I've been stuck in Korea for over 2 days now....

I've been charged by  & Citizens Bank through the IUP...if it is not delivered to me by Tuesday...should I not be pro rated a refund of a week....and at least have my Care extended through the date of receipt?....it's like having to pay your mortgage on a house you haven't closed on yet...

Same deal! Ridiculous!
 
This is what UPS just told me....

Apple exceeded the amount of packages they can clear per day and we are trying to get them delivered as soon as possible but it's too many of them
 
I received my iPhone a few hours ago. A frustrating process, but in the end I received it 5 days earlier than the original date.

Good luck guys!

Good that you got yours, but seeing stuff like this is especially frustrating because people are getting theirs days in advance of what Apple originally specified and yet I'm not going to get mine delivered until days AFTER Apple said. Mine is still in Korea since yesterday morning....and it sat in China for a solid two days after being "shipped" before it even left for Korea. Shipment notification came to me Monday morning and it looks like I'll be lucky to see it seven days later...despite paying for "expedited" shipping.
 
Placed order 12:05 on sept 9th, should not have been a Sept 27-29, but ok, I decided to keep in case it ships early, it didn't so I was going to go to the Apple Store and camp overnight but no Plus in stock.

Got very excited when it said my phone was gonna be delivered on Tuesday sept 20th but everything went sour and delayed, since I was going out of town for two weeks on the 20th.

Checked for a reservation locally and landed a matte black 32Gb 20 miles away.

Pre-ordering has become a joke and disrespectful to those of us who stay up excited about our new phones.

The phone I picked up at the store should have been shipped to us, not held there for someone who randomly checked if the phone is in stock.

Love the phone but this was the worst release in the history of iPhones and I've been there for every single one.

Hope the system changes
 
I am writing this on my brand new iPhone 7 Plus....I got fed up with waiting while my preordered phone was stuck in Korea. Just check istocknow.com and try and find a phone at a store...you'll probably get one faster then waiting for ups....

Good luck everyone!
 
Finally Korean departure!!!

What next?!

I saw that too. I need to get a life or at least a beer.

What's weird is per http://flightaware.com/live/iphone - there aren't any K-town departures for the next 7 hours. Maybe it takes that long to load a plane, who knows. Or maybe this is just another phantom update like the "bad weather" they have been experiencing.
