[upnorth85]

Ordered 9/9 11.15 PM CT - 32GB iPhone 7+. Status changed to preparing for shipping
Ordered 9/11 11.00 AM CT, Apple watch series 2 42 MM SS. Expecting delivery on 9/29.
My wife's Apple Watch series 2 38 mm SS has still not changed status and could take some time.

I was checking my order, and now my order cannot be found and when i try to search it on order number it says invalid number? What happened?

 

[Mackie99]

Looks like everybody who ordered 9/9 has a shipping but I'm starting to get mad come on Apple this is taking toover long atnt 128gb MB 7+ still in process

Ummmm...NO. I ordered 9/9 @ 12:14 - 128 Jet Black T-Mobile 7 Plus - Still Processing.

I work for a company who had stock held up by Hanjin. It's a damn mess. I'd wondered if that was part of the problem.

And the Hanjin mess is likely pushing shipments from ocean containers to air freight. Air freight companies don't have the capacity to handle the extra shipments; so they are allocating capacity among different customers.

Ummmm...NO. I ordered 9/9 @ 12:14 - 128 Jet Black T-Mobile 7 Plus - Still Processing.

I've seen that with both the JB and MB 128s of all carriers from later in the day on 9/9. I think the 128's are "don't hold your breath unless you want rose gold"

1 step forward, 2 steps back...

Received confirmation email late on 9/24 that my phone has shipped! Great, except now its done nothing but sit in ZhengZhou (last status update was 9/25) despite the fact that it was scheduled for delivery today 9/27. Saw that many others in the same situation had tracking suddenly show import into the U.S. this morning but I've had nothing, so currently on hold with both UPS and Apple support and neither seems to want to take responsibility or offer any help as to finding out where the package really is. Incidentally, Apple.com has always showed a 9/30 delivery date - but given the fact it takes most orders ~4 days to arrive once leaving China that seems unlikely to be true either at this point!

After almost 2 hours (this shipping fiasco must have them going absolutely bonkers at the CS centers) of Apple support in the background, I was finally connected with a support person who agreed to submit an "exception" to Apple's shipping department to have a "past delivery date investigation" placed on the order, to get Apple to talk directly to UPS, and "even issue you a replacement order if deemed necessary"

Boggles me how customs issues can holdup shipments from major tech companies for days at a time.
Meanwhile, the countdown clock is ticking ever so closer to the magic 14-day expiration whereby I'll have to return the "temp" 7+ I picked up in store and go back to my ailing 6

I wish! I got the 128GB rose gold and its still processing. 18 days of processing.

Boo that. It was their big seller last year I figured they would have at least had a few of those in the states for the launch. Looks like we all equally get to be frustrated lol.

I guess I should have put 12:14 AM. I ordered 14 mins. after midnight pacific time. Not in the afternoon.

Well my MB 128 a with an est. 10-4/10-9 was finally delivered today around 5:30PM after a Sat. delivery attempt at my workplace. On Monday it showed as "Out for Delivery" but never showed up and I waited at work until 8:30 PM. It was never scanned back in that night but showed "Out for delivery" again at 2:00 AM.

As much as I didn't like waiting at the local Apple Store for 3+ hours for my reserved 6+ on launch day, I would rather go thru that ordeal again than go thru this roller coaster ride with UPS.

 

[pzykho]

is an Apple store far from you? I just placed an order to buy a 7+ black 32GB Tmobile, I am going to pick it up later today, while waiting for my 7+ jet black 128GB, I want to try that hissing sound, if that is recorded on video I am going to return it and cancel my jet black order.

As mentioned on my previous post, I got a 32GB Black 7+, just to give it a try, saddly that hissing sound is noticeable

Just got import scan Louisville KY

 

[Steve686]

I bet they are using the left over 6, 6s to construct the 7. Probably because they didnt think about refresh, look at the apple watch, same old design (no one likes) and heavier.

And all they have to do is fill in the headphone jack hole. And remachine the camera holes. And after that, remove the antenna receptacles on the 6s series and install it at the top.

I have ordered my iPhone 7 Plus 32GB Gold on September 24, 2016.

I have an estimated time of delivery showing from October 25 - November 1, 2016.

I wanted to know if everybody is getting their iPhone as per the time frame which has been given or there are delays?

It still shows Processing Items. After reading a lot in this thread, I am expecting to be under process for at least 2-3 weeks.

I just want to know that the delivery is within the time frame or not

 

[Shafdawn]

10 days without any movement.

 

[Jimbo Asprilla]

Finally some movement !! still no delivery estimate though.

Order details: 256 GB 7+ JB AT&T, ordered 9/9 through Apple, first time IUP, confirmation at 3:23 AM EDT, originally in 10/18-10/31 group.

 

[Jimbo Asprilla]

about 20mins after midnight on preorder night.

 

[reeneebob]

Mine shipped early this morning, tracking number generated. Still says delivery October 5 but I imagine it will be a bit early.

What was your estimated delivery date?

 

[reeneebob]

What was your estimated delivery date?

My estimated delivery was October 5-13. I ordered 8 minutes into the presale.

 

[Indigovalley]

Mine finally shipped this morning. The email notice says Oct 3 delivery but UPS says delivery tomorrow! Is that realistic? My phone is currently in Hong Kong. I might have to take off work to get the phone so don't want to do that tomorrow if there is a high chance it won't be delivered that day. Are they being delivered that quickly after notification?
