You're fine, you should get a tracking number sometime between tonight and Thursday. They can ship the phone Thursday and it be in your hands Friday.
Got a tip for us?

I ordered off contract, and everything has been smooth for me. I suspect it has more to do with availability of color. My sense is 6+ space gray 64gb is the most popular color/size combo, and I think they just ran out faster for that. I ordered gold 128gb, which seems like the least popular color (probably because of the god-awful white antenna lines on the back), and relatively less popular than the 64gb.
Darn it all seems like they shipped my gold 128gb 6+ to you by accident :-D Kindly ask them to ship it to me instead haha since my order still shows in process.

I had this similar thing happen with my cc. Got the fraud call & called to verify. Then I immediately called Verizon to make sure my phone was still coming. Verizon had me resubmit my cc info because the original transaction had been stopped by my cc company.
12 hours after I did this, I had a shipping number. (I am on the east coast)
I ordered gold too, and I kinda like how the antenna lines pop out. Maybe im just weird hah.
If it's estimated, then they should say estimated, and if they're going to take preorders, then they should process them in order of "first come, first serve." That's all I'm saying.
And as I said, the 10/7 in my confirmation email didn't even bother me that much initially, because it is just a phone, of which I have plenty (I use multiple devices pretty consistently for development). Honestly, this conversation is more annoying than Verizon's bungled preorder process; there's no reason to jump down my throat because I added my story to the litany of evidence that Verizon (and everyone else, really) messed up this preorder process.

The apple stores don't even have their stock yet:
As early as Wednesday leads me to believe some stores won't even receive their inventory until Thursday.
I don't think we have too much to worry about.

Stupid people at verizon cancelled my order. Saying they have to re submit it and i cant get jumped to 9/19 shipping. She said there is no way they can do that. I spoke to several reps and all haven giving me completely different info. Im just going to cancel and go with a different company. Also leave some negative feedback with the better business bureau. This is ridiculous. I preorder art 3am 9/12. I verified with fraud div the same morning. Ive been told nothing but ******** responses by them. Verizon can go screw them self.
same no pending charge, no order history, no change to order status... nada.
FYI, i've ordered space gray 6+ 16GB at 2:58am EST showing 9/19 delivery, and received a confirmation e-mail at 5:15am EST with 10/14 delivery date
I just went and asked that and the very rude lady at my Verizon store told me Apple never sells these iphones for full retail upon release 🙄
I think after dealing with the idiots on the phone and the idiots in the store I'd say they are burnt out on it all and sick of us all asking them to do their jobs.
Well just got off the phone with Verizon CS inquiring when I might see an order confirmation and cc charge for the two 6+'s I ordered promptly on 9/12. I explained, like many here, I only have my pre-sale confirmation with delivery date of 9/19.
He stated on his end he can see that my order has been processed, I should see an email soon and a charge to my cc.
He did tell me though in his system my phones are scheduled to ship on 9/19 not delivered on 9/19. I asked if he was sure... he said "yes". Hope he's wrong.
He did say they are instructed to tell people who order the 6+ now to not expect the phone until mid november.

On the phone with verizon again. Every time its different info.
So now Im being told that even though my order went through very shortly after pre-orders went live, my account was affected by the ECPD error or whatever it was and my order didnt post until sometime after 6AM. Even though I have a confirmation email of the order almost immediately after the order went through.
So despite 2 reps telling me I would have my device by 9/19 Im now being told that the ship date is 10/14.

He is wrong. The phones will deliver by 9/19, this is confirmed by all the poeple with 9/19 in their tracking information. Reps don't know what they are talking about. This has happened with every iPhone preorder, the same discussion about whether it will ship on or deliver on the release date.
Point in case when I first was going to place my order over the phone, I later decided to do it online since I got past the EDCP error, the guy tried and talk me into $19.99 overnight shipping since he was convinced it wouldn't ship till the 19th. I told him nice try bro this isn't my first iPhone preorder and I hung up.
The Better Business Bureau is not a real agency. It's a completely commercial for-profit company. They once offered my business an instant "A+" rating if I just paid a yearly fee.

I saw a FedEx Freight Big Rig in front of my apple store this morning unloading pallets with lots of employees around it. Seems like some stores have them

Seriously. I came to find out the verizon reps dont know anything. I think they are just winging it.
