I'm in the 7+ 128gb MB AT&T 9/9 ordered 10/4-10/10 deliver club as well. I swear if someone says the "p-word" at work today, I will snap. And since I work in accounting, highly probable.
Got a tip for us?

No, I pre-ordered from Apple.com on 9/9 and chose to use AT&T Next as payment.
I shouldn't have any issues canceling as long as the order is still "processing"
So after a scenic tour of China, incheon, Hong Kong, Anchorage, Louisville, and Atlanta....the wife's phone made it to the local distribution center Saturday morning. I put in a Hold for Pickup last week as I usually do for all UPS boxes that matter. I checked online this morning before heading to the pickup center. The phone still showed as being there. So I walk into the Pickup Center desk where the lady knows me well. She said..."Do I have something for you this morning?". No one had marked the phone with a Discovery label for the Pickup desk. In their tracking system the package still showed as being in the center. Because she knows me she said I might as well head to breakfast as she would have to call the dispatcher to call the driver for my route to see if the package is on the truck.....and was never scanned out of the the warehouse. Around 30 minutes later I get a call on my mobile from the Pickup desk that sure enough the phone is on the delivery truck for delivery by the end of the day. Someone will just have to sit at home all day as signature is required.
And to think........this is with paying $10 extra to Apple for expedited shipment!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey everyone, I just got my iphone7 Plus jet black today. But, i am gonna return it. First, the screen color looks very warm and the night shift mode is off. Second, the jet black looks bad when I put the clear phone case on. I think I just gonna update my old iphone 6 Plus to IOS 10, and save $947.
Hope you guys will like the Iphone 7 better than me.

Hey man, I think you're the only person left from the original thread. Any luck getting your phone yet?? This has been an enormous headache. But I spoke with supervisors etc, was able to have local dispatch call me to organize with the driver a good time for the package to be delivered so I could be there to sign today, 3:30PM or later - We will see if it works out but it feels good to have them work with me a little bit more. I was pretty livid when I had spent all day saturday waiting for a package I was told would be there. Also I asked for a refund for expedited shipping because the package was supposed to ship in 2-3 business days, it's now been 6 business days. I will be happy when this is all over.
Well, I went a different route again. I originally 'reserved' a phone for pickup using the reservation page, but I found another local store (we have 3 in our city) with more stock so I canceled my Apple.com order (still in processing HEII), and found one available for pickup in store, so I ordered it through Apple.com, went with AT&T Next and in-store pickup option. I'm a happy camper, and lesson learned, i'm never pre-ordering a phone again if it give me more than 1 week delivery time. I'll take my chances to pick one up in store. Unfortunately this is not an option for people who do not live near an Apple Store.
I was in the same process HEII with you and found one locally for the first time since launch. Wouldn't let me reserve it so I had to cancel my apple.com order before I could place a pick-up order. I was a little anxious but then figured I'd not get one from the online order for at least a week and that's a week full of days that could get a unit delivered to the store that I could try to get. Luckily, the order canceled and I got the order through for pickup later this afternoon. I checked after and they still have stock available so I guess I wasn't in jeopardy of missing out. Now I just need to try to get the watch S2 I ordered and might not get for a month. processing, processing, processing, processing, processing.....
I also ordered a 128GB matte black 7 Plus. My order should've been placed shortly after 3AM EST, but due to lack of sleep I incorrectly entered the last 4 digits of my social security # one too many times and got locked out for an hour. Ugh. I eventually got my order in at about 4:15 AM and my status remains unchanged with an Oct 4-10 delivery date. Oh, well. I can wait.
Same, I was a little anxious after canceling my order and it wouldn't let me place the new order because it thought I still had an order in for the same phone line, but after about 5-8min, it went through. I just checked iStockNow, and the store I got mine is out of stock but another local store has more. Looks like stock is increasing, just no JET BLACK yet.
I ordered a matte black 128 GB last week and Apple.com says it delivers 10/7 - 10/14. Is there any chance it gets here sooner??
Also - I checked iStockNow - the phone is available in a store near me. Can I just go and pick it up? Or will they make me cancel the order and reorder it?

I think we are about to see some changes. I checked my order and they tried to charge me but had an issue. I just got off the phone with Apple. Got my cc info corrected. Still says Processing but my dates have changed to 9/29-10/5. I expect to see preparing for shipment soon.

I initially ordered a jet black right after preordering opened (and the wait of trying to get in) but the more I thought about it the less I wanted the jet black, though I still think it's the best looking of the lot. I always use a case the thought of scratches and fingerprint marring the finish made me change my mind and I switched my order about 12 hours later. If I'd kept the original order, I may have received it by now based on how many people have had their JB orders ship much earlier than Apple quoted.
if you check your order status on apple.com does it give a different date? on apple.com I have an estimate for friday, yet no mention of Friday at all on UPS
