Carrier iPhone 7/7+ Verizon Pre-Order Thread

[lewis26]

I spoke to a very nice tier 3 support person from Verizon. She said that Apple is not allowing them to ship the 7+ black or jet black, until the 23rd. That Apple told them that and they aren't getting stock until that date. Apple seems to be constraining stock, Verizon seems to be just as frustrated about it as we are.

And she pulled that info right out of her ass...

Do you show a delivery date?
[doublepost=1474036591][/doublepost]
Yeah mine isn't working

No the UPS tracking # is not showing anything yet

 

[TristanPT]

Got my tracking number. It states the courier is "UPSGROUND2". Wonder what the "2" means? Can I pay extra to upgrade to a faster shipping speed? Still waiting on the number to go live with more info.

On truck for delivery at the Madison, WI Verizon store 128 Black 7

Middleton, Fitchburg or east side?

 

[SteveoGa]

I think they did somewhat well. They nailed Matte Black 128 as the most popular option which is why we see very few 32s shipping.

Respectfully disagree that they did "somewhat well." I ordered a 7 matte black 128 at 3:16 am (as soon as the system would let me) and have a 9/28 delivery date with zero movement--many who ordered after I did are receiving their phones today.

 

[robwithtoast]

I hope they ship mine at least by next week! 9/28 is my date.

 

[NotoriousBAZ]

Just curious, but has anyone had a 7 32GB in Silver ship to them yet? I feel like I haven't seen anyone post about it (granted it appears like that's the least popular model). Wondering if that's what's holding up my order as I ordered both that phone and a 7+ 128GB in MB together in the same order.

 

[Panic61]

Ok, finally Just checked and my Mat Black iPhone 7 Plus 256GB shipped (UPSGROUND).


Order Location: D772001
Ordered 9/9 at 3:18AM (EST)

Same location, but I ordered a JB, 256 7+, should have gone with silver I guess. Still says 9/28 for me

 

[desquiliano]

When did you get the shipping confirmation?

Thanks!

Monday 2:05pm

 

[chairman16]

I ordered mine on 9/9 at 1:30 am PST. JB 256 7 plus. Got email confirmation at 1:45 am with ship date of 9/28 but order page says ship by 10/5.

 

[jenjen80]

Man, I have to say, I feel for you all who woke up early and ordered the 7+ expecting it today and nada. It was announced less than 2 weeks ago so Apple had to know at that point there would be a shortage. Yeah, it's "just a phone," but presumably most everyone here is a tech geek and I don't think it's wrong to consider it a minor annoyance when you aren't getting your phone when you expected. Personally, I've already listed my 6S on ebay to recoup the payoff of my current device agreement, so if I weren't getting my phone today I'd have to cancel the auction and I'd be at least a little upset.

It's not true, my 256 black + already shipped and it has a delivery of the 20th.

I think it means 2 days shipping. I originally had UPSGROUND2 and just changed recently to UPSGROUND1 which im guessing is 1 day shipping

KANSAS CITY HERE...iPhone 7 Matte Black 256gb out for delivery. called fedex and they said it will be delivered to my house between 11am and 3pm. can't wait!

ordered last friday morning at 3:30am central time

 

[Shadowbech]

Middleton, Fitchburg or east side?

Or it Could be the premium retailer. I don't know if the corporate stores are allowing in-store pick up for any pre-orders.

 

[KawaiiKitsune13]

Ended up cancelling the 9/9 order for 7+ JB 128 (EDD 11/16) today and ordered the 7+ MB 256 (EDD 10/5) w/ Next Day 10:30am shipping. So now I sit back and wait. At least my custom cases from Skinit will be in today

She lied to you. Not trying to be a jerk or anything but my 7+ and a lot of others here are getting/have gotten their phones today.

Can't comment on that without knowing how many they delivered. 15 minutes could be 5 million phones.

Mine shipped on the 15th on that ground2 thing but still can't track it. Could you track yours?

 

[nyjets24]

Mine also shipped last night and got a tracking number today around 8 am. My cc was charged at 8 pm last night. When i checked this morning it was ground2 and just checked about an hour ago which then turned to ground1. Nope the tracking number isnt working

I haven't seen anyone speak of a 32gb plus at all.

 

[KirkyMD]

So in reading 9to5mac, I see that I chose an iPhone (+, 128 GB, Silver) that only eight percent of the general population wanted. I'm sure Apple augmented delivery based on previous sales which factored into a delayed delivery date. Oh well. I will wait.

 

[Sci_Tech]

I feel like this is a Verizon black iPhone thread. Did anyone else get a silver 7+?

Ordered

Ordered one, but won't be getting it for a couple of weeks (unless they push back that date, too).

Ordered one as well current ship date is 9/28 for 128GB

The demand of the silver in the 6(+) and 6s(+) would have been the reason they didn't make as many units. They also under sold and the introduction of two new colours would mean the unit yield rate for consumption would mean they produced significantly less than previous years

 

[chairman16]

Still stuck at processing and a 9/28 ship date. 256GB Jet Black 7+. Ordered at 3:10AM ET on 9/9.

Guess I have no choice but to wait for Verizon to deliver on this order which sucks because I won't be home on the 28th and will not be returning until 3 weeks after that. So my 7+ will just be chilling outside for 3 weeks I guess.

Anyway. I'm off to UPS to pick up my ATT 7+ that was shipped on time and arrived on time from Apple.

Same here. No movement.
