You can go to FedEx before u head out to Lake Charles and pick it up the guys will give it to u

Thanks! Thats good to know. I guess it will depend on where the phone is when we leave tomorrow morning. UPS is in Port Allen, but I'm not sure if FedEx is there too or actually based in BR. We have someone helping with our doxies and kitten, so he can bring it inside if it comes while we're gone.
 
Cancelled my JB and compromised with matte black from apple store guys
Jetblack is a myth

I was just lurking in the T-Mobile thread and apparently a lot of them are seeing that their jet black 7+s are being delivered today. :-/
 
Already posted, but jet black 256 (not a plus) picked up this morning in Ft worth, due for delivery Monday . Original expected dates were 10-7 to 10-14 so I'm not complaining! Ordered 3:16 on 9/9IMG_8141.jpgIMG_8140.jpg

Okat I was processing a few days ago, then on backorder for like two days and then now Im preparing to ship. Anyone have a similar experience? I can't focus because all i think about is this damn phone. I want to either know when I am actually going to get it or something.

And now Im on backorder again... Well it looks like there is quite a few on backorder this morning. 128P MB and 128P RS ....
 
This whole process, apple and AT&T, is crazy. I have never seen apple drop the ball like this. still waiting on JB 7P 128GB order 9/9
 
Same here. Hope there is some progress soon.

Same here. I have a silver 7+ 128 on reserve today at 12pm at one of the apple stores. I really hope I get the tracking number before that. Would hate to cancel the reserve to find out my ATT phone is not shipping or cancel my ATT phone since its Matte and I prefer Matte.

Went from backordered to shipped. It's shipping FedEx. Says actual pickup Fri 9/23/2016 8:07 am in Memphis TN. Scheduled delivery is Mon 9/26/16 by 3:00 pm. It's in Memphis, and I am in Memphis... is there anything I can do to expedite this process? It's not giving me the customize delivery option online. It's just so close to me I'd like to go on and get it....

128GB MB 7+ preordered 9/9 3:24 am EST
 
Mine went to back ordered sometime over night. I'm hoping to see movement today. However, no charge on my card or email/text. I almost just flat or bought the phone when I saw they had MB at the Orlando stores, an hour away from me, but I didn't and now they are all gone this morning.
Original order 9/9 3:10am est 128gb MB. I don't get how people who ordered after me are getting their phones. It's pretty upsetting. Going to keep checking the apple site because I'm fed up with att.

Doubtful. Memphis is FedEx's main hub. It's not like it's sitting in a neighborhood office, and they could easily just go grab it for you. I'm in same boat.. one last weekend with my 6 ;)

Haha that's funny, I've been on backorder for 86 hours now...


Where does its how as "backorder"? Is it only when you connect to *6737# or is this also showing up in your AT&T profile? When I check the order status online, it still reflects as "In Progress / Preparing for Shipment". However when I dial/text the 6737, it shows as backorder.

That is the only place it will show back-ordered. You can call 866-267-4510 as well. I just called and said it is not in stock and yesterday it said my order was in progress or preparing to ship. The next step is typically an email or text with a tracking number but some did not get it before their phones shipped.

Yes that's how it has been for most people who had their status change from PFS to backorder to shipped.

The website still showed PFS while 6737 showed backordered.
