You guys wanna see something really messed up? Look at this from their TForce. They must be more out of touch than the CSR's

Ordering a 7 Plus 128GB black (Tmobile) from Apple gets you the device between 10/1 and 10/7 so its highly unlikely that all 9/9 pre-orders for the larger device and capacities have automatically been delayed till November. If apple/tmobile were to do this, there are likely to be massive cancelations with folks moving on to perhaps the cheaper iPhone 7.

Other carriers have been shipping these colors and capacities and many folks have already received them so its also highly unlikely that Tmobile would somehow be the sole provider that has pretty much all of its pre-orders delayed by a couple of months.

I don't buy that for a second I bet these CSR's know as much as we do. If that was the case when I ordered my 7+ JB at 2:54 AM 9/8 I would see November as my estimated delivery and not 9/19-9/26.
 
I just spoke with a T-mobile rep (yeah I know), and he gave me a specific date of September 27. Before they were giving me 9/27-10/10. The order has processed. No UPS tracking number. No charge.

I wouldn't mind if they simply said "you'll receive it in the time frame listed on your order" but nope tells me Apple is basically Staggering the release of that to November. Complete idiots!

Easy to blame it on someone else; reality is irrelevant.

Don't listen to that at all. It's a coin toss. Reps interpret these things as their will. I have had SO many issues with ATT, T-Mobile. It's all the same everywhere.
 
I can neither confirm nor deny that I called Bryan Bowler.

Like he didn't approve this one?

My understanding is that right off the bat it is susceptible to abrasions and scuffing from light use. If the picture above was from daily use and not overly abused then who am I to say. We can all agree that how you treat the phone will dictate how it may appear over time. It just sounds like the JB will deteriorate faster under normal conditions as compared to other colors. Full disclosure I am waiting on the JB....along with everyone else it appears.

I know my ship date is 9/19-9/27. But I haven't been charged yet. I switched to Tmobile from Verizon about 2 months ago, and was forced into JUMP 2.0, when I wanted JOD, and by the time I realized they didn't do what I asked it was too late to change it.

AND on top of that, I called last Saturday to find out if the orders I placed were successful or waiting on anything, one of their overseas reps started arguing with me about the dates I was quoted, then I told him I would call back and talk to someone with less of an attitude. Didn't bother calling right away since I was working. And without my consent or knowledge he apparently got so mad, he flagged my phone as "Lost and Stolen" even though the phone was in my pocket. This my service was disconnected, causing me to miss the most important call in my life that my first born son was being born! So thanks to Tmobile i not only missed the entire birth of my first born, but now I don't have my 7 plus.
 
That is ALOT of planes inbound to KY.. between the 3 coming in from Alaska, and the 6 coming in from China to Alaska, that's roughly 1.8 million phones that will be routed for delivery on Monday.. the questions of course are:

1)How many are T-Mobile phones?
2)How many are Plus devices?
3)How many are Matte Black/Jet Black

My case won't get here until wed or thurs so I'm not in that much of a rush.

It does indeed show up as this week for my preorder. Skeptical but definitely looks a lot better than 11/1-11/30. Surprised with all the issues with the black iPhones I got such an early shipping date ordering today.

I agree with you. Sorry, I didn't mean to pick on you. But it also reminds me of my iPhone 5; remember the space gray model? #Scratchgate. I got mine replaced second day only to find out that the replacement one had hair thin scratches too. Just saying that we sometimes overly doubt Apple post Steve Jobs and I do that. Don't want to single out you or anyone.

Are you serious? T-mobile did the same thing to me in April when I switched. Told me they were putting me on JOD and I found out just this month that they didn't put me on JOD and put me on Jump 2.0 without my permission. I ended up getting a $120 credit from T-Force and a call from John Legere's office, as well as an offer to be placed on JOD once I pay off my EIP, but I didn't have $400-$500 to do that. Definitely call and complain about what happened to you. They need to hear about these shady reps. They get punished for putting people on JOD but get commission on Jump activations.

I almost went back to Verizon over it. Since they've been so good about taking care of me since I'm sticking with it for now.

Every question down the odds go down less and less. lol.

No worries I didn't see it as anything. I'm just passing time until I get some sort of news on my order or someone does with similar model.

We just ordered a Matte Black iP7 128GB (not a plus) for a new line we just opened today and the ship date is already 9/19-9/26... Damn okay... But my 3 7+'s (all ordered 9/9 by 5am EST) are all estimated for 9/27-10/10 -_- These next planes better have a LOT of the pluses in MB and 32/128GB form.

Yep, the regular 7 Matte Black's are plentiful in stock (not the 32gb though).
