Is anyone having problems checking the order status page. All of a sudden this morning the paraphrase they ask me to enter is jibberish and it wont allow me to chek the page. Tried refreshing couple of times but same result. Are they now started restricting checking the order status page as well....

same here. I ordered mine on the 17th and got the terms and conditions on the 18th. I'm in Miami, FL and mine is still saying back order. They told me that it will ship between the 8th-17th... i'm just hoping that it's sooner.

Ordered a 32G Black iPhone 5 on Wednesday afternoon 9/19/12. Status changed to backorder 0 this morning. I hope it ships soon. I will keep everyone updated to better track the method (or lack thereof) for fulfilling preorders. Apologies to those who preordered before me and have yet to see any status change.

Lost my shape-Trying to act casual!
Can't stop-I might end up in the hospital
I'm changing my shape-I feel like an accident
They're back!-To explain their experience
Isn't it weird/Looks too obscure to me
Wasting away/And that was their policy
I'm ready to leave-I push the fact in front of me
Facts lost-Facts are never what they seem to be
Nothing there!-No information left of any kind
Lifting my head-Looking for danger signs
There was a line/There was a formula
Sharp as a knife/Facts cut a hole in us
There was a line/There was a forula
Sharp as a knife/Facts cut a hole in us
I'm still waiting...I'm still waiting...I'm still waiting...
I'm still waiting...I'm still waiting...I'm still waiting...
I'm still waiting...I'm still waiting...
The feeling returns/Whenever we close out eyes
Lifting my head/looking around inside
The island of doubt-It's like the taste of medicine
Working by hindsight-Got the message from the oxygen
Making a list-Find the cost of opportunity
Doing it right-Facts are useless in emergencies
The feeling returns/Whenever we close out eyes
Lifting my head/Looking around inside.
Facts are simple and facts are straight
Facts are lazy and facts are late
Facts all come with points of view
Facts don't do what I want them to
Facts just twist the truth around
Facts are living turned inside out
Facts are getting the best of them
Facts are nothing on the face of things
Facts don't stain the furniture
Facts go out and slam the door
Facts are written all over your face
Facts continue to change their shape
I'm still waiting...I'm still waiting...I'm still waiting...
I'm still waiting...I'm still waiting...I'm still waiting...
I'm still waiting...I'm still waiting.

My "official" order date per ATT is Sept 19th for 1 white and 1 black 16GB iphones (ya, they tacked on 3 days from when I walked into the ATT store and ordered)
HAPPILY (I think), I'm today in the same boat as Glock1 4-5 posts above and ChrisSum30.
For about a week both phones said "BACK ORDER 1" (I did not keep track of when it switched from backorder 0 to 1)
This morning my white phone is still "BACK ORDER 1" BUT.......
This morning my black phone CHANGED to "BACK ORDER 0" (Yippy ! ...I think) Could mean I'll see a tracking number in 2-3 days????
How on Earth, did ATT cause us to sink so low as to become giddy w/ cries of joy watching BACKORDER go from 0 to 1 to 0 again? But I'll take what I can get. I could have walked into any store in the last 2 weeks an picked up a phone. ARGGG. Oh well...
PLEASE...ALL OF YOU....we WANT to see your changes, updates, BACKORDER going from 0 to 1 or whatever BUT PLEASE ALSO TELL US WHEN YOUR ORDER WAS AS WELL. It kinda helps us who see little or no change.

I am in teh same situation as all of you. Ordered mid day 14th. Terms took untill the 18th to process. Even though I accepted them the same night. ATT rep upgraded the wrong line and thats another story but it was 2 seperate orders. Second order fixed on the 18th Terms took 2 days to process (20th).
I have learned so much for my next upgrade but for know I am @!#$@#. Still on back order, If I would of known I would not have ordered a 16GB. I think the majority ordered white 16GB. If you ordered a black 16GB you have a better chance of getting it sooner. Thats why it is first come first serve depending on model type.
Mistakes.
1.Order 16GB white should have gone with 32GB or 64Gb would have gotten it quicker. I have a 32GB iphone 4 and didnt use much space. you can always uplaod pic to PC who really needs more than 6-8GB songs?
2. Order on the phone with ATT. Thier website accepts terms quicker. Or Apple website would have been the best option by far. Att messed up my order to. but like someone else posted I recieved alot of credits that covered my two phones upgrade cost and some change
.
So if you are waiting for a white 16GB I think there is a longer wait time. Other modeles someone can order a 64GB and get it shipped immediatly! I hope this helps. I have spent over 15 hours with ATT on teh phone bad CS and they dont care. getting a credit from them is almost impossible.
I cant cancel order because then you need to wait for for them to restore your upgrade availability. I will just need to wait this one out. Next time i will never again order from ATT phone rep or even thier site. But come on you all Apple site wasnt working for the first week. All links were non functional

I ordered my 16gb white iphone 5 on 17th, around 6pm ET, but it shows date ordered: 09/18.
I ordered through premier discount link, and never received any email about terms and conditions. What is exactly this terms and conditions thing?

Thx. I ordered online and I don't remember if they asked me to accept any term or condition.
I was worrying all about this.
I recevied their email on 17th and it said 14-21 days. Does it mean I will get my iphone next Monday the latest? Or it is actually business days and there would be another two weeks...

Ordered on 19 Sept...
Finally saw SOME progress the other day when checking the order status, I see it now says 1 under backordered instead of nothing at all/processing. If I use the link they provide in the acknowledgement email, it still reports "Processing".
Now on "Business" Day 10 of 14-21 (when counting only M-F and not the day of ordering)

Had to join the fun forum here, as I also have back ordered 0/ordered 1 with no ship date... Been like this for 5 days. Called the overseas customer service lady, and she says its been activated, and they are waiting to ship which could take anywhere from 14-21 days. I said that basically the phone is ready to ship, however it might take ATT 3 weeks to put it in the freakin mailbox? I don't think she knew what a mailbox was. So glad I decided to make the switch from Android to the iphone 5. ![]()
