Roll call - Oct. 4th - Oct. 10th original ship date

Suuuurrrrreeee. This was from an email I sent ups earlier today. Ha, whatever.

Still tracking my wife's phone which was actually in the Sept 23-27 batch. These 11:00 and 11:39 departure scans seem odd. There are no UPS flights at all any where near that timeframe, and there are very few flights headed to the United States. *insert squinty faced DiCaprio picture here*

Well now I get to join the hiss-gate thread. My iPhone 7+ definitely has a buzz noise when you put your ear up to the back....and you can hear it in videos. Ugh....

Now I am curious to go listen to my 6s Plus and see if I hear anything....boo

Also part of the #801crew that just got the 11 AM local scan out of Korea. Progress is good but I'm also questioning whether they are delayed scans given the differing stories (from both Apple and UPS) and generally questionable release to date. In any case I'm hoping for one of two scenarios, (1) it's already stateside and just catching up to scans which means delivery tomorrow which is what Apple told me would happen or (2) it truly just left Korea and Apple will do what's right and upgrade us all to Saturday delivery for these phones given the delays (whether Apple or UPS pays for that extra service is between them and their "policies"). Good luck everyone, hopefully it's a happy Friday for all of us in Korea/China purgatory the past few days...:rolleyes:

20 minutes ago I was just told by UPS that my phone was not really in South Korea and that they scan ahead of time and that it's still going through Chinese customs... now I got a departure scan from South Korea... so they got it through customs, to South Korea, and now it's departed South Korea.... all in 20 minutes... I'm impressed.

Good grief! The apple specialist (lol oxymoron!!) claims I have a departure scan at 11:39, which I can't see yet!! Grrrrrrr. I don't know what to believe !!

I had a departure scan from Korea at 11:00am. Thing is their isn't any flight that I could find at that time which may support that the scans are being updated late and may not be accurate.
 
So I have not seen any 7plus Matte Black 128GB ATT that were ordered after 1:00 AM PST that have shipped yet. Mine was ordered at 3:45 AM PST and is still in processing. Anyone with same configurations that ordered later than 3:45 AM PST that have moved past processing?

My fiancé's Rose Gold 128 GB ATT that was ordered at 7:30 AM PST and had original delivery window of 9/23-9/27 was delivered on 9/20.

So looks like #801Crew is now #11DepartureCrew. Just got off live chat with UPS and they said this departure scan shows that the package is now en route to Louisville, Kentucky. Not sure how much I believe it, but we'll see.

Can their planes fly all the way from Korea to Louisville without refueling?

I just tweeted this to UPS...

"iPhone 7+ shipment delayed for days in Korea due to “severe whether” - its mostly sunny there with 0% precipitation. What’s up @UPS?"

and got this reply across 5 tweets from @UPSHELP within a few seconds...

"We apologize for this scan. Your package have not been delayed. Upon,...

further scans our system will self-correct and provide a Scheduled Delivery Date.

At this time, the actual scheduled delivery date is not known until the

shipments actually arrive in the U.S. We encourage you to utilize Notify me with Updates on

to receive free text or email alerts on your shipment. ^LG"

For what it's worth.

They've got one or more pallets full of $1000 iPhones and they really don't know where they are and when they'll get to where they're going?

It sounds like no one wants to bother actually doing some legwork, so they're just saying "just wait until it shows up somewhere."
 
Ordered :30 day of pre-orders and still in processing. Anyone stuck in proccessing and tired of waiting I recommend checking stock throughout the day. I noticed a few stores around had them in stock off and on. I was able to find and order a 7+ 128GB at&t MB for in store pickup tomorrow. I was on hold for 10 minutes waiting to cancel my previous order but after that I was home free! No more waiting......assuming everything goes as planned tomorrow!

I hope we get our phones tomorrow or Saturday. At 8PM tomorrow, I will call Apple and see if they can comp a case. As it is, I have credit at Best Buy but they don't have any cases I like in stock.

This is my phone too. I'm in the #801crew and now #11departure. Original delivery was 10/4-10/10 and moved to the 9/23 date. I guess we'll see.

A nonstop flight from Incheon to Louisville would take approximately 14 hours, so the earliest they could get there (if they actually did leave around 12:00 on a super secret flight) is around 1:00 PM EDT 9/23
