Verizon iPhone 5 Preorder Status Thread

duke02 said:
Yesterday AM, I checked the status and it said 10/5 as the ship date. I lost my s***. I realize I shouldn't have, its just a phone, but I've been looking forward to it for a while. So I called VZW customer service who said that they would escalate it and get it sent out on time.

Starting around noon, the ship date just disappeared from the website, so I'm hoping it was taken care of, but calling VZW customer service just gets me transferred to internet sales now who give me a canned answer of "tracking # is not available yet, one will be emailed to you when it is." but they also say the order is showing as complete.

I wouldn't worry about it. I'm in the same situation as you're in.

From other people who've already gotten their tracking numbers who've gone through the same situation as us, this seems like the progression of events. 9/21 -> 10/5 when fraud flagged -> blank date when sent to warehouse. They received their tracking numbers anywhere from immediately to 20 hours later after their orders were charged.
 
My shipment started at West Chester, PA, then Coatesville, then Elizabeth, NJ and now it's at Newark, NJ, hurry up and go to Chicago already lol.

Btw, I ordered two phones and the weight on fedex's site states 2.0lbs./.9kg. Does that mean the package has both phones?? How many pounds does it say for the one's that ordered one phone??

not sure, but I think they would come individually. Just a guess.
 
Where are the phones?

Where are the phones that were going to be delivered TODAY? I seem to be right on this one: Apple must have insisted that the 5 be delivered on the 21st and not before.

I'm sure a "few" will get today but that will be a huge exception to the "rule".

With that said, mine shows tomorrow delivery but will gladly eat my words if I get it today ! Ha !:D

I only ordered one phone and that is the same weight as it says for mine.

Now one of my orders shows pending from awaiting inventory and the other is showing complete, no emails with tracking numbers yet.
 
D772001 - Virginia

:D:D:D Just got three emails, for three phones. I got FED-EX Tracking Numbers!!

Looks like the Iphone gods are shining down on western Virginia!

:D:D:D

Good Luck to the rest of you!!!
 
I'm sure this has been asked, so I apologize in advance.

But once your ship date disappears, order is sent for processing, and charge shows up pending on the CC. How far off is a tracking number?

I am not sure when it went to processing, but the transaction date on the CC puts it at sometime last night (9/19, no time given). So does that mean I will most likely get my phone tomorrow?

Should we start worrying if we dont have a tracking number yet?

I ordered on 9/14 at about 8:30 am cst. My cc got charged yesterday evening sometime then soon after my status changed to sent for processing. I still have not received a tracking number. It may have something to do with me only being about 5 hrs away from the Memphis hub though.

Either way I'm expecting an email with a tracking number any minute and am starting to get a little worried, even though Verizon hasn't let me down before.

yes verizon wont charge your card until they ship the phone. you'll get a tracking # today. mine took 5-6 hours. dont worry its shipped, just takes a while in the system to update.

I don't know what everyone's reference numbers looked like on FedEx but for those who want to see if there shipment made it to the carrier and you don't have a tracking number, my reference number looked like this:

D771001_00016XXXX01
Location_000order01 (adjust the first 3 0s as needed so that's its 9 digits: i.e. 00XXXXXXX01...)

Close to what was suggested in the forum earlier on. But they seem to have added a 01 at the end just to trip us up.


Hope this help!

my reference is the same way, if you haven't received your tracking number try looking it up this way

I have two coming and they have been shipped separately. Verizon's shipping messages were odd. I got two emails at the same time. The first said, "Verizon Wireless Shipment Notification" and the second said, "Verizon Wireless Shipment Status." As it turns out, the first email was the tracking number for one phone while the second was the tracking number for the other phone.
 
If anyone is still waiting for their Verizon iPhone 5 to ship, don't sweat it. I ordered mine at literally 3:01AM ET, a minute after they went on sale. Mine didn't ship out until about five minutes ago, and it's coming overnight. The entire time, though my email said "deliver by 9/21" the actual tracking page said "Shipping by 9/21."

So if you ordered within the first eight hours or so, don't panic if your iPhone 5 hasn't shipped yet, or if the Verizon Wireless preorder page says it won't ship until tomorrow. They're going to ship it today, and they're going to overnight it.

So the pending charge means it's shipped just not fully through the process?
