Finally got charged for my iPhone 7 256gb JET BLACK

ordered 9/9 3:15am ship date was always 9/23.

Sort of over the whole new phone thing due to the wait, however i'm certain i will be fine with the new handset.

FYI...if you're waiting until after midnight to see if a local Apple Store is going to have the model you want, go on the Apple Store app like you're going to purchase a phone and if the model says available tomorrow, it should be available for reservation just after midnight.
Ugh...I hope this isn't too accurate since I just checked my Apple Store down the street which according to that has NO pluses AT ALL and only reg 7s in 32GB Gold and 128GB RG.... :(

My closest store will have a 128 RG + tomorrow. Guess I'm stuck waiting. Hopefully they get a full shipment of just +s. It feels like that is all that's left.

Ordered JB 7+ 128GB on 9/9 @ 2:15am CST. Wanted to share my chat i just had with VZW rep.

He first asked for my confirmation and location code. I provided the information and he stated that my phone had been shipped and that i would receive it 9/23. I then asked if he could provide the tracking number. After 5 minutes he replies and gives me the confirmation number that i had just given him. I nicely asked if he misinformed me about the order being shipped and if it actually did ship please provide the tracking number. After another 5 min he says that the order has not shipped that it will ship sometime late tonight or in the morning and i will receive it 9/23. I then asked if he was guessing or if there was something in the system showing this information. He replies yes he is seeing this information in the system, that my order was flagged for fraud is the reason it has not shipped yet, it has been cleared now to ship.

I'm assuming it was flagged for fraud because the account is not in my name but i used my credit card for the order. The card has a different billing address from the account that i could not change at the time of the order.

With all the cancelation stories i have seen on here plus him seeming lost has me worried that it has not cleared and is still having issues. I never received anything from my card company or VZW to inform me that the order was marked as fraud. My card has not been charged, i have no email shipping confirmation and the website is still showing processing.

Me too. There are 5 Apple stores in my area and the only thing showing "Available Tomorrow" are the 128 RG 7+ and the 256 Gold 7+

Unfortunately I think it is. I noticed this last night, all my store had was a 32gb + silver and that's what the reservation page showed as the only plus available.

Yet another night of refreshing Apple Store stock at 12:01 and only seeing Rose Gold & Gold 7+ models. There isn't a MB or JB 7+ in the entire state of Georgia. The wait continues... Maybe my JB 256gb 7+ shipping on 9/28 is actually my best bet. If that ship date is even accurate...

I checked last night after midnight and most of the NC stores had 7+'s in all colors except JB, and all capacities. I should have reserved one, because tonight the only color that popped up was gold or rose gold 7+'s with 128 GB as the only available option.

Sometime within the past couple hours I was charged for a Matte Black 7+ 32 GB ordered 9/9 around 2 PM EST. No tracking or anything yet.


Still no charge on my Jet Black 7+ 128 GB scheduled for Friday, aka tomorrow now (past midnight).

I ordered 7+ RG 128gb at 12:15pm 9/9 with a ship date of 10/5. I know have a pending charge on my bank account but no change to verizon site. Seems as it is now 11:10 I am headed to bed and will check in the morning. Good luck to us 10/5ers!

Best news I've heard in a while! I ordered a 128 + JB shortly after 3am est (as I couldn't do the app loophole) so my charge shouldn't be far away! :D

There has been a couple of people that they go to the Apple Store grab their phone and do the Verizon payment plan and then head to the nearest vzw store and they take the old phone and get you the promo
I was told differently by a few people. One of them including a friend who is a manager at Verizon. She said they can't do the promo for purchases at the Apple store.

Thank you, I heard people talking about this was possible but I think you are the first person that actually tried. I'll be doing the same as you as soon as I got my iPhone7.

Are you talking about buying the verizon iphone 7 under installment at the apple store then trading current phone to the verizon corporate store to get the $650 credit???? If this is possible I will do it tomorrow I cant wait till Verizon ships my phone cause the phone I want is available at the apple store.

How accurate is this info? People claiming they did it without any issues.

My gold 7 plus 256 has been sent to the warehouse to ship. Original ship by date was 10/5. I think more people will start seeing movement soon.
