All right,
Apple also clearly announced that there would be NO iPhone 7 Plus devices available in the stores on launch day. Not sure they could have been more clear about that.

Did they annouce that on the 7th ?i don't remember that part.if so you think they would have gave those idiots that camped out for a week 100$gift cards.they announced that the 24 hrs. Before the phone went on sale in the store
I am not telling any one how to feel. But regardless, Apple gave you an estimated delivery date at the time you pre-ordered your phone... and they beat that estimate.
Yeah I posted the wrong version of the screenshot. That's what I get for trying to do it while on a phone at work.
Okay, let's agree to disagree. Can we? Surely this isn't worth anyone's time to reply to. No one is changing their opinion either way.
Apple and ups both quoted me a delivery date that has now been past.regardless what date they originally said on order processing email preorder night

All these people who talk about us getting our phones "earlier" than expected are not getting it. Apple puts phones on sale at 3am est. Like many others I put my order in as soon as store takes my order, and get Sept 9th date, but then it kicks me out and says it couldn't verify my eligibility via AT&T. It's then 3:13 by the time I complete my order. Get Oct 4th to Oct 10th dates. Those dates are padded just like every year. I've gotten November dates before and still gotten it on launch.
I don't think most of us are mad about not having it on launch. It's all this other crap that's making us so livid. Once you get a shipment notification you expect your delivery in a reasonable time. Since UPS said the 21st, that's the date I go by. I wasn't crazy when they switched the date to the 22nd. I only became upset with the constraint lies and lack of information. Compounding the issue is locking up our eligibility so we can't even cancel and buy something else until the phone gets returned to Apple, and the fact that many people who didn't wake up in the middle of the night were able to make reservations and walk out with the same phones we were told were 2-3 weeks away from being delivered. So forgive me if I don't congratulate Apple for a successful launch because I will get my phone before Oct 4th... if I have it by then.
Again. Another that didn't understand that Apple said 4-10. But they also said in their shipping 23.
I'm not mad at all about the missed date today. The communication of both companies was terrible.
Got the same email. Mine left Alaska @3pm. Hopefully headed towards Hawaii. May have to spend the weekend in KY before it gets to enjoy the beach but I can wait till Monday!
At the end of the day, the shipment email will outrank the original preorder email. Yes all of us did get 10/04-10/10 but once shipment notification was given those dates were nullified and gone. So at that point you have to go off of what's most recently given to you. At my place of employment, I can't tell someone one thing and then change it and then try to go back to what I originally said. That's like if you go to Walmart and an item was originally $1 but it went on sale for $0.50 but you get to the register and the cashier says "oh that's $1". You're gonna say "umm no the sign says $0.50". Guess what price you're getting it for? So I don't blame people for being upset. One shipping date was advertised to them and they didn't get what was advertised to them. False advertisement would piss you off too.
Damn, really. This thread is mostly a bunch of pretty cool people. You have your opinion on how we should feel...ok, we got it. Most of us have enjoyed our "time" together here (for a lack of a better word). We get that you disagree with our frustration on how things have gone.
If you don't like to read/listen to what we have to say....leave the thread. Simple.

Not that I actually think I'm getting my phone tomorrow, but I have 2 horses still in the race. Flight arriving at 6:32 to JFK or the 6:19 flight getting into Newark Liberty. I can't imagine everything lining up correctly to make that happen but it is logistically possible. I just think with so few flights leaving Louisville when we would all need them to, Apple and UPS will just deliver Monday.
Yea I have the feeling Apple and UPS will take the easier route and just deliver Monday. When in reality, they could get many of us our phones tomorrow if they wanted to
You guys are lucky you have Apple Stores in your country. Where I live, there will be no such privilege or compensation cos there's no Apple Store here.
You know most of all ordered in anticipation in getting sooner regardless of the original estimated ship date? You must be new here.
I've been scoping out this thread for updates and to compare notes. Never thought I'd come back to find some tool white-knighting for a multinational company and playing thought police for people that are venting their frustration. Maybe chill out.
