Carrier iPhone 7/7+ T-Mobile Pre-Order Thread

is the hissing sound a deal breaker? i think it's tolerable. why is everybody making a big deal out of it though? are all the iPhone 7 affected?
 
I don't mean to burst anyone's bubble, but this has been the process for the last two weeks. Sure, there have been a few charges that happen late. But, the MAJORITY of the charges occur in the afternoon and origin scans happen late at night because of this schedule.

No..Origin scans occur when the planes land in Kentucky. Charges occur when the planes land in Alaska.

This is why every day charges occur from 2pm est to 6pm est. Because planes leave Asia in the mornings and arrive in Alaska at this time. Then those planes leave Alaska after charges occur and land in Kentucky where origin scans occur. The planes are just now landing in Kentucky, which is why you got your origin scan.

If that were the case, then I would have had an origin scan on Sunday... when I was charged, or at the very latest Monday.

As I said, I am speaking for the majority of the cases. There were no planes that landed in Kentucky today between 2-6pm, yet there was an influx of charges. Now, planes are landing in Kentucky and there are going to be an influx of origin scans. I do not think cards get charged when planes land in Kentucky.

Does anyone know if changing delivery instructions (for example saying to leave it at a management office) affects delivery dates?

Edit: Submitted my request, it did not affect delivery date.

No delivery instructions shouldn't change time. Also.. FINALLY! :)

Same here. 256+ MB. Ordered at 3pm EST on 9/9. Given 9/19-9/26 shipping window. Charged on friday 9/23, received shipping notification on Sunday 9/25, tracking began in UPS on Monday afternoon for overnight delivery, and since I wasn't going to be home during the day on Tuesday, I set it UPS choice on Monday night for pickup from UPS facility today (Tuesday).

Good luck to everyone still waiting! Hopefully soon for you too!
