7+ Jet Black (128/256) Date Change Thread

ayobonus · Sep 17, 2016

Woke up this morning to see that my phone is now PFS! I couldn't believe it but I checked the Apple Store app and it's true! Credit card has been charged for the tax (I enrolled in the IUP). I'm so surprised because I'm part of the October 18-31 group!

Thanks to everyone for dashing our hopes.

Why would they mark it as preparing to ship and wait days to ship? I don't get it.

My card was charged, but no tracking. Not in support profile.

Did you decide not to look for a Matte Black like you said? I really feel your phone will be there early next week.

So, when people say they can see their phones in support profile, what does that mean??

My phone left Kentucky last night at 5am. It should be on it's way to nj. Hopefully it gets to a UPS center near me today so I can go pick it up

I looked ALL day yesterday (starting at 4:30AM) and couldn't find one. Best Buy received the exact model I wanted at 11:30...AFTER I had already left! Tried to reserve for pickup last night. NO luck. Not one black available in any configuration.

To be fair, it is a weekend right now. If it were Mon-Thurs we probably would have seen movement by now. In years past a PFS on Friday meant waiting till Monday for shipping. Not sure if we'll be an exception this time.

I'm hoping for movement too!

I seemed to recall movement on Sunday night.

I requested it to ship to the UPS store right down the street from my house in Florida. It's just been sitting in Hong Kong for almost 24 hours since I requested the address change... getting a little worried now...

So YOU'RE the reason my phone has been stuck in HK this whole time!

Just messing, but I haven't seen any movement either. It's been in HK since 20:14 local time on 16 Sept. Kinda curious as to what's going on with that...

I'm in the same boat, sprint jet black just woke up to preparing to ship. Hoping it will actually ship today.

Last night my phone arrived to my local UPS center! But they don't deliver until Monday and apparently I can't go pick it up either. UPS has officially pissed me off.

My 128gb JB 7+ Sprint went to PFS and charged me on Thursday.
Estimated delievery dates are still 9/26-10/3
Placed order at XX:04am and recieved confirmation email at the same time.

Since then I have seen nothing else change.
Nothing in support profile
Nothing in ups mychoice
And can't find anything in ups searching by reference...

Same for me. It's driving me nuts lol.

This website has all your Apple products. Just before it truly ships, it usually shows up there first.

Well... at that point we're just splitting hairs! Sunday night might as well be Monday.

Still hope though, there's a plane leaving Shenzhen in around 12:30ish EDT. Maybe we'll be on it!

An original Oct 4-10 just went preparing for shipment!

JB 7+ 256 Verizon
Ordered via Apple store app

Initial date was Oct 04-10

I called and had it upgraded to next day...that changed it to Sept 27-Oct 01

Just had my cc charged for apple care (only), but I went PFS...and now date bumped back again to Sept 30-Oct 6

Card charged fir phone now too

What shipping speed were we seeing from Apple? They all shipped from China?

Lucky! I went PFS on Thursday - no movement at all (not even charged). Is anyone else in the same boat?

I am. I am getting pretty discouraged

Mine isn't showing in support profile nor UPS, so is Monday shipping even possible.

Well it could be my wife phone. It's black like me JB. I'll have to check her serial number.
Not my phone in support profile. It's my wife phone. Darn.

Peculiar. That doesn't have THIS iPhone 6 listed there...

dipan · Sep 17, 2016

256 JB+ order confirmed 12:04AM through AT&T... still no status change. 9/30-10/6 estimated delivery.

I cannot get over how fast the movement has been on this once I got charged and went PFS.

Slightly jealous of you! Wish I had that sort of movement on my phone but you had a good six hour head start on me. I think if mine had been similar I would've been able to pick it up at the distro center today (open until 3pm). Might be worth checking out if you have one nearby!

If you didn't buy directly from Apple, you need to enter it manually. When they ship it out, it is added first.

When they replace a product, they change the serial number. They replaced my watch and my iPhone and updated serial number both times.

I see. I'll keep an eye on it.
