Date you ordered and received the phone vs. "will ship by" date

From what I gather they are shipping as well also out of West Chester Pa...( I am in Pennsylvania)

You would think that, but mine is shipping out of memphis, TN for some reason. I guess west chester didnt get as many as planned. oh well as long as its on its way i dont care where its coming from.
 
I guess that makes sense. I never took it as personal, just bewildering. But I hadn't considered it from the business standpoint, only the customer. Either way, tomorrow I should have my phone. One day isn't going to kill me. I'm pretty patient. I just couldn't figure out the logic on holding my phone for delivery tomorrow.

Phone ordered: 5/21
promised 6/11
Shipped: 6/4
Delivery: 6/8
shipped from Ontario CA to SLC, UT


I ordered the phone 5/21 (as part of a BOGO w/ a Motorola Droid). Called yesterday, and found out it shipped on 6/4; with delivery set for 6/8. CS gave me a tracking number; tracking number showed it sitting in the local sorting warehouse as of 6/5. I had a late package to deliver to fed ex, so I drove out to the warehouse and asked about my package. the fedex agent checked my order, and their computer, and informed me I couldn't pickup it up because it was part of a "containerized shipment" that would get delivered tomorrow.

So, I'm anxiously waiting today .... but I guess that FedEx has their procedures in place to maximize their efficiency, not necessarily their service.

Hope you get yours soon!!! This phone is for my wife; I got mine 4/29!

Ordered and Processed May 25th here, I wish it was on its way :(
 
The Email notification comes right away with the tracking number, right?
I never received an email shipment notification and my Incredible is on the FedEx truck for delivery as we speak.

Ordered: 5/19 over the phone

Shipped: 6/4 from Ontario, Calif

Delivered: Today whenever the FedEx guy gets here, Seattle area
 
'right away' is a pretty subjective term.... I would say you rec'v it within a few hours, possibly sooner, possibly not. I rec'vd my email notification 1.5 hrs after it was picked up by FedEx.

Good luck

I've seen a lot of people getting them in just a few minutes. For example, mine was picked up at 7:21am this morning and I received my e-mail notification at 7:26am... not too bad of a turn around time for notification at all.

Are you a 5/22er?
 
Ordered in store on 5/27, no email or communication from Verizon. Called and they said it should ship by the 17th, but i'm getting really impatient.

Called Verizon today.

Cmon, hurry up!!!!
 
I'm an in-store 5/26! Hanging in there but not patiently. For what its worth, I called twice and was told that although receipts and cs terminals at vzw say 2-day FedEx, all orders are Next Day now because of the back log.

C'mon 5/26!!!

I wish they would have upgraded my shipping to next day :( but I should have it in my hands on Thurs... 6/10 :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

Yeah - I'd say that's pretty quick!
 
My UPS guys sucks. I once required a package with a signature from bestbuy. My mom and I were home, he didn't even ring the doorbell. He just walked up left the sorry i missed you slip and we heard him driving away.

That does suck! I read an article about getting jobs for UPS and it states that drivers have something like 30 seconds to get out of the truck, make the delivery, and get back onto the truck. That's insane!
 
My 5/23 order has been shipped!!!

ordered: 5/23

I'm a 5/27 too. I wouldn't expect anything except the shipment email notice right before it ships. At this rate I'm guessing Fri at the earliest up to next Mon. :(
 
Thanks everyone for all your help with Fedex alt/ref Tracking
If it wasn't for the help on this forum I would have no clue when my phone was coming. In short fedex received shipping info 6/7 at 1:31pm est. Never updated until 6/8 at 10:45am and is in Newark NJ. CSR's were clueless as to why I did not get E-mail notice. Last one tried to blame on notification turned off on my account. I think it just missed the West Chester Pa scan since it doesn't show on fedex. Got a supervisor involved and esplained my whole story and got the restocking fee for my Eris refunded. It's arriving 6/9 by 7:00pm 2-day fedex.
THANKS AGAIN EVERYONE!
P.S. IF YOUR CLOSE TO YOUR DATE, USE THE FEDEX ALT/REF TRACKING. IT SAVED ME!
 
My 5/22 order has been shipped!!!

ordered: 5/22
shipped: 6/8
estimated delivery: 6/10 by 7pm

I am in the Los Angeles, Ca area and it's shipping from MEMPHIS, TN :confused:
 
Does Fedex/Verizon ship Saturday? From what I've been reading it sounds like everyone who ordered 5/28/29 their DI's will ship mid next week? Would that be possible?

Thanks

Thats what I am hoping for, I am going out on a limb that 5/28's in Ca may get their phones by the 15th. I am very close to the Ontario shipping center so my fingers are crossed.
