When you transfer your upgrade, doesn't tat tiered line lose its upgrade date as well?
When I did it two years ago it was my phone that had the upgrade but I "buddy upgraded" the tiered line ("gave" my upgrade to my sister and bought the phone under her line and just switched the SIM cards. This year, my phone wasn't due for an upgrade (I have no idea why because I was pretty sure I used mine two years ago, but it was saying I'm not due until 02/2017), but another tiered data line on our plan had an upgrade (someone who works for my dad's business) so I just used his upgrade and again, when I get the phone I'm taking out the SIM card and putting in mine.

7+ MB 128's are available for in store reservations if you get on the reservation page quick. Store inventories are updated at 0800 daily. I am cancelling my VZW order once its in hand today. (Still waiting for 9/23 --ordered right after store opened 9/9...) Might want to try that route if you're stuck with a long VZW wait...

When you say reservations page? Do you have link?

Ah. So pretty close to the estimation. Mine is 10/05 and I was hoping it was an overestimation and that I'd get to test out the lowlight and telephoto at the concerts I'm going to 9/28, 9/29, and 10/03 but I guess it'll have to wait.

It's been real everyone but my iPhone 7+'s have shipped. 256gb plus matte black. 128gb plus matte black. 128gb rose gold. Delivery confirmation 3:14am edt. I live in Florida. My original date was 9/23 then 9/28. The date disappeared before shipping was updated but that had happened before without shipping. See you all next year to read more information and "I spoke to a rep" stories.

Mine also says shipping today (09/18). Finally! I have been staring longingly at my Rinke case for a week now.

HAHA! I have my new Saddle Brown Apple case on a shelf and it has been looking very lonely. I'm just glad that it is finally in motion and I'll receive the phone before I am out for business for 2 weeks!

Still no movement on my 7+ 32gb Matte Black, deliver by 10/5... I wish I could cancel and just go to the Apple store, because the closest one to me has the 32 and 128gb versions - but that store is 4 hours away.

Ya I got you, so you didn't exactly use the TRANSFER upgrade feature. You are just gonna put your Sim in there and thatll be the transfer.

That's awesome!

My JB 128GB Plus was given a 10/5 shipping date. The only movement I've seen is having it go up to 10/12 ship date now :(

Ordered 2 phones on Verizon site.
  • 128 GB Rose Gold 7
  • 128 GB Jet Black 7+
Got confirmation email at 3:21 AM on 9/9. Deliver by date 10/5 on both the email and the My Orders page. No charges on my credit card. No updates until today... where the Expected Ship Date changed from 10/05 to 09/30.

No charges on my credit card, however.

In 2014 I definitely used a buddy upgrade; the tiered data line I was upgrading didn't have an upgrade available, so I had to transfer it from an unlimited data line.

My ship date is 11/2. Maybe a glimmer of hope for something earlier!

Question:

I had an original shipping date of 10/26 but I got a text today from Verizon that my shipping information has been updated. When I go to pre.verizonwireless.com it says "Your order has been sent to the warehouse for shipment" and "Expected Shipping Date: 9/18/16" but no charge on my CC. When I go to "My Orders" on my Verizon account, it still says 10/26 and that is it. Should I expect it sometime this week?

*The reason for the month jump is because Verizon screwed up/canceled my original preorder that I placed at 3:15am EST on 9/9, so they put in a request to move my shipping date ahead.

EDIT: My question is in regards to an iPhone 7+ 128 GB Matte Black

I got the same one as you with an original 9/23 ETA, mine just went through and shipping date changed to 9/18. Another charge wave is in progress - check your CC today and tomorrow, you might get lucky brother!
