Just got off the phone with a local T-Mobile corporate store. Aaron informed me that they aren't expected to get any plus models in stores right away just like last time with the iPhone 6s except stock will be very limited in stores over the next few weeks to months until apple figures out the supply and demand chainissues.

I'm sure they're just probably saying that because they don't want to put so much pressure and overload on the stores and have so many cancelled orders online

I was just called by T-Mobile about a response to a survey I took and they informed me that Apple ramped up production late on the 7plus and that my phone may even be pushed back from its 09/27-10/10 timeframe. The guy apologized about 20 times but said that they just got the news. I'm not sure if he was well informed or just shifting blame for the issues they have.

iPhone 7 plus
Black 32gb
Finally ordered 09/09 receipt says 9:09am
EIP signed at 8 am.
Was on and off the phone with the the same rep for 5 hours......

I seriously hope he was just pushing blame

Haven't been charged.. Exactly the same status since I ordered at 12:05am on the 9th.. "Being Processed".

I got iPhone 7+ Black 128GB and iPhone 7+ Silver 128GB. Nothing has changed at all. I seriously wouldn't hold your breath about getting them on Friday. More like sometime next week.

I'm really annoyed if it's true with the lack of iPhone 7+ on launch. I wonder if they are just talking about the black ones or all colors... I guess I can try and be patient but I pre-ordered thinking I would have it for launch and now they are telling us iPhone 7+ won't be available on launch... what a bunch of bull honky!

so i'll write it again here. on sept 9th, i got to speak to a tmobile rep in store about doing the trade in of our iphone 6. my partner and i are on att currently and our contracts with att expire today. so this past friday we opened an account and got temp numbers so we can take advantage of the offer. we are going to trade in our iphone 6 but instead of the iphone7 32 gb we upgraded to the 7 Plus 128GB, both in matte black colors.
we were told about the EIP digital form i needed to sign. so we got the form very early saturday morning which i signed and submitted. so i guess we ordered saturday instead of friday? is that right? has anyone else done it this way? preordered after work? we have an estimate of 9/27-10/10 for shipment.
i guess we'll be getting ours around that time anyway huh?

Not getting a screen protector, and probably not a case either, at least not until the future. Naked iPhones are awesome.

Ordered a 128GB 7+ in Jet Black at about 12:15 PST via dialing 611.

Funny enough, the website actually let me in like a minute or two early, I was on the device selection page for upgrades hitting refresh and all the 7/7 Plus phones showed up, so I had the order ready to go like right at 12:02 PST, but my billing address (therefore shipping address) was outdated, and after updating it, the website would NOT work for me lol, and it was still only like 12:03. Go figure.

Estimated ship date of 9/27 - 10/24 given. I'm okay with that, just glad to get one. :)
