Does the assignment of phones occur once they scan in Alaska or once they are in Louisville? 2 7+ 128GB JetBlack ordered about 4:45am and both have 10/25-11/11 dates.

Hey everyone. Great news! I ordered a 7+ 128 black on release day around 11:30am pst. My orginal dates were 9/27-10/10. Just got a text a bit ago asking to call and finish my trade in for my iPhone 6. Did that and 20 min later I receive a text saying "Free T-Mobile Msg: Your T-Mobile order is confirmed and expected to ship between 09/15/2016 and 09/20/2016. We'll text you a tracking number once it ships." Hope this helps !!

Shipping dates moving back is always a good sign.

What did you have to do to "complete" the trade in. I did my pre-order in store and the trade in was supposedly done then. I just want to make sure I don't have to do anything else. My trade in shows up on my tmobile

Just checked my order and it's still 9/27-10/10.. don't know about the delivery on launch day
I would give it at least through the night. A lot of planes are not landing until early morning tomorrow.

Update:
I didn't note this in the timeline I provided in my initial post (quoted below), but I got a free T-Mobile text on Sunday at about 9:45 am saying that my order has processed and I got a UPS tracking number with it.

Then today at about noon, I got the exact same text again and for the same tracking number. I don't know why I got the same text with that tracking number again, but my guess is something must've happened to trigger the text.

While I'm not sure what it means, I figure that hopefully either someone might know or at least be interested in knowing how this whole deal is progressing for others.

Just joined because I stumbled upon this iPhone 7 preorder thread and I thought I'd add some info to provide more data points for people.

I woke up early to preorder last week. Had issues with the website for ~20 mins before I decided to just call support. Waited on hold for about ~30 mins and got through to a very energetic and helpful T-Mobile representative and ordered two phones to be paid via EIP:
  • A black iPhone 7 128 GB for me
  • A gold iPhone 7 128 GB for my wife
Phone orders were processed one at a time and EIP agreements were sent very shortly after the orders were placed, about 5-10 minutes. I signed the agreements immediately after I got the emails for them.

From there (all times are Central time)...
9/11 @ 8:45am - Received tracking number for black iPhone
9/11 @ 11:39pm - Payment processed email received from T-Mobile for black iPhone
9/12 @ 5:06am - Received tracking number for gold iPhone
9/12 @ 11:37pm - Payment processed email received from T-Mobile for Gold iPhone
9/12 - First payment posts (no longer pending) on credit card statement
9/13 - Second payment posts on credit card statement
9/14 - 7:08am - Both UPS tracking numbers just show "Order Processed: Ready for UPS" on UPS's website. First order's shipping label shows as being created on 9/10 and the second order's on 9/12.

I imagine I should see movement tomorrow! Though I certainly wouldn't complain if something happened today, haha.

I may have jumped the gun. I'm not sure what's going on ...it's actually a separate order from my iPhone 7+ order. I'm confused


Edit: I'm also not a Jump customer

How long in between being charged and seeing a tracking number of some sort (rather it be from UPS or T-Mobile) does it normally take.
