How long is it usually in "We've received you order"? My dumb self accidentally ordered my phone with my sister's phone number because she had me ordering hers for her as well. I just need to cancel it and reorder it.
 
I seem some people preparing for shipment already maybe mines in Harrisburg pa 1 hr away maybe it's in Harrisburg PA already

No one will see their before the 16th. Even if they are shipped and I doubt that very much, the carrier has orders to not deliver to the customer until the 16th.

Just sit back and relax as your status will not change till next week. When you see your CC charged then shipping in very soon after.

If you ordered an accessory like a case from Apple you will get that sooner. BUT not the phone till the 16th. Do not let the accessory shipment fool you in thinking it is your phone!
 
My order for 7+/256/Matte Black showed a date of Sep 27-29. I paid using ApplePay. My CC has already been authorized for the full purchase price. Still shows same date and processing stage.

Not sure if the charge went through immediately or not, but I suspect with applepay it does.

There have been instances in the past where people did receive theirs a day early but it was extremely rare - no one should expect that.
I believe last year, mine said "processing order" right up to a day or so before it delivered on launch. It just takes time for their system to update every order status. Keep in mind, besides phones, people are ordering watches (especially this year) and a myriad of other items as normally happens daily so add all of those orders to all of the pre-order stuff - it's a ton of volume to process and I'm sure they try to level load their severs.

My understanding is that Apple buy server time from places like Amazon or Google.

Yes some of the AT&T phones were delivered a day early last year. Like you I do not expect that to happen often, I bet Apple told them to not let it happen again.
 
I'm sure they were PO'd haha
Made for a few thrilled customers though. I wonder how many weren't expecting it early so weren't home to sign for it? :D
 
I'm usually not worried about it, but I used Apple Pay to buy and though the billing address is all correct, the name was billed to my shortened first name instead of my full first name and I'm not sure if that is going to affect whether or not my charge goes through. I still don't see the charge pending on Chase.
 
My status is now Preparing to Ship - I was assigned a phone number - same date range 9/23-9/30
 
Yes. Preordered 7+ 128 matte black through Apple using ATT next. Mine is still in processing stage. Had to contact Apple to change the address which was very easy.

Will they ship mine to the address on the at&t account like I did last year for the 6s plus? I'm in Lehigh valley pa.
