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

AT&T doesn't want to give you any information - yet you can't cancel your order once it's in preparing to ship. It's a scam I tell you lol

Are you serious? The cancel button is still on my page though. I'm glad I preordered it thinking I might port in a line. That way I'm not f*cked if I'm unable to cancel it and I choose to camp out Thursday night.

Just checked my credit card and my phone was charged and now it doesn't show an iPhone charge on it like it got cancelled. Is that a good thing or bad?

Good thing. Before they charge it it'll disappear. You should be getting your shipment confirmation soon.

Besides stating your device's storage size and original shipping dates, when you get a shipping notification, maybe you should also state your carrier (e.g.: FedEx, UPS, etc.).

I'm beginning to get that AT&T uses FedEx for their shipping, and not UPS. Let's see if that's true.

It'll also help others who are so inclined to at least know which shipper to begin monitoring.
 
Placed 2 orders on 9/9.

Order 1 @ 3:09 EDT:
7+ 128 Rose Gold
7 128 Gold
Shows a delivery date of 9/16 but says In Progress. Has not changed.

Order 2 @ 3:11 EDT:
7 128 Gold
Got email this morning that it shipped for delivery on 9/16

This sucks because my card is now at its limit so if they put a charge it may not go through. Of course it could go through and I would just get tagged with an over draft which is fine just as long as the order goes through. They got the preauthorization when I preordered but the charge was pending until it disappeared yesterday.

Just because a group of lawyers threatens to sue and/or actually files to sue against a company, doesn't mean such a lawsuit has any merit and won't be dropped.

After all, unless someone can find evidence that Apple in some way guaranteed that existing Upgrade Plan consumers would have a separate queue of devices in which they'd have a better chance at procuring, then the case is baseless.

Which, by the way, since we're on an AT&T thread, let's go there. Using myself as an example, I've been on an AT&T Next plan. I have also been anal-lytical enough to read through all of the plan's fine print. I have seen nowhere that it states that, by virtue of being on such a plan, that someone I or anyone associated with my account have any special status or priority when it comes to upgrading.

Bottom line -- the only exception to everyone ordering iPhones from essentially the same pot (where only inventory changes based on demand make the difference) would be for those VIP folks that already have a device in hand (which was Apple's call to make during the logistics process and is not illegal by any stretch).

The complaint is an interesting read. Did you read it before you posted?

Nope, Wife's 7 128gb matte black is being delivered Friday. Got shipping details. My 7 Plus 256gm Matte black has had no movement and still says 9/23 - 9/30 =[ Oh well. It will eventually come. But hope springs eternal.

My two pending charges also disappeared today. I think they will reappear when the phones ship. So, I hope I get a Credit Card charge notice today.

Mine doesn't show up in my fedex account either but I can track it so I added it.
 
iPhone 7 Plus Black 128 GB

I got in about 15 minutes before midnight and had my order submitted within a few minutes. I've seen no movement since I placed the order that night. It went from processing to preparing to ship almost immediately.

Also, I have 9/22-9/29 for estimated ship dates. I wonder why mine is a day sooner than most.

Dude, don't let your car insurance lapse for a phone.

People need to set their priorities straight. I camped out for the iPhone 5 four years ago, and I remember this obnoxious dude in front of me that wouldn't shut up about how he gets a new iPhone every year. Oh yeah, and he'd been unemployed for the past year. How does that even work?
