Damn I know they say the Blacker the berry the sweeter the juice. But with iphones it's the Blacker the phone the more they need to produce.

Dammit. And good night.

Some of us will get them on Friday. Although, when I check my T-Mobile account a little while ago, my Jet Black Plus 128 order has disappeared from my account. Three other phones are there still. It not panicking. TMO's systems are archaic and barely function. I'm sure it will turn up at some point.
 
I am going to go out on a limb here and say I will get charged in the next 36 hours and definitley will have 7+ in hand by the end of day Saturday at the latest.
You say no I say yes yes yes.
Here's to being an optomist gotta go to work now peace.
UPS generally doesn't Deliver on Saturdays. Maybe tmobile will pay for Saturday delivery.
 
All orders that are processed current day by 2pm. Just because your status says being processed doesn't apply to this. Processing started for your order on Friday of last week. This is a launch of product and isn't your normal processing. Know that T-Mobile has people working non normal shifts to make this happen.
 
Man this ordeal is leaving a sour APPLE taste in my mouth. This is the first time I preordered an iPhone Plus I did so because I know how crazy it gets. With the first Plus model I didn't preorder and I remember running around for weeks looking for one, going to stores early in the morning only for them to say sorry we sold out. Getting pissed seeing Asians scoop up all the Plus models only to resell them. Side note I have nothing against Asians but this is just something that happened alot back then when Apple didn't do a massive release and left some countries out of the initial launch. I don't want to here well the phone is just that popular. Every year the regular six has plenty of inventory and the Plus always gets sold out. Why doesn't Apple make more Plus models. Then they say the regular models sale more, well if that's all you have in stores ofcourse it will. Alot of people would like a Plus but really don't care either way so if there's none in stock that's what they will go for. Apple needs to do better on this. They have months to prepare for a launch. If you sold 13 million last year's on launch how about you produce 15,16,17,20 Million this year. But nope the know us sheep will wait for the privilege of owning their device so they don't care. Sorry for the rant. Had to blow some steam guys.

If you look, apple has more planes landing Friday morning. So potentially some of us may get them monday. Apple just should have done this better. I feel like this is a bad launch. They look very unprepared for a company that's been doing this for so long.

Only reason I'm not nervous about not getting my phone is because there are still like 7 planes coming to Louisville tonight, and my wife's phone has a label created but has been sitting in Louisville for two days. I think we will still see progress for some of us. :)

Let me help you out on this. The final production version was not ready months ago. It was probably ready around the beginning of August. Then do you realize how long it takes to make 15 or 20 million iPhones? (Seriously, think about it.)

Every year I see ridiculous posts like this. Apple would love to deliver an additional 5 million iPhones on opening day, but production and supply chains are maxed out.

So have the final production version done earlier or push back launch day. It's not that hard lol
 
I'm in the same boat all we can do is hope it doesn't actually take 2 months. That's an insane amount of time.
I ordered the IPhone 7 128 Jet Black n Rose Gold estimated ship date Nov 1-Nov 30 . I got charged so does that mean I will get it sooner??
 
Trade in question:
When I ordered my phone the guy told me the "trade in system" was over whelmed and I would have to do the trade in post arrival of my phone. Anyone know how that should work?
 
My iPhone 7 (NON PLUS) Gold 32GB was the last one to ship out but it had an origin scan in Louisville KY this morning. The other 2 iPhone 7 (NON PLUS) Black 32GB are still at the "Ready for pickup" phase even though they shipped much earlier... odd

You will get your phone then send your old phone back in the mail. They will then credit you
 
I wasn't going to post anything, but I had a situation come up where for an unrelated reason my bank put a fraud alert on my card, so I called T-Mobile first thing this morning to get my card updated so there are no delays with shipment whenever that would be. (Slotted for the 9/26-10/10 7+ 128gb matte black).

She was having difficulty changing it so she put me on hold to talk to a supervisor, came back and said the charge already went through, and the order dropped to the warehouse for shipping to be received tomorrow. A tracker number will be sent out shortly.

I gave up the night before after getting weird error codes with fake order numbers, and called in the morning of 9/9, getting finally confirmation at 9:08PST. I imagine there should be good stock for anyone who ordered ahead of me.
