I ordered exactly at the same time.. with same shipping window. Come on!!!! lets hope we get it tomorrow!!!
I've been ordering since 2009. Every iPhone I got I HAD to sign for.... although who knows, maybe you are special and won't have to
I have a similar order time showing on my order. I am transferring service from TMo to ATT and ported my numbers in. I got an email on Saturday afternoon that the order had been delayed because of a porting issue. I called ATT and got it straightened out, but they had to cancel my pre-order from 9/9 at 8:00 AM ET, with 9/23-9/30 shipping dates and rebuild the order. The rep was able to get me the same shipping window but my order time now shows 1:00 ET 9/9/2016.
Go back a few pages.. theres been plenty that said theirs shipped
I originally was going for jet black plus but saw the dates and quickly changed it to matte black.. waiting for my shipping confirm now
From Apple or AT&T? Any order I made with Apple had to be signed for. My iPhone 6 and iPhone 6s, both ordered from AT&T, did not require a signature.I've been ordering since 2009. Every iPhone I got I HAD to sign for.... although who knows, maybe you are special and won't have to
ATT Iphone 7+ Matte Black 256gb - ordered 9/9/16 8:09a CST w/ ETA Sept 22 - 29
Just went from "In Progress" status since it was ordered last week to now "Preparing to ship". Might be nothing but I think some will ship by end of the day. This is the first time the status changed.

It was always 9/22-9/29. I was curious why everyone else's was 9/23-9/30. I did get my order in at 2:48 AM EDT on 9/9.
It’s one thing to miss out on a ‘launch day’ iPhone due to limited supply. I get it, there’s just not enough to go around and the matte black 7 Plus seems to be very popular.
But, when I see that people who ordered 5 – 30 minutes (or more) after I did (same exact model, color and capacity) receive shipping notifications, while my status remains unchanged, it’s just outrageous.
That is the equivalent of waiting on line at the Apple Store (or any store) and the staff walks passed you (even though you got there earlier and were in line first) and pick people that are standing way behind you off the line to process their iPhone order first, leaving you with nothing (or at least waiting longer).
No actual store would ever do that, especially during a high profile product launch (and get away with it without some bad press) – so it’s outrageous that AT&T’s online store is doing exactly that. If they don’t have the ability, logistics and know-how to ship high-demand items (that their services run on) in a first come – first served basis, then they shouldn’t have an online store presence.
Oh, and while I am venting, can we all agree that their app and site completely suck? Unorganized, slow, and totally amateurish looking. They make billions, so they should be able to figure all this stuff out.
This isn't a Yahoo store front from 1997. It's AT and friggin' T! Every now and then we are reminded that today’s ‘AT&T’ is just merely ‘Cingular Wireless’ wearing the big and powerful brand name they purchased years ago.
Completely unacceptable.
Having said all that (and forgive my rant), I do hope that they prove me wrong and that all of us in the same order window (9/23-9/30) waiting for our iPhone 7+ matte black (128gb) pre-orders to ship, will receive shipping notifications today. If this does actually happen, then this retailer instigated virtual 'line cutting' will be a lot more tolerable.

If it makes you feel better, I ordered the same configuration from both apple.com and Best Buy, both before 12:30 AM PST on the 9th, and I don't have shipping info on either. Apple says Oct 4-10 and Best Buy says by the 16th, but I have seen no movement on the Best Buy one, and Best Buy is known to lie a bit on when you'll be getting things. Really, I think the bigger issue is that Apple just didn't manufacture enough phones. I'm not sure if it's because of manufacturing difficulties for something like the new dual cameras in the Plus models, or if Apple is just completely out of touch with consumers and had no idea so many people would want the Plus, but I'm not sure AT&T deserves blame on this one when no one else including Apple is coming through.
It's obvious that NO 256GB 7+ have yet shipped. I would think that at least some will ship by the end of the day today. Probably...
Surely its not for nothing, your order at that time gets you one before that of anyone and everyone that ordered after you. You preordered to get a spot in line.
Yes I agree, Apple typically delivers a lot of stock on launch day, but the top tier model is always the hardest to get. It would be very unlike Apple to not deliver at least some on launch day, so we'll have to wait and see.
Means nothing.. my order has been preparing to ship since saturday.
And just like that I got a text for shipment confirmation!
But coming from Memphis, TN.... better make it to OKC, OK tomorrow!
Probably around pages 95-125 saw at least 5 confirmed (with pics) shipped 128gb plus' trickling in -- no?
Both. Some years I did apple, some att directly... both scenarios I HAD to sign. Guess I was right, you are special!
