Of the 4 phones ordered on my account, the matte black 7 was the first to arrive - today. I was billed for the taxes around 11:00am on the 18th. The phone arrived this afternoon. It was ordered on the 11th around 7:30pm
The 3 other phones are 2x32GB matte black+, and my 128GB jet black. Nothing on these last three yet.
You did good dude. Don't stop now!Guess this is what I get for trolling.
128gb 7+ Black 9/9 9am PST no update
Cause it was a preorder. 01:45 AM central is like 11:45 PM PST which t mobile uses. I was able to get the trade in promo with simple choice plan and over night shipping. And also I have a 7 Plus Matt black 128 that I ordered 15 mins after the start of the preorder and that order got charged today. Just wanna share my experience and see if it's helpful.
I don't think a 32gb rose gold would be considered as a metric to go by as far as time of charge, ship, receive...at least for us awaiting a black variant.
Maybe not the part where I got charged 3 hours after ordering but I would think that once CC got charged, the timeline should be identical. Since I assume they'd only charge with those phones in hand. Once they charged CC, rest of process should just be create label, pack, wait for UPS, UPS transit then UPs deliver. The timeline for those processes should be independent to the spec of the device.
Added my response. Can you link to the responses spreadsheet? Doesn't need to be editable I can export a copy.
You would think so, but it looks like they might have done it to retain the orders.
Ok, so the 2 shipment tracking number I got, they are the same, I guess they going to ship them all together :|
I'm seriously just sick of being left in the dark about all this. Last time I ever order through T-Mobile. I'm always the last, so matter how early I do something. My 128GB should have been charged today with all the other blacks too. Just annoying.
When the next time some planes coming in? Maybe we'll get some charges overnight?
Wooo

I totally agreed. The worst part about this whole mess is not about the wait. I mean if they had communicated it well to us, I can't speak for others, but I'd be more chill and patient. Or maybe I'd just went with apple instead. The most irritating part about this is that so many things were incorrectly promised and information got misinterpreted. It just felt like waiting for a surprise, but in a bad way because of all the anticipations.

They better not...I was about to cancel and just place a rose gold 128 plus order with apple this afternoon after work. I would be more than upset if they charged me with no intention to ship my device within a reasonable amount of time,,,,
Planes go from Shenzhen to Anchorage for Customs, then Anchorage to Louisville for sorting and distribution. Shenzhen planes leave in the mornings, and Anchorage planes typically leave in the afternoons. My guess, again, is that the customs scan triggers your card being charged, and shipping info appears once the phone is at the distribution center in Louisville.
