Anyone with a 10/12 Ship Date have any activity?

SHADOWLC2000

I ordered the 7+ MB 128GB on 9/10, got a ship date of 10/12.

I got a little excited last week when my ship date disappeared for a few days, but its back and still sitting at 10/12. From checking the boards out, it looks like there was some movement on the 10/5 ship date last week, hoping to see some movement on the 10/12 ship date this week.

Unfortunately I'm still sitting at a 10/12 date as well. 7+ Matte Black 128GB.

Still sitting at 10/12. Ordered iPhone 7+ Black, 128gb on 9/12.

cjthedjmn56401

Same thing here. Its still just processing with ship date of 10/12, ordered 128gb 7+ Matte Black on 9/12

i ordered a 7 128 gig rose gold on 9/23. Got a ship date and of 10/12. i originally entered my daughters credit card As it is her phone. Well i got an email on 9/25 stating the credit card didn't go thru. I'm assuming it's because it was her card and not mine. So It gave me the option to enter another card. I entered my info and the card has been charged. No shipping info yet, but the card has been charged and went from pending to posted. I wish I knew if the phone was being shipped. I never got an email confirmation when my own 7+ was shipped out.

I ordered rose gold 7+ 128gb on 9/11 with a ship-by date of 10/12.

my card was charged and phone was shipped 9/23 and it is scheduled for delivery 9/27 by 4:30pm.

It's definitely coming so best of luck everyone!!

Ordered my at the local VZW store on 9/10- 128gb black 7+ The order status has consistently said October 12 for a ship date.

I just noticed one change though a couple of minutes ago- on my present device status, it said "Upgrade Phone" (for my present iPhone 6). That disappeared. I'm hoping that I'll see a credit card charge for the sales tax in a day or so, and that the new phone will be here earlier than 10/12.

There are two other phones on my account- now iPhone 7-- they came almost two weeks earlier than first estimated.

SHADOWLC2000

I just looked at mine and when it shows the overview of my phones it only shows upgrade over the 2 other lines on my account which are both eligible for upgrade. But it is not showing above mine. I'm not sure when this may have disappeared as it wasn't something I was paying attention to. However when I click on my phone it still has a icon that I can click to "upgrade".

It will be nice if they are 2 weeks ahead of schedule. Its so frustrating to see people that ordered after I did and had shipping dates after 10/12 are getting their phones already....but none of them are the same color and memory size as mine..... if I saw that I would be super pissed. It just makes me wish I would have picked a different color besides MB. I only chose that color b/c it had the earliest ship by date when I was ordering, I honestly would have been ok with any of the colors.

SHADOWLC2000

ok.... just want to rant for a minute

Why can I go to a best buy that is local to me (with in 30 mines) and get a 7+ rose gold 128GB phone but I still haven't received my pre-order of my 7+ matte black 128GB phone that I ordered on 9/10. This is a little ridiculous.

Does anyone know of any downsides to getting the phone from best buy vs. waiting for my pre-order to ship. I'm considering if I don't get notification soon that I may cancel my order and just go to best buy b/c I'm so tired of waiting.

10/12, nothing yet... iphone 7 128gb jetblack

benzz11

I haven't heard of anyone dealing with BB, Walmart, etc. I'm sure you could probably go ahead and do it without issue, but I would wait for the matte. I bet they will start shipping to us next week. By looking at the trend, they are moving up a week from their previous shipping date. I also looked at the T-Mobile and AT&T community forums, and they have it worse than we do. Looks like the majority of those users are expecting their 128GB 7+ MB late October/Early November. I'm going to guess our cards will be charged between the 3rd-5th of next week.

tiffiewuhoo

Ordered rose gold and matte black iPhone 7 (not plus) 9/14. Delivery date still says 10/12. Wish I knew phones would be delivered together if ordered together bc rose gold was supposed to deliver by 10/5. :smileysad:

Anyone get updates on matte black iPhone 7 (not plus)? Seems like some people who ordered matte black iPhone 7 + with later delivery dates already got tracking numbers! Havent heard from anyone who ordered iPhone 7 (not plus) matte black.

benzz11

Looks like AT&T customers who had an estimated ship date October 14th-21, and 21-28th on the 128GB MB 7+ received their tracking numbers this morning. They had order dates of 9/11-9/13, so it's possible Apple is gaining ground on production.

SHADOWLC2000

Still nothing over here.... I keep seeing posts that give me hope that maybe i'll see my CC charged so I check it.... then I check it again.... and again... I think by the end of the day I have checked my CC like 10-20 times.... Its a little ridiculous... I hope I'm not the only one.

