I'm thinking that for the anniversary iPhone next year we are going to have to beg them to take our money.
Next year I'll order through apple. That's how bad this experience w/ tmo has been.
I'm surprised a person is surprised ppl picked Jet black.....unless he/she is a 15 year old girl.
Yep, I'll pay full price and enjoy my shiny iPhone on launch.
Well I ordered at 3am, but placed my partner's matte black 128g plus first and mine second. So probably around 3:05 am for me EST. Thankfully for him I didn't make it one order or he wouldn't have his now. And as to whether they are actually adhering to time of orders I don't know. I've seen a lot of evidence to the contrary.
add me in that group. i'm like so desperate to get a charge on my credit card already lol. my partner and I are getting antsy lol
And this is why tmobile has to do some damage control pronto.
Rose Gold is so 2015, Gold is 2014, Silver/White is 2013, Matte Black is 2012. Jet Black is the 2016 color!
Unfortunately, none of us who ordered it from T-Mobile will see it until 2017!
for all my jb 7 plus waiters..

Jon from techno Buffalo said it's not as easy as it used to be. He says it has to be activated on Sprint first, then unlocked, then you can pop your T-Mobile sim in.
But you'd have to pay off your JOD phone as well. Right? Or am I mistaken? I think it's an 18 month program before the phone is paid off and even then there is a residual you still have to pay if you want to own the phone.
After tons of back and forth with exec response team it seems their only damage control is more vague estimations of shipment dates and statement credits.
It doesn't make me want to switch, it just tells me I have to order thru apple if I want my phone as early as possible.
Wow, we have almost identical situations. My order was around the same time. I got disconnected when I was trying to place the order for my wife's. I ended up ordering hers about 8 hours later- MB+ 128 as well. Hers is out for delivery now
Got confirmation email at 11:37pm central time on 9/10 estimated shipping 10/11-10/24
Honestly the jet black looks so good, they just should have put a coating on it so it doesn't scratch so easily. I'm just reminded of my black 3GS that had a billion micro abrasions making the whole back look cheap. They should have done something about that and they would have had me. I played it safe and went with the black (which is wayyyyyy nicer than space gray)Rose Gold is so 2015, Gold is 2014, Silver/White is 2013, Matte Black is 2012. Jet Black is the 2016 color!

I'm in the same boat. I know my order date was later but I'm checking UPS MyChoice every other hour or so for updates
The other fastest way that I can think of is the label creation at UPS. So definitely keep an eye out in UPS MyChoice because it should show up there VERY shortly after the charge. Since you don't see/get the charge, you'll at least see the label creating shortly after that (I think one hour later so it's not too bad). Good luck!
I'm probably going to get one of these for mine http://www.bestskinsever.com/iphone-7-plus-skins
I put one of these on a 6th gen iPod from 2005 and it still looks flawless
