People seem to be forgetting that although the deliver by date is changing (mine was the 20-22 anyway), the dispatched date remains at 6-8 days which means the phone will not dispatch until next friday at the earliest. All this changing address will not make a bit of difference!

Is the 6-8 days timeframe not counted from the date of order? If so this would mean dispatched on Monday?
 
Not saying I've been bumped up, I've probably been on 20-22 Sep all the time. I agree that it probably just updated the display.

Same phone as you exactly. Just added my county to the shipping address, I was so worried it would add a delay, but after you said this I had to try it... IT WORKED! 20th! :D but this makes me wonder why Apple didn't just update the delivery date anyway? Odd behaviour by their status software
[doublepost=1473896618][/doublepost]Francis did this. ;)

...oh no - don't start with Francis again!!!
:rolleyes::D

Oh well. Changing the county on my apple order 128 plus black had no effect on my Oct 4-10 delivery (Hampshire)
I don't think anyone who has delivery 4 - 10 October has had changes yet? I haven't. Maybe in a week or so there will be changes?
 
Just added the country to my order of iPhone 7 plus 128gb Matt black and delivery has also changed from 27th to Delivers: 20 Sep - 22 Sep by Standard Shipping

Confirmation of order was 8:09

Anyone think this is actually the date will get it or some sort of bug on their site?



Hey, perhaps if I also add the country to my order, it may bump up my delivery date from 20-22nd Sept, to tomorrow 16th Sept!!!!!!
:p

This ^

Nobody is stupid enough to think we've been bumped as hinted in a post above.

We've probably been moved early on like a lot of others (although we couldn't see the change reflected) or the date was wrong to start with and triggering a change in details caused the display to refresh properly.

Either way, it's a win!
 
Anyone in the UK who's chosen the pickup route received a notification yet or seen anything else apart from "Processing Items"?

It's 0915 in the UK (Thursday) and last night a user who lives in Australia said his phone was ready for pickup and it was 0615 on Thursday morning over there then.

I'm in the same boat at the moment. Might not change until tomorrow morning tbh... I guess it depends on when the store receives them and when they're allocated.

I'm beginning to wonder if the people who have had their dates move forward (like me), all had 27th to 29th delivery allocated and maybe the folks (like you) on 4th-10th October won't see a change (yet)...

...the sign outside the CPW on London Bridge Walk, where I pass on my daily commute each day, had the following sign in the window this morning:

iPhone 7 Available Here on Friday 16th September'16, 8:01am.

If anyone hasn't got a pre-order in anywhere else and are in the area tomorrow morning, I suggest you get your butts down there, sharpish!!!!

I would genuinely rather not get mine tomorrow, than buy from someone like CPW.

I think they are scammers and now that they are part of the bloody Dixons, Curreys/PCW gang, there's no chance I would ever give them my hard earned cash.

Perhaps it's due to the courier. Texts have been sent for DPD and U.Kmail but not UPS. Maybe ours are being delivered by UPS?

Or maybe it's by area?
I dont think UPS text out do they?

Also, I don't think you get a 1 hour window with them, just a delivery date.

Has anyone with a Jet Black Plus got a delivery date of before 4-10th October? Don't think I've seen anyone yet

My JB 7 plus 256gb is scheduled 26th Sept to 3rd Oct. Confirmation email was 08:08. Tried the address change, but I got an error. Must be that the watch is Preparing For Dispatch

It'll be by a load of different factors, and people absolutely should not be getting their knickers all twisted about it at this stage.

It could be the sequence in which orders are placed.

It could be the sequence in which parcels are loaded onto a pallet.

It could be the sequence in which pallets are loaded onto a trailer.

It could be the sequence in which messages are processed by one of the many systems between the actual distribution and you.

It could be completely random.

Stop worrying, people. This is a complex operation.

I'd imagine yours was allocated from the launch pool so you will be getting your notification soon. I'm the bloke from Australia who got the notification last night. Went straight from processing order to pickup. Don't think they will give any shipping information because, as someone else said, that's an easy way to get a containter or iPhones stolen.
