Just checked my order status:

7+ 256GB Gold - placed with AT&T Next on 9/19/16

Website shows Order Status: Preparing to Ship (like it always has since I placed the order).
*6737# shows The items in your orer are currently on back order.

From comments in this thread, it looked like seeing back order status was good news?

Ordered a No Contract 128gb Matte Black for AT&T from Apple Store last Friday (9/23)

Says processing Oct 21-28th. I see a lot of people who ordered No Contract have to wait until the end of October. Boo.

I ordered on 9/18 through next (most carriers are non-contract) and website says PTS but *6737# says In Progress...WHats the F'n difference.

I'm saying no contract like I buy the phone outright

In the past Apple has hesitated to offer unlocked no contract full price phones at launch

What I meant was...what's the difference in preparing to ship and in progress. The are listed on AT&T's website as two separate statuses.

Ordered 18 minutes post launch through apple, signed up for the UP. Was set for the 18th-31st on a Jet black 128 Gig plus.

Absolutely no movement or updates. Still looking at the 18th-31st
I am trying so hard to think positive & hope for the best but with each passing day being stuck in "processing" is really starting to piss me off!!

20 days stuck in "processing" that's so wrong! I ordered 9/9 on pre-order day, email confirmation of my order 14 minutes after pre-order started. October 18-31 delivery? This is just so unreal!
That is strange, I ordered one minute after you and mine was delivered yesterday.

I ordered in a Verizon Store the following on 9/26 :

RG 7 32GB Ship date 10/19
(2) MB 7 32GB Ship date 10/19

Much to my surprise, the Rose Gold 7 shipped from Memphis this morning. Showing 2 day delivery via FedEx, to be delivered Mon. Oct.3.

The tracking originates in Memphis, with no Chinese, Korean, or Alaskan scans. Maybe they have stock of RG 7 32 GB sitting in Memphis?

Anyway, my wife will be happy.
