If I buy the Verizon one outright I can use with T-Mobile no problem?? One of the store near me have it just reserve to pic up just incase
 
Ok, cool. Just wanted to rule out the fact that the EIP signing could be holding up my order. Seeing that these reps and T-Mobile's whole system in general seems somehow confused.

I placed my order on my phone from T-Mobile's website and everything seems to have gone through fine. 7+ 128GB Black. Still playing the waiting game....no charge, no nothing.

If you log into your account and can see the order, you should be okay.

I don't think shipping estimates are accurate. Shipping estimates are based on waves of shipments that they get in. The first wave passed. These 10 planes could be the second shipment which includes some 9/19 and 9/27 ranges.
Good point. She made it sound like mine was coming from the original shipment. So, maybe that only applies to those of us in the 9/19-26 camp then...
 
Does your order still say processing?

No. I got two emails from TMobile USA yesterday.

The first said the order was now on its way and gave me the tracking number for the first time along with stating it was through UPS Overnight Air Service.

A couple of hours later, I received another email stating that they had received my payment in full.

On the UPS website, it now shows as 'In Transit - On Time' for delivery tomorrow, 09/19. Currently in Louisville, KY.
 
I have two phones rg 128 7plus and one in black. Rg ready to ship but black holding it up. Never call reps but figured why not. Told me black 128 7 plus backordered. Grrrreeeeeaaat ordered on 9/9 255 eastern
Starting to become very impatient have not seen any progress

Then why would T-Mobile send me an email that said it was successful? And include a copy of the signed EIP?

Initially, it goes through. During authentication, the system recognizes it is not valid. That's why it was cancelled.

Actually, on T-mobile's website they say you can use your mobile device. All of the reps I've talked say you can't? Damn, this is a bit messed up. If you escalate this, for reference, copy T-mobile's website:

It's different from what you can see in the app. We have confirmed that people were able to reserve AT&T/Verizon without proof of account and then bought them outright for use on T-Mobile. Only useful if you were going the full price route, but figured I'd share.

I almost want to buy but the 128 and 256 (for 7+) are not available. Which is a given. Though there's 32 gb a plenty for the 7 plus

Verizon ones are unlocked and also have the gsm radios on it. So u should't have any issue using it on Tmo. But I am not sure they will just let you walk with it if you don't have an account with them.
 
I just opened my
Moms 7 black and I ordered the 7 plus black. But once
Mine comes and stock of the 7 plus comes I might switch to jet black

Yes you can. To whoever said no, they're not phone savvy. It says on apples website that Verizon is compatible.

Yes you can use it on T-Mobile. Verizon iPhones are unlocked and the only difference between AT&T/T-Mobile vs Sprint/Verizon is the CDMA Qualcomm chip in the Sprint/Verizon devices.
 
I just got a cc charge for the taxes on one of the phones on my account. This one is matte black 7, 32gb. Order around 7:45pm on 9/11 with an estimated delivery of 9/27 - 10/10.

No change on other models which are all pluses. 2x 32gb black and my 128gb jet black.

I dont understand how People that ordered same model as me and earlier are getting back ordered but mine isn't ? ive spoken to reps and from what they're saying is that there's no chance of mine being back ordered.

I wouldn't worry about it. Sounds like you're ahead of them.
