Each time after I refresh this thread, I tell myself that I'll not come back again and refresh the page (torture myself) and wait for that glorious text message saying my order has shipped.
30 minutes later, I'm here again. Ugh, who how am I kidding? More like 3 minutes.

Me too, Me too.
 
Good observation. I saw yours went backordered. You're almost out of the jungle. Pour one out for me when you get your 7+ and I'll see ya in the Apple thread next year
Sounds good Mike. Enjoy your new phone, you earned it. Lol

Just went to shipping notification.
Good for you. Another one of us among the first to order, and the last to be shipped. Only in ATT Bizarro world.

They seem to be catching up with orders, although they obviously threw FIFO out the window. You should see your order move to backorder shortly.

Mine just changed to back order! I just checked *6737# and it is showing back ordered.
MB 7+ 128gb ordered at 12:06 PDT deliver to San Diego
Hopefully I will receive shipping notice today like others!
 
Im stuck using a 4 right now cause my 6 plus broke, so unlike some, i actually really need this phone. If i had my 6 plus it wouldnt be that big of a deal. And i was one of many who stayed up super late on a work night to preorder this phone, only to watch others who preordered it so many hours, even days after i did, receive it before me. I'm being as patient as i can. Lol
I went from a 6 to 4s cause mine broke to. Feel your pain.
 
One hour after "backorder" thru 6737 I got the FedEx shipping email. Keep hope alive! I know it seems like it will never happen but once it happens it can happen fast!

256 7+ black (matte)
Ordered 2:18 am CT 9/9
Deliver by 9/22 @ 3pm

Has anyone who ordered a 7+ 128GB with an estimated ship date of October 7, 2016 - October 14, 2016 had their phone shipped yet?
I have the same shipping dates, no word yet, although I feel like I have seen someone with those dates already get theirs (maybe not here, but I think on an AT&T forum?)
 
And the hits just keep on coming...

My 7+ 256 MB and my daughter's 7+ 256 Gold both went to back order within the last hour and a half. Hopefully they'll ship tonight and make it here tomorrow. My 6S+ last year shipped after 7PM and got here the next day, so there is still hope.

With all the activity yesterday and today, along with some of the info we have heard from other forum members talking to insiders, it sounds like we will likely see more shipments yet today all the way through Friday. (How's that for a run-on sentence?) Hang in there, everyone. I think we are all getting close.

Now, if AT&T (or Apple) would just start shipping jet blacks, they would make a whole bunch more people happy.

There's hope guys. I can quit obsessing...well not really...not until my phone is in my hand. Unfortunately, the shipping dates were pretty much head on. With exception of a couple of days lol

It's easy to hit BS shipping dates two to three weeks after launch. Lol
ATT, never again.
