I'm signed up but since there is no delivery date I can't seem to do anything with it. It's at my local hub which would mean Monday so I'm going to try the Note on door thing that someone told me works for them.
Hey! When did your phone get shipped? I'm trying to figure out if I'll get mine today or Monday since I have no delivery date yet either. Mine left Memphis last night at 7pm and it's supposed to head to Charlotte, NC.

Still waiting... so tell us your first impression

love the home button... it's a lot more responsive and easier to touch. stereo speakers are definitely louder, i guess the phone itself is a bit faster... camera is definitely nicer even on the 7, and coming from a 16GB 6s, 32GB is very nice. overall it's not a huge step up but definitely one that's worth it for those who will notice these differences

Anyone else get their phone but still can't make calls/text? I got both of ours yesterday and they are all setup (after a LOOOOONNNNNNNNG download of iTunes) but I can't call out or text so I'm guessing they are not fully activated. Suggestions? Tried restarts, sim removal, etc. any ideas other than calling Verizon?

did you go on MyVerizon and choose switch devices and active your 7 for whatever phone you previously had on your line?

Same thing happened to me. I have Verizon. I had to manually call Verizon and have them add to my line. They said because I turned new phone on and old phone was on also stopped the activation process. Make sure old phone is off and when you turn on new phone should automatically activate, according to VW.
[doublepost=1474119396][/doublepost]Ordered 7 plus, apple black, 32 gb, @ 0323 est, 9-9-16 Had 9-28-16 expected ship date. Received alert from my cc that charge was pending from VW. Received email this am, 17 Sep @ 0702 with ship date, 17 Sep and arrive 20 Sep.

Just thought I'd update folks where I'm at, particularly for those who also ordered a 128GB 7 Plus in Jet Black. I ordered mine as soon as Verizon's site would let me in (confirmation email received at 3:20am EST), and I've seen no movement nor a charge to my card. However, the "Deliver By Date" in both the confirmation email as well as when checking "My Orders" via the "My Verizon" website was 10/5, even though the "estimated ship date" found via clicking "check your order status" within the confirmation email itself had an "estimated ship date" of 9/23. Well now the dates both places say 9/23, so I take that a small step in the right direction.

So hopefully it'll ship by (or even before) 9/23.

Nice! I knew I should've got the 256GB instead! I thought I was simply pre-ordering an iPhone, though apparently I ordered a friggin unicorn....lol.

Card got charged around 9 PM est last night. Within the last couple minutes My Verizon updated with shipping info... they haven't sent me a text yet. It shows 2 business day shipping (I thought this was supposed to be overnight but oh well, I'm happy I'll be getting it soon). Weird because my brother n law got an iPhone 7 and they shipped it UPS and mine is fedex... both orders will have been shipped to my house.

If you're under a 2 year contract absolutely not. I tried last year with all my power when the 6s came out. I was juggled around for awhile until I spoke with one of the district managers and he so NO. He ended up giving me some credit for the mix up.
Ok kinda though so. Thank you

My UPS still shows no delivery date.

Shows arrival scan into Indy today (I live in Indy) but scheduled delivery says nothing.

Might have to call them today. Maybe I can go get it from the depot

Thats ******** no offense but i ordered same phone and been stuck on 9/28 since 3:35am est 9/9

The shipping seems random at best - I ordered the same phone also - email confirmation at 12:18pm PST no movement no charge. I think next year I might just pay for my device outright and order from apple. The apple thread has movement in the morning and evening for JB Verizon 7+'s some with ORIGINAL shipping dates in early to mid October :(

This launch IS a mess so next years will be even worse....Im losing faith in Verizon pre orders. I forgot last year this happened to me also - I ended up finding my 128gb SG iPhone 6s + at a BB store 80 miles from my home and the mobile manager saved it for me to make the drive.

Its ridiculous... last night theres was a bunch of people with the same phone getting charged i woke up today hoping for AT LEAST to have my ship date moved up you know to show some progress and nothing... i've called a few places yesterday trying to get it and cancel this order but no luck... plenty of 7's no pluses

Usually that's a good sign of progress. Check your credit card for a charge!
