My friend called Verizon and the rep cancelled his order and told him that there was an error and Apple will not be releasing a Silver iPhone. I would be livid and will not be calling Verizon until this fustercluck is over.
are you serious!! Omg lmao. I would raise hell in a verizon store. Some of these CSR's have no clue what they're talking about. Just look at this lovely convo I had with one.

The thing that sucks most is that my work gives a better discount to ATT customers and I was going to switch, but decided to stay loyal to Verizon. And this horrid preorder experience is what we get. I'm sorry, but if you preorder within the first 15 minutes, there is no way in hell you should get your device TWO weeks after launch.
That's not bad. I woke up and preordered right when Verizon site came up and mine is 9/28. What I think Apple did is knew 128 was going to be most popular, so they are pumping those out like hot cakes for the first 10 days or so, and then will begin 32GB.
I ordered two 32g plus one being matte black and the other rose gold. I have a conformation and that's it. I got up at 3 to order them. I'm wondering why we have been shafted!
Mines been at 9/28 and still processing. Hopefully date gets pushed up and maybe sometime this week. I ordered the 32GB 7+ Matte Black from Verizon
Same! We're definitely the forgotten ones. I've seen a ton of 128's and quite a bit 256's shipped. NINE 32's. Ridiculous.
However, I complained to Verizon about my "Deliver by" date switching to "Expected ship date" and my general frustration about waking up to preorder to get a date 2 weeks after launch. Got a $20 credit to my account and the upgrade fee waived (which should have happened to begin with with it being an online order).
Yeah I got charged for the $20 activation fee for both. They said as soon as it is posted it will refund. Idk how much I can believe that but I'm sure illl get it one way or another.
I was really hoping to have the phones before my girl left.
It all comes down to money. The 128 is $100 more, so Apple can put out huge numbers for opening weekend.
And this is the reason I don't work with any of the main carriers anymore. There are so many completely ridiculous charges that are unnecessary! But of course for choosing a frugal option in our free market economy I am punished by Apple and unable to preorder the unlocked model I want on 9/9 (When almost every other country in the world has the option to buy an unlocked, full price iPhone not tied to any carrier). It's collusion between Apple and the carriers, and I think it's completely ridiculous and needs to be broken up. So now I'm left to wait until an Apple Store has any stock available for walkins, which will probably be days, if not weeks.
I'm going to assume that my 9/28 date is for real. If anything maybe we will get some shipped Monday. I don't really watch the plane movements on the radar but maybe that'll have some clues.
I ordered an ATT 32gig Silver 7+ around 8am est on 9/9 on the Apple website.
Originally it was set for delivery from 9/23 to 9/27, but yesterday it changed to "Prepareing for Shipment" and the delivery date changed to 9/22 to 9/26. So hopefully I'll get it on the 22nd. But who knows.

Not for me either.

Interesting. The only 32s I've seen move that late in the morning was for T mobile. Would be nice to see some matte blacks move
Well congrats! I hope you enjoy it! I think it'll be a while before I can get my hands on one. You're getting the exact model I want. 32 silver plus. I stopped by the Apple Store tonight just to look cause I've never had a plus before and it solidified my choice in the silver over black for sure.
I got charged a little but ago too. 32GB 7+ Matte Black. Ordered 9/9 3:50am EST. it says expected shipping date 9/16. So prolly not tomorrow right and most likely Monday?
