Whose hasn't shipped?

I pre-ordered on the 25th, no charge on my card, no email, still saying July 11th ship by date. It is upsetting that people that pre-ordered later are receiving their S3's before those that pre-ordered on the first day; with all the new changes (whether for the better or worse) such as upgrade fees (seriously? really unnecessary...) or the new share everything plans, you would think Verizon would try to please their customers somehow... It's nice of them to ship out early, but if they're gonna do it early, at least do it right.
 
Shipping notice received, arriving later today.

I ordered 32 blue, day two of pre-order, then in a frantic mess had to (under instruction of the vzw associate) cancel the order to make changes to my account then re-pre-order on the 21st of june, which then gave me a ship date of the 10th...after i had a confirmation of the 9th...will that one day be the end of me...:'(
 
Just got my shipment notification early this morning with a tracking number but it's not displaying on fedex's site yet. Order status said it was shipped yesterday.

Great thing to wake up to! :)

Edit: It seems like the order status page was incorrect. Fedex information updated and it looks like it's shipping overnight but won't be delivered till Monday by 3 pm. Not a huge deal but was kind of hoping for today. C'est la vie!

Almost had the same thing happen to me. I ordered on the 6th talk to a rep about what would happen if I canceled decided I didn't want to cancel. Hung up got an email to confirm my cancellation.... Was like what happen? Called back sure enough the lady did cancel it can't fix... you'll have to reorder... so I had to reorder & the was the 19th. UGH! NOW I wait. FIGURE God must be trying to tell me I think a phone is way to important and is trying to teach me patience.
 
Mine shipped out this morning, marked for overnight delivery...

FedEx doesn't deliver in Saturday so my expected delivery date is Monday. That's frustrating.

I hear you.. Got my tracking info this morning, expected delivery is Monday. A little disappointing because I'd have liked to have it for the weekend. But, no complaints.. Big red said I'd have it by the 9th and seems they will deliver, literally

You want frustrating? Mine is scheduled to be delivered today, but I'm stuck at a family reunion for the next two days so I won't get it until Monday anyway!

Found a little backdoor to tracking your phone. This is for the people with the credit card charged, but no tracking # yet. Verizon is using reference # based on your order number and location.

In your confirmation email grab the two numbers, I will use N for order number and L for location.

Order Number: NNNNNNN
Order Location: LLLLLLL

Go to the below URL, put in your reference number as "LLLLLLL_00NNNNNNN" based on your order number and location. Use your zip code and the ship date. Leave account no blank. Mine comes right up. Note, 2 of my orders had order number and location as 7 digits. You may need to tweak it if each of those are > or < 7 digits. Use 0's in the order # section if the order # is less than 7 digits, example for 5 digit order number would be 0000NNNNN.

The above format works for Memphis overnight orders. You can also try the PA location with the format "LLLLLLL_000NNNNNN01".

Are the upgrade fees new? I paid an early upgrade fee last July. I haven't gotten an extra discount in years. Last year they gave me a bunch of accessories for free because they really wanted me to buy the Thunderbolt.

I am wondering if people are going to just pay retail after this to avoid losing unlimited data. I know I use 6-12 GB per month on my own. My other lines hardly use anything, but my concern is they might start at any time.

Mine still hasn't been charged/shipped/or updated. Ordered 32GB Blue, with a dock and tectiles, I wonder if having ordered the accessories is slowing it down. I ordered on 6/16, and it's coming to NE PA, hopefully it will update status soon, I feel like I'm getting boned here when I see others nearby getting theres, and I'm stuck waiting.

Upgrade fees were announced and put into affect awhile ago.

People have been posting they will be non-subsidized phones going forward to keep unlimited. Check older threads.
 
Still no activity on my pre-order and it was placed on 6/22. Normally i would just sit back and wait but thanks to the wonders of the internet I get to hear about how everyone elses' order has already arrived. Fantastic.
 
Big red came through. Got my CC charge yesterday afternoon, and the shipment email later in the day - overnight for delivery today.
 
I am in the same boat as other people who want to change their order. I went from a blue 16GB to a white 32GB, and I am worried.

Pre-ordered online on 6/6, but decided I wanted to change to the white. Called on 6/25 to get my order changed, and was told it was not possible, and I would have to reorder. Asked if I needed to reorder online because I am using an upgrade from a different, dumb phone line, and was told "no", I could do it on the phone. We canceled the first order and made the new order on the phone with the CS rep, and was assured I would keep my unlimited and my ship date would now be 7/11. But I get the confirmation e-mail, and it says 2GB for $30. I called CS to confirm I would be okay activating on my line and keeping unlimited data, and was of course told I would. All was fine and good until yesterday when my credit card was charged for the 16GB model ($244). I have a terrible feeling my order is going to turn into a train wreck. Anyone have odds on me getting bent over??

Sounds like the worst case is the two orders are both going to get filled, you activate the first phone to keep your contract then call them and complain like crazy about how they screwed it up, swap the sim into the one you wanted all along and send the lousy 16GB one back.
 
Still not a word. No update, no email, nothin'. My girlfriend's is here though. Gah.
