People who preordered at or within an hour+ of 3AM on 09/09/2016 shouldn't have to worry. By the very nature of the pre-order we should be the first in line. I pre-ordered at 3:03, how could they have sold out by then. Lol. Also is this true for all retailers / carriers?
Except ATT is NOTORIOUS for not following that order thus you have phones ordered much later than other that have already received shipping information.
 
Looks like they started shipping them out this morning. 7+ Matte Black 128 GB

I just checked using *6737# and it says shipped, and up until today when I checked online it said shipped and expected delivery was on Friday 9/16 after 3pm. But now when I check online it says they couldn't find a match for my information, when I clicked on the link sent in the initial email just as I had been doing before. I'm probably worrying over nothing though, right? Someone tell me I'm right :eek:
 
Looking more and more like it was just falsely advertised as releasing on the 16th. I don't see any evidence that anyone's had one ship. I ordered my 7+ JB 128 at 2:59 AM and it's still "Preparing to Ship."
Same boat. Looks like we will have a bad time this weekend. :(
 
did anyone else have the hold on your CC disappear before getting your shipping info? mine is gone but no tracking info or anything yet. Probably wont update until tonight anyway but heres hoping it comes early

Hi all, lurker past few days, veteran of iPhone 6 launch.
7+ 128 bat black || Order date: 09/11/2016 at 8:26:14 p.m. ET
How long after the bank hold disappears does it take for shipping info to change? My wife just told me the hold is gone from the bank info and thought I cancelled my order. My details still say preparing to ship 10/14-10/21
#6737* says no location because no location information provided. Huh??? Anyone know what that means?

Good luck to all - I hope all phones arrive for everyone quickly. :)
 
I've noticed 4 camps of people in these threads. 2 are the extremes. Also I want to preface this by saying I love you all and this thread so none of this is hate. Just fun observations. Get ready for a **** post lol.

Camp 1: Curious to see if they get a launch phone but ok if they don't. Hates camp 4 with a passion and will dedicate more posts to them than about their phone. They are a Minority.

Camp 2: Hoping to see they get a launch phone but totally relaxed one way or the other. Usually minimal posts and enjoys popcorn while reading. They are a Minority.

Camp 3: Really wants a launch day phone and tends to be not particularly happy when they see no signs of it. They usually are the majority and constantly share shipping and speculation. A mixture of positive and negative but nothing extreme.

Camp 4. Adamantly wants a launch day phone and feel they deserve one. Will find themselves bashing their carrier and Apple for causing them this panic. They assume the worst and have to defend their right to a launch day phone vs Camp 1. They are a Minority.

So that's it. I love these threads during the launches. Hopefully no one takes offense but TBH I actually don't care :)

This!
Ima Camp 2 person :)

No movement on my order at all. Was really hoping would see a change as we got closer to friday. Matte Black 256gb Plus 9/23 - 9/30.

I have the exact same shipping dates for mine. (7+ Rose Gold 256gb) and i ordered
Order date: 09/09/2016 at 3:01:44 a.m. ET. there was a delay in ordering my husbands phone because i had issues for his is a Jet Black 7+ 256g show 9/30-10/7. Order date: 09/09/2016 at 3:43:28 a.m. ET


weird thing is when i open the email i got from att to check the status of our orders initially i get the unable to locate screen but when i refresh it pops back to the regular screen and still says preparing to ship.

also, the charges from AT&T were there Friday when i ordered, fell off, and came back the other day and they are still there.
 
The myATT app says "Preparing For Shipment" (as it has since 2:50 am EST 9/9 for my 7+ 128 matte black), *6737# says "In Progress" (just checked that for the first time this morning), and the website says it now doesn't recognize my order ID. I don't know that I've ever been in shambles before now.. Is this what it feels like?

Last year I preordered a 64GB Silver 6s plus at 3:30am after I overslept a little bit. I got an October shipping date. But I still got my phone just four days after launch.
 
Just checked my order and ATT now cant find it. Tried searching by order number then looking under my account and clicking on orders.We cant find a match for the information is what the error says.
 
It seems they ship different models one by one from lower to higher demands. Now, 7+ matte black, when will be jet black?
