Guys I got a feeling we'll get ours sooner than we think :)

I think so too!! I feel like we're gonna get bumped up soon! I ordered the exact same phone btw
[doublepost=1473488233][/doublepost]
I woke up at 2:40 AM to make sure I wouldn't miss the pre-order. 3:00 AM rolls around and the store is still down...3:01...3:02...........3:08 AM, still down on my iPhone via Apple Store App and Mac via Safari. Around 3:09 AM I was finally able to get in online via my Mac and ordered my Jet Black 128GB iPhone 7+. By the time I had gotten in, the online store was estimating dates into late September, but apparently in the two minutes my order took, dates had slipped, because the confirmation email reports a window between 10/4 and 10/10.

Also ordered a 256GB Jet Black 7+ a few minutes later and got the same window.

Trying to stay optimistic about this one but after the fiasco with the Apple Watch launch last year, I'm not too hopeful. I'm going to call all of my local AT&T's on Friday to see if they have any in stock and hopefully I can pick one up in store, providing I still haven't received the ones I preordered yet, at which point I'll cancel the preorders. What a mess.


I know same thing with me!! It was a nightmare! I just moved so I hadn't changed my address with ATT yet and so I couldn't get it sent to my house and I couldn't get through on the carrier site...what a mess!!

Ordered @ 2:24amCDT... Originally it showed 2-3 weeks but then I got a strange message when ordering that said my order could not be processed but they were reserving me a iPhone?? It then started the process back over from the beginning and by the time i got through it the 2nd time around, i received the 4-6 week shipping window. o_O

Order # W59XXXXXXX
iPhone 7 Plus 128GB Jet Black (GSM) AT&T
Ships: 4-6 weeks
Delivers 18 Oct, 2016 - 31 Oct, 2016 by Standard Shipping

I do remember getting my SG 42MM Apple Watch 2 weeks sooner than originally quoted so I am hopeful that the same will happen here :rolleyes:

I also got stuck in the "We'll be back shortly". I was refreshing 3 devices (iPhone, iPad and MacBook). I wasn't able to get on until 12:15 PST. I ordered Matte Black 7+ 128g. Delivery 10/4-10/10 :mad:

Sooooo frustrating....

It was! I was there will bells on ready to go and because it didn't load at the right time I feel like I got stiffed! Originally I had the Rose Gold one ordered for Launch day but I really wanted the black.
Same as you Appy! I refreshed on computer, phone and iPad and nada!

Nothing here. I'm in the 18th-30th window. I screwed myself over when pre-orders started. I had my pre-order done, all I had to do was tap "Submit" on the Apple Store app, but I was upset that my delivery window was September 26 - October 3, so I went to see if I could do in-store pickup (which wasn't even available). Little did I know I had to start over, and by the time I had gone through the process again, I got pushed back to the October 18-30 window..

Hoping we get bumped up a few weeks.. :(

Am I the only person with October 5th-11th as a delivery window? I see October 4th-10th but not 5th-11th. Strange.

Hm, that is a little strange. I haven't seen anyone with that window. Mostly 4th-10th range.

Same window. iPhone 7+ 32GB Black. I'll check over the weekend at my local Apple Store for availability and I'll cancel my order (I wish). From Spain btw.

I wonder if it was because I was one of people that got a reservation number initially. I tried over and over starting at midnight(3am EST) with no luck. Finally at 3:16 they gave me a reservation number that expired the following day at 4pm. The reservation number was broken until 1 hour before it expired. I was sweating BULLETS.

Order numbers don't really mean anything. I don't even believe they are sequential. I wouldn't base your position "in line" on your order number.

You know what's weird, after I pre-ordered my iPhone, I received an email at 6:30 AM (a few hours later) saying that I have an iPhone reserved for me. What's weird is that my Reservation number never worked. The link that was in the email had two options to sign in: either Apple ID or via Reservation number and Wireless number. I tried both options, and it never worked for me. I tried all the way up until the expiration time, and it just never went through. I called Apple and the representative that I spoke to advised that as long as I got an email with a confirmation and an order number, I can ignore that email regarding the reservation. I still was nervous and didn't really understand why I received that email in the first place. But, regardless, my Verizon Jet Black 256GB is quoted with an October 18th-30th delivery date even though I pre-ordered within the first 20 minutes.
