everything for nothing but smooth sailing.
I just got an email from FedEx that they picked up my package and it is due on Friday.
I am signed up with FedEx Delivery Manager that e-mails me anytime a package is shipped to my address with my or my wife's name. It also shows up in my phone app.
It also shows as shipped on the Verizon website.
No Verizon email as of yet. Just the FedEx Delivery Manager e-mail.
Good luck all.
Ordered SG 6+ 64GB on Sept 25. Est. ship date 10/12 changed to 1/19 on Monday. Shipped on 10/14!

Interesting.
I've got a pending charge on my account for the device ordered on the 25th at 7am central time for the 64gb space grey 6s plus but Verizon still says they've reason information and its in process, same thing it's been saying since day one. Still no change in status or email information.

Got the same thing this morning. Verizon shows shipped and FedEx tracking number is already working. I should also receive my phone on Friday.
Got a bit of a scare. About 30 minutes ago got my email from Verizon. However, it showed only one phone having been shipped. :-(
Now I just received a second email with a different tracking number from FedEx Delivery Manager.
The two phones are in two packages. Wife's 6s 64GB and my 6s+ 64GB. Gave wife the choice but she wants the smaller phone for her pocket. As a teacher, she is required to have a phone with her at all times in case of active shooter, etc.
Got luck all.
I ordered my 6+ RG 128gb on 10/9. Expected delivery by 11/2. I'm moving to Verizon from ATT. Hoping to get it sooner than expected date. Also I just want to let anyone who is considering ATT know hat their customer service has gone downhill. Wait times just to talk to someone is an hour +!! Chat is quicker, but generally gets you no where.
I've been following this thread from the beginning as I awaited my 6S Plus. I ordered on 9/24 and had a delivery date of 10/14. My order was stuck on pending forever until today. I now have this:
Product(s):
4G 4FF PRE-INSTALLED SIM
Apple® iPhone® 6s Plus 64GB in Space Gray
Status:
Your order is currently being processed. Please check back later.
I'm pretty excited. I doubt I will get the phone today though as originally estimated.

Mine is still at this point and has been since the push to 10/19 ship by. Verizon says this message is a result of that change. Link in the original email still says 10/12 with nothing else Silly Verizon.
Status: Your order is pending.
Expected Ship Date:
We are working hard to complete your order. Unfortunately, it will not be shipped as originally scheduled. You will receive a shipment confirmation email when your order ships, which will include a new delivery date.
Ordered on 9/26 so i'm jealous of those seeing movement for 9/25 and 9/26 orders!

I feel like this is the Season Finale of "As the Preorder ships: Sponsored by Verizon Wireless" and everyone is finally getting phones.
Was on my 6S+ all last night setting things up, and forgot how much I like some of the integration / infrastructure of IOS.

I think it will ship this week. Probably Thursday like mine did last week.
I finally got a shipping notice from Fedex (not Verizon). But in the time it's taken to get the order shipped, I've:
-Been pissed off by Verizon on the phone 2 times
-Been lied to by Verizon on the phone at least twice
-Experienced terrible communication from Verizon consistently
-Had my order jacked up by Verizon's terrible order processing systems
-Gotten interested in the sim-free version with band 30 LTE support
Hmm..

Say, anyone else in a scenario where they are upgrading their phone on a 2 year contract renewal? I'm one of the few (or so it seems) at this point who is on a legacy plan and have retained that option for the time being. Just wondering if that might somehow compound my/similar situations. I wonder if those on the Device Payment option had a smoother transaction with there not being as much, if any, to charge or if it even makes a difference at all.
Fedex Overnight and 2nd day are great while fake fedex the ground and home delivery are another story all together
