Rreceived my tracking number at 6:02 EST for the silver 128gb 7 plus. I ordered mine at 2:57 on 9/9. Only part of the order shipped as I have another 128gb matte black 7plus for the mrs. I ordered silver just to get mines on launch day which will be delivered tomorrow. I usually don't look at the back of the phone enough to justify waiting weeks just to get the phone in black. Just saying. Had rose gold 6s plus. Black 6plus. Gold 5s. Black 5. Time to switch it up. Good luck to y'all.

Hey Guys,

I know I literally just signed up for this site, but that was the only way I could update everyone on my progress. I was able to preorder a Silver 7+ 128GB by 3:00am (EST) on the 9th but was given a Sep 23 - Sep 30 shipment date. Up until maybe an hour ago, my order status said "Preparing for Shipment" but when I used the *6737# method, I was told that my order was backordered.

I literally JUST got an email saying my shipment is on it's way and I can expect it by tomorrow (9/16) via FedEx. I live on the East Coast. For all those with shipping dates later than tomorrow, it seems like there's still hope.

My order page has been updated to say shipping as well and FedEx says my package has been picked up from Memphis, TN
yeah, but you got a silver -- the majority of the folks on this site are in knots about black and jet black plus models.
 
I preordered the phone last year, had it shipped to my home while I'd be at work so I was worried of the same thing, but it did not require a signature; FedEx delivered.
I've seen many say that for years it doesn't require a signature from FedEx. :)
Awesome! Thank you so much!
 
Thank you, still holding out hope for the rest of you guys! There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to how these orders are being processed. The good news is it seems like shipping notifications are still going out.
Same thing happened last year. Did not get shipping notice until the last last last last minute (like after I stood in line and got one at the local ATT store). Then it can to me that afternoon and returned it on Monday. The problem last year was how late the dates were (mid-Oct) and really wanted the phone before then. It worked on in the end but not pressed as I was last year.
 
Try to hold on to hope everyone, shipping notifications are still going out! I just received my notice that my phone's are on their way home!

That's why I chose the Silver 7+ 256GB thinking i'd get it launch day, guess not, F*ck ATT, last time I pre order through them.
 
To all of my fellow yinzers out there... has anyone from Pittsburgh/Ohio/SWPA received shipping info? I'm stuck at 9/23-9/30 for a 7+ black


I'm in Ohio. I received my tracking info yesterday for my 7+ rose gold. I had 9/22-9/29 for my original ship dates.

If we think this is bad, imagine next year when they introduce a new design they should start pre- orders a month in advance. F... Att next year.

A few hours ago mine changed from in progress to preparing to ship. I live in the middle of CA. I have faith it'll get here by tomorrow. I ordered a matte black 7+ 128gb
 
"Due to high demand, there may be a delay of up to 72 hours before the shipping carrier is able to provide you with information about your shipment. For additional information about your shipment, please contact the shipping carrier."

This was on my shipping notification from this year. Wonder if there are some in transit that just haven't updated yet.
