Many thanks

I'm on the old One Plan with unlimited tethering for £15 too.

I locked in to a 12 month contract in May time and will just continue to let it roll after that forever and a day!

Same here. I took it at 12 months last September and I plan on holding on to that £15 sweetness for as long as I physically can.

I don't normally use anywhere near as much data as I have been the last few months but streaming in HD uses quite a bit. They keep claiming that they were built for data, so lets keep downloading and see what happens!

Not sure if anyone will find this helpful but I made a spreadsheet for myself to help me compare UK iPhone 6 [64 and 128GB model] tariffs.

I went for a white 6+ 64Gb and ordered mine on EE through CPW and had my initial confirmation email at 08:04am and then a full acceptance confirmation at 18:38.

It all seemed to go very very smoothly and I was worried it was too smooth until I got my evening full confirmation. When I tried O2 and EE sites were hit and miss even in the afternoon.

Have ordered a Spigen case and screen protector from Amazon for now, should be here on Monday/Tuesday.

Delivery should only take 2 days max, at most it will be next day.

I wouldn't expect it to change until next Wednesday.

See the thing is, I have a great condition phone but I'm missing the charger. I have a lead, just not the wall plug. They surely can't downgrade the price to their lowest bracket for that? I could always give the charger from my iPhone 6 anyway.

The minimum price is for a cracked screen phone!

Yeah I exagerate for narrative purposes. From my experience, i wouldn't be surprised if they offered you less than quoted on their website. if you think your phone is grade A don't be surprised if they offer you grade B :roll eyes: but if you get the price you expect by all means go for it!

Remember it's coming from china, so surely it should dispatch monday/tuesday? And at the depo's by Thursday?

baldspot07 · Sep 13, 2014

Just discover a page on Apple's website that allows you to reserve the phone for instore pick up on Friday 19th.

Having been through all the stores there appears to be no 6 Plus' but several stores have 6's particular if you want a 128GB one, the West Quay in Southampton for example has all colours of iPhone 6 (4.7") in 128GB available to reserve to collect on Friday.

Hope this is of use to somebody.

Nope, pre orders for the UK come from the apple warehouse in Ireland

AVBeatMan · Sep 13, 2014

Just managed to reserve a 128 GB 6 from the Apple Liverpool store. No pluses available in space grey. Are any pluses available on launch day?

hannahjayne · Sep 13, 2014

Went to Apple today to get a new laptop and was chatting to a 'Genius'. He said this was their biggest launch yet, and that pre-orders were all sold out within 15 minutes (wonder if they started the clock when all browsers and the app were working!).

He also said that for the 5S last year there were people camping in the car park and hiding in the big plant pots around the Trafford Centre when they closed it the night before. I absolutely love the idea of this, it's really tickled me.

Could come from anywhere really. What was the last thing you pre-ordered that shipped from Ireland? Ive never had anything from there.

$tevejob$ · Sep 13, 2014

Last three pre orders for me have come direct from China

They'll fly off possibly on Tues/Wed from China, arrive to UK on Thursday and sent off by morning Friday. I remember that how it was when I pre-ordered my iPhone 5.

Since when they have them in Ireland Apple warehouse? I don't remember that in pre-orders, always sent from China from all my pre-orders.

Good point, I don't remember anything being shipped from Ireland to me ever.
