Got my confirmation email from Verizon at 3:16 am Friday morning, but still says that "We received your order, and are processing" However, do have a pending charge of $1 on the AmEx...no tracking numbers yet. Is there a way one can look up info on UPS/FedEx with Verizon order email info? I.e. phone number, order number plus location number?
 
Man VZW isn't giving us any fun at all :p Just a charged card and a never changing order status.
 
Ordered around 12:15 PST (32GB Silver)

My card was charged today (yay!), but still no new status on the order. I did look up the paper receipt as others have above, and it shows FedEx 2 day. I checked FedEx track by Reference, but nothing there yet.

I did walk by the Santa Monica Apple store today, and they had phones even at 4PM. Only the gray though. I was slightly disappointed (no immediate gratification), and slightly glad, as so far my choice to order online has panned out.

Just curious, what numbers can you use to track by reference?

Based on past year's threads you can use your location number_order number

See: https://forums.macrumors.com/posts/15776270/ for one example

The location and order number are on your confirmation email. In years past there have been several variations like location number_000order number where VZW put some number of leading zeros on the order number. I have been trying a few variations, but with no luck so far. We might have to wait until the first tracking number shows up, or someone who is smarter than me about FedEx looks into it.
 
Still no charge on my card or any new email outside of the original order confirmation at 12:11am 9/20. :(

Order Status: We received your order and it is in process.
 
ShipShare

Hi all - Just letting people know that I created a simple tool for sharing our tracking info, ShipShare.

It's free, I have no profit motive. Just looking for something more efficient than scouring the forum for a quick update.
 
Because they're trying to get an idea of when theirs will ship. I don't see that as difficult to grasp.

I'm sorry but you really should see the logical flaws in someone basing their expected ship date on a sample size of about 30 people. Thousands and thousands of people ordered these things. Just because one person's phone shipped doesn't mean someone else's is going to.

Actually its a good indication. Since I am sure Verizon doesn't just ship one at a time. When they ship a phone they will ship thousands at a time.

Same thing happened when people noticed their credit card was charged. One person noticed so I checked mine and they charged around the same time. Just like charging, Shipping is done in bulk.

This. I read on here that a CC was charged, so I checked mine and BAM! $351 charged to my card. :eek:
 
Has anyone's order status changed from "processing"? My card was charged and all but still no shipping info. :( Wish I would have ordered through Apple website now! Seems like they're having all the fun lol.

I'm 90% sure our phones will ship monday, and 75% confident we'll have them by Wednesday/Thurs. I'm hoping thursday because I'm in class all day and I'll miss the delivery.

Maybe we can be lucky enough to get it Tuesday... :eek:

You can also call FedEx and set it up so that you pick it up directly from their post office, so you can get it a day or so early. At least, that's what I read in this thread but it does make sense.
 
I just checked my pre-order status again and there is now a Fedex tracking number. Delivery date of Wednesday :). Ordered the 16GB Space Gray @ 3:01AM EST 9/20.
 
Just checked my preorder status again, and still "processing". Got my order conf at 3:16 am on Friday shortly after they went on sale. But given the sounds of things, should hopefully get tracking number soon. I agree with others, with a ship by date of 9/24, should hopefully receive by Tuesday-Thursday. :)

Is your shipment in FedEx possession yet? Curious if they are being shipped from a domestic location as it appears the Apple.com orders are coming from China.
 
I think everyone who ordered GREY or WHITE will have theirs shipped out on the ship by date or earlier. Those colors have supply, gold doesn't.

The real question is: will the GOLD be shipped out by the ship by date or get pushed to a later date....

I bought gold and nothing changed since I ordered it. No charge, no tracking etc. while people with grey and white had their cards charged already.

FYI gold 32 gig w/ ship by date of 9/24/13
Ordered 9/20/13 w/ confirmation at 3:31 est
 
It is coming from West Chester, PA as I am on the East Coast. This is the order location (D772001) I got in the original confirmation email from Verizon.

I hate to say it, but I think 3:31 may cause some delays for you :( let's hope not!

Yea I'm starting to believe this too. I brought the gold 64 and everything was set at 3:02 am EST w/ confirmation number but nothing as of yet neither, no charge to card nor a status change. :(
