I live in Texas (right outside of Austin) and I haven't heard anything at all after "preparing for shipment" appeared. Since the phones are coming out of Dallas, is it possible that it just won't send until really late today since I am so close? 7 Plus 128 GB in matte black. Estimated Sept. 23-30.
Same phone here. I'm in Dallas, and I'm hoping this is the case.

I'd like to know, when checking orders through *6737# do you guys check with your wireless number or your ATT order number. When I try check by order number, it says put in your order number then the billing zip code. I've tried the order number "space" zip code, said information not valid. Tried order number and zip, no space, same thing. Tried order number then on the next line the zip, same error. WTF? It's a 21- order number like most all ATT orders. Anyone else run into this? I don't trust the check by number.

Check by phone number if the new phone will have the same number you have now
 
Not sure if I seen this in any of the 163 prior pages but I found a link that gives the status of the iPhones that seem to match up with what you get in text messages.
https://www.att.com/order_status/

Also, my wife's iPhone7+ Silver (order by 3:03AM Est 9/9) just got shipped to Memphis and is on its way to west central Florida by EOD tomorrow.

My iPhone7+ JB (order by 2:52AM Est 9/9) still shows in-progess on the link above and preparing to ship on the main AT&T status page.

Only my cell phone number works and then it gives me a different answer than in a browser

Amen. Everyone was being so relaxed in here, saying AT&T always gives later dates and then comes through. Well, not this year.

Same as last 4 years... I got my iPhone 6s plus 128 Space Gray shipped on Friday morning and delivered on Monday... Same arguments and pissed off people... Same i ordered at 3 am and how is someone at 8 am getting before me... Same dates last year... this is all the same as last September.... Calm down it will happen
 
Hey guys, I just pre-ordered my Iphone 7 Black 256GB from at&t yesterday evening and just got my tracking number 20 minutes ago from fedex. It'll be coming in tomorrow by 3 p.m. What's weird is that I also ordered a 7 Rose Gold for my wife on the 10th and it now says backordered when it said preparing for shipment the day I ordered it.
 
Just got a message from Art Lucero about my 128gb 7+ matte black that was supposed to have been expedited by the executive level team to the front of the line because of all the problems I had ordering (online & in the store):

"Hi Dennis - there has been some inventory constraints on several devices from Apple and as such there are some shipments that will not go out until Monday at the earliest. We are continuing to receive shipments daily, but at this time it does not look like we received the inventory needed to fill your shipment for tomorrow. I show that it should be going out on Monday next day to you."

I've been an Apple fanboy since using a Mac SE in art class high school in 1987 - this is a stupid thing to be pissed about, but I am nonetheless. First time I won't have the new iPhone on launch day because I switched to T-Mobile this year. :(

Ok, so I talked to At&t on the phone, they say all orders are to be fulfilled in alphabetical order.:D;)

I wish they'd send this out to all of us waiting for something they don't even have in stock instead of keeping us all in the dark hoping for something that has zero chance of happening. May I ask which model you ordered (has to be a big storage Plus model, right?). What a terrible way to do things. Thanks for posting this Dennis.
