Carrier iPhone 7/7+ AT&T Pre-Order Thread

[Shadowlover6]

For people that got phones through apples reservation system today, did I hear of someone reserving a Verizon phone and putting it on ATT's network? Or am I making that up?

Yeah I say it on the thread. It's all the same line. Once you are there you can change it. Or so I heard on the forums

I pre-ordered an iPhone 7 Plus 256GB JB through AT&T like many of you. I ordered at 3:03:36 EST, and as of today I still had no movement.

Just got an iPhone 7 Plus 256GB MB this evening. It didn't come from AT&T.

I really just wanted a black iPhone with the dual lens. So I started checking around for inventory on Apple's website. There were multiple Apple stored with inventory of Plus models, but none had JB. So I gave up on the JB model and made a reservation.

I'd recommend canceling your AT&T pre-order once you have a reservation if you're willing to not have a JB model. I waited in line for about 15 minutes at the Apple Store and walked out with my new phone. I'm very happy with it so far.

I wish it was that easy for me.. every time I look to see if there are any reservations, gives me an error. :/ so now I'm just waiting for it to be 12:01am

Yes, you can buy a Verizon phone full cost/unlocked and since it has CDMA and GSM technology, you can stick your AT&T sim card in and go. The AT&T and T-Mobile phones are NOT dual technology though and ONLY work with a SIM.

Can anyone tell me the drop off procedure UPS is using for our phones?

I won't be home to receive it, but taped a signed note to my door, which isn't in a vulnerable area where someone would steal a box. Wrote a few sentences saying I authorize them to leave the box at my door. Will this be good enough for them to drop it off?

Do you know if Apple would put a Verizon phone on a Next program?

That was a stupid question, sorry. I don't know how to delete it.

 

[Shadoe]

Ditto. Same configuration. Same dates. No update.

Same here!

Well I had read earlier about someone who purchased a Verizon phone because of its value and just put their AT&T sim into it. I guess I just assumed they had it under the Next program but the more I thought about it, I can't imagine Apple would have let them do that.

So I reserved a 256 7+ MB for pickup tomorrow. Really wondering if I should just wait for the JB to be shipped. UGH! Don't know if I made the right choice lol

I got my reservation for plus 128 black at cherry hill nj Apple Store for tomorrow! (Today)

 

[adam044]

Just reserved my 7+ black 128 GB, Nashua NH store!

Pre ordered from ATT at 3:20 EST and has been preparing to ship ever since then. Not canceling it until I have the 7+ in hand.

Worked for me. Just reserved a 256 MB iPhone 7 plus at my local store. It lets you pick what time you want to go.

 

[LBInjSurfer]

As mentioned in a previous post, I ordered my 128gb MB 7+ at 3:03am on 9/9 with shipping dates of 9/23-9/30. I'm one of those who were left behind. Anyhow, I just reserved the same phone from my local apple store to pick up at 10am tomorrow morning. Do I cancel my AT&T order now and then go get the phone at the apple store? In the past, I have always upgraded via the apple website (my 2 year contract always ended when a new iPhone came out).

Do they update inventory for reservation throughout the day as shipments come in or as the stores go live each day?

Same phone, same Apple store! Are you using the Next program? I don't really want to cancel right now, but I'm afraid if I wait, my upgrade won't be available in time

Yes you can reserve a Verizon phone, then purchase it with att next. You will just put the sim from your att phone into during the upgrade process. When I went the rep gave me all choices to buy the Verizon phone... next, iup, apple credit, full price outright.. I chose to just buy it out right, but could have done on next if I wanted to. Btw, the Verizon phone is better because you can use it with any carrier.
