Mine too! Which is awesome, except for the fact that I asked them to hold it at the CC!!

I usually never have this much trouble with UPS, they are really dropping the ball on this one.

They may still deliver to the customer center. Here, the main distribution center is different from the customer center where I have asked them to deliver mine.

Hi from Portugal, i have ordered the same on 13 sep. to deliver 10 - 17 oct. Same situation?
 
Mine changed to Preparing for Shipment midday 9/15. I received my shipping notification at 7am on 9/18. Apple says it will be delivered on 9/22. UPS says 9/20. It is currently sitting in ZhengZhou, CN.

wow, we are in exactly the same situation down to every last detail you described. im excited and bummed at the same time because if its still at zhengzhou, and not even showing departed, i can't imagine it being delivered tomorrow...
 
128 MB + AT&T still processing 10/4-10/10. I'm seeing others with 10/4 delivery dates now shipping...I have hope but it almost makes it worse. Why not mine? Seems like the Verizon and Sprints are going out. If I wasn't grandfathered into the unlimited data, I'd have switched years ago.
 
Just received shipping notification on my 10/4-10/10 7 plus black 128g AT&T phone! Will arrive the 22nd!

Really??? Seconds before I post my exact same model is still processing...that hurts me. I am hurt. I must resist temptation to think AT&T and Apple are conspiring against me. ;)
 
No, I have myUPS setup and just got a text from UPS. nothing from Apple yet. Still says preparing for shipment.
If you try to track by reference do you get any hits? Mine also changed to preparing for shipment yesterday, but UPS can't find anything with my order number or phone number.
 
..... Apple.. really?

Here's the current UPS flights that are in the air:

Eastbound

1. UPS109, Tokyo - Anchorage, Arrives at 11:03am Anchorage Time
2. UPS99, Seoul - Anchorage, Arrives at 12:13pm Anchorage Time
3. UPS59, Hong Kong - Anchorage, Arrives at 2:14pm Anchorage Time
4. UPS61, Taiwan - Anchorage, Arrives at 12:28pm Anchorage Time
5. UPS63, Hong Kong - Anchorage, Arrives at 12:23pm Anchorage Time
6. UPS77, Shenzhen - Anchorage, Arrives at 2:19pm Anchorage Time
7. UPS81, Shanghai - Anchorage, Arrives at 1:34pm Anchorage Time

There's also a flight INTO Shenzhen from Anchorage that's due to arrive in a bit.



I'm currently still stuck in ZingZang according to UPS, and it's been showing that since early yesterday morning. Delivery is still tomorrow by end of business day, so I'm hopeful that it's on one of these airplanes. The status says "In Transit To UPS." Whatever the heck that means.

Although it IS a possibility that UPS is using an outsourced company to ship these phones from other cities to mainline UPS flights, like another company may possibly be flying it to ANC, and then UPS takes it on to SDF. I'm not sure how that works. All I can assume is that the computer systems don't allow for great online tracking of our packages if our phones are in Asia and aren't directly handled by UPS. That's an assumption though, and you know what they say about those! ;)

I screwed up for the 2nd year in a row and didn't get in on pre-orders until about 3:30am PST, though last year I still got it on launch day. the 7 is the first time I haven't had the phone on launch day, and I have had them all since the 3G. Anywo, I have a W56xx order number an the same 10/4-10/10 delivers date, do you mind telling me what yours is?

I am hoping that flight into Shenzhen will grab our phones and quickly take off to Anchorage again.

And lol, I just happen to check myups page and it still says delivery by end of day tomorrow, but when I go on the main ups tracking page, says updated to Wednesday...I am so confused. Fingers crossed that our phones are on the next plane out of Shenzhen. I don't have a in transit to UPS status though, mine just says Arrived in ZhengZhou.

Wow Apple. I have a 27th-29th for the same phone/carrier that has been PFS since Thursday. Nothing since then. My card was charged Thursday too. Not sure what is going on at Apple this year, its never been this unorganized in previous years.

Not that mine was updating anyway (still showing in ZhengZhou like you), but now that I changed to pick up at the local CC all I get is "Delivery change requested"...and "Scheduled delivery information is not available at this time. Please check back later."
 
Ok, Just wanted to give everyone with an expected ship date of Oct 4-10 a heads up.
I ordered a matt black iPhone 7 plus 128Gb GSM on launch night. A verification email came in at 3:18am EST with a ship date of Oct 4-10. On Saturday I noticed my order went into "preparing for shipment" and just a few minutes ago I got an email saying it has shipped with an expected delivery of 9/23. I went on to the UPS site and typed in my phone number which showed that the last location of my package was "ZhengZhou, China, Monday, 09/19/2016" and gives a delivery of "Wednesday, 09/21/2016, By End of Day".
