Walked up to the local UPS depot to see if my package was there as they had 'attempted to deliver it' at 10:30 today. Didn't realise that the van was still out on call so the woman at the depot said it wouldnt be back there until 7-8pm or so tonight. It will however be re-delivered tomorrow, so I'm happy with that as it's the initial promised delivery date! And at least they tried today :) I just wasnt in to sign for it.

I'd go again tonight but I live 20 minutes away from the local town, cant be bothered to go back in later, it's chill time now.

Hope everyone else gets their phones soon/tomorrow!

lol, Guys I just returned from the Apple store in Regent street went in to pickup my reserve iPhone 6 128gb space grey.

1.First iPhone opened up in store to check for any faults.
Notice Dust under the screen asked for a replacement unit on the spot.

2.Second unit had around 5 Dead pixels asked for replacement unit again.

3.Third unit had Stuck pixels.

4.Four unit Touch ID doesn't work at all.

5.Fifth unit all works (No Dead Pixels or Stuck Pixels Touch ID works.)

Took me around two hours in the Apple store.

IF true and BIG IF. Your the only person in the world that seems to be having THIS many issues with an iPhone 6. Move away to Samsung or something, do us all a favour.

Thanks.

Anyone know what's going on with the reservation site being down?
Click to expand...

The reservation site goes down 7pm - 12 pm as most Apple Store's are closed during this time, and as reservations are for same day pickup it would be pointless. It will go live at midnight.

Sadly this is also my experience. After 3 6's with dead/stuck pixels I gave up and moved to the 6+. First one fine but scuffs around home button. Second one seems fine. Of the 6's one was a launch day delivery from Apple direct and the other two from Braehead retail store. All the 6's from C3 factory. And yup, again we are doing Apple's QC. After every launch I vow not to be an early adopter. And I always crumble.

Had this issue with iPads before but not phones.

Thank you kindly for your tips. I've been trying to get a reserve phone but Apple have now taken my money yet I'm still on processing items. I've become increasingly annoyed with the system, as they obviously are getting stock into stores, so why not give people who ordered a week in advance of the actual sale day, priority? Thank you so much for taking the time to pass on your tips, I will definitely go the reserve route next time #

Take this with a pinch of salt, mine said it went Dubai .-> Germany -> Dubai -> Germany -> UK

But it didnt 'go back' to any of the countries at all, its just a system error :p
