iPhone 7 Plus delivery date and options

[DAVTRE92]

On 9/19/16 I ordered an iPhone 7 Plus online through Verizon, with an expected delivery date of 11/9. There has been no news or movement in the date, and my order always says 'Processing'. Would it be quicker to cancel the order and order an unlocked one through Apple? Their website lists 3-4 weeks for delivery. I'm fearful that any day I'll get a notice from Verizon changing the delivery date to further away. Does anyone have any thoughts or opinions?

Have you experienced the delivery date being moved back?

[DAVTRE92]

Have you seen the delivery date be pushed back or extended on recent orders?

Some have, some haven't, I ordered my jet black, 128gb, 7 plus on 10/7, edd 11/30, no movement here, from another forum on mac rumors, they are shipping orders with an edd 10/26, so about two weeks early

It seems that they are more worried about getting the MB and JB phones out versus other colors. I've seen very few posts about people getting RG, Gold, and silver, mainly just the people who got right in on pre-order day. My ESD is 10/19 (hasn't changed since order date) and it's so close, but it sucks when you see other customers, and mainly MB, JB iphones getting sent out right away. 😕

My order of a MB on 9/19 is still not in, and still 11/09 expected delivery...

It seems that way on Mac Rumors, I've seen nothing but MB going out, I think it depends on order date, but it doesn't seem like verizon has an actual que when it comes to shipping. There have been people who ordered the same day as me and got their phones earlier.  When I talked to a rep she made it sound like my phone was chilling in the warehouse waiting for the 10/19 date. Hopefully you won't have to wait much longer, it is just an estimate so you might get it sooner.

Time will tell, we can only guess... Thanks for sharing, and good luck!!
