Oh my god, ordered my 7+ Black 128GB 10 days ago and still no sign of.. anything. Estimated delivery of 11/02... asked a verizon rep if there was any further information such as an estimated beginning ship date but they just returned the same 11/02 delivery estimation I already knew

It's crazy how were barley coming up on 2 weeks since launch day yet I feel like I've been waiting months for my phone.. First world problems! On the bright side I have a nice dinner and an amazing family that I get to come home to. Until tomorrow folks may we all get blessed by some good news.
Barely coming up on three weeks; but who's counting (besides everyone in this thread)?

Good for you!!!!
Hey guys!! Been lurking on this forum for a long ass time but I am posting now! I have a very interesting story to tell, a story teaching patience.
9/16 - Waited on launch day, #2 in line, no plusses in stock. Waste of time lol. Ordered:MB 7+ 128gb EDD 10/26.
9/23 - Read here that you can reserve iPhones at apple! Cancelled my Verizon order and reserved a MB 7+ 256gb @apple. When setting up the purchase I was told there was no option for me to keep my UDP whilst doing Verizon's payment plan (to maintain eligibility for the $650 trade in), in other words I had to buy it at full price or do apples upgrade program. I had to cancel that order .
9/23 - Called Verizon back and ordered a Silver 7+ 256 because the wait would be shorter for that color w/ EDD of 10/19..
9/26 - Found out Best Buy does Verizon accounts and would allow me to keep my UDP, do DPP, and trade for a MB 256 7+ so cancelled my order and attempted to reserve it there. Nope sold out! I feel extremely stupid and angry at this point.
9/26 - Being fed up with my impatient ass, I ordered a 256 MB 7+ w/ EDD of 10/26, again. Was flagged for fraud because my dumba** cancelled and reordered so many times, I see why that is a little suspicious, but we got it all straightened out. Now I vowed to just wait haha.
9/28 cc got charged and now awaiting tracking!!! ONLY TWO days after ordering. WTF? Ain't that some sh**.
Btw, 256gb +'s ship much much faster, exc JB. With the little amount of patience myself and many others on here have, spend the extra $100 to keep yourself sane haha
I share all of this with you because I have read every post sinc 9/16 and drove myself crazy following the journey of iPhone debauchery and frustration. That sounds very embarassing when u read that but I'm sure everyone on here can relate LOL. Lesson learned: With patience come rewards, even though I just proved I have none.

I would try the second link first, it seems easier.
I ordered the afternoon of Sept 24 an iP7+ MB 256gb and just got text that my payment has been accepted and it is preparing to ship. I checked my account on VW and the is no estimated date of 10/26 now. I am so excited my will come 2 day ship as I live in Missouri. It would be nice to get by this weekend but we will see
Launch day was the sixteenth..wich Friday would make it two weeks.Its going to be three weeks since preorder date which I suppose is when we started waiting.Either way I just want us to get our phonesBarely coming up on three weeks; but who's counting (besides everyone in this thread)?

Good for you!!!!
I'm starting to think the best thing to do is call in and complain and get a jump the line for no real reason like everyone else.....
I ordered on 9/9 still have no movement off 10/12, and people who've supposedly ordered the same phone I have, after me, are getting charged and deliveries.
This makes ZERO sense.....
7+ MB 128

They are in stock all over at apple stores.. Try Reserving one. Seriously I cancelled my order because they have so many iphone 7 plus's in stock at apple stores. Check istocknow.com

Yes, from reading here u get charged. The statu updates in about 12hrs, you receive tracking, and gets delivered in 2 days
[doublepost=1475130114][/doublepost]
I actually never asked for a jump in line, it's more so because the 256 is more readily available. People are waiting forever for their 128s

Like Coltina she got charged a couple days after ordering her 256I ordered the afternoon of Sept 24 an iP7+ MB 256gb and just got text that my payment has been accepted and it is preparing to ship. I checked my account on VW and the is no estimated date of 10/26 now. I am so excited my will come 2 day ship as I live in Missouri. It would be nice to get by this weekend but we will see
Ordered MB 7+ 256GB on 9/24 at Verizon. Had an estimated ship date of 10/26. Just got an email that my order has shipped! I'm in South Jersey. It is being shipped via FedEx. Never called Verizon, but I was certainly impatiently waiting by my window.

I'll finally have my iPhone 7 Plus JB in 7 hours, nothing but bad luck trying to get this thing seeing as it was supposed to arrive yesterday.
Placed an order 9/19 for a 7 MB 128GB with an anticipated ship date of 9/28/16 AND a 7+ Silver 256GB with an anticipated ship date of 10/19/16. Was charged yesterday at 9:36 pm for the order cost for both phones. Received shipping tracking for only the 7. Is it possible both phones will ship in separate packages? Or should I not get my hopes up about receiving the 7+ Before 10/19 (even though I've been charged already)?
We have a few Apple stores within a few hours of us, and 128 MB 7+s are pretty much never in stock. (I think I've only had the opportunity twice to reserve one) Also, we are taking advantage of the $650 trade-in. I know some people have managed to get the trade in while going through Apple, but some haven't, and Verizon isn't supposed to. Also, Apple is getting stricter with the reservations being only for program members.
I got a iPhone 7 128GB Jet Black ordered on 9/9 at 11:30 am EST. The Orginal Shipdate was 10/12. It's just shipped. So hopefully that's a sign for some of you that they are starting to ship now. Have any of you had one that ships Thursday early in the morning come Friday? Thanks

Ok I am kinda pissed. I backed up everything from my former iPhone by going to settings > iCloud > backup.
I restored the latest iPhone backup I did to my new iPhone 7 plus but nothing transferred over. None of my apps, texts, anything.
I THOUGHT paying 9.99 a month for 1TB iCloud kept me from having to do the ******** iTunes thing and I could completely restore that way, seamless and painless without having to plug into a stupid computer.
Am I wrong on this? How do I transfer everything from my former iPhone?

That page wouldn't load for me. So I tracked though FedEx here is a screenshot. Can u pick up a shipment from a FedEx Facility on a Saturday?
