So just an update check? Anyone with iPhone 7 plus orders showing anything other than 'processing'?

Will anyone get their iphone 7+ 128gb Jet black this fridaye? Has anyone read other forums o rknows? because if no one has received the tracking for it then that means our ship dates are place holders.

I'm highly doubting it because my status still shows "order processing" I'm about to call my local T-mobile store and see if they will have any extra units. November is such a long wait -_-

guys see my response above. The initial delivery dates were based off of what inventory was actually on hand as of last Wednesday. Shipping dates should update thru tomorrow and Thursday too

A tmobile rep that i just spoke too, that actually had a clue, said as of what has been told to him by his management is that no 7+ order had a ship date earlier than 9/19 because Apple didnt allocate any up front to any carrier, based on what their inventory was as of last Wednesday. Everything you see now, ship dates are based off of what the actual on hand inventory was as of last Wednesday. Between today and tomorrow, you will see updated shipping times. the 9/19 groups will get theirs on Friday. Even the 9/26 group should be pulled into the first week.

That sounds a little more promising based on what we've heard about the inventory management of this so far.

Rep on Twitter said that link that lists all the current ship dates for those trying to order now, updates every 30 minutes for what that's worth.

Safe to say we don't need anymore 7's posting they shipped, right? ;-)

And, safe to say the first person that says their 7+ shipped will be called a liar and pics or it didn't happen....

.....or followed by hundreds of us announcing the same

Though things are looking sad for us 7+ orderers, there are 7 flights from Anchorage to Louisville just today. There is a good chance our phones are on there or even tomorrow will probably have a similar lineup. There are a lot of phones being shipped around, and I don't think we should worry unless we don't get info by Thursday. I'm anxious too though, I'd love to start tracking as of yesterday. ;)

So I just got off the phone with a really nice employee from my T-Mobile store. At this time she said they wouldn't have an idea as to which models they would get in store, but said to try calling again on Thursday.

On another note she said they will be opening at 8am on Friday at that location instead of normal hours.

Well I have somebody at Tmo that's going to let me know if they have any of the iP7Plus in stock so I will keep you guys posted also. It's looking like I'm just going to the store and picking one up
I do too. I worked at T-Mobile but just moved onto a new job. Old co worker of mine is gonna let me know Thursday what they get in stock. Keep you all posted

And i was told similar info from someone that I know that is in supply chain management with VZW. I work closely with VZW as I am a vendor of theirs.

Shipments get updated in batches, not one for one. So let's say TMO is expecting 400k Iphone 7+. They break those down into batches, likely by region and then actual order numbers according to when ordered on who gets what first.

Initial supply of the iphone 7 and limited 7+ were actually in the US before preorders. They've likely been shipping 500K units per day. That gives them close to 9 million for launch, if not more.

I'm hoping I'll be lucky and get one in store on Friday.

My brother and I ordered ours through the store to have shipped out, but it's gonna be awhile.

His was the iPhone 7 128GB Jet Black model and mine is the iPhone 7 Plus 128GB in Jet Black. It would be nice if we could both get ours on the same day.

I just read about that as I was downloading it. I stopped the download. Forget that crap. Sorry that happened to you.
