You can basically copy and paste this same thread every single year. Everyone will get their phone on the 16th regardless of when its preparing to ship, or processing, or in transit, etc. Every year someone gets their phone early by accident but it won't be youEnjoy life and it'll come when it comes
Not every year my friend. A handful of people received their iPhone ahead. I believe one of the marketing girl got one two days before. She even YouTube it.
Not sure if it was in purpose or mistake. But a few do get their ahead. Just don't know who. Good luck.

I wonder where my baby is. China? On a palate somewhere in Texas?

I was referring to people who, when they submitted their order, were quoted as receiving launch day delivery. I would think that most of those people got it on launch day as promised, except for rare circumstances (missed their delivery, bad weather, carrier error, etc). I think those who wait weeks are the people who were told when they preordered that it would be weeks. Now THOSE people really should be interested in tracking their order since they don't know when its supposed to come!
Sorry if I seemed like a party pooper in my original post, just funny it feels like deja vu every year with these threads and many others
I get it and this will happen every time unless they stop making iPhones. I hate iPhone release day and this will be the first time I won't have my phone on release day. Yet people who woke up at 8am and preorder got a 9/16 date meanwhile I have a date for 9/26 and my order was in by 12:30I was referring to people who, when they submitted their order, were quoted as receiving launch day delivery.

Ordered two iPhone 7 + JB. One at 3:06am the other at 3:10am. I had both with shipping date as 9/26 -10/3. I called apple earlier today and got both on expiated shipping . My new dates are 9/17 - 9/24 for both iphone 7 + JB .
Reps are saying it not posible. I have called several times!!!
That's because it's unnecessary. All iPhone pre-orders are shipped next day delivery usually using FedEx or UPS... There is no expediting a next day delivery unless you hop on a private jet to the factory...

Yep. People get hung up on the expedited vs standard shipping when it really makes no difference. Apple will choose the correct shipping method to get it to you.
People please quit calling for expedited shipping. Damn. Just be patient. There isn't such a thing. Been through this too many times.
Did you have to call the bank or did it authorise automatically? I have the same problem and have been calling apple and my bank for the past hour.
I was on the phone to my bank waiting to speak to someone then I got a text message from my bank saying that an online transaction at Apple.com had been made for £819 and could I confirm yes or no if I had made the transaction. I replied yes. Then they send a text back and said that I should try to make the purchase in 10 minutes. After 10 minutes I re-entered my card details on the website and it went through. The money has been taken from my account and my order went to preparing for dispatch on Friday night. It's still showing as delivery on the 16th of September.
