My location # is W781001. Yeah I don't see anything about a signature either, but in the past I've always had to sign for Verizon deliveries - I wouldn't expect this one to be any different.
Got a tip for us?

Does anyone know if these Fedex tracking numbers are actually going to update with a destination?
Just want to make sure my phone goes to the shipping address I input and not the billing address.
Haven't gotten any email confirmation, about the order nor with shipping info. Literally been tracking everything myself with help from this thread.

Anyone getting delivery early?
Got my tracking number and the phone is moving, just hope they send out early.

Anybody else have location code N211401? I ordered 2.15am Chicago time, got confirmation email at 2.47am, and just got pending charge late last night on my credit card. I have not seen any update since then.... Ordered 32gb black
I have N211401 also. Placed order about the same time as you with confirmation at 2:20(central time as well.) Card charged last night at about 6:00 and received tracking this morning.
16gb black
No emails, none at all. Not one confirming the order (I called Friday afternoon just to make sure and CSR said I'd get an email late, but that never came) and I didn't get an email with shipping info at all (I checked the status on VZW and that's how I got my tracking number).
Checked the spam filter and everything, not a single email. But I've been billed and I have a Fedex tracking number.
Just wanted to see if the destination would update so I don't have to bother CSR or Fedex.
My location # is N215401. Does that help? I don't know what all these different numbers people are talking about are for.
For folks who have ordered more than one phone - are you getting multiple shipment notices w/ multiple tracking numbers? Looks like we've to be home all day Friday.
I completely agree with you and I'm being patient. None of us will die without a new iPhone 5 (I PROMISE!).
What puzzles me is trying to figure out how Verizon can keep track of what must be >100k orders without decent systems that are consistently up to date. Given the way updates come from them I'm picturing a giant warehouse with a stack of packing lists on one side, a pile of iPhones on the other side, and a huge group of folks taking a packing list, taking a phone, dropping it in a box and then telling some guy sitting there with a green screen terminal that "Order 39383837 is shipped!" He types in the appropriate code and then the AS400 batch process runs once every 24-48 hours to update the web site.
Obviously Verizon MUST get these orders out or face an enourmous public relations nightmare. You can also look at this another way - it appears Verizon's been spending their resources on rolling out a lot of LTE instead of beefing up their once-a-year logistics issues. That's OK with me!

Since they are shipping from China this actually might make sense.

boo for me. My order number is 50xxx and I have no info yet. Just "your order has been sent for processing". I think the order location W779201 is sleeping in today.
I'm in location W779201, 50xxx and I just received my tracking number about 30 minutes (9:45am PST) ago.
Just called them, they said everything is good just basically be patient for the sent confirmation and tracking and I'm pretty much promised for the 21st. I'm done calling and checking, I'm good. Just the waiting game.
I didn't get any emails, not one confirming the order (I ordered 3:01 EST) and not one with tracking/shipping info (I got that myself from my order status).
Was hoping the destination on Fedex would update so I don't have to bother with CSR or Fedex.
