You'll see the charge on your CC first, then the status change. My card has been charged and am still waiting for the change to "preparing to ship"

Edit: literally just changed to Preparing for shipment and the dates changed from 27-29 to 26-28
But.. Apple hasn't charged my CC yet. I just don't understand why people that got later delivery dates are already being charged and the status of their orders changed to preparing for shipment..

I really don't understand why.

Well just got an update email from ups. My phone won't be delivered till Monday. It's gone from China to Taiwan and now it's sitting in Japan.
 
Well a little good news for some folks. I ordered a 128gb Black 7+ at 3:22am eastern time on apple.com for AT&T. My order said delivery in October. While my order status still says processing, when I searched on UPS using my phone number it says my label was just created 9/13/16.

That's promising news I must say. Hopefully that will be the same for many of you.

Any update on this? :p
 
Waiting for tomorrow...waiting for tomorrow...waiting for tomorrow...

That's the Totallee Scarf in Black ($9 on Amazon; I like ultra thin covers to protect from scratches while keeping the original size of the phone) and the PDair Leather Belt Pouch ($39 on Amazon; it's made for the 6s Plus but the Totallee case fits just fine).

The iPhone 7 Plus (Black 256 Verizon) is my first Plus-sized phone. So excited!

The ships: dates are the same though. We all have 6-8 business days...so they may be going off that. You will see your charge and status change today.

There were people in the past that received their iPhones before they were charged on launch day.

You should also double check and be sure that the charge wasn't declined. Happened to me a few minutes ago because Apple charged the Apple Watch first; then a second larger charge triggered a fraud warning.

Yeah I already double checked all that stuff.
 
FYI...

For those of us that ordered the JB Plus with delivery date Sept 26 - Oct 3, check ur order ur dates may have changed for the better. Mine just moved to the 23rd and is preparing for shipment.

I also think that in all honesty a lot of us who's phones are still saying Louisville, KY, United States could be on the move, I have seen it a million times were the depart scan does not update until it gets to the next place like it will show up that it left KY at 5:30pm the same time its scanned is at arriving in GA at 11:30PM.. So their could be some behind the scenes movement that we are not seeing

Not yet. Fingers crossed I won't be! I keep checking UPS obsessively & feel like I should be touching a lucky troll doll or something first each time. :p
Man, same here. I am in Chicago and not delayed but I keep waiting for the hammer to drop...
 
Going through this before with carriers the biggest complaint was for people getting phones on launch day that did not preorder. People got really irate. They felt preorders should be filled before walkins. I think in cases where there appears to be such shortages that should happen. I am sure some won't agree but in all fairness that would be first come first served.
