I guess I have a ways to go. You're 2.5 hours BEFORE my order. So, you've seen no action at all, still processing?

Yep! I've been in processing hell since pre-orders started. While others that have either ordered around the same time I did or maybe a few minutes ahead have gotten their cards charged and in shipment mode. And I've had no luck and my current Apple Store and AT&T stores too. Smh

Albany Apple store is AWFUL!! Takes forever to get anything done there, it's extremely over crowded, and they never have inventory on new stuff. I've been to many apple stores, and the Albany one is the worst I've seen.

It'll be the last Apple store on the planet to have walk in availability of the iPhone 7 and plus.
 
128GB ATT matte black from Apple Store app, 9/9 at 3:47 EDT (I assume those saying EST mean EDT).
Can everyone post their email confirmation times? I was a little late with my order because I figured it wouldn't matter too much...boy was I wrong.

Looks like most of us here are ATT 7+ MB 128GB. I figured the JB would be more popular...guess not. Judging by all of you that ordered before me and are still processing, I guess I should calm down and have some patience.
 
I did get an email from Apple that my payment was declined by Wells Fargo. I followed their instructions immediately and got the payment unblocked and then submitted it again. 1 hour later, it showed up on my bank statement, and the status changed from processing to PFS. Later that night (Sunday) it changed back to processing. The charge is still on my bank statement. The delivery date actually changed from Oct 3-7 to Oct 4-10 when it went back to processing too.

This is exactly what happened to me.
 
Matte Black 7+ 128gb AT&T 9/9 XX:15.

My order bumped from 10/4-10/10 2-3 weeks to 9/30-10/6 2-3 weeks, then slipped back to 10/4-10/10 the next day.

My card was charged on 9/17 and went from Processing to PFS. The next day on 9/18 it went back to Processing and hasn't moved since.

[doublepost=1474465295][/doublepost]wow. I just checked my bank account and the charge went from posted back to pending... wtf is happening? It's as if they're reversing my order step by step...

I got my email at 2:32 CST. 128GB matte black 7 + paid in full for use on the AT&T network.

I ordered from the Apple Store website. The last few times I used the app, but it hung up on me this year.
 
I see lots of people getting their phones at an Apple Store and then cancelling. My nearest Apple Store is 300 miles away, so it is almost impossible for me to do so, and that's Dallas which means they are way busy and overcrowded. I am stuck waiting for my preorder, and I have a feeling that my 10/4-10/10 date is going to be accurate this year. Never thought being 4.5 hours past preorder open would mean I would have to wait a month for my new phone. Oh well... First World Problems.

I'm on the same boat, can't go to my local store because although they're near by, they're full to the point of being scary and the obvious lack of inventory applies. I'll just be happen that I'm beginning of October and not late or early November.
 
K, now I'm getting pissed. A coworker got the SAME phone as me delivered just now and they ordered the day after preorders went live. But through the carrier rather than the Apple Store. Mine is still stuck in processing. Sigh sigh
 
Update: 48 hours since mine has gone to preparing for shipment; my credit card still shows a pending charge for the phone from Apple dated Sept 18.

Original delivery date Oct 7-13

Order date Sept 14
 
Two 7+ matte black 128gb AT&T (apple.com)
Email 9/9 xx:41 and xx:45
Both are still processing
10/4-10/10 later changed by Apple rep to 9/30-10/6 by adding expedited shipping.

Matte Black 128gb AT&T via Apple.com (2:20 am EST) - Still processing - Paid for using IUP. 10/4 - 10/10, I would like the phone before 10/5 since ill be traveling that day.

I've been monitoring istock.com website all morning and a Matte Black 128gb Verizon model is available at my local store. I reserved it and will hopefully be picking up the phone today and canceling my pre-order. I'm just going to buy the phone outright since I cant use the IUP on a Verizon phone since I'm an AT&T customer.

I know it's a trek, but Victor (Rochester) seems to be getting them with some regularity. Grabbed one today.
 
I have a bad feeling that since the wave before us may at this point get delivery on Monday (UPS seems like a massive disaster for some reason) we may not see any movement until the end of the week......but god help me I hope I'm wrong lol
 
This is infuriating.

The model I want is available at a nearby Apple Store, yet I can't reserve it via AT&T Next because presumably my other order already registered with AT&T so I cannot choose that method for upgrade.
[doublepost=1474476614][/doublepost]welp, nevermind, sold out in front of my face. just my luck.
