No update here(9/18 6+ 64 SG), but I have been fighting with Verizon for the past two weeks trying to figure out why my 5s is flagged as a CLRN (Certified Like New Replacement) when it was purchased new as a pre-order last year and has never been worked on. It has been a nightmare....

Ready for my new phone to make up for the headaches

Just checked on mine and it is also listed that way. WTF?? never had any work done to it, bought new.
 
Is it just me or are the last few days before the "ship by" date the longest? Come on 24th ship dates!

This past week has been torture. I think we are waiting on another shipment to come in, devicechecker is looking pretty bleak nationwide... Fingers crossed for tonight!
 
I have had a support ticket open with them since October 6th, with reps giving me fake dates. Today after being on hold for a half hour they said they had no ETA on the issue and could not give me an update. Even one of the reps on Saturday said that CLNR did not mean refurbished and why does it even matter to me my phone is flagged that way. Well if I sell it now used I have to mark it as a used refurbished phone and not just a used phone. I am not going to trade it in, I can get more else where.

My iPhone 5s was bought brand new and was never listed as clnr until I signed up for early edge on October 5 when I ordered my iPhone 6. I was assuming it had something to do with the fact that I have to turn my phone in because I am early edging up.
 
I got my Iphone today. Store could not do the $200 credit since it is past Oct 15 so I have to mail it in, but hoping that goes smoothly. Hope everyone else gets their phones soon. :)

I went into local Verizon store on sunday and they said they are still honoring the 200 dollar trade in, in the store. Until the 31th
 
It is changing. Slowly... but it is changing. You are starting to see available coverage improving on other carriers. Verizon has been the only option in many remote places out west, but you are starting to see that changing.

Agreed. Add me to the club of people who like AT&T and is heading back to VZW due to being just a bit better where I really need it than AT&T. I can honestly say that AT&T is probably 95% or more as good as VZW for me but it's the 5% that ended up pushing me back to VZW. Have been with VZW since the PrimeCo days and last summer went over to AT&T but I'm back, for now. I will probably end up paying off our phones and hopping on VZW Allset.

I ordered a Space Gray 128gb iPhone 6 Plus on 9/18 with an original shipping date of 11/7. A week later it got moved up to 10/31. And 3 days ago I got a tracking confirmation and my phone should be here later today!

OMG. I ordered the same on 9/18 at like 12:08pm ET. What time did you order? That gives me hope mine should be here soon.
 
If you ask me, the shipments have slowed down recently. I'm giving VZW till the 31st, and then I might cancel my 6 64GB SG and get the 128GB if they will honor my original Edge plan. I'd receive the phone in about two days if I did that. It's just that I've waited this long, so I might as well give them another 10 days.

I bought my 5s outright, and now my 6+, holding on to my awesome super old plan as long as I can.

There are so many phone options coming up to consider with several carriers.
 
SHIP already!!!

I feel the same way as you so you are not alone, skychase5! This anticipation is killing me....:mad::confused: I ordered the same iPhone 6 Plus as you but a day earlier... still not shipped yet.:rolleyes:

Shipped yesterday and delivered today! Some of you thought I might have been mistakenly shipped the 6, but it is the 6+. It's a lot bigger than I remember it being in the store.. probably wouldn't have minded if they had sent me the 6! Grass is always greener.

Didn't think I'd get it so soon, so I don't have a case yet. Scared to use it! Anyone have the I-Blason clear case? Might get that until that wooden case is released.

What was your initial ship date?

Congrats! Just upsets me and I'm sure others when you had a 10/7 order date for the same phone that others have ordered many days before, come on Verizon...
