Ordered 64 GB White from Verizon 10/7, when I check the order it says "the order has been received and it is in process. Expected ship date 10/26

Really hope to hear from them again soon. Sold my 4S and am using old Droid Incredible while I wait :(

Ordered my 32 GB black from the AT&T store on 10/9, was quoted 14-21 business days before it ships. Waiting semi-patiently is tough work. Keep hoping for an early delivery miracle like some of the other folks on here.

Has anyone whom ordered from Apple check their status lately? I just logged in and checked but I could swear that they moved the date on me. I ordered Oct 1st, and it states 3-4 weeks, but now my delivery date is Oct 31st to Nov 6th. Doesn't that mean more like 4-5 weeks?

I ordered on 9/23, expected on 10/24. The order is still processing and I haven't been billed.
lol I ordered the day after you and mine is expected the day after you. I just called Apple it will say processing until it is being shipped. Your credit card wont be charged until it has been delivered.

I ordered on Sept. 24th and it says 3-4 weeks with a delivery of Oct. 25-31st. 4 weeks would have been Oct. 24th but I'm sure they'll say it's business days blah blah blah. Meh as long as it gets here on the earlier date I'll be happy lol *fingers crossed*

Ordered my Verizon 32gb White iPhone 5 on October 10th, with a ship date of Oct. 26. I just got an email confirmation that my iPhone was shipped today with a delivery date of Oct. 22. I can't wait.

Ordered on 9/23 as mentioned and found out this morning that it has shipped. It's not supposed to arrive for another 6 days (Thursday). I was hoping for 1 day shipping from apple/ups. It would be nice to have on Saturday!

I also got the shipped status however tracking the package it says next Friday is the delivery date. I'm hoping beyond hope that it's a rough estimate and it will get here much earlier. I'm still excited! forget Christmas this is the moment I have been waiting for all year :)

Did you order from Apple?

I ordered mine 28th September, and it says estimated date: 24th to 30th October. It still says it is processing... I wish I would be lucky as you and have already shipped!

By the way, did you get an instant email saying that the iphone was being prepared to ship? Or you only knew it was prepared for shipment when you checked the order status?
Cheers!

Oh how I wished I ordered from Verizon. How is it they will deliver quicker than Apple?

I originally ordered mine from apple.com which a pending ship date of nov3-10. I called verizon later that day and they told me they had guaranteed delivery by the 26th at the time. I canceled the apple order and ordered from verizon and it was shipped 8 days later, 8 days before the expected date. I understand AT&T is shipping much faster than apple.com as well.

My 5 has left China and is in Korea so it's on its way! Will be ready for pick up Thursday but due to me being at work until Saturday I won't be able to pick it up until the following Monday. Can't wait to have it!
