Ordered the 32 gb black plus on 9/9 at 9:30 et shipping dates of 9/30-10/07, went into back order yesterday but nothing has changed since.
 
I don't think I'm the first...

Well you are definitely the first 256gb plus of any color I have seen ship from AT&T. I have been waiting for them to start shipping.
 
I had preordered 2 phones matte black 32 for shipment between 9-22-9-29
Cancelled online today and picked up in store, awesome looking phone,
Haven't activated yet. They had a lot of this particular phone though.
So did you do it all in the same day? AT&T?
 
i just did an "apple reservation" search online. checked maryland, Pennsylvania and virgina. norfolk virginia actually has stock of an at&t black 256 plus. they were the only store out of all 3 states. most stores had verizon availability for plus phones. not sure how or why verizon gets priority but they definitely have more phones than at&t

Verizon has a different model, and Verizon did state that their preorders were at expected levels. Apple probably made too many during the weeks before launch date.
 
Mine still hasn't moved an inch and I have 4 friends who all ordered days after me for the same 128 mb plus and 3 of them have their phones already and 1 shipped yesterday....irritating as hell
 
Well I have a confirmed reservation to pick up my next plan AT&T MB 256 plus for today. Which I placed the reservation a few mins ago.

I followed your link and was able to reserve a MB 128+ at an Apple store for pickup later this afternoon!! I gotta watch some NFL before I go LOL. But thank you for that heads up!! I canceled my preorder through AT&T just now. Easily too so I know there was no phone for me on their end. So sad AT&T... You've pissed off one too many people this year.... So much for FIFO!! My order was completed at 12:47PM PDT and tons of people who ordered after me already have their phones in hand! Like what happened?? Good luck to everyone still waiting for theirs! I know your pain! :(:(

They ordered days after you and have their phones? Do you know specifically when they ordered? Also what region are you?

Your order time makes me really sad and salty at AT&T. Just doesn't make sense how they're fulfilling their orders.

If you planned to use Next I hope you called the Apple store first before cancelling the ATT order and not based on what 1 person said on the internet without confirming. Im pretty sure that reservation stock is for iphone upgrade program people only; it was the only pricing option on that link.

I have no desire next year to have to go to a store in that debacle to pick up a reserved phone; or Apple screw it up again next year. Not to get this one a few days earlier.
 
Stuck in the middle of MO with one Apple Store 2 hours West and the other 3 hours East.... Both had the phone I ordered on hand for reservation, such a tease while I wait for my preordered phone to be shipped...
[doublepost=1474219770][/doublepost]
2 ordered Sunday 1 late Friday 1 early sat....Indiana and ohio
Damn that's frustrating...I am located in the Mid-West so hoping to see some movement early this week.
 
Just got the message that my phone shipped. Will be here Tuesday.

Iphone 7s+
Silver 128Gb
Ordered 9-9-16 at 8:28 PM EST
East Coast
 
question guys!!!
so, my local apple store has an iPhone 7+ 128MB in stuck, I'm with att next and fully paid my phone
is it okay to order from apple and bring it to att for the trade-in promotion??
 
Same- I am happy for them but it kills me a little inside when I see people that are in the same area as me and got the same phone get shipping info and im over here like.....i just want my phone
I feel your pain. It's not fun at all.
 
No change in my status either online or with *ORDR#.
7+, 128, Black

Region: Utah

I said I wasn't going to login here until Monday - who am I kidding? First thing I checked this morning was my order status. Congrats to those with 7+ 128 MB that are FINALLY getting shipping notifications. Hope I join your ranks soon, but at this point I'd probably faint if my status changed.

FYI - I received an email early this morning stating that my 128GB matte black 7 Plus finally shipped! It has an ETA of Wednesday. I ordered at 3:04am EST at launch, and was in the 9/23-9/30 wave. The order definitely shows as 'backordered' via the phone/text query before if gets shipped. At least mine did.

Usually backorder is bad, but I was given a tracking # so hopefully a good sign!
