Don't feel bad bro. In reality the pre order system is great. I got my iPhone 6 day one but when I decided to return it for the 6+ it was a 3-4 week wait. Remember you chose a really rare iPhone. Trust me when you get that black box take it to the Apple Store to set it up and you will see the other customers freak out when they see your black box because chances are they never saw the black box before. I'm serious.
Bro I love the way you make it look like a "Magic Lamp" i mean after waiting so much you still are quite positive.Yeah I'll take it to the apple store and people are gonna be like "Oooo black box ah what inside" I'm gonna be like the fruit of my patienceAnyways got off the phone with apple seems like as my delivery date is Oct5th-12 my phone might be delivered around 10th maybe thats why it's processing the rep didn't have the answer but all she asked me to do is wait and call if it's still processing around 2nd or 3rd of October!!!

T-mobile customers have no choice, they have to order from carrier website. I can't go to apple store or order through apple website. Apple only allows Verizon, Sprint and AT&T customers doing carrier installments.

I read somewhere that, that was actually T-mobile's doing. They wanted to push their customers and new customers to go through them for their deals vs. going through Apple. I'll have to see if I can find that article again. Seems kind of silly to turn away a channel for potential customers to do business with you over the long term just because you want a little more additional revenue from the sale of a phone.
I'm a T-Mobile customer and I have no issues getting the phone. You should be able to do it too.

I do understand the monthly payment part will be hard to accomplish. But if you really want the iPhone badly I do suggest using PayPal.

I guarantee what will happen is that you will get your iPhone around the 12th while I get mine maybe around the 10th since they gave us those days as the latest days to get the deliveries since they seem to really be struggling with making these iPhones. But you better believe that I'm hope I'm wrong.

Hey, Blamey McBlame-a-lot, did I say I canceled the preorder I placed online? No? Huh. Why, it's almost like you skipped reading what I wrote, and jumped straight to saying AT&T's screwing was all my fault. Funny that.
Damn i was waiting for Oct 5 since i ordered damn will have to wait longer,I just hope we get it earlier bro!!!

I order through T-mobile website and my status says being processed. I prefer doing monthly payment with them than paying full price at apple store. I am not the only customer waiting for iPhone 7 to arrive but many T-mobile customers facing the same issues. Some of them iPhone 7's will be ship late November to early December. All of the pre-order shipments will be late.
Any updates for T-Mobile people?
I preordered mine 9/9 at 12:11. Expected ship date of 9/27 to 10/24
Still "Being Processed" and it's pretty disappointing.
Called T-mobile today and no definitive answer, just saying the same stuff that's written on the order status page.
No charge on my card at all or any updates whatsoever.
I just want my phone 🙁
iPhone 7 plus JB 128gb
Switching from ATT to T-Mobile. Not really sure what to expect from here on out.

Same situation except my iPhone 7 is gold not matte black or jet black. I don't why gold iPhone 7 taking that long to be shipped. I understand 7+'s and JB can take that long. T-mobile customer representive have no clues about shipment date.
St. Louis here.

Well, just got a FedEx shipping number but right now it shows nothing but this is so much more than the past two weeks. Hooray, me!
You also didn't fully read my response to you. I was saying you did well by doing your early preorder. Only that at all costs never trust a carrier Store.
[doublepost=1475016522][/doublepost]
Also I blamed myself for almost missing out on a iPhone 6 because I trusted a girl at a t-mobile Store. Never again bro will I trust a carrier store to get me a new iPhone ASAP. Preorder at Apple Store all the way!

Bro you will see yourself with that black box before you know it! I will keep you updated on my dilemma as well lol!

Ugh, I wish mine would have gone FedEx. UPS sucks! Mine shipped Saturday and has sat in China ever since. Looks like it will be here Friday...

Awsome bro congrats! Hehe mine still doesn't exist yet lmao! It's still in processing mode!
You are not alone i'm here with you though our phones are far apart always in our heart.PROCESSING!!!
Fate can be weird my friend! Wouldn't it be strange if our phones were made right next to each other on that rotating gizmo with our names on them? Bro I won't be surprised if we both get those words we yearn to read: "Preparing for Shipment" on the same day? Something tells me our day will be in the next two days. 🙂

Same situation here for me man. I did preorder an iPhone 7 plus in jet black t-mobile phone and my wife as well ordered her silver 7 plus directly from t-mobile and promised her a nov 1 delivery. This launch in my opinion is a disaster for us.
You are absolutely right bro!!!I hope,wish and pray that we get the "Shipped" notification in the next few days I mean both of us will be like finally thank god.The excitement level will be unbelievable
It has to be really soon! Come to think of it it will be 3 weeks this Friday since the preorder.
