I have held other things from previous phone shipments (Moto and such) that used FedEx. They let me set it to be held at a FedEx by my work.
Anything from Verizon online though -- Requires signature delivery and also can't be re-routed or held until 1 attempt has been made.

Here's my Verizon PreOrder Saga:
Preordered a little after midnight on August 24 for a total of about $1060, with a trade in rebate of $64 for my Note 4. Then decided, why the hell would I do that? So went to the Samsung.com site to order my phone as a prior Note 7 owner, and did the trade in of a S5 for the immediate rebate of $480, and a pick of the promotional item, so the bill came out to about $590 (with 1 day shipping). I cancelled my preorder with Verizon but didn't receive any emails or text. Did it again the next day, and they confirmed that the system shows as the order was cancelled, and I shouldn't worry about it. Last night I get a text that my order was received and is being processed. I contacted Verizon again and was told that the order was cancelled. Woke up this morning to a charge on my credit card, and a shipping notification that my phone has been picked up and scheduled for delivery on Tuesday. Ugh! The ONE TIME I actually get to have my phone early is the one time I need it cancelled because I would rather have the discounted amount that the full amount.
Mind you, I was one of the folks last year who ordered the Note 7 from Samsung.com, but cancelled two days before the launch date to order from Verizon because I would be guaranteed delivery on the the launch date, and told myself NEVER AGAIN SAMSUNG.COM!!!
All for a wonderful beautiful phone that is the Note 8. And I will surely be back here again and again and again for the Note 9, Note 10, etc.

Knew Verizon charged my card last night but never got text or whatever saying note8 was shipped. Looked on my Verizon account and it says shipped. Woohoo. Time to watch FedEx guy go back and forth down street to find me like they always do since I'm in the country and my address is still kind of new. Have to flag them down most of the time lol.

Lmao. 1 out 5 times FedEx found me with no problem. UPS they don't have a problem. Course I don't see FedEx much on my street either. It's usually USPS or UPS. Usually when i order from Verizon FedEx comes between 4pm and 5pm. Sammy must want us to have phone in hand before iPhone 8 announcement that I believe I read is Sept 12th. Unless that's rumor.

Wait, last time I saw topic y'all were getting charged etc. You mean for once Verizon is shipping before T-Mobile? Wow. Not trying to rub it on or anything. It just seems to me that Verizon is usually the last one lol. So no updates at all?

Dang it seems like FedEx picked mine up before Verizon updated my order from processing to shipping. Or it updated as soon FedEx scanned it as picked up. I sure hope you see something soon. When did you get charged and get tracking number?
Picked up this morning and scheduled to be delivered on the 5th!
FedEx is gonna be busy! busy!! busy!!! on the 5th!
At least I GUESS I have a phone coming
When I check the order status it says shipped and gives me a tracking number and it says picked up and gives a delivery date.
But the order number is different....
But this morning I got an email from Verizon that said that my card was declined for some other $89 charges for taxes and the upgrade fee.
The person I talked to at Verizon swears that they will NOT send the phone until I pay the $89 ...
But it says shipped and I have a tracking number
I don't think Verizon's left hand knows what their right hand is doing at the moment....
Now when I check it's gone back to saying processing.
I logged onto my account and I don't see any mention of an $89 fee that I still owe and I don't see any way to pay it anyway.
They called asking me to update my credit card information but I'm really not comfortable doing that over the phone.
There's a link in the email to supposedly update my payment information but when I enter my information it just says "
Terms and Conditions is accepted for this order."
Underneath it it says"
Looking for status on an order with approved terms?
Check Order Status "If I click on that it goes to a page that says processing and still does not give me any way to update my payment information
And when I checked the tracking number again it said it was going to someplace called Snellville GA
so I guess that was someone else's tracking number
She said the order will cancel out in 7 days if I don't pay so I might just forget about it and let it cancel.
I just really don't have the patience for this nonsense.

I hope this isn't the case, but I seem to remember one other Note pre-order that SEEMED to have an early delivery date, only to find out that the carrier (FedEx, UPS, etc.) was instructed to HOLD them until a specific date.
I'd like nothing better than to receive my Note 8 on the 5th (as the FedEx tracking indicates), but am not getting my hopes up!

I just got my text message from Verizon saying that my phone has shipped and when I checked the tracking number, is says for delivery on Sept. 5.

And it has happened for me. No longer the lowliest of the low! A text message heralding the arrival of my Samsung Galaxy Note8 has been received. I feel that there should be a trumpet fanfare playing here abouts.
