I have 2 orders, one for a 128gb silver plus and one for a 128gb gold 7. Both say delivery on the 16th but neither are showing on my support profile or in tracking. Hoping they're already in the states and are just waiting to have a label slapped on them. Anyone in the same boat? (Which in this case is no boat at all...)

Apple needs to stop doing "account verification" for Verizon iPhones when ordering "pay in full." There is absolutely no reason why Apple needs to get this information when paying in full. This is just Verizon being Verizon. (AT&T does it too). Once again, buying the T-Mobile version since it's the only one that doesn't make me have to jump through those account verification hoops. I am on AT&T GoPhone (still the cheapest plan by a long shot) and I always pay in full; yet whenever I try to order any phone that has a CDMA radio for sure in it on launch day---I go through that EVERY SINGLE time. Thank god T-Mobile is so disconnected from this process.

I can give you at least one reason: billing address

Apple pulls the billing information from the carrier and makes it the shipping address for your new device. I assume this measure exists to prevent some sort of theft or fraud. I know for a fact that this is the case for AT&T but I do not know for sure if the policy is the same for the relationship between Apple and Verizon.
 
Whats strange is my billing phone number is (000) 000-0000... literally all zero's. I checked my order from last year on the 6s, and the 6 the previous year, and all are zero's. I used the Apple Store App to make all 3 purchases.

I just ordered a Leather Case from my Mac, and this actually lists my REAL phone number. Anyone know whats up with this? I am now tracking all zeros for my reference number to my zip code... Kind of a pain.
 
well right now there is one iP7 on my support profile but it doesn't say which one it is. is there a way to search for the package with the serial number?
 
People might go crazy with this survey from fridays purchase that even this is down LMAO

7+ 256gb jet black AT&T with those shipping dates 1:15am mdt order time

Mine is 7+ 128 Jet black Verizon order #W55.... Took forever to complete this transaction because I had completed my spouse's transaction first. That phone will arrive this Friday, but it is not mine. I bet I will just unwrap the box, play with it and never give it back till October LOL. I do not care what my spouse thinks at this point!
 
So I hit up UPS for the 50th time and now I get a place holder when I search by phone #. The Screen says Order Processed Ready for UPS. my support profile and order status haven't changed still says processing. Is this a good sign?
 
Case solution from Amazon. Just received an email from Spigen. The tough armor jet black case mimics the finish on the jet black iPhone. I wanted that color phone but figured it was too long to wait. I asked spigen users if it was comparable to otterbox and got positive responses. Only downside not available until the 23rd. Ships prime at a great price. I had to get an interim case. Next up tempered glass screen protector. Still wondering if I will get my 7 128 matte black launch day. Hoping for the best as that's what it says. Can no longer cancel so maybe that's a good sign.

Yes, it's all part of the process. No need to stress over it because you will get your phone this Friday.
 
update number 2 now both of the iP7's that i've order are in my support profile. my guess iP7+ was "put into the system" yesterday and today and the iP7's will be tomorrow and Wednesday. no updates until friday

LOL my spouse is on the upgrade program and couldn't get the color he wanted. Has to go to the mall to get one. Meanwhile, mine's on the flight from Anchorage right now. My web order # starts with W58...
