iphone 6 plus pre-order delivery

Hi everyone!

I pre-ordered my iPhone 6 Plus (64GB Space Gray) on Sept 12th as early as I could (at 4:30 A.M. through the apple store app on my iPhone 5). I tried to order it earlier, but as many of us know the Apple store online was down. I was so very disappointed. During the checkout time, my estimated delivery was Oct 1 - Oct 6 and it would be available to ship in 7-10 business days. My email confirmation stated the same thing.

This is also my first time I have ever pre-ordered an iPhone. My current phone is in pretty bad shape. The menu button popped off a couple weeks ago (it's currently being held on with scotch tape...lmao) and my screen freezes up all the time. I'm lucky if I can answer phone calls. Its not reliable at all to say the least. I have been trying to hold out for the new iPhone 6.

I have been checking my order status relentlessly since I pre-ordered and of course, it still says "Processing Items", with the same estimated delivery date and shipping time. I'm am desperately hoping it arrives earlier than October 1st - October 6th?!

Do any of you know if I will ONLY be getting my phone during Oct 1 - Oct 6 or do I have a chance of getting it earlier?

Does anyone know where all they usually ship from?

Do they usually ship via Fedex or UPS?

Thank you so much in advance for your help!

Hmm... thats very strange! Mine just got to Korea too, and they (UPS) are saying I should it by end of day tomorrow. I'll keep an eye on it. You might want to give UPS a call and find out what they have to say.

I ordered my iPhone 6 plus around the 12th or 13th of September through T-Mobile. I ordered the 64 gb model in Space Gray. We were told by the people inside the T-Mobile store that we would be receiving our phones by the following Friday (the 19th). I was so excited, I nearly stayed home that day so I wouldn't miss the delivery man. However, I haven't even received an e-mail saying my order has shipped. I also ordered it with overnight delivery, which seems pretty pointless as it will probably take forever to get here regardless. Anyone know when the T-Mobile iPhone 6 plus phones are expected to be here? I don't have a tracking number, as I ordered it through my carrier rather than Apple.

Just because you didn't order from Apple doesn't mean you shouldn't get a tracking number. All the carriers send out confirmations when an ordered phone ships. You should be contacting T-Mobile and give them your order number to find out status. I would bet T-Mobile has an online order status system, like most of the other carriers do as well.

Yes, just like what rbrylawskisaid, you should definitely have a tracking number. Call T-Mobile, or even better yet go back to that store where you ordered your phone and ask to speak with the manager. Make sure to have your order number handy and bring your receipt/or whatever paperwork they gave you when you pre-ordered.

Wow you guys. I just started reading everyone's delivery dates.

Most of you ordered on the 12th, very early in the AM too.

I Just got off my lazy rear and ordered a 6+ 64/gray and delivery date is Oct 22-29.

That's not too far behind everyone who pre ordered.

Hey, thanks for the advice to contact them. Although I didn't get a clear answer to why my dates have been pushed back, they were very nice. This morning when I checked my order said preparing for shipment. It's crazy how after I contact them my status mysteriously changes. O well, good luck with your new iPhone and thanks again for the advice!

Hey guys! Not sure if this will help all those waiting but..... as iv mentioned before i pre ordered a white/gold iphone 6 the same time as my sister pre ordered her black iphone 6. We both live at the same address & hers arrived two days ago while mine was still processing... i wrote an email last night to apple venting my frustrations about pre ordering & having to wait & wait & wait...... now my order status has went from processing items to preparing for dispatch, maybes just pot luck, i dont know but iv read this happening to a few other people too. Try your luck & see if you get a change in order status! Goooood luck xx
