Had to go through many calls with my banks and Apple following card authorizations, but my Macbook Pro is FINALLY PFS!!. I'm crossing my fingers that they ship and deliver ASAP.
How did you know there was a problem with your card? Did you get an email or something?
 
What?? What does that mean? Why did you have to go through all those calls?

Nothing you should be concerned about.

My cards were debit cards, so it took me more than a few calls to my banks to get the authorizations. And after that, then instead of waiting I called Apple directly to make sure my cards get charged instantly. Had to go through this twice coz I had listed 2 cards for payment.

As long as your card is able to charge the required amount, your transaction should be smooth.

And I must say the customer care folks at Apple were very considerate and helpful.

Yes. Apple sent an email saying my card was declined and the order needed to be updated. Also I got a message from my bank as well stating that a transaction was requested but declined.

The Apple email suggests to use the Apple account to update card info, but you'll rather use the Apple helpline. It's convenient and you'll get immediate responses.

I placed the order for mine around 2PM EDT on October 28. It just went to "Preparing for shipment" overnight.
 
I was hoping to receive it before Thanksgiving but I've been P4S since yesterday afternoon. It's looking less and less likely unless they have some quick shipping.
 
Payment went through this morning (11/21), order is still processing. At least there's movement!

15" BTO (2.7/1tb/460), ordered at about 10am PST Oct 30

Edit: It went to PFS just recently. Looks like theres a 12-36 hour delay between having the charge show up and the order status changing.

Same boat. On the bright side it seems like Apple's shipping estimates are holding up. Everything is happening as it should (albeit, way, WAY too slowly).
 
Mine is delivers Nov 28th-Dec 5th, just changed today (the 21st) to "Preparing for Shipment".

Fully loaded 15". W00T.
 
Finally preparing for shipment, delivers 29 Nov, 2016 - 06 Dec, 2016 by Standard Shipping. Ordered October 29th. I'm Happy:p
