hahaha :p

lets hope not. But that was a good laugh....much needed

Not quite so funny when you are watching your phone get to the Elite Level of UooPS Points. On our itinerary was a phantom sidetrip to Louisville on the Korea to Hong Kong leg.
 
Yes, that! I'd rather just be surprised. At least I can take comfort that there are no 7+ 128 available in my local store, either. That would be too much. My last two pre-orders have been a disaster. Last time I got a release day shipping date, only to have UPS not deliver it until Monday. Grrr. This year I had a release day ship date when I first added to my cart, but it slipped to 23-26 in the 60 seconds it took me to fill out Apple's financing form.

Yeah. This launch is so messed up. I have started to lose interest in getting this phone. Who knows I might even return it depending on how irritated I am when I get the phone. LOL. I am not prepared to be unhappy after coughing up close to $1000.

well less "haha your phone is taking forever" and more like "haha, Asian mainland tour was a good way to put it" Cant laugh when my phone hasnt even been assigned to me yet...

Amen!
I knew what you meant and appreciate the commiseration. UPS has definitely been off their game but what can you do.
 
My phone is in San Antonio! Only a couple of hours away from me! Cannot wait for tomorrow!!!!!

I had my phone ship with the same date. But it's been in ZhengZhou since yesterday. And my delivery date got updated from tomorrow to Friday. I'm hoping to see some sort of movement by tonight or early morning tomorrow. If not, then I don't know if it'll arrive Friday
My literally did that same exact thing. In zhengzhou now and hasn't moved since. And my date pushed back.
 
I was one of the lucky ones whose phone jumped from Zhengzhou to Louisville early this morning, but I'm so terrified it won't arrive today either. It's STILL out for delivery, and it's already past UPS' usual delivery times. It's currently 7:16 PM.

Getting nervous.

EDIT: 7:47 PM. It's here. 7 Plus, 128 GB, Black, GSM Unlocked

Same here for me. 256GB Black +

Nothing since 9/21 8:01pm
I hope we're all on the flight tomorrow. Our phones will all be good friends by the time they land in KY, having spent so many days together hanging around China and Korea, LOL.
 
Luckily my phone wasn't in that Kentucky/Hong Kong debacle.

Though it did update to 9/21 Wednesday delivery for today I got the "A mechanical failure has delayed delivery." update and got rescheduled for tomorrow.

Got that departure scan from Kentucky and should be here in Phoenix in 30 minutes with delivery set for tomorrow. Excited, but ready for UPS to somehow screw up again :p
 
I am so confused. I pre-ordered a iPhone 7 Plus, Silver, 256 gb, AT&T through the Apple Update Program (first time). Status changed to Preparing for Shipment on Saturday the 17th and nothing has changed since then. Apple has my delivery dates as 10/05 - 11. Does anyone else have these delivery dates? I was hoping to get my phone next week - is that possible?

Your phone should be getting marked as "shipped" pretty soon now that it's Wednesday.

Last week, in the late Thursday afternoon I went into PFS, and my phone was shipped Sunday.

I think it's taking about 4-5 days after it's been shipped to get to people.
 
I don't understand the process for determining who gets their phones before anyone else... It seems so random when reading through all the original shipping dates. What's this chaos and whyyyy am I still processssssing? *insert distressed face here
 
I guess there were no phones on ups99,

Anyone who's phone was stuck in Incheon seen any updates on UPS?

I rang UPS who couldn't tell me anything apart from it hasn't landed in the US.....
 
I think you should call up UPS and roast them. They've been ****ing around with too many packages. Pricks!
Haha I'm so frustrated! Did something similar happen to you? I just contacted them on twitter and they are getting hammered. The person told me that their system makes planned movement scans and actual location scans. My phone was never in South Korea. I don't work for UPS but that doesn't make sense.
