I was told multiple times there is no expedition or such thing as a priority list that multiple people claim to be on. I feel like sending some to Art himself since he is the one whom told me in writing no such thing existed.
Yep, Art told me himself there was no prioritization and they were absolutely going in first in first out order.

This thread speaks to the contrary...

Unfortunately, this isn't true. Apparently orders processed by the executive relations team or whatever they call them are placed in the front of the queue which is how the guy with the 128 7+ JB w/ November shipping date got his shipped before people that preordered the first 15 min of the window. Lots of people experienced lots of issues when trying to pre-order but apparently the majority of us didn't complain loud enough to get our orders pushed to the front of the queue.

Executive rep i have been working with says it is done by the initial order. No such thing as "prioritization" when it comes to orders.
 
Finally. UPS had a mechanical exception on my phone. So I just now got it at 7:30pm. Whew my nervases is shots! Thank heavens it's here! 128g JB+.

Again, this isn't true. I called TMO out on the obvious fact it's not by order, providing some order numbers listed here as evidence. The November shipping date that was posted was confirmed to be done by the executive team and moved to the front of the line.
 
Finally got charged at 5:45 central time.

7+ 128gb MB Ordered 09/09/16 at 11:40 PDT (I really ordered a minute after pre-orders opened up but my order never made it through the dang system!

I had the 9/27-10/10 shipping date! No tracking details yet though. I jumped up and started dancing when I saw the charge. Never been so happy for someone to take my money!!
 
128MB+ still no charge. Order 10am PST on 9/9.

Has anyone figured out if the signing of your EIP actually has any bearing on the shipping date? My EIP was sent the the wrong email so I didn't sign till 9/10 at like 10pm.

I wouldn't expect a charge for a while... 10 hrs after preorder opened is an eternity based on this years preorder.

Executive care says eip signing doesn't affect order. "Ships" by when your order was processed. Mine was processed at 12:00a 9/9 and I have no info besides the account number on my cc I used is incorrect

How'd you explain all the others charged already? I think there's one or two others on here who haven't gotten a charge yet, but there's definitely been a wave of charges for the 128MB+ today, many of which ordered after I did.
