Quick PSA. I spoke with a buddy that works at UPS and he said that the Est. Ship Date only shows for tracking if the shipper uploads the billing information which it looks like VZW failed to do. He said that if the tracking information shows the "Departure Scan" in your city before 10AM local it should be on the truck for delivery even if the tracking doesn't reflect that.
I worked at UPS for years. this is completely untrue. the tracking information is solely based on the generated tracking number's barcode or QR code being scanned by a UPS employee. billing has nothing to do with it

Something's happening 9/23 Jb + date gone :):eek::):eek:, no charge yet though.
Looks like a lot of ship dates are missing, mine is as well. No charges either. Preorder page still reflects the same info as always. MB 7 + 256gb ordered 9/14, confirmation email 7:38 am delivery 10/5

Expected ship date on my 128 MB 7+ has returned with the same 10/05 date. This has happened twice now (last night and this morning). Just an update for everyone having theirs disappear.

Just an update. I received my 7+ 32GB Matte Black yesterday 9/20.
I originally ordered 9/9 at 7 AM ET and had a deliver date of 9/28.

Thanks VZW, eight days early!

Did they email you or text prior to shipment? I'm in the same boat as you, but I ordered at 3:30 AM east coast, my estimated date is 9/28 but haven't had a CC charge or any movement past processing

Alright guys.. So i preorder my 7+ JB 128G on 9/9 at about 3:28am EST, after not being able to get on.. My date was originally 10/5 delivery by, now MyVerizon says EST SHIPPING 10/12. I contacted chat this morning and she said that I will receive it by the date in the confirmation email. So if yours got pushed back, it will most likely still arrive when it was originally supposed to.. BUT my shipping date isn't blank, and it never has been.

So frustrating. Feels like theres no JBs anywhere..

My email confirmation has a ship date of 10/05 but is showing 9/23 on their website. I was told by a VZW rep that the date on the website is correct. Also called *611 and it says pending shipment on 9/23. Who knows what is accurate at this point?

All I am saying is what I was told as to why the Delivery Date is not showing and why it does not show as Out for Delivery, That is what my friend who works at UPS said is happening right now. Just giving out information as I have been told, since I know that a lot of people who had things shipped through UPS are not seeing as much data as they are used to when tracking the packages.

This is my exact situation, I've been told by multiple reps and *611 that it is verified 9/23...let's hope!

For JB pre-orders, maybe this is good news. My pre-order # is now an order # and it is different. My ship date is also gone. Ordered a JB 128GB 7 on 9/9 at about 3:10am EST.

Where did you see that your pre-order # is now an order #? I order a JB+ 128GB and my date is missing as well.

How long does it take to get a tracking number after CC has been charged?

Approx 12 hours? This is how mine went:

I got a text last night at 11:15 EST that my order was received. (I actually placed the order in store on Monday at 10:30 EST.)
I woke up this morning and saw a pending charge on my CC. (Not sure exactly what time it was charged.)
I got a shipping notification this morning at 10:45 EST.

Successfully cancelled my 128Gb JB+ and picked up a 128Gb MB+ at the local Apple store.

Best of luck to everyone waiting it out for a JB.

When I try to check status from the email it makes me login, unlike before. And there is no longer a preorder number only a order number. Ship date is still missing.

Under My Orders on the Verizon website. When I go to that page, it says processing Order # ... which is different that my pre-order #.

This is all I see when I check my order status..no cancel button..nothing :( How should I go about cancelling if I need to do so? I know I can call, but I want to make sure my upgrade is available when I go to Apple today.... I don't want anything holding me up ... Any help is greatly appreciated!!

That's weird. Mine looks the exact same but it has a red cancel button.

No, just go to the store. You would cancel before you go only to save some time. I wouldn't chance it.

I did that and it said No results found for given confirmation number ..all I have is a preorder number, ace number and location number..no confirm # :(
Mine was the same way. Honestly, the only thing you are doing by canceling your order before you go to the Apple store is saving yourself some time. Also, what if, because ifs do happen, the phone wasn't at the store when you got there. And you canceled your order. Egads. GO TO THE STORE WOMAN!
