[Xternal]

woohoo! so happy for you 7+ 32gb and 128gb folks! congrats! im totally excited for you.
now heres to hoping AT&T follows suit, and starts rolling out the 256gb models! my hope is restored!

 

[SuperWhiteKyle]

so it looks like there might be hope now that 128gb plus phones in all colors are starting to ship...my guess is that they just got to "that truck" and are making their way through...congrats to all those who have received shipping alerts already...i anxiously await my shipping notification for my 128gb 7plus Matte Black.

7 Plus, Black, 256GB

Order date: 09/09/2016 at 3:02:32 a.m. ET

Order status: In progress

Estimated ship dates: September 23, 2016 - September 30, 2016

But, I'm a premier customer. Which likely means I won't see this phone prior to December. And, I'll watch people ordering weeks and months after me get their phones.

I so wish I could get out of this AT&T Premier hell, but I'm locked into with employer

 

[chrisgazpacho]

I find it ridiculous that people who ordered so long after me are getting shipments already...

Happened for me on the 6. Ordered on preorder and got my phone 10 days after launch. ATT does not go by FIFO that's for sure.

I feel like I'm back in high school hoping for a snow day... refreshing the weather channel and MySpace (yes I'm that old) to see where the snow is and how many of my friend's houses its already started snowing at.

 

[Ronnoco]

LOL i feel the same. no worries man i guess im old too, because I was on Myspace. Hell, I kinda miss those days. Myspace was cool. could customize your profile and add music. bathroom mirror pics, and duck faced selfies.

 

[WashCaps16]

.. did you not cancel ya order yet chap? lol

Got 2 phones I'm waiting for my G

 

[JSpekBB6]

Okay, well this happen.... This might be confusing esp for ones that ordered early I ordered from a AT&T Store around Noon on Friday. So I dunno how this freaking system works. I had an original ship date of Sept 23-30

Hi all, I just received shipping confirmation on my 7+ 128 Gold. Ordered at 3:36 ET on 9/9/16 through AT&T website. I'm too stupid to insert the photo. Original dates were 9/23 - 9/30.

It went to "Preparing for shipping" immediately after ordering and calling the *6737# always displayed "in progress".

It appears the 128s are going now and the 256s will follow. I also have a matte black 256 7+ which i ordered 15 minutes before the gold one which just shipped.

FWIW - AT&T's check my order page still displays "Preparing to ship" for both devices; so definitely watch your email.

Waiting in the same matte black 256 plus. Let us know when it ships.

Absolutely don't use FIFO. More like they use LMFAO.

 

[RCGMac]

Congrats, hoping my number comes up soon. I got excited when my email went off, sadly it was just shipping notification of the g/f's case from Amazon...

I am also waiting for the 7+ MB 256gb. Thanks in advance for any heads up!

 

[zhume]

Why do I feel like I'm the only one who's not gonna get their phone tomorrow.

iPhone 7P 128GB Matte Black

Ordered 3:00:50AM

Preparing to ship, not a peep from ATT since 9/9....

We're twins. Same phone, same order date, and exact time down to the second... I don't have a shipment yet either

My guess is that they are scanning phones from different warehouses. That may be why we are seeing sporadic shipments from different times. At least we are seeing movement people! Its still early!

I have 2 orders made on AT&T Next at 3:05AM CST on 9/9 (had 2 browsers open for simultaneous ordering):
iPhone 7 Plus 128GB Gold
iPhone 7 Plus 256GB Black

Had both items in "Preparing for Shipment" status since 9/10.

Just got shipment notification for iPhone 7 Plus 128GB Gold on Thursday, 1:35PM CST. Shipping FedEx Overnight from Fort Worth to Austin, TX with estimate of Friday, 9/16 by 3PM CST.

I think the suspicions of the orders being shipped according to storage capacity are spot on. I expect my iPhone 7 Plus 256GB Black to ship later today for a similar delivery window.

where are you? just wondering what area you phone is shipping too. maybe they are shipping by region

 

[phil-ga]

You know, those early order times always had my suspicions up. I got in at 2:55am EST and finished my order at 2:58am. Received a 9/23-9/30 window. Haven't heard a word in 5 days. I've seen may other who "got in early" who have also received nothing from ATT since Friday Morning last. They shouldn't have opened early like that. Something doesn't seem right about this.

Two years ago I similarly got in early like that, too (about 2:50am ET, if I recall), for the 6 Plus. Then, as things died down for traffic some days later, I had a rep tell me that folks like me were put in at some point after the 3am-ers, because they weren't supposed to receive my order that early.

Yet, as we can see, unless someone can provide evidence otherwise, apparent "early" orders to the preorder window are not simply placed at some other point in line, but are actually treated no differently than other orders, assuming that reports on this thread are accurate.

I'm interested in mainly people getting 7+ Matte black 128s responses (but others feel free to chime in ), where are most of you located? I'm east coast and was able to preorder before 3 am ET. I'm wondering if the region may have anything to do with the way in which people are receiving their shipment details?

Central Texas Near Fort Hood
