I opened an incognito window in chrome and the process went very smoothly. I even traded in an old iPhone 5C I had lying around and got the $400 credit. Says arriving by 9/23, but hopefully that will move up!
I just order a Matte Black 7 Plus 128 GB. I also got the 09/23 date. Its interesting because the 32 GB model already had a 09/29 date. I wonder if its all the people who ordered early on the phones or if some people were able to get through on the website while the rest of us got the e-mail address page.
Preoredered 128gb 7 plus black thru the Verizon app...delivers by 9/23
128gb jet black plus delivers by 10/5

I had the same issue too, but then I tried https://preorder.verizonwireless.com and it worked perfectly. 128 gb matte black showing 9/23 delivery. Hopefully 9/23 is a code word for 9/16
I thought Verizon waived the $20 fee when you upgraded online. They charged me the $20--I'll probably send reach out and see if I can get this refunded.
This Verizon pre-order experience is on par with the iPhone 6 pre-order experience with AT&T. Website having major issues, took a good 12 minutes for it to load and allow me to actually select the phone. Just kept bouncing me back to the countdown page that was in negative time and still counting.
Their app started selling earlier but their app is garbage and would not allow me to choose the option to return my current device, was forcing me to pay it off. Not worth paying it off to me, rather turn it in. The website allowed this but was not working for the iPhone 7 or 7 Plus until well after 3am ET.
However I successfully upgraded my AT&T line via the Apple Store App and Apple Pay. That will be here on the 16th. But Verizon really let me down today, never had an issue with them in the past. But their new website and new app, while sleek and modern looking, are complete garbage.

I've been holding for 20 minutes with Verizon. The rep is having problems with the system. Have two separate orders to make; seems like I'm getting hammered hard with the unlucky sword tonight.
I could not order AppleCare+ this time, anyone else see that? I guess trip to Apple Store to buy that :|
Not bad. I think the last preorder I did was back around the iPhone 4 maybe? Went with the 7+ in hopes that I don't hate the size. Overall, pretty smooth with a 9/28 ship date. I think I've seen those dates move up before but either way, I think it'll be ok.
I just ordered a jet black 7 Plus 256GB and a rose gold 7 128GB and it said 9/16 up until checkout and they confirmations shows 9/28. I guess worse case I'll get them 9/28!
Finally able to get through. Order 7 plus 128 gb matte black, got confirmation email but delivery date 9/23. I wouldn't be surprised if this was moved up. Guess we will find out soon enough. I'm going to bed. The Verizon site was terrible this time around...
Got in! 256 GB, iPhone 7+ Black. 09/23 too.
Saw some October dates when I was adjusting my specifications. That was fast. Hoping the 23 moves up to 16 as I got in as soon as the phones showed up
