So regular JUMP customer tried ordering at 3:01AM on release date with ZERO luck thanks to their amazing systems when it comes to JUMP and JOD, ended up finally ordering a matte black 7+ 128g at around 7:45AM got my emails and text messages immediately after and received an estimated ship date of 9/27-10/10...got a call today from the executive office spoke to nice woman who informed me that my phone is ready to "drop" which according to her means that it is in the warehouse and ready to ship and that I should see some movement on my status tomorrow. Not sure how true this is but maybe it means that everyone else who's waiting on 7+ blacks will get some info tomorrow too.
WOW your description as mine to the time...item...and trouble....you just gave me a lot of hope ! lol

Can you please elaborate on what is executive office and why would they call you to update on status. Did your online status update from "Being Processed"
 
Does anyone know what day of the week t-mobile stores typically get deliveries? I am wondering if there is a chance of strolling into a store over the corse of the next week and getting one. I am hoping there is an employee on here who might shed some light. I have to imagine they are going to have some in stores as quickly as possible, its a sure sale for them...
Usually Mondays and Thursdays.....Some even Weds

If I am not mistaking, they get inventory in every day. I remember for my iPhone 6 I called 5 stores a day until someone had what I wanted.

I was told the 128GB MB plus on launch day. But obviously not. My estimate is 9/27 - 10/10 but I'm really banking on those 10 planes having our phones hopefully. There were like 2 million iPhones flown in today
LOL I don't need 2 million iphones, I just need 1.
Yeah, really hoping all of us who need to keep are entitlement feelings in place get our phones soon, I hate people seeing me with my iphone 5 :)

Close to me too. 7+ MB 128. I had the order in by 12:16 AM (via phone) but didn't get my emails until 4:20. 4:20 was the time stamp on the order. I've spoken to them about that bit and they gave me a $50.00 bill credit. Hope we get good news in the AM!!
 
You guys need to stop complaining about waiting for your iPhones.


Because apparently it is a privilege bestowed upon you by the iPhone Gods to wait for a phone that you may have dropped up to $300 dollars on to come in to your existence in one month, two months, or maybe even three months. You should all be honored.

Glad I could help although I would take the info she gave me with a grain of salt...she claimed to have another system that only they could check which let her know it was in their warehouse already but Im honestly not sure how much of it was to keep me calm and how much was true. I'll post more info tomorrow if I do get any movement.

How is everyone talking to these execs? Who are they? And why do they know? Any way for us to check ours with them? I'm hoping mine is ready 7 plus MB 128GB ordered 9/9 morning and EDT 9/27-10/10
 
Why do you even bother, some people will support Apple no matter how wrong they are.

iPhone loses reception= your holding it wrong

iPhone bends= who sits on their phone

iPhone manufacturers in deplorable conditions where many workers commit suicide= well as long as the price doesn't go up

iPhone screen has dust under it= what do you expect when they make so many

iPhone screen has yellowish tint= well that's why I wait to buy mine

iPhone Plus goes on sales with little to no inventory= it's just so darn popular

Lmao:D
Pretty much bro.
No matter what they do or as much as they mess up it is perfect for some I guess.
These botched iPhone releases are far from perfect and there's lots of room for improvement.
Some try to say that it's not possible for them to have enough supply to meet demand or at least have phones to sell on your release date instead of sending everyone home after they waited for a long time.
That's not normal to me no matter what excuses some will try to make for them and make it sound like that's the only way this crazy process can go down every year.
 
Lol:) just right across the Black Sea huh? Sure just take an evening swim. Not good at geography much? Huh
How about trying a bordering country such as poland, Slovakia, Hungary, Moldova or Russia? A European Union country will have more western products available and would be easier for a Ukranian citizen to travel to and from;)
[doublepost=1474246273][/doublepost]

Gets what?
That year after year it's the same botched iPhone release nonsense?
And that it cannot improve?

So you're saying there aren't ferries or anything that go across the Black Sea? Good luck getting a western product in some place like Moldova, lol.
 
Wow i wish they would give me a store credit !


I put in enough time inquiring I guess. My order was placed hours before the time stamp and I was assuming that's why I got pushed to team 9/27-10/10. Proud to be a part of such a team though. Trapped in the land of confusion.

I tweeted the tmo guys letting them know of my frustrations this being the 3rd year in a row where being a jump customer has prevented me from ordering at launch. One of them got back to me asked me for my phone and account number and I received a voice me from a woman in the "office of the president of tmobile" I believe her voicemail said. We played phone tag for a bit and finally connected a couple of hours ago today and that's when she told me my status. As for my "order being processed" status, no that hasn't changed but she said that's normal and it shows up different in their system. Again, not sure how much was to appease me and how much was factual.

I float from Android to Apple often and love to excitement of my Apple Folk, man there are so many threads that pop up regarding iPhones. On the Android side there's still excitement just a little more subdued. But what I will say for the most part when Android Manufacturers mess up we give them hell. Lol. I guess the difference is there is more of them so if one messed up you can just move along.

I guess it's like if you have a lot of stock in Kmart your going to say that they are just as good as Target knowing darn well there one bad black Friday away from closing. Lol.

In case you all talked to a rep and told you that your phone is "Partially backordered" that's the definition supposedly

Why would I take a ferry or request a visa to enter a non European Union country when I can drive across the border to multiple UN member nations and buy one there using euros? Lol:)

But what if I'm taking a low-light photo and accidentally fall into a pool? I need the 7 RIGHT now in case this situation happens in the next week or two.
