Called T-Mobile at 2:51am EST and got the 128 Jet Black Plus with the 9/19 date although I think that's just a placeholder and I'll more than likely get mine on launch date
 
26th-3rd here as well, got my email confirmation at 3:06am est.

Was going to cancel my order after seeing it but then remembered the dates usually get bumped up and there is still a good chance getting it next Friday.
 
Frustrating... I was refreshing on both the Apple Store app on my phone and on Safari on my MacBook, and wasn't able to get in until around 2:07 cst. When I finally got in, the AT&T eligibility checker threw an error, which delayed me another 15-20 seconds. When I finally got it, it was 2-3 weeks out for my 128GB ip7+ JB. Here's hoping they ship earlier than estimated...

Almost hate to ask this, because I usually roll my eyes at people who do this, but has anyone called Apple and whined about their experience and been given any goodies to placate them? I think in the past they've given something small like an extra lightning cable, headphones, case, or free overnight shipping...

Don't waste your breath. The hold times, if they even let you hold, are ridiculous today and technically the shipping is already 'overnight.'

Same shipping date as most of the thread. Order Jet Black 128GB Plus on the AT&T next plan and got the September 26th to October 3rd ship date. I hate how the Apple Store App brought you to the accessory page after you put phone in your cart.
 
Ordered 7+ jet black 128 on Verizon website. Email confirmation at 2:17am central with deliver by 10/5. Verizon order status page showing ships by 9/23. Hope the order status page is correct and ship by means delivered by.
 
My confirmation email was from 3:08 EST on the 9th and I was given the 9/26 to the 10/3 dates. Launch day would have been cool, but I am ok with this too (and you never know, there could be a tiny chance of launch day or shipping prior to this date. I'd rather take the time to make sure it is done right.

Chatted with Apple. Move my date up.

I just got off the phone with Apple. And got the same dates as you. They told me there was no charge for that change. Did they tell you the same ?

What I'm wondering is with the apparent shortage of on hand supply of the jet black plus models is if physical stores will even have any in stock on launch day
 
Conformation email was 3:04 am. 9/26-10/13 was my date. Almost 100% positive this date was given right off the bat. As always, I'd like to think Apple will bump and adjust dates over the next couple of days once they start getting orders situated and figured out. We go through this every year, and it always turns out the same way lol.


I was about the say the same thing. Apple always gives the worse case scenario and adjusts everything the last minute. I say the 9/26-10/3 orders will come out on release day

That's my hope. I will most likely be heading out to my Apple Store EARLY in the morning and try my luck there. I am willing to buy a 256GB if they have any, but at this point, I may decide to switch to the regular black as I tend to be anal about 'micro' scratches. Decisions, decisions...

128GB 7+ JB
 
The painful part of this is the waiting game. We more than likely won't see a shipping status til Wednesday night
