Good luck!I just reserved a jet black 7 at an Apple Store a little over an hour away. Once I take my kiddo to school I'm heading over there! WISH ME LUCK! Lol
So there's a chance that the 128 MB 7+ will see some movement today. Fingers crossed on that because this wait is driving me nuts.
How do you know? Spill.
I can't keep waiting like this :'( it's gonna be a month waiting next week for me.
Someone speculating on Reddit. They said it's been a long time, and they're definitely right about that.
Here's the specific comment I was talking about. https://www.reddit.com/r/tmobile/comments/52e1is/comment/d8dmrye?st=ITVPWOHP&sh=02afafc2
Ordered same config on the 14th am 180 out of 450 in queue for iPhone 7 plus mb 32gb
Finally have my iphone 7+ RG 32gb. Now only 2 more iphones to go (ordered a total of 3 on my family plan). One more iphone 7+ S 32gb and iphone 7 RG 32gb....and the waiting continues....dum dum dummm haha.
I love his optimism, however it's just that. Hopefully he's right though
I have a similar order pending, and the CSR put all three phones on the same order, so I have to wait until all three are available before they ship:I have a feeling I will be waiting awhile...
My order:
9/9/16 at 7:30am EST
iPhone 7 JB 128
iPhone 7 RG 128
iPhone 7+ JB 128
iPhone 7+ JB 128
Original delivery estimate: 11/1-11/30
-no charge yet
-no order status change from "order processing"
9/9 with EIP agreement confirmation email received at 7:22am EDT and the order confirmation email received at 7:46am EDT
iPhone 7 JB 128
iPhone 7 RG 128
iPhone 7+ MB 128
Original delivery estimate: 9/27 - 10/24
- No charge yet
- No order status change from "Order in progress"
I also have three orders for what I was told were the return shipping materials for my trade-in devices. The original ship date for each was 9/15-9/20, but was revised to 9/29-10/4 sometime last week. I'm hoping that's an indication that the phones are expected to ship today, but I still haven't seen any regular 7 devices in RG or JB ship yet.
All we're really relying on at this point is optimism. I hope so too, since my window starts next Monday.
Well my two JB 256+s are out for delivery, so my time here is coming to an end for now. The iPhone 8 (or whatever they will call it) will be far worse than this. I feel bad for those of you who are still waiting - checking bank accounts, T-Mobile app, and UPS app constantly. But the phones will come. If I would not have been on JOD, I probably would have bought them from Apple.
That being said, I'm still sticking with T-Mobile. But I will not do some 12 AM PST preorder crap ever again. I've done three preorders three years in a row and they were all botched. I'm going to sleep in for the next launch, wake up at a normal time, call a normal T-Mobile customer service representative, live with their cheerful banter, and correctly order the devices. I will live with the delivery time. I'm not going to Twitter again to get help with my order, I'm not contacting the executive team to rearrange a delivery, and I'm not contacting Art Lucero. It shouldn't take that to order a phone!
I hope that T-Mobile will take some of the profits they make this year and upgrade their computer infrastructure and try some stress testing on it. I'm sick of a computer system that the CSRs have to make excuses for. Ok, enough of my rant. Good luck with getting your orders, and everyone take good care. Tom

Yay! Another RG plus has appeared! My hope is increased.

That's pretty damn good for having ordered on the 20th. Congrats!
LOL IT'S ME!!
Just being optimistic. Seems like charges come in waves of particular models, sometimes 2 models at a time. The Matte Black 128+ was the most popular model. I would assume Apple is cranking those out as fast as they can. We haven't seen charges on that model since this time last week. There's no pattern here or anything.
