Ordered my iPhone 7 Plus 128GB Silver on 9/9/16 at 3:00AM PST after countless attempts of trying the website and phone. Got a call back and my eip was here by 7:00AM PST

Originally I was quoted between 09/27/2016 and 10/24/2016.

My card was charged on 9/14/16.
As of today I now have tracking information which I retrieved via UPS MyChoice iPhone app. Looks like it'll be here on the 16th!? Woo!


My date was originally November lol and I'm on the same boat. Just waiting for the package to start moving.
 
Is there a way to change my My UPS address? I set it for my home address but my phone is shipping to my school.
 
I have a ship date of 9/15-9/16 for a matte black 32gb. T-Mobile still has me in processing stage, without a UPS label appearing on my UPS acct or T-Mobile acct. I placed my order 3 a.m. on 9/9 but due to a payment mishap, my order was bumped out of the queue until I fixed the issue on 9/12. You can imagine how foolish I feel.

I see that a bunch of planes are headed from AK to Louisville tonight. Are labels created in Louisville? Im getting worried about not seeing any updates. I'm hoping my phone is on one of these and that it'll possibly get to JFK early tomorrow morning. Is it possible wheels are turning but I am not being notified?

Someone else on my acct pre-ordered in store on 9/9 and their 32gb matte is happily waiting in JFK for them. Lucky lucky them.

So I'm in the JB 7+ Club.. the planes heading for KY are REALLY close together, and the majority are arriving before 2am EST.. I have seen with my own eyes (not an iPhone order) something arrive at 2am in KY and get delivered to my house in Miami on the same day. Not saying it WILL happen, just that it CAN happen. Those 7-8 planes are carrying about 1.5 Million iPhones...
i agree that they can move packages very quickly, but in this case I doubt if your phone isn't already on the ground there already that you'd get it tomorrow. Only because T-Mobiles stock has to. E transported to their own facility, inventoried, packed, then shipped back to UPS.
 
I believe it will move tonight!
I hope so!

This is my status right now.

I think you may be right since my Note 7 pre-order did this overnight.

Huh, I expected that they'd arrive packaged for shipment and be inventoried and processed at the hub itself since tmo is a big shipper.

I just have one question....

Is your cat licking your head in your avatar?

And I could be wrong, but from past experience and people who said they know.... Tmo has their main sort facility, very close to the main UPS hub in KY. From my understanding...that all happens essentially at the same place. Shipping to UPS is essentially driving across the parking lot, right by the airport in Louisville.

And please correct me if I'm wrong, but I've heard several times, that carrier specific devices, are packed with all the carrier specific paperwork and software etc, at Foxconn. Those boxes aren't torn into by Tmo in the states.

There was a discussion earlier about why anyone would want the Plus or not want it.. personally, I have the 6S Plus, and 6 Plus, and it's honestly too much phone for me. I'm ready for something a little smaller and easier to hold. I don't take pictures much so I'm fine with the 7.

That said, I wish I hadn't got Jet Black. No charge on card no shipping info yet and still seeing November date.

EDIT: post number freaking me out. Inb4 satan

LMAO yes...my cat is a fat freak haha

I'd think T-Mobile facility is close, but it's still an added step. And I recall I think someone posted here awhile back that their two phones were shipped in one box, leading me to believe the package their phones after they arrive in the US. Regardless, unless the phone was purchased from Apple, the added steps take too much time to catch a connecting flight that late at night.

But believe me, I hope like hell they can pull it off, because I'm waiting too. I ordered on 9/9 @1210 pst and got a stupid 9/27-10/10 est for MB + 32gb

Checked ups my choice reference tracking, nothing found for me. Though card was charged yesterday early morn. I wonder if it's possible my 7plus gold 128gb will still be delivered tomorrow w/o tmobile updating the status/tracking info.
 
anyone notice that now on tmobile.com, it says the trade in credit is only if you switch to Tmobile One plan. Did they just change the promo???
