I'm going to play IUP roulette today. I reserved a JB 128 7+ using the IUP link on iStockNow. The email says I have to trade in my current iPhone. Whoops! I don't have a current iPhone :). I'm fine signing up for IUP, but I'm not already using it. If they tell me to get lost, oh well, I should get my originally ordered phone soon enough. If I succeed, then I'll have my phone a bit earlier. Fingers crossed...
Ding ding! No hassle at all. Though there was a glitch adding the line to my wife's Verizon account, so in order to expedite I asked if I could just buy it outright, and so I did. Walked out with a shrink wrapped jet black iPhone 7+ 128GB :D. Just cancelled my pre-order with Verizon so some of you just got bumped up a spot in line :).

Because I am an impatient ass I just called, and my orders been released! apparently for a new line of service the status will show as processing until the line is activated. Should have both my phones by Monday.

I wonder if that applies to port-ins as well? My order is still showing as processing even though there's been a pending charge on my CC for nearly 24 hours. Hopefully I will get some tracking info soon. A Friday delivery would be perfect!

Seems phone are moving now towards November deadline. However, the JB 128gb 7+ are still on delay. I think they're one of the most demanded phones so likely will have to wait another week before I see movement.

Ordered my JB 128gb 7+ on the afternoon of 9/9, got a ship by date of 11/23, and it shipped this past Saturday and arrived at my door yesterday. Absolutely loving it so far! I'd think most other November dates will be shipping soon given I got mine more than a month early!

I would assume so. I have two phones on order, ones a port in the others a new line. She told me that the package is awaiting carrier pick up. From what I've see I should get it Friday, but she told me Monday (could just be playing it safe).

I have a 32gb plus rose gold on order. I think I want to change to a mb 32gb plus. I tried calling 611, but they weren't able to help. Has any body tried to do something like this and were you successful? Thanks.

128 MB 7+, ordered 9/30 (around 8:45 PM EST), EDD of 11/30, just received a text that my order had been received and shipping info will follow in another text.

Does anyone know how long the tracking information takes from receiving the first text? ,

Gone have to cancel and place a new order, unless you did the $650 credit for your phone, you'll lose it

I hope the dates don't slip for the mb 256, 7 plus, by next week, as I can't place a new order till then, ugh, this has been a nightmare

My order for a JB 7+ 256gb, placed on 9/24 with 11/23 ship date, was just charged against my card. Can't beat a month early.

What's the shipping weight of just a 7+? I have two phones on order and it only shows the one on the ship email, yet I was charged tax on both. But it could be just an error in the system cause the one phone doesn't have a number yet.
My box weight is 3lbs.
