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

Preordering through Best Buy. AT&T sold out.

It won't let me do anything. It says my activation lock isn't off?

Yes it is! I disabled it! Agh!!!!

I hear you, I ordered at 3:04 AM est, same ship date, at least I got the one I wanted pre-ordered, happy about that. Hopefully they ship sooner. We'll find out in about a week.
 
I ordered like 2 minutes after it started and the date was 9/23/16 at that point.
 
I ordered as fast as I could. Site didn't even come available until 12:03, then it kept hanging up on payment.

Hey all!

ATT site went live for me at 2:54 am. Within a minute I was done with ordering. One of the best experiences I've had ordering but I do have a date of 9/30-10/6 iPhone 7 Plus 256GB Jet Black baby! :D

Received both of my email confirmations as well from ATT - now it's a waiting game
 
The issue they promised would be resolved by pre oder launch didn't work for me..ended up ordering through apples site :mad:
 
Well, let's see what happens with this. Ordered my husband's 128 7 in Black at 1:51a Central time. Got Sept 16th shipping on that one. Ordered my 128 7 in Jet Black at 1:55a Central and got Oct 13-20th shipping. Refreshed Apple Store App - got in and saw 128 7 in Jet Black with Sept 16th date - so I ordered that as a paid in full phone on my line. So, technically, I have two phones ordered on my line - one with Next every Year through ATT and one paid in full through Apple. Apple told me I could order it even though I had a $99.00 balance on my Next account (which is from the down payment I put on my Next every year plan) so I'm hoping one doesn't get cancelled on me.

If my Apple one goes prepared for shipping and my ATT still shows that date, I'll just cancel my ATT pre-order and open a spot in the queue.
 
You guys with late shipping dates should be fine. As others have said, they usually "correct" those shipping dates days later. Happened to me last time, and I ordered way later than you guys... like 4 a.m. Still got the phone day 1.

That said, my ship date this time is "from 9/15/2016 to 9/15/2016." :)

Damn. ATT site got me going in about 4 til, and 128 Jet Black wont ship til 10/23 for me. Too late to cancel the order and retry for an earlier date. See that its 4-6 weeks now on the Apple site for Jet black. Oh well. Will hope that its like last year and that people got them much quicker than the anticipated date. And I work for ATT.
 
Husband and I both placed ordered. He place his the minute the site came up. He was adding anew line to my account. 7+ black 32gb. His says 9/16 delivery.

I waited a couple minutes. I really wanted to place it on the apple site but it never came up. So I ordered on AT&T. 7 rose gold 128gb. Delivery 9/16
 
My first order went in at 2:53:04am EST for 7 Plus 128GB Black.

Estimated Ship Date: 9/23 - 9/30.

Last order for 7 Plus was at 2:58am for 7 Plus 32GB Black.

Estimated Shipping: 9/30 - 10/7

SO in a 5 minute window it slipped a week! BTW, iPhone 7 is coming on 9/16.
 
Got into the iPhone Apple Store app almost immediately. For some reason it told me Apple Pay wasn't available for this payment, even though the button for Apple Pay was visible, so that slowed me down for a second, but got my 128GB Black iPhone 7+ for 9/16 delivery.
 
Order placed at 3:02 for a Black 7+ 256. Order status just moved to preparing to SHIP!!!

Date still shows Sept 23 but I've learned that is just BS. Most with a date within a month or relate will get it on the release date or the monday after.

Now i hope its not stolen like my last one....
