No respectable business takes money out of your account until the product ships. What you saw was a check on your account to see if you had the money at the time of the preorder. It goes away usually after a day or so. The money will be taken out when it ships. If you do not have the money at that time then it will not ship.

Ya my hold dropped off today too. I ordered 3 upgrades on our business account and 1 upgrade and 1 new line on my personal account all at 4am except 1 which was done at 3pm and thats the only one that shows backordered still. The other 4 went from backordered to just quanity ordered and still processing so there most be something going on

Dude, that is good news I guess. It's just uncalled for that AT&T would even try to pull something like that. It's kinda jacked up for them to charge your credit card already, especially since they continuously tell other people they will NOT charge the account until the phone ships out. That rep better stick to her word.

Im sure shes gonna remember me, her manager told her she got to be earlier in the morning so she can check my order, and if is not shipped she got to hold the iPhone for me. She even put a note on her system that is going to popup at 6am on the 24th just to remember me. And she told me even without the alarm shes gonna remember me because Im the only one on that ATT store that paid for an early upgrade. I already talked very good about her on the ATT survey that they sent me to my email, but I talked very bad too about ATT as a company. It is nothing to be with the employees is the ATT service, you know what Im talking about. The best thing is I dont have to make the line or sleep on the ATT store since the 23th I can go there at anytime to pick it up. She deserve a raise.

If they give all the 4 you shouldn't be angry, as you can make profit- and what is more now those with canceled pre-orders can get an idea on how on earth that could happen!) some gets 4, others none)
But something tells me it is just a mistake - and you were charged for nothing) deal with it as if too much time passes- will take ages to proof them anything.

Finally! I'm a lot happier now that my status says "shipped." Finally!! They shipped it the 18th, so I guess I should check my mailbox. I didn't think they were going to ship it that early though. And I didn't know it was going to be FEDEX'd. This better not be another glitch.
Ummm...weren't our iPhones supposed to be shipped on the 24th? Not earlier? I think their tracking system is messed up. Anybody have any ideas?
Thanks

I know it's hopeless but I placed my order thru apple, and got the cancellation email on Sat. but AT&T site says still in progress. Is there still hope?

Got my order in at 8 on the 15th and mine is saying it's backordered. Might go to best buy, buy one there and cancel my preorder. Think that'll work?

Don't go to Best Buy, their stocks are very limited and I don't think they will even get enough to cover all their preorders. As much as the lines are going to suck, goto an apple store.
