Thats wierd. T-Mobile sucks. I ordered iPhone 7 (Regular) on 9/9 12.19PM ET (EIP signed same time) still did not get charged or any shipment confirmation.

What was your est ship date?

BTW: I ordered 6 iPhone 7's regular - Here is the timeline.

3 - i7's regular RG - Ordered on 9/9 around 7AM and received on launch day...
1 - i7's regular Black - Ordered on 9/9 around 7AM and received on launch day...
1 - i7's regular JET Black - Ordered on 9/9 at 6AM and got charged yest with scheduled delivery today
1 - i7's regular JET Black - Ordered on 9/9 at 12.19PM - Still waiting for charge and not even thinking about any delivery yet...

I have been on this thread since page 1...finally felt like I should sign up after all the frustration with waiting....

Update: Just woke up and checked UPS My Choice and the phone is on its way! So excited. Time to go case shopping.

P.S. Oddly enough, they're shipping it over UPS 3 Day Select? Lol. Okay then.
That is strange. I thought that they were just sending the ones to hurricane areas by the 3-day select, since it is on trucks and won't have issues with closed airports. Either way, WE ARE GETTING OUR IPHONES!

If I'm not mistaken those that ordered during the preorder got free overnight and those who ordered afterwards don't have free overnight. I ordered after the preorder timeframe so I had to pay for 3 day shipping which I don't mind.

Wait, just so I'm sure, how do we activate the phone once we get it? Two years ago when I got my 6, everything was done in store so I didn't have to worry about anything.

I guess it's because (like someone mentioned before) people who pre-ordered before the 16th got Next Day Air for free, and people who ordered after got 3 Day Select.

The label was created this morning so I don't have an estimated delivery day yet.

They waved my fee for it because next day air is $25 but I ordered On the 15th and had to cancel due to a mistake being made. But the ordering after the 16th sounds about right. They need consistency

Just swap the SIMs... the new phone comes with one. Then just call 611 so they can switch the SIM on their end.

Oh and you get to keep the new SIM, so don't send it back with the old phone

Exclusive: T-Mobile no longer offering JUMP! On Demand for new customers

"T-Mobile hasn't made any announcements, but if you go to a T-Mobile store to try to sign up for its JUMP! On Demand option for more phone upgrades, you won't be able to. And, to make matters worse, not even T-Mobile representatives have are fully up to date on the change.
I learned this because I went to a T-Mobile store to sign up for JUMP! On Demand and although I am a T-Mobile customer, I wasn't allowed to get on the plan. The representative at the store said that T-Mobile was no longer offering JUMP! On Demand for new lines, meaning the only option left to me would be the older JUMP! plan, which limits you to phone upgrades after paying off half of the price of your phone.


I thought it was a mistake at the store, so I called up T-Mobile support to confirm this and at first the phone rep wasn't even aware that T-Mobile was phasing out the On Demand plan and began to give me prices for phone upgrades. But, after explaining the prices for new devices with the On Demand option, he suddenly went on hold for a moment and came back saying that T-Mobile was indeed phasing out On Demand and I would not be able to get on the plan.
The representative didn't even know when the plan had been phased out and his best guess was on October 1st because he said he was still adding customers to the JUMP! On Demand plan in September. Those already signed up for the On Demand upgrade plan will be grandfathered in and allowed to continue on with the upgrades, but for the rest of T-Mobile customers, the best you can do is the old JUMP! plan."

If you go deeper into the app and/or go to T-Mo online, it will probably show est delivery of 10-10 like mine does.

Yay! Finally going to get it today after an almost month long wait since ordering. As you can see, my JB moved quickly from being charged to delivery in only one day. I've already packed up my 5c trade-in and will drop it off at the post office today.

My order (see my signature below) includes a 7 JB 128GB. My order was placed 3 hours after yours, so I'm hoping I get charged within the next couple days! I think this is the phone holding up my whole order.
