Apple can do EDGE upgrades in store I believe but not online. They currently only allow ATT NEXT online.

My iPhone 6 Plus 64G, SG arrived at the local FedEx facility this morning. Should be out for delivery today.
Ordered 9/28/2014, morning at the Verizon store. Shipped 10/28/2014. Spigen Slim Armor standing by.

Just to be clear, I am not counting on mine to ship out tomorrow at all, which would suggest that yours will be late as well. I would be happy to see it shipped on time (10/31), but I think it won't ship until 11/7. Just a hunch given the scarcity of Gold devices.
Verizon order status page has been displaying a "experiencing technical difficulties, check back later" message for at least 3 hours so far this morning...perhaps because of the drones of iPhone Plussers checking their orders??
Ditto.
My SG iphone 6+ 64GB is on the truck for delivery today. Ordered 9/26 online with ship by of 11/7.
Puregear Dualtek Extreme Shock standing by. I bought the Spigen slim armor (metal slate) in September, but the more I play with it, the more I'm concerned with how slippery it is. Had to go with something with a little more grip and a little more protection, but I'm not going to spend Otterbox money on a case.
64GB Gold (and silver) Plus ordered 9/20, ship date was 10/31, recently changed to 11/3
I may need to purchase a "cheapie" case JUST so I can start using my plus before Otter gets around to releasing the Defender in the color I'm looking for... If I do end up doing that, my new phone will be treated with SUCH care it may drive me insane...
My bad, it wasn't a Slim Armor case, it was a Thin Fit case by Spigen.

My wife rolls her eyes at me, but I've been carrying my empty case in my pocket for a while now trying to get used to the size.
I love Trident cases. They cost less than a Otterbox, but are just as good to me.
My silver 6 plus 64gb has shipped. Tracking number is on my order page at Verizon. Ordered 9/21. Original ship date 10/31 was moved to 11/3. Shipped on 10/30.
I'm ready
I've finally decided. I have a ship-by of 10/31. If my Iconic status doesn't change to S by 12:00:00AM on 11/1, I'm canceling my Verizon order. This is just torture. I'm in Chicago there's been frequent stock at Apple Stores Targets and Best Buys. I just can't deal anymore. Are you happy VZW?! You broke me.

It's been that way for the last 48 hours... lucky they send me email when my phone shipped
I made cardboard cutouts to size... and have been playing with it like it's a phone. I think I may have a problem...
Anyone else with a tracking number having trouble? Fedex is rejecting the format. It looks like there are 16 digits. I'm used to only seeing 12 for Fedex. Iconic says carrier is Fedex.

Join the club, I added a piece of scrap metal for weight.

I took the cutout of an "actual size" photo of the iphone 6+ out of a magazine.
you might want to try this case... might even like it more than an otterbox. Not quite as protective, but also nowhere near as bulky. I went with an even slimmer Spigen, but I'm not rough with my phones

Ok, so I have the email from Verizon now with shipping info, I got it around 7:30 am, about 12 hrs after iconic changed. my phone is due to arrive on Monday. I was promised overnight shipping but got 2 day instead. Kinda knew that was going to happen because of what people have been posting here. Anywho.... I'll deal with that I'm just glad my phone shipped.

So even though the order status page is not working, I checked through "My Verizon" and clicked on "My Orders." Both iPhones now show up, which I take as a good sign! No tracking info yet, but this is the first time the phones have showed up in my verizon. Hopefully shipping out by Monday at the latest!
Color me delivered!

For those that have a ship-by-date of 10/31 and have NOT yet seen any movement on their devices...
From the looks of the latest Verizon Community Forums, it appears many customer service representatives are informing folks that 10/31 ship date will be honored, irrespective of color (unless of course your ship date was already pushed back). Apparently, VZW is expecting a decent supply from Apple and they have plans to fulfill the promised pre-orders. Perhaps a glimmer of hope!?
