AT&T Canceled my order...... due to "system issue"

Looks like I won't be getting my GS7 Edge as early as anyone else. I received an email today telling me that due to an unexpected system error, my order was canceled. This is not the first time I've heard this happen through AT&T but nevertheless it is frustrating. I have to start the whole process again and if pre-ordering doesn't work online, I'll have to wait until it is released to get it. :( I had a problem pre-ordering since it kept choking at the fact that I still had an old unlimited data plan. Thanks AT&T.

In the meantime I will enjoy your posts of your new phone. I'll tell you, I'm sort of disappointed so far at the lack of pictures and things from those of you who've received your phones already. :)

Just go into the at&t store and pre-order it. That's what I did and I have the old unlimited data plane too. The only real advantage of pre-ordering now is to get the free Gear VR. (That's the only reason I pre-ordered)

Did you upgrade using the Next plan? I tried to pre-order it at the AT&T store as well as Best Buy and I was told that I needed to wait until the phone was released before I can buy the phone outright immediately ($749.99) and that the pre-orders were for people on the Next or wanted to open up a Next plan.

I was skeptical, but I was told this at two AT&T stores and a Best Buy. This is just odd - I've never had this problem before. I've pre-ordered paying full price with no issues until now.

Thankfully I think the GearVR is still available if you purchase up to one week after release, so I'm hoping it's still the case.

It's like I have this money to buy a phone and no one wants to sell it to me!
