Does premier mean you get yours last?
While I see this as a valid point, I do fail to see how http requests would put that much of a strain on Comcast's network (especially as a Comcast customer, myself, where Atl data caps even got bumped up to 1TB data).
I'm in Northern California and ordered the same phone as you. I got my tracking information around 7:30 AM PDT this morning. I had my order in by 2:48 AM EDT.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?
I ordered both from AT&T and Apple on Launch morning. AT&T order at around 345 am and Apple Ordered at 321am. Both Black 256GB 7+, AT&T delivery date was 9/32 to 9/30 and Apple delivery date was 9/27 to 9/29.
One was a NEXT upgrade and One was a new NEXT transaction. The Apple charges for tax just processed on my American Express - I wonder what that means and if it is shipping soon?
Like a fool I forgot to upgrade the shipping on the Apple order so it is slow shipping unless they upgrade it which I doubt.

It doesn't really matter as long as you get your phone tomorrow. Just because it shipped, it doesn't mean they are getting their phone any earlier than you. I feel your pain. I'm still waiting on shipping notification for my 7 plus 128 gb black. I ordered at 3:22 AM ET. I'm confident I will still get it tomorrow.
i just got shipping info on my wifes 32gb rg plus that i ordered around 730am friday, i ordered it after my 128gb matte black plus and it is still preparing to ship.
I am on east coast too- ordered at 3:14 AM. 128 Matte Black iPhone7 Plus. GF got a regualr 7 JB 128 and nothing for both of us....still says preparing to shipI'm interested in mainly people getting 7+ Matte black 128s responses (but others feel free to chime in
I am on a Premier line as part of an employee discount program and iPhone 7 Plus 128GB Gold shipped today at 1:35PM CST.
Also want to answer another question, not that my phone is on it's way. My pending charge fell off a couple days ago. Phone was just shipped about an hour ago from FT Worth, and I still don't have a hard charge on my account. So those wondering about the pending charge disappearing hope that helps.
I don't have factual confirmation, but I'm almost certain of it. At the 6+ launch, I ordered first day, got it finally December 22nd, literally 3 months post order and reading this and other forums people were absolutely getting the exact phone I ordered much much earlier than me. There were people ordering from AT&T non premier that ordered first week of November and still got it before me.
So am I. got the 256 black plus, ordered at 3:02 am and it hasn't shipped.
For those thinking about standing in line… Here's an update to consider!

Official word from Apple now on all news outlet services that I've heard on my radio or seen on TV is that there is no jet black phones of any kind and no Plus phones "of any kind" available In Store worldwide on launch day. So that would include the matte blacks some people were hoping would be hoping for. I know the context of many conversations was hope for supply in third party stores and carrier stores. But I believe it's a pipe dream to believe that the carrier stores would have better supply than Apple stores.
So - hard reality we must accept - there are no Apple stores in the country that will be selling any plus phones of any color - and I firmly believe (opinion) there's no way you're going to find them in third party stores. Apple simply wouldn't do that to themselves.
People who want to wait for a phone tomorrow will only be able to find iPhone 7's and only in 4 colors… Super limited supplies of Matte black 7's as well.
No 7Plus Jet Black
No 7Plus Matte Black
No 7Plus Rose Gold
No 7Plus Gold
No 7Plus Silver
No 7 Jet Black
So if you're a 7Plus-only lover there's no reason for you to wait in any line in any store anywhere in the US. Waste of time. Apple has spoken!

I ordered my 7 Plus Silver 128 Gb an hour and 5 minutes before you and still not shipped. There seems to be no rhyme or reason to their shipping process. I don't expect to get mine tomorrow and it sucks but Inwould be way more content if ATT would communicate better and be a little more transparent.
I am still waiting on my 7 Plus 128 Silver. I ordered at 3:04:50 AM ET and still hasn't shipped.
Yes, Xternal. I could use a cold one. Thanks, and cheers!
Hang in there, folks. Unless there was some major catastrophy affecting 256GB phones, I'm confident they'll still ship tonight and be delivered tomorrow. I would also bet the 9/23-9/30 bunch will be delivered tomorrow.
