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

Agreed, definitely should be on first-come, first-served basis.
Not sure if it matters but It was an upgrade over phone. Also haven't been with t mobile that long only 2 yrs. not sure what the rhyme or reason is for the out of order charges. I'm just happy I got charged finally
Totally agree. Been waiting FOREVER for my RG+! I'll see people with Nov ship dates or previous-day orders get their phones shipped out, but not a single RG+....unless it's to fulfill a MB or JB order. Insanity.
Grats!
I am admittedly confused though. Were those who took advantage of that trade-in deal put into a separate batch of shipments? I ordered 9/11, did the trade-in deal online, and my iPhone 7+ 128GB MB was given an estimate of 11/1-11/30.
Congrats!!!!!!!!!!It's been real

A really good theory! Wish it happened that way but oh well our time will come
T-Mobile 's official response is that it goes strictly by order date/time and that the people who have orders that 'skip', must be lying....lol. Not that it is anyone's fault if they get their order before another's. People are complaining all over social media about this exact thing.
Well if anyone is interested:
Ordered 9/16 at T-mobile store around 5:30pm ish.

Guys I spoke to the T-Mobile rep and her answer literally popped the bubble from my iPhone dream. She said it's a pending charge and not an actual charge 
only when it gets shipped it's actual charge. She is giving estimated shipping to be November 28 to December 13th
I think I am going to ignore what she said and wait.
Anyone got any ideas what pending charge and actual charge means in the context of iPhone preorders through T-Mobile?

I have no movement on my order and I ordered on the 14th, same phone. This is ridiculous.
What do you mean by you can't tell the difference? You mean you can't tell the difference even in the case if it's not just a matte black version?
congrats!! share pictures when it arrives!!After being delayed by hurricane Matthew, my phone is finally coming today!!!!

what was your order #
I have no movement on my order and I ordered on the 9th, same phone. THIS is ridiculous.
Well charges usually happen until 5-6 PM. Keep your fingers crossed people. We still got time!! As for plane updates, 6 planes heading to Louisville over night. And 1 from china to Alaska coming in 2 hours. (Maybe some charges there) And 1 plane from china overnight as well. Regular wave. Not the large wave like it had happened before but at this rate I still firmly believe all pre orders to be filled by the end of the week. Keep the faith people! As for the people that have gotten charged today, give as much info as you can on your order so we can know when in line the people are. It'll really help. As for delivery's coming in today, show us some picture and enjoy your iPhone's!! We'll see you guys next September!

[doublepost=1476132624][/doublepost]A plane from China just arrived 7 minutes ago. Expect charges coming in the next 20 minutes.
[doublepost=1476133134][/doublepost]Just looked at Verizon's thread and they say that their orders have been getting bumped up by 2 weeks +. They say they barely have any pre orders left. Really sucks that Apple doesn't give much iPhones to tmobile

Smallest sizes are always the hardest to get. But I really think you'll be getting yours this week, I mean you did order on first day. Keep the faith!!I have no movement on my order and I ordered on the 9th, same phone. THIS is ridiculous.

you should know better than that son.. reps over the phone will quote the tmobile site shipping dates.. if they were pending charges everyone that preordered a phone would be charged already. these are actual charges, even though the cc companies label them as "pending" because they are not actual transactions until your current bill cycle closes.
the only time they will charge you for an iPhone is when a phone has been assigned to your account. read a couple of pages worth of posts and you'll notice the pattern..
I have the same order number as you.
[doublepost=1476133475][/doublepost]Guys fill out your order info and tell us what your status is. This'll help for people trying to find out if their phone is coming.

I ordered same thing on 9/11 and I think there are launch day orders that are still waiting. Shouldn't be too surprised by lack of updates yet
just called local store and they have one in stock.I ordered same thing on 9/11 and I think there are launch day orders that are still waiting. Shouldn't be too surprised by lack of updates yet
