256GB jet black, iPhone 7
Called exactly at midnight (California time)
Was very surprised they answered in under a minute
Last year with the 6s, was on hold for about an hour and got it first day of release
But with this year, like I said, they answered in under a minute and got an email confirmation at 12:12am and off the phone by 12:16am.... But got a 9/23 date. Reading everyone's dates, it seems like a fill in date for the time being and that we'll get it on launch day. I'm hoping but hey we'll see I guess

How are they gonna charge ur card?
The card I have them only has half of the money in the account and I was gonna put the rest on Friday
The VZW rep said they charge the card when it's shipped. Should I put the rest before Friday?
I have a 9/23 ship date but hey, you never know if they ship early, which is why I'm wondering if I should have the money in the account on/before this Friday

yes i would probably pay all of it. if you don't have enough they might cancel your order or put a hold on it until it gets paid.
I do the monthly plan. I assume if your buying the phone outright and you don't have enough they cancel the sale
Oh man please don't tell people to mess up their orders. The trade in can be done after ordering the phone and everything will be fine.
Shipped. Looks like it came from west Chester PA. which is only about an hour away.
No option for me to hold it. That sucks.
7/128/black.

It only shows the later date. I am hoping that they would ship separately, as the confirmation email says they will ship as they become available, but it doesn't appear that will be the case.
Hopefully the plus buyers will start seeing movement soon!
LOL, yep, strange stuff...I noticed that in my email receipt it said my card ending in 0210 had been charged. Definitely did not use a card ending in those numbers, considering none of mine end in those. But I checked the card I did use and it's pending so no worries I guess...
This goes against everything 4 separate CSR's I've spoken to have told me and that multiple other people have confirmed. There's an entire other thread discussing thr $650 trade in promo.
THERE ARE NO CODES.
Every CSR has said the same thing (for once): if an iPhone 7 is on the account and an eligible device is received for trade in, the system will detect as much and the promo will be applied. Period.
I think that a lot of Verizon 7 Plus customers are going to be disappointed this Friday. Me included.
There is most certainly a promo code. When you go through the process when you are buying the new phones the promo auto applies and boosts your trade in to $650. I know because I did exactly this. I wasn't taking any reps word for it.... I was getting it placed correctly with proof on my end.
I have an order in for the matte black 256 iPhone 7+. I have a delivery day of 9/23 but when I go to Verizon's website, i don't have a delivery day listed when I check the status of the order. Hopefully I get an email today saying my order is shipped. Not sure if I should call in and question it

Can someone corroborate if this is true? I would be pretty unhappy if it is. When I called to confirm some things with my order and asked about the fact that only one date showed in my email, she said the phones would ship separately as they became available.
Starting to look this way, despite what VZW customer service has been telling me
Ordered at 4 am on 9/9. 256GB Matte Black 7 Plus. Just spoke with a Verizon rep online about my 9/23 ship date. They stated this was an estimate, but that I can call a number to get it moved up to 9/16. Super strange. I have never heard anything like this before. Going to call the number now and follow up.
if you get it moved up let me know. This is my first time preordering a phone and I would LOVE to have it on the first day.
Hahaha. That wins best CSR story of the day. Sounds like someone was tired of talking to someone.
"Yeah, man. Just call this number and they'll magically move up your ship date just for you. Your current ship date is entirely arbitrary and dependent upon which customer service number you call."

Sorry, but no way that's happening. None. Zero percent. Sorry.
Yea I really don't expect it to work, but I am going to call at 8 am and see what they say. They also said I could change my delivery address with no issue even though another rep told me I couldn't. Just shows you that these reps likely don't know much at all.
[doublepost=1473680313][/doublepost]
Will do. If it works, I'll provide the number I got.
Cheers to try and keeping a good attitude.
I want some of whatever that rep was on bc it had to have been some good stuff.
