Little frustrating. Called just out of curiosity on its status, the phone rep said it would likely ship by the 21st and then expected delivery by Tuesday or Wednesday. I ordered the phone by 11am Friday the 14th.

I hope that's not accurate :/

See this is where I hate Verizon. They put untrained, idiodic CSRs on the frontlines. If your email says September 21st and your order status says September 21st and it still hasn't changed, you're good. What's the current status?
 
I live in west Chester pa and the iPhone is coming from west Chester which I guess is good. But it said out for delivery, but got interrupted, and now says delivers Friday the 21st. So mine really didn't ship anywhere!!!

Is it possible that it may get delivered to me in New Jersey by mistake? :eek:
 
I wish I could... but I have this little thing called a job that prevents me from doing a lot of things I wish I could do. LOL... I might send my husband out to stand in some lines though if he's off.

put him to work....plus it is like a party when the weather in nice.

Albeit....around hour 4 the party get old.
 
My status just switched to "We received your order and it is in process. Payment not taken yet." and my ship date changed to 10/5/2012 after saying 9/21/12 all week. Anyone else had this happen?

Call internet sales. Something got messed up there.

I know others got this when Verizon had issues charging the credit card provided. I would call them ASAP. Alot of people were having charges declined by their CC companies due to fraud alerts.

Here is the status of your Pre-order:
We received your order and it is in process.

Just weird that a lot are rolling out and I'm getting a bit of run around.
 
That is how mine looked before it shipped.

you see where that one has that kind of blurry line in the "tracking number" area? That's what mine looks like, but all there is is the order number and then a blank box below, but it has looked like that since I ordered. I pre-ordered at a verizon store (i regret this immensely) at about 10:30 am CST, and it has said "deliver by: 9/26" it makes me very very sad :(

I received a FedEx Tracking number from VZW earlier today. :)

Sep 18, 2012 8:52 PM Arrived at FedEx MEMPHIS, TN

Last year when I pre-ordered my iPad 3 I had my local nearby FedEx Distribution Facility HOLD it there and was then able to pick it up there early in the morning, instead of having to possibly anxiously wait all day at home for delivery. I plan to do the same this year with my iPhone 5.
 
Grrrr

I got the same message about 10/5 after the 9/21 all week and even the confirmation email said delivered by 9/21 grrrrrrrrrrrrrr
 
My order on 9/14 shows the order location code "0862001" with an order # & im n GA. The verizon status page says "processing" and has expected ship date of 9/21 but my order confirmation shows a delivery date of 9/21. Adding to the confusing, I got a shipping confirmation (same location code but different order #) email that says the order shipped Sunday night (9/16) but when I try to track it there is no shipping data found. My credit card only shows a pending charge for Verizon with the same order location code of 0862001 as of 9:45pm. Im hoping that it will arrive on or b4 9/21 based on everythg ive read here

Same as me, except I never got a shipping confirmation email. I got the pending charge as of 9/17/12, but still no tracking information, and as of this afternoon, customer service confirmed that it hadn't been shipped yet.
 
My iPhone sure is getting a lot of action for just being in 1 city...

so..your tracking number from fedex says 10/5?
Same thing happened to me and I don't even have a tracking number yet.

Some ****ing jackass on the phone at Verizon just told me that all iPhone 5 orders are going to be shipped on the 28th and that the 21st was the release date.
I swear to God, I'm canceling my order if it's not in my hands before the 22nd.

That's dumb, and not true. Hundreds of us here have tracking numbers for 9/21. Don't call customer service, call internet sales!

Android rage ?


Mine just changed to shipping before the 21st so hopefully I get a tracking number soon
 
Call internet sales. Something got messed up there.

THIS. They know a lot more than the 611 reps. They update the Internet sales teams faster and get them up to speed with solutions first.
Let me put it this way. Sales = profit. Store sales = small profit. Internet sales = majority of profit. Customer service reps usually equal a loss or break even, ie. bill adjustments, credits, ect. So if you had an issue with processing payments but found a solution, what team would you want to inform first and foremost?
Case rested.
Btw Internet sales number is...
866.338.7390
Good luck. If your going to find a solution the Internet sales team reps will have the answer if there is one.