And I feel like I have buyers remorse.... and I don't even have the phone yet! I keep saying to myself maybe if I ordered a different color and/or a larger storage capacity that maybe I would already have my phone in hand... And I'm kicking myself for waiting on my husband to make a decision which pushed me from ordering around 9am on the 9th to 9 am on the 10th.... #firstworldproblems

benzz11

Yeah this is pretty outrageous. The fact that you ordered two days prior to me, only a day after pre-orders began, and there hasn't been any movement for you. I also don't understand how customers who placed their orders after 9/10 - 9/12 (same size and color) are already receiving theirs. I just want to draw a smiley face on an apple logo and punch it square in the mouth

SHADOWLC2000

The hard part about reading these boards is you don't know whether people ordered from Verizon or directly from apple. I think ordering from Apple = get phone faster but you can give up some of the benefits of getting it from verizon (financing, trade in, etc).

benzz11

I don't think there is a difference where you buy it. Best Buy will connect to your carrier to process the upgrade and contract renewal. You probably won't even notice that you purchased it at BB. I think the only "downfall" to this though, is that VZW and Best Buy will most likely have different protection plans. I would definitely go to BB if they had a phone that I want, unfortunately there isn't a 7+ 128GB available within 250 miles from where I am.

ajesmore

Nope. I am waiting for my matte black 128 gig iPhone 7plus.....nothing yet. Hard to be patient when my sister (who is with another carrier that starts with "A") got her phone a week ago. Hopefully we will see some action soon!

DAVFER39

I got a text message one hour ago, and my credit card got billed. Estimate shit date dissapeared.

SHADOWLC2000

Still nothing here. Just checked my cc and no charge and my ship date is still there. Ugh I just want this f***ing think to ship.

gpounce26

No activity here. I, too, am checking my card multiple times a day and all it does is frustrate me. It seems like Apple was extremely prepared as far as stock of the 256 mb, but didn't even consider how things might be with the 128. FRUSTRATING!!!

SHADOWLC2000

I'm thinking if I don't see anything happen tonight I may just change to rose gold and find it at a local best buy. A few of them around me have them.... but the longer I have waited the further I think I have to drive.... but at this point... I think the drive would be better than driving myself crazy for the next 12 days waiting for a cc charge.

Chet-NYC1

Okay.. got a text message at 7:42pm (Eastern) tonight that my credit card had been charged and that my order was received today, October 2nd. Hopefully, I'll get a tracking number soon.

SHADOWLC2000

Just checked my cc was charged tonight too for my 7+ matte black 128gb..... I am so excited !!! Can't believe it's finally going to come

SHADOWLC2000

I also ordered on 9/10

Chet-NYC1

The credit card was charged last night and the phone shipped today. Got the tracking number this morning and I'll have the phone on Wednesday.

benzz11

Ordered my 7+ matte black 128GB on 9/12. Got nothing yet, still says Oct. 12 delivery.

gpounce26

I'm right there with you benzz11. Same exact situation-my card hasn't been charged yet or anything.

benzz11

gpounce26

Any news? I got nothing. I did see someone who ordered on 9/14 (same phone & ship by date), that got theirs already. Seems like 9/10 orders are too, but not 9/12 for some reason.

gpounce26

Nothing yet benzz11. It looks like everyone who ordered around us is processing, but no movement on ours. Of course, when I've called Verizon, they keep saying "we see the same information that you see". Its extremely frustrating.

lilyjane07

The 256 models are definitely more readily available. I ordered a matte black 7+ 256 at a Verizon store on Sunday (the 2nd), late afternoon, and I received shipping notification late last night. Only took one business day. So if you're ok with spending an extra $100 and want your phones quick I suggest switching over to the 256 size. It comes out to only $4.17 more a month.

I have two other orders still processing, ordered over the phone on 9/14 with estimated ship date of 10/12 (7+ 128 rose gold) & 10/19 (7+ 128 matte black). I'm hoping to get our phones before our trip next week.

benzz11

Yeah with my luck the 256GB will sell out when I cancel and I'm stuck with nothing. Either that or people who ordered the same day as me will get their phones processed tonight.

WILSIM64

Just received a text stating that my order was received today (10/4). Placed my order on 9/12 with a estimated ship date of 10/12. iPhone 7+ 128gb Matte Black. Ordered an iPhone 7 128gb Rose Gold on 9/9 for my wife and received the same text that the order was received on 9/18 and phone was received on 9/20. SO, I'm hoping that I'll be getting a 'SHIPPED' email tomorrow and finally get my phone on Thursday!!

