Ok Gang, so I just got off the phone with the direct of orders for Verizon.
She said that the main issue is that Apple sent VZW ZERO Iphone 7 Pluses.
They literally have no inventory for the phones currently.
The 9/28 date is the earliest ship date for the phones but on her system they are showing shipping 11/16 (for the 9/28 orders).

So everyone is not getting their phones until November no matter what? I should have just ordered from Apple's site.
I agree.
She was going to see if she should bump my ship date like they did for the 6+, but they have no inventory to bump up to.
She was afraid it may change my ship date to December or later.
As of right now, that's how it is looking unless VZW gets more inventory in stock from Apple.
I'd say hold off from overreacting too hard. Verizon reps are saying something different every time. Plus, I think if Apple gets whim of this, they'll correct it and ship the phones to Verizon faster. If we really ended up waiting until November, the bad press will build.
Also, the only reason I didn't preorder from Apple is because on their app, I ended up getting a reservation number and they said they'd email me later. I assumed that this reservation wouldn't put me in the same spot as those ordering at that same time. Am I correct there? That's the only reason I decided to complete my order on the Verizon site. I didn't get my reservation email from Apple until 10am the next morning.

That is odd considering I'm typing this on my JB 128GB+ that Verizon sent to me. See my post above. Picked it up this morning from UPS.
This wasn't a normal verizon rep.vv
This was the Director of Operations and Marketing .
I never call VZW customer service if I have any issues or questions.
I call these guys because they gave me awesome personal service and their personal cell,
in case I had any more issues.
If they really didn't have any or plans to get any why would my ship date move up almost two weeks?
If this is true I'm going to say screw it and get the Note 7 if samsung ever fixes the battery issue lol.
I think Verizon going to get more Jet Black iPhones much faster, apple is increasing production. I had a 9/28 shipping date on my Jet Black 7+ but I got mine in Launch day.
None. It's a beautiful device.
So jealous!!!! No updates for me. As much as I want jet black, if matte black becomes available first I'm thinking of just buying that... can't take the waiting. 
I'm kind of regretting ordering the jb+ 256. If I had known I would have gone with another color.
Why? Still waiting for mine, but it'll still be worth it. It's not like you're actually gonna wait more than a month. Have a Spigen Liquid Crystal case waiting for it to hopefully show off the shine yet still protect it from scratches. Also, as of a few minutes ago, the estimated ship date of 9/28 just disappeared. Hoping that's a good sign.

Let's be honest, you only regret ordering it or cancel your order because you're impatient.
I just got mine today. It's a gorgeous device. Sure it attracts fingerprints. But you knew that before you ordered it. In the end, it's just a phone. And one you'll be proud to own.

Yeah, don't cancel your order guys. I know this sucks. I'm there with you. But don't let two weeks control the phone you're going to own for the next year at least.
