I chatted with support and was told VZW will make Marshmallow available for the Priv no later than September. She also said that they're pushing it out to "some phones" now.

I'm not holding my breath!  Sadly Verizon has disappointed me again and again.  I do feel optimist after hearing this tho.

Formally filed my FCC complaint today I'll leave the link below I encourage you to do the same.

I also reached out to 611 again and I was told that they did release the marshmallow update, however certain IMEI numbers never received it.  I'm still waiting for mine more to come.

I spoke to VZW Support at 611 and they said Verizon is waiting for Blackberry to send marshmallow to them.

Call support and see what answer you get.

RIM is consistent in their statement that they have released it to Verizon several months ago.  I also filed an FCC complaint and go the same "high testing standards" BS.  I called Verizon after receiving that and the rep told me that they haven't received it yet.  It's obviously not that difficult to test and release as ATT and T-Mobile have been doing it consistently.

I saw an update chart for Nougat and it said the Priv was scheduled to get the new Android version on August 22nd. Same day as several Samsung flagship devices.

edit: found it. It's on phonearena at Android 7.0 Nougat release date pegged at August 22nd

Hi Verizon, any updates on this?  I've been happy with your service but if updates are going to be consistently delayed this long I'll consider moving to a different carrier and buy an unlocked phone.  I'm waiting for a few critical performance- and security-related fixes.
