I agree with your reasoning, BUT my email confirmation says "Delivers By: 09/21/2012" while the above website says "Expected Ship Date: 09/21/2012".

Pretty big difference between the two, if you ask me.


its been stated so many times on this thread and the OP says it..... read people, last year on the 4s it said the same thing and everyone received it on launch day.

itll all be good.
 
Got my conformation! A bit concerned though because if I "check the order status" it does not show the order as being valid. Anyone else having this issue?

Same thing on my end. My Preorder Confirmation # as well as my Order Number (with my last name) don't work.
 
Order

Ordered about same time. No email and closed confirmation page without writing # down because was in a rush before work and now can't check. My CC does have a Verizon pending charge however

I did the same thing. Ordered mine at 0020hrs on the 14th and still no email. I do have a $1 charge on the CC.
 
I ordered mine at 1:57 am central time they came online early,i still havent gotten an email,but my order is in the system,i tried several times on the order status page and it coudn't find my order,but as soon as i put my last name in all lower case letters it found it,also called verizon yesterday and they confirmed they have my order.No charge yet on my card.
Mine says expected ship date 9/21 too,but it said that last yr and i still got it on time.
 
Don't get your hopes up...Apple has FedEx hold them and FedEx isn't going to screw up a multimillion dollar contract by sending out phones early. A few might slip out early but not the majority.
Don't be so sure...I have gotten phone day early for last two pre-orders, but I will be happy to get the phone next week.
 
That link, nor the link in the email works for me. I've tried with both order number and preorder confirmation number. I've also tried both 10 times in a row and it still says there is no order.

just call verizon and give them your information.

Did you try putting your last name in all lower case letters? That's what i did and it finally pulled it up.

I would call...just to make sure nothing is holding it up, but since you got a confirmation email you should be in good shape.

I like to know if this has happened to someone in the past... I pre-ordered my iPhone 5 around 4pm today over the phone. After the rep placed the order, its showed, "shipped by 9/28" But the sells rep told me on his side it showed "delivered on 9/21" He also told me my region of the united states must not of met its quota just yet and I should receive it next Friday... I guess my question is, Have any of you in the past received your pre-orders a week/few days earlier then the date shown?

not one week early. Maybe a few days at best.

What OS does the romney phone run (droid)? jk
 
Mine says expected ship date 9/26/12. I don't know why because I ordered on the phone and the rep said it was showing I would get it by the 21st. He said if I waited any longer to order it would ship later but I ordered it by phone at 10am.

I ordered a Black 32GB around the same time on the phone, and have the same date - 9/26. It says 'deliver by' 9/26 in the confirmation email and 'ship by' 9/26 when I check the status on the website. Status on the VZW website is still showing as 'in process'

You ordered at 10 am. you were lucky to get that date.
 
I still haven't gotten an email, nor do I get anything when checking the status online. My CC hasnt been charged yet either. What should I do?

I never got a confirmation email either, but I did save my order number. When I check it, it says ship by 21st so they have my order. Haven't been charged yet either, but I know it'll happen :p
 
I visually see any charges on my cc account online.

Should I be worried?

I see online that the ore confirmation is processing still
 
Amazing to see people who ordered way after me have shipping dates, yet my order was finished by 3:03am EST and I have yet to get a ship date on one of my phone orders? lol Kind of upsetting at this point.
