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.

I did renwal under our business plan and it is shipping today order 9/25
 
Question...Is there a way to have Fed Ex leave package without signature? I registered on their webpage and do not see an option as of yet. Thanks
 
Husband's fedex tracking updated. His phone will deliver Friday. Finally, this entire process is almost over.

2 6s+ ordered 9/25 Orig deliv date 10/12

gold 64gb - shipped early on 10/8
sg 64gb - date moved from 10/12 to 10/19, but shipped 10/13

Now I can actually enjoy my phone :)


Whew glad you will move from 50% to 100% in 48 hours

Seems like Space Grey is not moving again
 
My expected delivery date was 10/26. Charged last night. Shipped today. Will deliver tomorrow.
 
My sg+ 128 ordered on 9/28 shipped today with estimated delivery on Friday 10/16, original ship date was 10/12. It's coming sooner than I thought, especially since I got that email that said the new ship date would be 10/19!

Leave a note on the door with tracking number and your signature and they should leave it. If your shipping info says "indirect signature required" then that means you can leave a note as stated above but if it says "direct signature required" then I believe someone has to be present to sign for it. I did this last year and they left it without a problem. If you want them to put it in a particular place, I would note that on the note you are leaving for them. They can pretty much put it anywhere but a mailbox. Hope this helps.

Thanks.... I live in BFE so not to worried about theft. I will check the shipping details.. thanks
 
My card was charged last night 9/26 order 64g SG. Hopefully that means shipping today! I wish that would mean getting it for the weekend but more than likely I'll have to wait for Monday.
 
Checked my local Apple Store moments ago. They had my model of choice in stock so I reserved it and a time slot later this afternoon. If all goes as it should, I will cancel my online pre order (still no updates on that front) and hopefully that will be all!
 
There might be some good news for all of you in Nevergonnagetmyphone land (Sorry folks this Island is Neverland's step Island - We get Hank Pan and Stankerbell). Yesterday morning I checked my status as I do every morning and my date had gone from 10/26 to 10/28. A little disappointed but at this point what's 2 more days. But guess what... later that day I got my shipment notification. So I'm pretty sure Verizon has no idea when they're getting stock and when it will ship. Be patient all... the end is near.

Order Date 9/13
64GB RG 6S+
128 GB SG 6s+

Still waiting on my 64gb 6s+ space gray. Original expected ship date was 10/12. At this point I'm just hoping that it does ship out on Its new expected ship date of 10/19 and it doesn't get pushed back again.

If it doesn't ship on Monday I might cancel the order and try the 128gb model since more people seem to be getting that one sooner.
 
I was SO close to doing the IUP and canceling my order. I shall have patience and not spend more money at the cost of getting a phone today. I had the 6s Plus I want in my hand and it felt so good! Lol #patience #preorderdiaries #pointlesshashtags

If you're wanting to go with the monthly, but not deal with the IUP. Check out things like Target, Best Buy, etc.

I was waiting, too, without a charge on Tuesday. So I looked up various places, and saw Target had "low stock" reported at the one by my in laws. So I called them up, and they held the phone for me. I walked in, ported in from T-Mobile, walked out with 290 bucks in Target cards (awesome, cause my wife loves that place) and another 100 coming into Verizon for porting in from another carrier. Signed up for the Verizon monthly, and was in/out quickly.

If you go to http://preorder.verizonwireless.com (copy/paste, don't click... people report the site redirects you on a click) you can put in your pre-order number, and last name, and cancel your existing order online.

Whole process was super easy, and I walked out with my 64GB SILVER Plus.

In what way is the IUP more money?
