It's my first pre order so I'm soaking it up!
I'll definitely be doing this next year

I don't blame you at all! :) Does your tracking info say anything about it being a destination arrival, or just an arrival? I am pretty sure there's only one hub in my entire town, but the thing keeping me from celebrating is that it doesn't say "destination" anywhere on my tracking yet.
 
My tracking still says it departed Memphis yesterday afternoon... but the Lightning Dock I ordered just went on the truck 10 minutes ago so I'm guessing FedEx tracking may not be updating on all orders, especially since there are so many of them.

Anyone else experiencing this with FedEx? Both of my items are being sent to work and I'll be there all day so its' really no big deal. I'm sure it will show up right on time like every Apple Pre-Order I've done :cool:.

Yep same thing for me ....mines was scanned in Atlanta, but nothing else since 12:02AM.

Mines at destination arrival right now but it is the only hub in my area. You may be good to go though. Not positive
 
Mine is still at destination sort facility about 45 min away. Hopefully it's on the truck for delivery here soon. :)
 
I wish mine had gone through FedEx, because I have one just down the street from my house (literally it's less than a block away), and last time I got a package from them it couldn't have been any later than 8:30 AM... but since I just bought the house and have zero idea what time UPS comes I decided to go for the hub. MiPhone (what I name all of my iPhones) is about 45 minutes north and arrived there about 2 hours ago. My guess is I will be able to pick up my phone when they open at 9.

Mine left SLC an hour ago. It'll be dropped off to the West Valley Customer Center soon. Picking up at 10AM. So excited!

They scanned in my iPhone in the proper city with an "arrival scan" at 7:18 am. Waiting for the status to update so I can go nab it. Any experienced UPS pick-uppers know what the status changes to when I'll be able to go to the hub and get it?

Typically as long as you've already arranged for it to be held at a hub, you can pick it up any time after 9am

Mine is through FedEx and they said they wouldn't allow me to pick it up. Has to be delivered. Frustrating because UPS always lets me
 
I have to tell you folks that I am envious that today is not "Christmas" for me too. I ordered mine on September 14. My expected delivery date has now been pushed up to October 5. It is fun to read your posts. It is like waiting on Santa to visit. Keep up the updates. You are making me smile because I know how much fun this is. For those that criticize, get over it. Let us be joyful!

Mine shows at the local sort facility. I called Fedex to get it held there for pickup and they said the shipper has instructions that this package had to have one delivery attempt first. So Fedex usually delivers about 11AM my time so 5 hour wait now.
 
I'll be interested to see how this plays out. I also bought the AppleCare from Verizon for $99. I think they just misprinted it. There is no such thing as just AppleCare for the iPhone now. If necessary, I'll just cancel it when I get my phone as I want the protection plan and not just an extended warranty
I got an e-mail from apple about my apple care plus for my new iPhone- i called apple and now that I have the iPhone ID#, they were able to verify that I have the proper insurance protection- and now it's in writing

I got the AppleCare+ Certificate PDF from them auto-enrolling it.

AppleCare+ for iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus extends service and support coverage to 2 years from the purchase date of the device, and includes coverage for up to 2 incidents of accidental damage from handling, each subject to a $99 Service Fee plus applicable sales tax.

I can't check on Apple site yet as phone is not activated. But I have the IMEI already as that was on the certificate.
 
My shipping date dropped from 10/14 to 10/12 for my 6S Plus 128 Rose Gold preordered from Verizon online after 10 PM EDT 9/12.
