Thread for iPhone 7+ preorders PAST 9/9 and estimated shipping/delivery dates AFTER 9/28

So, the other threads are nice to see how things are progressing for those who preordered on the first day (9/9). And its cool to see those people who are already getting their phones. Smiley Happy  But I feel like the rest of the us "latey late" orderers are getting lost in the discussions because we have a bit more of a wait. So, I wanted to create a discussion for the rest of us so that once the ball gets rolling for us, we can kind of see how things go in terms of changed dates hopefully for the better and maybe earlier shipping dates.

So, if anyone else is interested this space can be for people who preordered 7 pluses AFTER the first day and who are still in the processing stage and have delivery/shipping dates PAST the 9/28 (which seems to be the latest date for 9/9 orders) date. Anyone not ordering the plus but just the 7 is also welcome to post here, but I just know that the debacle with pluses seems to be a bit more a concern for some people so I wanted to have a space for people to share here. But anyone is welcome to post.

So here just share:

Phone(s) Ordered:

Date Ordered:

Current Status:

Expected Ship date:

Optional: And also if you've heard of anyone having luck getting any of the plus models WITHOUT preorder in store recently (whether at Verizon or Apple) which I know is not yet being the case.

Thanks guys! Smiley Happy Smiley Happy

My preorder:

Phone(s) Ordered: 7+ matte/Apple black 256

Date Ordered: 9/12

Current Status: Processing

Expected Ship date: 10/5

No I personally haven't heard of anyone getting a plus in store at either place. Tried myself yesterday at Verizon (knowing I wouldn't but juuuust in case).

I just changed one of my other order from MB 128gb to 256gb earlier today and got my cc charged within 2 hours of the order placed. I didn't use the promotional trade in, but I did have a promotional credit on my account that I couldn't apply to my other order. I'll just have to (im)patiently wait for that phone.

I just spoke with Verizon and now finally know when my iPhone is Shipping!

I ordered the 128 GB Rose Gold 7+ on 9/13 with an expected ship date of 10/12.

She was able to track the order and said it will be shipping on the 10th and I will have it by the 12th. So it isn't coming early at all, but at least it isn't coming late.

I also had an order for a 32GB Matte Black 7+ that I ordered the same date with the same expected shipping and that one arrives today. So it just looks like the rose gold phones arent shipping out early.

Oh I hope the rep was actually telling you the truth, if she was then it gives me a slight ray of hope! I ordered my 128GB Rose Gold  7+ on 9/14 with ESD of 10/12, I'm leaving out of town on the 13th, so hopefully I can get mine by the 12th as well.

I have a feeling she was telling the truth because the dates she told me for the MB Iphone matched exactly when i got notices for that one shipping, etc.

You can do a chat with the reps quick and it seems like they are able to track more specific when your phone is shipping. So maybe they are getting a big stock in and certain order numbers fall into that shipment they are receiving! It's worth a shot Smiley Happy

I think unfortunately they were probably just reading your order details to you. I just called for a status on our order that includes a 128gb rose gold plus ordered on 9/10 and all they could do was tell me the estimated ship date (which of course we already know). The rep said they don't get any advanced info and can only see details after it ships. I hope they do get our but that's only about a week away and following the Reddit thread other people have had their delivery windows pushed back once they reach the day it was supposed to ship. From my understanding the 128gb models were by far the most popular.

I was told the same thing. I believe VZW is expecting a shipment of phones to come in by Friday from Apple and then will distribute to customers then. Hoping I'll be one of the lucky few to get the good news.

There seems to be a shortage of the 128GBs, but the 256s are a-plenty. We canceled my boyfriend's 128 matte black 7+ yesterday and placed a new order for the 256. Received cc charge within 2 hours of placing our new order, and looks like it's shipping today, set to be delivered by Friday. Unfortunately I had to keep my 128GB Rose Gold order since I had used a promotional credit on my device that expired on 9/30. VZW couldn't transfer over the promotional credit, so now I'm stuck waiting...

aubreysouth​ Any updates on your order? I just got off the phone with a rep and she also said my phone was scheduled to ship out on Monday the 10th, with delivery date of the 12th. My card hasn't been charged yet but it's still early so may get charged later today or over the weekend. Just seeing if the reps are actually telling us the truth or if they're just feeding us a story to keep us happy.

I checked my order status and it changed to order received. On my other device when it changed to that status it shipped out like the next day! So I think it looks like they were telling the truth.
