This forum is addictive! I have my phone but can't stop reading this. For the ones with shipping labels are no scans yet, please try to be patient... I think that T-Mobile doesn't let the phones go until the charges are posted (strange to me, but was my experience)
Also, just hang in there. You've waited this long-- your new iPhone will be there before you know it!

No - though I'm not sure what that has to do with the reasonableness of the expectation that you get the item at or near launch when you order within hours of the window opening, and only that late because TMO's systems took a huge twosie that morning.
Overnight = Air. They both take 1 business day once the package is in UPS's hand. Saver is just a class of serivce within Air/Overnight - the slowest one.
I ordered on 9/9 during the first 10 minutes over the phone. The t-mobile system was so overwhelmed I don't think that processed my ordered till 9/10 bc that's when I got my agreement to sign, and because I was traveling w/ t-mobile I didn't have reception and get to sign the contract till 9/11. When I check t-mobile site it says the order was placed on 9/11. I ordered a 128 gb MB 7plus. I haven't been charged yet. I ask t-mobile and they tell me I maintain my original place in line 09/27/2016 - 10/10/2016... this is a lie right? I see ordered placed on 9/10 on here getting shipped already.
Refurbished ones aren't availabel this early in the product lifecycle, since, well there aren't many units that have been marked as defective, sent for repair, refurbed and back to sale OR enough time
Either ways actually, I am still fine. Apple refurbs are basically new. I don't mind that.
One of my iPhones, a 7 Silver 128 GB was supposed to be delivered by last Saturday. Still no charge on my credit card and zero changes in my T-Mo account, which has a downtime rate lately of greater than 70%.
Another day of no changes.
Another day of no changes.
So just an update. I'm still here! Lmao. Ordered 9/9 @ 10:15 am. 2 iPhone 7+ black 32gb .. still says processing and nothing on my UPS.
Ha! good point. I agree. I've had like 3 iPhones replaced by apple right before their 1yr warranty expired for minor issues (two had a software issue and another just wouldn't turn on) those 3 replacements worked without a problem until I traded/sold them.Refurbished ones aren't availabel this early in the product lifecycle, since, well there aren't many units that have been marked as defective, sent for repair, refurbed and back to sale OR enough time

OR tomorrow! Your within the shipping time frame for next day.
very true. but ill say wednesday just to stay sane LOL.
Sure that's reasonable to expect, but if your ESD hasn't been passed, or you have had your dates changed in your order status based on availability, then you really don't have a leg to stand on when it comes to being "upset". Get over it! It's like this every year, and the hardcore users (being an iPhone user since 2007), know that this is expected. It's like this with almost EVERY apple product launch (with the exception of some iPads).
This does seem to be more of a TMobile problem than an Apple problem though being that the other carriers have their devices for the most part already. I got my Matte Black 256gb *PLUS* from Verizon on the 16th, TMobile peeps didn't receive any yet from what I had seen
Wow. I got charged on Friday. Showed up as a temporary authorization to T-Mobile in the amount due on one phone. Never got any other updates. UPS label and tracking was never issued. Today I wake up and find that the charge never went through on the account. It has disappeared completely.
was your order prioritized? and if so when was did they prioritize your order? how long from prioritizing to you getting charged?
Happened to me as well...T-Mobile says its normal as they are just making sure the funds are in the account. They will charge when they actually ship the phone. I was worried as well! Good Luck!
Maybe T Mobile was just checking to see if the card is active for the futur when they will charge you?
I'm getting ready to pay the remaining balance for 6s+ and order a 256gb Rose Gold 7+ and last sell my 6+ on Swappa.
