These Verizon reps know nothing. Just finished a chat with one. This is what he said:
Rep: It will arrive to you on the exact day that your email listed and to date the iPhone 7 has been pre ordered over 7 million times. The Date will not change and you will be one of the First to receive this awesome new phone. We're currently in the shipping dates for the 10 of February.
Shipping dates in Feb? Don't believe that for a second because I'm looking at the Verizon site right now and the dates show 10/5, 10/12, etc. (I'm curious to see how accurate any of our ship dates/expected delivery dates are once the shipping actually begins).

The lack of 7 Plus shipping appears to be a trend across all carriers.
That trend suggests a prearranged ship date, not necessarily a dearth of units available.
I'd be concerned if sporadic units were shipping from carriers in enough volume to suggest there will be some hurt feelings come Friday.

That's what I'm starting to come to terms with, just give me an official ship date and I'm cool
Son of a Bitch. I was looking at this and then receive a email from Verizon! Got excited opened it up to find it had was Just informing me that transformers are back!! lol.
Shipping dates in February, What! Geez the iPhone 7/7+ is selling way better then anyone expected if that is the case.
have you looked at verizon lately new preorders are the whole way back to thanksgiving for shipments lol
So I just got off the phone with a Verizon CS rep, and I myself have a date of 9/23 for my 7+ 256gb Black, he pulled up the iPhone 7's shipping schedule and for all pluses they have shipment of 10/05 because they simply do not have enough, they have a bunch of 7's but not enough Pluses to meet demand right now. But gen did say anything can happen, it all depends on when they receive the phones. But he was assured that most if not all will not receive their pluses on 9/16. He was a cool rep and really dug up all the info he could.
Yea but how much info does he have! Apple don't share that info with them I don't think.
i don't believe that for a second. their website still shows 10/05 for delivery. They would have TONS of pissed off people if they didn't honor that.
They don't care cause all they'll say is nothing was processed and that they never said they would ship on launch day
Post proof! I ordered the Optimus Prime and a very good friend of mine high up in verizon said they are back ordered until 2021.

I guffawed so hard I choked on my bacon
until launch day gets here I'm going to try and hold hope they are shipping some pluses, i remember when i walked in to get my wife's iPhone 6 two years ago the reps at the store told me that they were only giving the pluses for folks who preordered, i know its different this go round but i can't believe Verizon is equipped to handle the level of frustration this weekend thats going to come with no one getting an iPhone plus, those phones are going to be tied up for weeks if that happens
it appears that across the board all carriers will not or have not shipped any plus models of any color or size....
To be honest, No Verizon authorized Retailers are last on the list to get phones. If you are looking at other store then Verizon corporate stores and apple stores then look at Best Buy, Costco and Sams Club.
I hope apple will have some Jet Black 7+ at their stores for walk-ins on launch day or within the next day or 2 after launch day then I will just cancel my pre-order with Verizon and go there.
I'm off at midnight Thuesday/Friday so maybe I'll pack a sleeping bag and drive straight up lolthe only way to get iphone right now is camping out apple store.

But if you want a Jet Black 7+, Apple store probably are going to get very few if any.
I want my phone as much as the next guy, but I don't get this thinking.. When you ordered (at least I am presuming since I have yet to see anyone say they were promised the 16th) you were given the date of the 23rd. Seems to me that they knew they weren't going to have any for launch. When I saw the date of the 23rd, I didn't believe for a moment I would have it this Friday.
