Why do people keep calling it a glitch ? It lasted almost a week and ended on the last day of the 3rd QTR so it was no doubt a promo to boost the low sales numbers. Remember to swap sim cards and throw away the sim that comes with your phone. It will save you from dealing with a customer no service nightmare

Updating from 5 to 5S. Throw away SIM that comes with 5S and install my old 5 SIM?
 
Unlimited Glitch Upgrader Here...

Tried activating my 5s shipment last night but ran into issues. Called VZW they confirmed the issue was me having unlimited on the account. They tried to pull me off and put me on max (6gb). Said no, said they issued a statement saying they would honor it. Was put on hold for five minutes. They came back saying they found the statement saying they would honor it and they would take care of it. Tried to activate again... No dice. They had to pull unlimited data to activate then reissue it.

Just an FYI for my mr VZW friends.

I am another unlimited data glitch upgrader - I had the same exact experience this morning. I called to activate the new phone. The rep said that they had to put me on max (6gb) even though my new contract stated unlimited data. I asked to speak with a supervisor who ended up removing the unlimited data and adding it back successfully. Total time with customer care was ~15 minutes and well worth it. Both individuals were courteous and professional. I couldn't be more pleased.
 
According to FedEx, 8pm tonight! Even though it left on their truck at 8am. C'mon man.
 
Ordered 32GB Space Gray on 10/1. Card was charged and have a receipt in my documents. Still no tracking info.

Yep, me too. I hope it ships today for delivery on Friday. Going to be really annoying if it doesn't go out until tomorrow, meaning it won't be delivered until Monday.

Again, ordered 32GB Space Gray on 9/30. Sounds like Verizon got a shipment of them from Apple.
 
How long after credit card is charged does the phone ship

So after the credit card is charged, how long after that happens does the phone ship? I had it on two day shipping so I'm wondering if I will receive it on Friday.

I ordered a 64 GB space gray on 9/25 from Verizon on the phone and I was just charged today. It's been a while and hopefully it will be well worth the wait.

You'll get it tomorrow.

I was charged yesterday and just got mines.
 
My shipment just appeared on the FedEx site, in the last 3 minutes. I was able to find it by Tracking by Reference Number, and using my Location Code and Order Number in this format:

[orderlocation]_000[ordernumber]

Ex: W111111_000222222 (with W111111 as location and 222222 as order number.)
 
Mine just got shipped by FedEx! 64 gb Space Grey.. ordered Sept. 28th and ship date by 10/28. I tracked the package and I have a delivery date of this Friday :)

Awesome, thanks for this! Verizon just says it's processing, but this is telling me it's shipped!

Left from PA this morning.
 
Got sick and tired of waiting for my gold iPhone. I didn't think the Apple Store or Best Buy would have any in stock, but I decided to check Best Buy anyway...

I drove about 40 miles to a store that said the phone was available "in store only."

When I got there, a BB employee said they had 5 in-stock gold iPhones, but all of them were pre-ordered and stickers were placed on the boxes for reservation as soon as they received the delivery this morning.

I was a little pissed because the website said there were some in stock and it didn't allow me to reserve it. So he checked the computer and came back to me saying someone cancelled their pre-order! I walked out with the only gold iPhone they could sell.

So incredibly relieved that I don't have to wait until November to have one.
