I went for 128GB iPhone 7+ Matte Black, Ordered on sunday (2pm) est. Friday 7th october (3 weeks tomorrow.) However I'm hoping its an overestimate by 5 days or so. It's so annoying knowing if EE didnt cock up I would've gotten my phone tomorrow. The Three contract is cheaper & unlimited data + highest average 4G speeds so guess they saved my ass actually
Ordered a black 32GB 7 and a black 128GB 7+ around 10 on Friday. Was quoted the 16th for the 7 and the week after for the 7+. I was put through to accounts as my bank queried the second payment for the 7+ so soon after the first. The chap told me both were good to go for the 16th. I've since had no text or email as I was told I would on Friday. I have since spoken via web chat (last night) and was told that I'd receive both tomorrow. Fingers crossed!
Three have confirmed that they have not received any Jet Black 7+ in any size. for the 256GB they are stating 4th November
Just spoke to 3 five minutes ago as received no text / order / delivery details ect Ordered the Jet black 128gb on Friday 9th around 0840 just been told the stock has been pushed back to 4th Oct great comms by 3 ordered now cancelled got a Black to collect from EE in the morning at 9am ....Bye Bye 3
Got my 16th confirmation dispatch email
128gb matte black
When did you place your order?
Ordered a 128GB iPhone 7 Plus in (Matte) Black, as an upgrade, sometime just before 9:41am on 9th.
I was given an expected delivery date of 30th Sept, but told there was a possibility of it being delivered at the latest on 14th Oct.
I didn't receive a confirmation text message, so I called up the next day and was told everything had gone through fine. I was then quoted a 30th Sept date only.
I haven't received a text from Three about delayed shipment of the model I have chosen. Yet.

If I was guessing they were not able make enough stock and knew it. That's why they are not releasing the numbers sold for the preorders. Overall tho if your ordering a new colour they have always been in really high demand just like the white,gold,rose were back when they were released.
I think I'll give Three a call to check my estimated delivery date tomorrow, if I don't receive this unfortunate text message everyone's getting.
Which iPhone model/configuration did you guys pre-order, just out of curiosity?

I spoke to three on twitter earlier they said I'd still get it by 7th October (said I didnt have a delivery date on my email lol) - but I ordered Sunday, so hopefully people who preordered on Friday & are getting the same phone well before I do (128gb matte black 7+)
I pre-ordered the exact same model. I was told that it would be here in Late October.
BTW, is the 16/9 a typo? Since it's only the 15th!
Haha yes sorry ordered 9/9 for 16/9 did you order that day too??I pre-ordered the exact same model. I was told that it would be here in Late October.

Haha, it's okay. And no, sadly, I only ordered on the 13/9.
Anyways, I'm just hoping that I'll get the phone, I don't really care whether it's Late September, or Mid October. Lol
Going by all these delays, I might be better off just going down to a sim only deal for a while...
Is it just the 7 Plus phone that are having all the issues?
