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

Just placed my order for iPhone 7 32GB MB, estimated ship dates of October 7, 2016 - October 14, 2016!
 
Well giving up on my JB 128 + that i ordered 2 mins after preorders started. Picking up a MB 256 + from Best Buy this evening. Hoping you all that are hanging in there for the JBs get yours soon!

If you check the ATT stock on the Istocknow.com/live website it shows most Apple stores out of stock on MB and Silver Pluses. I best well see a shipment of them come in over the weekend. Im guessing the 32GB and the 256GB models are almost fulfilled. I'm guessing thats why you can find them at best buy now.
 
I want to add that when I was talking to the supervisor regarding my issue he mentioned that the phones are being shipped based on location and not order date. They are looking to fulfill the states closest to the warehouse first and son on. Also, no change yet on my order and no call from them. I'm starting to believe it was all some BS.

For those keeping score... and especially those who got the ship date pushed back message on Monday, I have an update.

This morning I received a text that my phone has shipped and checking tracking shows that it will be here on Monday. The recap for those who don't know: Ordered originally at 9/9 2:17 am CT, received email that the order was received 9/10 10:33 am CT and was given original ship dates of 9/30 - 10/7. This past Monday (9/26) I received an update that my order was pushed back to delivery on 11/18 - 11/28 which required me to accept the new dates. I did to see what would happen and by the next morning had gone into backorder. This morning I received the text and email that my phone has shipped and can see that fedex has picked it up.

On Monday my time here may finally be done... unless of course I get a defective one.

I was in the exact same situation as you. Ordered two 7+ JB 128gb on 9/9 at 12:30.
Was giving a date of 10/14-10/21. Fastwatd to this past Monday. Got a email stating my order was pushed back to November. Att sent my the shipping info today. For a Monday delivery. What a crazy way of doing business.

I have only been following this thread off and on and only read that one JB 4.7" has shipped or received. Anyone else got theirs or eta sooner than 10/14?

Pretty sure that's BS.
I ordered 3 phones.
1x 7+ 256GB Jet Black that shipped via FedEx from Fort Worth
2x 7+ 128GB Jet Black that shipped via UPS from Memphis.
Since I'm in central Texas, I'm pretty sure that I'm not one of the states closest to the Memphis warehouse.

From watching this thread since pre-orders began on 9/9, it seems more like they went based on the models they received. For example, if you read back, you will see large batches of Matte Black all shipping within a day or two. Usually 256's then 128's. Then Jet Blacks the next wave.

And while it seems many people were shipped out of order, it took a while before we started noticing confirmation emails that had order times much later than the person actually ordered. So it may be they are going in order, only in order of the confirmation time, not the order time.

Then again, I could be just as full of BS as half the CS reps trying to explain things. :confused:

No, but you can go to the AT&T website and select the model you are interested in and it has a "Check in-store availability" link. You enter your zip code and supposedly it checks the 50 closest AT&T stores.

And if anyone is interested here are the current shipping ETAs if you were to order right now (Just so you can see the demand for various models. Or if you wanted to cancel your current and order a different model.):