Thing is, the order status page shows the order still pending. I'm going to go by the text and not the order status page....

gpounce26

My card was charged this evening and now I'm just waiting for confirmation that it has shipped. benzz11 Have you had any activity yet?

benzz11

Nope I got nothing. Verizon hates me.

gpounce26

Mine charged after 930 this evening, so I'm hoping along with you that yours will tonight or early tomorrow am.

benzz11

I'm hoping so. I guess I won't hold my breathe. I don't know if I need to leave Verizon or if I just have extremely bad luck. The last 2-3 times I've pre-ordered through Verizon I never received it by the date they listed. My watch took 4 months until I got it. I guess I'll sleep on it and hope for the best.

lilyjane07

benzz11 If you don't mind paying an extra $5 a month I strongly suggest you order the 256. I just changed another one of my orders today from mb 128gb to 256gb and got my cc charged within 2 hours of placing the order. Hoping the phone gets shipped tomorrow.

I couldn't change my other order since I was using a $200 promotional credit on my account and they couldn't apply the credit on a new order. I'll just have to wait (im)patiently for that one.

SHADOWLC2000

hopefully you all get your phones soon.

My CC was charged Sunday evening, was shipped Monday via UPS, I was able to have the package sent to the local UPS customer service center since no one would be home and my package was there before they opened at 8:30 on Tuesday morning. I went and picked it up during my lunch hour.

I'm still working on adjusting to the new phone.... lots of new stuff when upgrading from a 5c to a 7+

Thundr

My 7+ matte black 128 and 7+ rose gold 128 both ordered 9/12 (on separate orders), still showing a ship date of 10/12 on both. Come on Verizon!

benzz11

Well atleast I'm not the only one, haha. You almost have to think that Verizon is dumb enough to use a last in, first out method rather than FIFO. I surprised you're 0-2 so far on getting yours early.

gpounce26

If it makes anyone feel better, my card has been charged, and the 611 line says it has shipped-but I have no shipping information or idea of when it will arrive. The best part-I'm having it sent to my job, and VZW put my company name instead of my name first on the package.

benzz11

This is what the Verizon rep told me today.

Amy: Hello Bennett if you cancel one order you would have to wait about 4 days until you can reorder because the cancellation has to process.

Looks like I'm better off waiting. I was setting up an order today, and choosing the Matte Black 256GB has a ship-by date of 10/6. I can't believe a cancellation takes FOUR days.

lilyjane07

Totally false. I would call customer service (800-922-0204 or x611 on your phone). Sometimes these chat reps don't know what they're talking about. I was able to cancel an order and process a new one during the same call, only took like 20 minutes.

gpounce26

Awesome benzz11. While it's not the one you originally ordered, I'm glad they were able to help you out somehow.

lilyjane07

BTW, if anyone received their CC charge already but have not received tracking info, there is a way for you to find your tracking info on FedEx without waiting for VZW to update their system.

location ID_00order number

Location ID should be 7 digits (some may have a letter) and order number could be from 4 to 7 digits. After the "_" put as many 0s as necessary with your order number as long as it's 9 digits long. So for example:

xxxxxxx_00xxxxxxx

xxxxxxx_0000xxxxx

It did take about 12 hours after the CC charge for me to be able to track one of my orders. Received notification from credit card company yesterday late afternoon, was able to find tracking info this morning using the above formula. Order has yet to be updated on the website as shipped, still says processing, but I was able to find the tracking number and info from FedEx.com and expected delivery date for Friday.

benzz11

Everyone has been great on here!! Thank you, but I'm not going anywhere just yet. Who knows, they'll probably change my status to November 30th and everyone with the 10/12 date will process tomorrow lol.

lilyjane07

Don't say that! You'll jinx it! Watch, you'll get notification your cc has been charged in just a few hours.

I have to agree, I never thought about joining a forum or following one, but with this pre-order disaster it's been very helpful getting everyone's insight and advice as well as everyone being supportive of each other in this darkest of times. Haha, for real, first world problems LOL.

christhomp

Is this tracking by reference number on FedEx.com? My credit card was charged last night around 10pm ET, but I still haven't received tracking information yet.

benzz11

Yeah it's on FedEx.com. I ordered a new 7+ 256GB MB yesterday, used lilyjane07's method, and I have my tracking information listed. I however, only received a text from Verizon that my order was received and I will receive a text with tracking when it's been shipped. My CC hasn't been charged, and FedEx only shows that the shipping label has been created and will be shipped on Monday the 10th.

Thundr

7+ 128 MB ordered 9/12, ship date 10/12; CC charged last night. UPS tracking received today. No shipping info available yet. Still nothing on the 7+ 128 RG ordered 9/12, ship dates still says 10/12.
