My date changed to the 5th of October and my order was placed as 2:01 CDT. I called when the date changed from the 21st and while I was on hold I received an email saying that my card was declined. I finally got through and they said that the card was declined. I think it was over my daily spending limit. I gave them another card and it declined and sent a fraud alert text message. So the 3rd card seemed to be the trick. The guy on the phone said it will still ship on the 21st and now my date has been removed from the status page but it still says that payment hasnt been made. grrrrr.
Got a tip for us?

Ok, so phones are shipping or shipping soon. Now, my question is: Do I have to sign on delivery?. This is very important, because I will be at work when it is delivered, and if I miss it then I am going to Falcon Punch the entire goddamn city
LOL! Yes you will have to sign. Leave a note with the receipt attached saying to leave it or with tracking info and signature.
I do. Card charged, order sent for processing, ship date blank, no receipt in my verizon. I'm not worried though. If they charged my card then my guess is my phone's about go on a little Florida vacation.
bank denies declining, money was there.
Interestingly, it was charged the full amount, and then reversed for full amount.
Dammit, of course Capital One's login system isn't working right now so I can't even check to see if I have a pending charge yet...
I cancelled T-Mobile finally for Verizon to get the iPhone 5, I preordered two of them for my gf and I on Friday at 5:30am Chicago time, got the same 21st delivery date. My card hasn't been charged yet and still the same order is in process confirmation. I really hope it changes tomorrow. Rep told me everyone who preordered that morning should receive tracking information via email by the 18th, hope he's right.
Trust me it won't be that packed by the time that you come in with the iPhone 5.
Odds are they won't accept that, but it is worth trying because some will. My area seems to be quite lax about signature issues.
i got an email from capitol one around 3:30 stating potential frauduland charges on my cc. called them to confirm it was ok to authorize. 5 mins later i check my statement and it shows the verizon charge but it has been stuck in pending for 3 hours. also my status has been changed to 'processing' on verizon site. hope i am o k
Well I just spoke to Verizon and they said I could just activate it right on my line and not my gfs, they said I didn't need to get a new sim card either.
Mine did that. After a couple calls to my card and Verizon I almost gave up but it turned out to be a billing zip code mix up. The Internet Sales dept of verizon got it fixed and my order seems to be back on track.
Read it and sob tears of jealousy
Here is the attached screen shot. I don't want to include the tracking info b/c someone will probably call and mess with it. I will upload pics tomorrow when I get it. Fedex confirmed that it will arrive tomorrow, Verizon said that they will not hold it and I will get it tomorrow. HORRAY! I am so pumped! I'll post pics and spread the love don't worry. I might go to the apple store on 5th ave and see if anyone will give me over $1500 for it. WOOOHOOO!!!!!!

No I don't lol sorry. How are they going to tie the SIM card to that line when the phone is sealed and came from china? They tie the ESN/MEID and all that good stuff to the line and when you call to activate it downloads and stores data on the SIM.
