Just out of curiosity, has anyone actually received a tracking number for an iPhone 7 Plus matte black 256gb yet?
 
Guess no one will be getting a phone if haven't gotten a tracking number yet. Oh well. Guess I'll head to my local Best Buy and deal with a bunch of good looking amateur sales associates. lol
 
Alexa V.: I'd like to share that the deliveries of the new phone have started and very soon you shall receive yours too.
Alexa V.: I've also notated your account for the shipping to be expedited.
You: ok so it hasn't been shipped yet?
Alexa V.: Nope but it will be very soon.
You: ok thank you
Alexa V.: You're most welcome.
Alexa V.: Is there anything else I can assist you with today?
You: nope
Alexa V.: Have a Good Night, Sweet Dreams and do take very very good care of yourself and your loved ones.






They've resorted to comforting us now.

I saw your post and tested it to see what they'd tell me. You're totally right. They're just talking sweet now to get us to go away.

Alexa V.: Your order might be on your way.
Alexa V.: Fingers Crossed

Oh man, for a brief moment she made me feel special..
 
Well now that you've given me the idea.... :D

I do now! Thanks

Also anyone have any idea what part of the day they should arrive? I'm sure it's highly, highly variable but figured I'd ask anyway.

I remember getting my iPhone 6 Plus at 11 am EST
 
Someone please tell me about those Sprint miracles where people receive their phones launch day without getting tracking information until the day of.
 
I've been wanting to cancel for a really long time. It's not just because of this whole iphone issue.
The waiting 5 hours on chat support, for them to tell me to call is what pissed me off, because I wasn't even chatting about the iphone. It was originally about them saying I never paid, when I had my receipt. & Why my bill says past due, when it's not due til the 25th.

So then when I FINALLY get to the 4th person on chat support, I asked to cancel my services and they can't because I just placed an order...

an order that won't ship until the 30th. Soooo i should have been able to cancel the order.

You may have to contact order support to cancel.

Yeah. I'm gonna go in store once I receive my phone to cancel. That way there aren't any issues with returning the phone.

Guess I'm not getting the phone today after all. It is literally at UPS 30 minutes away since last night. Delivery was scheduled today, but now it says Monday. Why?! Any chance they just messed up, and it's still delivered today?

This is common. You wouldn't know until around 9AM. By then you'll know if it made on the truck.

Don't get how it wouldn't make the truck. Been there since 10PM. I've had a package there at 5AM and go on the 9AM truck. Just frustrating because it's been scheduled for today up until like 5 hours ago.
 
My 6plus has no visible cracks on the screen. However, periodically throughout the the day the touch screen will not work and lines may briefly appear at the top. After a few minutes it returns back to normal condition. Will I still be able to return this device when my 7/return kit comes or will they charge me for it? I've been debating if I should press my luck. Because I really don't want to pay the remaining $250 to buy it.

Buy it and trade it in toward your lease. $27/month for 18 months is $486 in credits. The phone will be pretty much free.
 
Ugh, UPS is really horrible. Apparently it arrived in the right city since last night at 10, but it's not at the sorting facility. Apparently it knows when it gets to the city? This driver has an extremely long route apparently. And looks like 2nd day screwed me over too. Now I probably have to wait to Monday. Hopefully everyone else doesn't have this problem.
Unless the lady at UPS is confused. Last time I got a package here it said arrived at the same city (and was at the sorting place) she said it says "delivered" when it gets to the sorting facility. Apparently it knows when it gets to the right sorting city and then it updates when it gets to the sorting place in the same city?
