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

One more ATT trade-in question. Does anyone know if take advantage of the trade in deal are you agreeing to a 24 or 30 month contract?

To simply trade in a device for credit doesn't mean you're getting into a new financial installment plan (if I understand what you're saying).

For example, my wife and I had our iPhone 6 Pluses paid off as of last month. We are therefore month-to-month regarding any financial obligations. We are also not trading in our phones for the 7 Pluses I've preordered. Instead, we'll initiate a new installment plan at device activation. At 12 months, we'll then trade in our 7 Pluses for the next phone in 2017, which then would begin a new installment plan.
 
I used my upgrade to preorder using next every year and have a ship date of oct 14-21 (128gb jet black 7 plus). Could I go to the apple store this friday instead and still purchase using next every year or will the system already take it as I upgraded and only have the ability to purchase it at full msrp?
 
Well I preordered my iPhone 7 plus Rose Gold 128gb 10 minutes after preorders started. My shipping date has been September 16th from the beginning but I just checked online and it's now backordered but still shows the estimated delivery to be September 16th. Meanwhile my fiancé who ordered his matte black 32gb plus 30 minutes after preorders began had a shipping window of September 30-October 7 got his shipping notification today and will be receiving his phone Friday.
 
I mean we can all do this if all fails....

Here's a sad story for me. I went and tried to lookup my iPhone tracking info from UPS using reference number of my phone number, and saw this:

But then I realized it was my APPLE WATCH (White Ceramic)! So it was a bittersweet moment; sad it wasn't the iPhone but happy my watch would be here on Friday.

Anyone know what AT&T uses for the reference number for FedEx or UPS? Is it the long order number 21-XXXX? Is it the wireless number assigned to the phone? Anyone know?

Thanks :)

I'm in the same boat as you. My card has been charged though. I'm hoping it comes on launch day, but if it doesn't there's not much I can do.

If it's charged, it's most likely ready to ship. If past is prologue, tomorrow you'll get the alert about a shipping label being generated and that it's waiting to be picked up.

So I have been reading this thread since post #1 and it has given me plenty of minutes, I mean hours, of enjoyment. My AT&T 2 years was always up within a week of any new iPhone release (not counting 'S' editions) and always pre-ordered via Apple; however, I decided to go with the AT&T p-o this time. I p-o'd a 7+/128/matte black at 3:03am Friday morning and have a 9/23-9/30 shipping window. Now that I've got that out of the way, I have a question for anyone with higher capacity iPhones. I ordered the + because of the camera, I used to be a surfing photographer and currently take many photos with my iP6; however, I also ordered the higher capacity because I was going to stream movies from my phone to Apple TV. I own an iPad mini 4 (I'm in school so it helps with my digital textbooks) and other than for school, I use it to stream movies from VLC app to Apple TV.

Has anyone used their phone to stream movies from an App to Apple TV (via mirroring)?

I know this is a little off topic, but figured it would be a quick diversion from the "where's my tracking" discussions.

First off, Brandon's of the world unite. ;)

Secondly, I did that to get my 6 Plus. You have to call At&T and cancel your order with them and be sure to tell them to reinstate your upgrade. They can do that on the phone right then.
 
My "pending charge" on my cc disappeared this morning and just reappeared as a real charge. Hope that's a good sign.
