i dont suppose you know roughly how many they'll be getting there by any chance?

To OP

I didn't realise you can get the credit check done in advance! I suppose this might speed up the purchase on launch day?

Cheers

Hi all.

Nice to see there is a thread here for meets in the O2 Store in Swansea

I am the Branch Manager for the store, now relocated on oxford street incase anyone was wondering where we had gone!

See you all on the 11th

SaschaL · 03:18 AM

See you all there.

I called in the shop the other week to see if I could run a credit check, they said yes, took all the details and said it would be stored on the shop computer so wouldnt have to give all the details.

Luckily i passed the credit check so cannot wait 7.02 (well bit earlier actually) i'll be there!

Went into the shop again to day to see if any more info ...

Sales person said, opening normal time, then said maybe earlier to another customer and then said didint know anything .....confused

When my colleague asked about the problems on the website today and if the shop can help was told to dial CS from his handset....

Hey all - those of you with a 1st Gen iPhone might want to take a look at Mazuma Mobile.

Working 8gb iPhone goes for £140, and broken 8gb goes for £70. Mine was pretty badly destroyed (cracked screen, power button stuck in so it kept rebooting), and they sent me a cheque for £70... helps a little with the new one.

The limited stock (as seen on the O2 Website) is gonna be a bit of a pain, so what time is everyone thinking of queuing? Starbucks opens at 6.30 I believe

Cool for cats, see you all in the morning.

Disclaimer: I no longer work for O2, the views above are my own, and not the views of O2.
