Pre-order is a scam !! No one can tell me what's up with my order !! (ordered 9/14)

Stupid. They just told me I should have an answer by Sun. Seriously? I should have just gone to the apple store this morning & waited in line.

I'm in VA ... still waiting for an email and credit card charge... ordered over the phone 9/14 @ 12:57pm est (estimated delivery 9/26)... ARG IM TOO IMPATIENT FOR THIS. Only reason I waited so long was because I had to convince them to give me an early upgrade.. tehehe... guess I should be happy I'm even getting it!

G'boy, if you have twitter you should tweet Verizon Support. They helped me a lot and sent me all my information for my pre order.

Thanks, but I just got home with our new i5's !! Decided to drive to the apple store, there was like a 100+ people, drove to the Verizon store around the corner. I was out of the store with two new phones in less than 2hrs !!

Pre-order is a waste of time,  a scam.

Great info BravesFanJ - if I may add my contribution, based on your lead, it is somewhat like yours.

Location: Humid Houston, Texas

Pre Order placed: 14 Sep 2012, 8:45pm CT. ( Verizon Wireless Online)

Confirmation Email Received: 14 Sep 2012, 8:51 pm CT

Pre Order Date Changed:  between 16 Sep and 20 Sep 2012

- change from "Delivery 9/28/2012" to "Ship by 9/28/2012"

- no notification from Verizon* see note below.

Credit Card $1 Order Charge falls off:  20 Sep2012

Credit Card Charged (Pending Approval): 26 Sep 2012, between 3pm - 5pm CT. 

I also was NOT yet able to see my credit card transaction yet in My Verizon under the Documents/Receipt tab.

Check Order Status Change (NOT Pre Order Status): 26 Sep 2012, 5:30pm CT

Ace Number, Ace Location

Status shown, "order has been sent for processing"

Carrier, tracking number, and delivery date fields were blank.

Received Verizon Wirless Shipping Notification email:  27 Sep 2012, 5:26am CT

shipping Courier: FedEx

Tracking Number: #############

Shipping address: my street, city/state/zip info

Checked Order Status at VZW Status website (NOT Pre Order Status): 27 Sep 2012; 5:26am CT

Ace Order Number: XXXXXX

Tracking number: XXXXXXXXXXXX

Carrier: FEDEX

Status:  [blank]

Verizon Documents Receipt now available at My Documents in my online account.  (It was generated in Atlanta.)

Successfully verified FEDEX Tracking number afterwards

Date/Time                      Activity                                                           Location

Sep 27, 2012 05:20  Picked up                                             MEMPHIS, TN
Sep 27, 2012 05:29  Shipment information sent to FedEx 
Sep 27, 2012 09:59 Left FedEx origin facility                       MEMPHIS, TN
Sep 27, 2012 10:15  Arrived at FedEx location                     MEMPHIS, TN

Unlike others I've read about, this tracking doe not start/or doesn't include China origination information.  This instead appears to come from the FedEx hub in Memphis.

* The change from "Delivery" to "Ship by" could have impacted actual delivery by 5 calendar days due to the weekend.

I may have missed seeing it, but today I'm seeing for the first time, instead of using my phone number, my FedEx tracking is using a variation/concate of location_confirmed order numbers

Format:  [7 digit order location number]_[9 digit order number]

Omit the brackets of course - my order number was 6 digits in the email, so my tracking leads off with 3 extra 0s at the front - example, if this were someone's info in the email:

order number:  123456

order location:  7890123

Your tracking number would be (17 chars total, where the location and order numbers are separated by an underscore char):  7890123_000123456
