In the same boat, mate. Hoping for movement today!

During the night, Verizon attempted to bill my CC but VISA put a hold on it for security reasons. I didn't get that notification until 5:30 this morning and completed payment with my debit card. I have confirmed that payment was made and processed but my 9/23 date hasn't changed and I haven't received any shipping notification. I hope VISA didn't cause me to miss 9/16.
 
What Phone color and size please

Mine too. What state are you in? I'm IN IA.... I wonder if how they fills these is not only by place in line, but if geography plays a part too? That's the only explanation I can come up with as to why some people who ordered 1.5 hours after I did and have the same phone, have shipping information and I'm still stuck at 9/23 and no cc charge

Hoping for more updates later! My 128GB black Plus has yet to have any movement.....

Just chatted with a rep and explained the frustration. Got a super snarky response about how the current ship dates are into October and I'll still receive my phone a month before that. Yeah, I understand that the CURRENT ship dates are into October but how are others with the same orders, same time, same phone, everything.....getting shipping info?
 
I ordered the 256Gb JB Plus! Got nothing so far and its driving me crazy! however i see lot of people that had the same deliver by date as mine get moved to launch day, Crossing my fingers

Same order here, hoping the same!
 
Just to give anyone who is still waiting an idea...
I ordered my Rose Gold 7+ 128 GB 40 mins after launch. My card was charged last night and I received my tracking number around 3 am. The tracking number began working around 9 am. I live in Chicago and my phone originally stated it would deliver 9/28 but according to FedEx it will be at my door on launch day, 9/16 by 4 PM. Hope that helps anyone!

I'm not sure how to read that but it looks like those flights will arrive in KY tonight around midnight? So maybe we'll hear something then or tomorrow morning...


yes stating around Midnight! they be in so hoping that is true and its jet black! 256GBS
 
3:16 128 matte Plus still not shipped/charged. Chat CSR told me not to hold my breath, so to speak. They said the roll out is not tied to location, but strictly to order time. They also said it could be related to the fact I ordered a 2nd phone, a non-plus 128 matte.
 
I am also not seeing any 32gb models shipped. I ordered a 32 gb black, and nothing g so far. What

same here, nothing yet. ship date posted for me was 9/28 even though i had my order in within 20 minutes of the site working.

I am in ia too. Ordered a 32gb black. Nothing yet for me. What people should realize is that there are hundreds of people working on this. It's not like one guy is filling all the orders and keeping them perfectly in order. If you have that many people grabbing phones and shipping them out, your never going to keep all the orders in order of who ordered when. Also when you mix in the fact that the phones probably come in in color or six specific pallets, it'd be very in efficient to be running around like a chicken wi th it's head cut off trying to find what phone goes when and where. I bet they're just shipping as many phones as they can as fast as they can. It'd be much more efficient that way. We will all get our phones faster that way....

Sorry if I've missed this in the thread (trying to keep up and do some work...boo) but have any 7+ golds shipped yet? I'm waiting on notice for a 128gb.

From my understanding the system goes by order time. They scan the phone box and the computer system assigns the phone to a order. They don't manually do anything in the computer.
 
So I have had a pending $1 charge on my AmEx all week since I purchased (around 9 a.m. CST on 9/9). Today, I checked, as I have been doing, to see if my total amount was billed. There is no pending or posted charges from Verizon on my AmEx at all now. Should I be worried about this?

My check order status still says the same as it has (expected ship date of 9/28) even though it said 9/16 during my checkout.

Btw, it's a 7+ 32GB Black.

There are probably several hubs across the nation that are filling orders now that the stock has been received from Apple. The phones that must hit the system and in fedex hands by tonight to get there by Friday are probably top priority. After that it doesn't make sense to me why they would go by color other then the fact that the pallets are all one color and they just go pallet by pallet filling orders. At the factory the different colors probably go down different production lines. This still doesn't answer the question as to why no 256gb phones have been reported shipped.
