So just like everyone else here for the most part I got my shipping notice late last night, figure it will come Monday most likely via UPS.

However I'm getting one rude CSR after another absolutely insisting that no phones have been or will be shipped before 2/10.. wtf.

stop calling them. they don't know what they are talking about 95% of the time.

Also, what would you be telling the millionth customer who called to ask when his iPhone was shipping? They are human too and probably would like to deal with "real" issues instead of crazy people who stay up to three am like us.

Yeah, you can't bother with CSR's...They don't know anything.

Just like Apple store people. The people on this forum know more about Apple's product plan and products themselves than they do.

They're all just trained to read a script.
 
I'm leaning towards believing you may get yours today too. She also said, the origin scan could have been after 8PM and still get there today (not as much guarantee). For example, UPS could have had your package since 6PM and just didn't get to scanning it until 9.

Interesting... It already shows a departure scan from Memphis but the weather is weird today, so I guess I will go back to my original plan of obsessively refreshing the tracking screen, haha
 
Called UPS -- They said as long as Origin Scan was before 8PM yesterday, NDA Saver will deliver TODAY by 3PM.

Mine says shipped/billed on 2/3....i would think that means today delivery then on UPS?

but the status is what confuses me...

Shipped/Billed On: 02/03/2011 Type: Package Weight: 1.00 lb

Shipment Progress

West Chester, PA, United States 02/03/2011 4:36 P.M. Origin Scan
United States 02/03/2011 6:21 P.M. Order Processed: Ready for UPS
 
Just got off the phone with UPS and they told me it is scheduled to be delivered today before 10:30AM! Btw my origin scan was in Memphis at 8:52PM

Yes -- If it was shipped Next Day Air Saver and received before 8PM by UPS. It is their GUARANTEE to delivery today by 3pm. Origin scan means that UPS has it on their truck ready to be shipped or transported to airport.
 
Just got my notification...from West Chester, Pa...I live 3 effin mins from the building...I.am.going.to.poop.my.pants.
 
For those who have received UPS tracking info, I have gotten Next Day Saver packages with a 1AM origin scan the day of delivery.

So your weekend could still not be a total loss, like mine is shaping up to be.

Super Bowl weekend ruined by having to wait for an iPhone? I have a problem.

Underneath the 'shipped by' portion of your tracking, what does it say? Next Day Air Saver or NDA Saver??
 
You can track by reference number on FedEx, for those who are wondering if maybe you just haven't received the email from VZW yet.

Use your location code mine is 0862001
Underscore
Your order number, MUST BE 9 DIGITS so if yours is only 5 digits, for example 76547, fill the prior area with 0's so 000076547

Track by reference on FedEx your number should look something like 0862001_000076547

You'll need to supply the country and destination zip code as well.
 
Reason I called in is because the UPS system and UPS reps say my tracking number is a bad number.

thank you so much for telling us this.
however, my location code isn't just numbers, it's N2114-01. will this work? what do I have to put? also, my order number is 1307, so it would be 000001307?
 
This sucks...my cc was pending for the purchase amount as of an hour ago this morning, now I log on to my account, and the transaction is gone....on the phone now trying to figure out what went down...

I would assume your location code would work, IF, your package has been shipped AND information uploaded into the carriers system AND the shipping carrier is FedEx. Otherwise, you'll get nothing.

Those of you who have tracking numbers, what kind of reference number do you have? By this I mean the one you'll find on your tracking page (UPS or FEDEX).

If we know what they use as a reference number (one of the numbers we have, or a name, or something) the people like me who can't check their order status and haven't received the email will be able to use the reference number to look it up.
 
Does this mean everyones with this location number have shipped?

WOOHOO. All the D771101ers out there I just got my shipping email! Says it's coming UPS next day air by 3pm. What a great mornig this is going to be!

I just got my shipping info at 8:28 this morning. The email was generated at 4:12am and the shipping info was sent at 1:41am. There seems to be some kind of disconnect. My ACE location is 771101 also. The tracking just shows shipment information sent to FedEx at 1:41am with no action since then. I have an expected arrival date of Monday which kind of pisses me off since people who ordered around 6am yesterday are going to be getting theirs today. I was online ordering at 2:55 yesterday morning and I thought that first come, first served meant exactly that. Apparently not. I guess I should be thankful I'm getting one early.
 
So I called Discover because nothing has hit my account yet. Customer Rep in the Business card division told me that Apple has sent the authorization through. I asked why it is not showing up when I check online. Here is the interesting part.

"It does not show up on your statement until it is a 'purchase'. The general rule for online retail is that it does not become a purchase until the retailer has shipped the order. Keep in mind that not all retailers stick to this though."

It seems like apple is doing that in this case.

Makes me worried that since I could not get the order to go through on Verizon at 2:53-3:20 because of the stupid "invalid address" error that now I am going to be waiting for a while since I ended up ordering from Apple.

Anyone else who ordered from Apple have it hit there CC yet?

I also ordered from Apple right before 8AM EST (the verizon site was very slow) and the CC charge is not showing on my card. I have not called the company, my order still says "prepared for shipment". Hopefully we will get some updates soon.

On my order confirmation email, it said (1) FEDEXSTDOVERNIGHT3PM. does this mean it was definitely fedex, or could they have changed it because of an order overload or something? (I understand if you don't know the answer to that) I submitted my order at 2:02am CST, so it's kind of upsetting that I still don't have an email and people who ordered it later already have confirmation it'll be there today xD my mom deals with shipping all the time at work, and says that they might not have entered an order number. I'm just really anxious d:
 
Still no official confirmation of shipment :mad:

I ordered yesterday morning around 6:30 ET (I'm in RI) and all I've got so far is my "Your iPhone 4 Order is Confirmed" email that arrived right after I completed my order for 2 iPhones.

Nothing else :( I'm not a happy camper right now.
