I remember we ordered about the same time and same device. Mine is being delivered tomorrow. Hope for yours soon too

I keep telling myself to be patient, it will get here when it gets here... but, dammit it i want my phone already!!!

FIFO my ass ATT!!!
 
Well guys, my patience has served me well! I finally got notification that my iPhone 7 Plus 256 GB Matte black has shipped! It was shipped today via FedEx from Ft Worth TX and will be here tomorrow.

Good luck to all!
 
Well, I live in uptown Charlotte right in the middle of all the protests (see CNN for more info. We've been declared in a state of emergency). Just heard that fedex and UPS won't be making deliveries tomorrow, but I don't even care. I hate to make this forum depressing and personal, but keep Charlotte in your thoughts and prayers. Tonight's a bad night for our city.
 
I'd wait till tomorrow. I believe a lot of the early JB +'s orders are about to ship in mass out of DFW. A rare knowledgeable ATT Supervisor told me yesterday that their were three waves of shipping coming out of DFW. 128 Matte on Monday and Tuesday, 256 Matte + on Wednesday Thursday and JB +'s on Friday and Monday. Thus far, he's been 100% accurate.
Seems this post is accurate. Should we wish to get some movements for our JBs on Friday and next Monday?

Yeah, I'll be praying for you all! I just saw the governor has called in the national guard.

Hello Community,


Many of you received a text message in the last 24-48 hours that indicated your iPhone 7 was "on its way", and reminded you about the trade in promotion we are offering. The purpose of this message was to remind those that ordered an iPhone about the promotion, but it appears we didn't communicate that as well as we'd hoped. Your shipping dates have not changed, and this was not meant to be an alert of the impending arrival of your new device.



We apologize for the error, and you will be getting a corrected text message in the next 24 hours with updated verbiage.



This is what you should be receiving soon:



AT&T Free Msg: We recently sent you a message that your new iPhone was on its way. Your original ship date has not changed. Go to att.com/checkstatus for info on your order and ship date. Your message was intended as a reminder that you can receive up to $650 in monthly credits toward your new phone when you trade in an eligible iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus, iPhone 6S or iPhone 6S Plus. Go to att.com/tradeinoffer for details and special trade instructions.





We know how excited and anxious everyone is to get their new devices, so we apologize for any confusion or frustration this has caused.



Thank you so much for your feedback and outreach!

The old ATT "we feel your pain" response. Yet, they will do nothing for those that have had shipping issues. At least Apple does more than apologize, they make it better. Not these guys. $$$$ before customer service.
